Cannibal Man Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Faith No More! Â I really hope they make some sort of attempt at new music if they've decided to keep playing. I fucking love them, but to have them just going through the same 30 songs since 2009 is a bit disappointing given what they're all capable of.

Rey_Piste Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) Babymetal have been announced for Sonisphere. If you've not heard them before it's death metal mixed with J-pop sang by 3 teenage girls. I like the music, but Maximum the Hormone do the same kind of thing, but better. Here's their song Give Me Chocolate. Edited April 8, 2014 by Rey_Piste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted April 8, 2014 Author Paid Members Share Posted April 8, 2014 Babymetal is the kind of thing that could only have been created in Japan, god knows how that'll go down at Sonisphere. It's very very wrong but it's stupidly catchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I want to go now. Hadn't heard of Maximum The Hormone so will check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I'd go mainly for Babymetal to be honest, there are a few other bands (and Gary Numan) I like but they're spread too thinly around the three days. I'll wait and see if they do a normal gig or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey_Piste Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I want to go now. Hadn't heard of Maximum The Hormone so will check it out. http://youtu.be/POCNHSknjYc this is a little song that part Metal part pop punk with the catchy title of chu chu lovely muni muni mura mura purin purin boron nururu rerorero. One of the guitarists looks like a Japanese Dimebag. He can be seen clearly in the purple shirt in this vid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 http://goldengods.metalhammer.co.uk/vote/best-uk-band  Metal Hammer have their awards coming up, looking through the categories and I don't know who half of the bands are. I don't think I've ever been this far out of the metal loop before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted April 10, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted April 10, 2014 KISS go into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame tonight. This is some pro wrestling shit we have. The four original members were slagging each other off this morning. Every insult from "anti-Semitic" to "drug addict" to "sell out" has been used recently, so seeing them in a room together for the first time in over a decade will be quite something. Hopefully I dont awake to the news Paul Stanley has clapped out at the airport on the way home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted April 14, 2014 Author Paid Members Share Posted April 14, 2014 Metallica have started doing that 'By Request' thing, currently getting a DVD of a show in Bogota, other than airing a new song which was a bit of a surprise this is how the setlist read:  Setlist: 01. Blackened 02. Master Of Puppets 03. Welcome Home (Sanitarium) 04. Fuel 05. The Unforgiven 06. The Lords Of Summer (New Song) 07. And Justice For All ... 08. Sad But True 09. Fade To Black 10. Orion 11. One 12. For Whom The Bell Tolls 13. Battery 14. Nothing Else Matters 15. Enter Sandman  Encore: 16. Creeping Death 17. Ride The Lightning song chosen by the vote via text message during the concert. 18. Seek & Destroy  well, if i attend Sonisphere and im thinking about it, i'd hope for something a bit different to that. The 'By Request' thing is a decent idea for a band like Metallica with the range of material they have to chose from, but if Metallica did a regular show the setlist would basically look the same as what people requested...i know it's the more popular end of their material, but come on!

CTXRussomark Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Yeah, that doesn't really look all that different to the setlists they've played when I've seen them live. What's the list like people can choose from? Is it literally any song from their catalogue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted April 14, 2014 Author Paid Members Share Posted April 14, 2014 i think so, there may be a few exceptions but it's pretty much all of it from what i can gather. I read an interview with Kirk Hammett where he spoke of hoping the fans would vote for some unsung gems for the band to play....the fans are blowing it!

Harvey Dent Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) Yeah, it's literally any song they've ever put out in a list and you can tick 17 boxes. The problem is most of these shows are big festival headline slots so unfortunately for the more hardcore fan it's going to to be 99% what they play all the time anyway becuase that's what the more casual audience wants to hear. I doubt most festival going folk who see Metallica know songs like Frayed Ends of Sanity or Trapped under Ice exist, let alone would choose them over Enter Sandman or Master of Puppets. You can hear a studio demo of Lords of Summer on YouTube, I like it a lot. Edited April 15, 2014 by Harvey Dent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
