Yea it should happen again, we usually just wait until one is completed before we take names for another Comp.

but if you guys are going ahead by yourselves then carry on,

Gettin' kinda curious as to what journeyman thought of the discs I sent him. Mine weren't NEARLY as diverse as the ones he sent me...

All of these songs are new to me and I liked everyone. I now have some new additions to my want list. This is Disc 1 of 3.

1. Vulture (The Netherlands)– Easier To Lie - Hatred at first sight
The vocals are cool and the guitar is straight ahead metal with a slight Judas Priest influence.

2. Xentrix (England)– For Whose Advantage? - Questions
I can hear the Metallica influence. Progressive. The bass really pops out. This is one for the want list.

3. Fatt-Bey (Finland)– Birthday - Bloody Mary and the Tooth Fairy
Nice. The guitar sounds great and the vocals are rough.

4. Darklin Reach (USA) – Where Evil Dwells - Impact and Elegance
Megadeth influence, and yeah it’s really good. The guitar is awesome. Sounds like it is from the 80’s, which is cool with me.

5. Amnesia (England)– Unknown Entity - Memories of Me
I’m thinking Annihilator. The guitar is very addictive.

6.Depressive Age (Germany)– First Depression - Beyond Illusions
Like the vocals and the guitar is killer. Progressive.

7. Mordred (USA)– Fool's Game - State of Mind
Wow..Good vocals. Real catchy.

8. Channel Zero (Belgium)– Channel Zero - No light (at the end of the tunnel)
Like the vocal style and love the guitar.

9. Panic (USA)– Epidemic - Morbid Curiosities
Speed is good. Great bass guitar. I can hear the Metallica influence.

10. Dead On (USA)– Dead On – The Matador’s Nightmare
Good. Sounds like thrash from the 80’s. The bass is up front.

11. Kr’uppt (USA)– The Spunion Field - Womb of Decay
Thrash with an anthrax influence

12. Sacrificial (Denmark)– Forever Entangled - I fall in temptation
Thrash from the 90’s with kicking double bass drums.

13. Stygian (USA)– Planetary Destruction - Behind Death’s Door
Good. Thrash with some power.

14. Su Ta Gar (Spain)– Hortzak Estuturik - Nazka
Yeah this is good. Interesting vocals.

15. Rosicrucian (Sweden)– Silence - Column of grey
Crushing guitar thrash with a fast whammy solo. I was quite surprised to hear the piano, bass, and classical guitar piece. Don’t care for the vocals but like the song.

16. The Mist (Brazil)– The Hangman Tree - God of Black and White Images
Good song, but the vocals do wear on you.

Havent seen Ensiferums review yet!Hint! Hint!

How about this: next time we do this, all the people that didn't do reviews this time, or only posted the tracklists of the CDs they received, get a permanent ban from future swaps? It might not seem like too much of a hassle burning a CD, but I have very few MP3s on my PC. That means I had to pull out each individual CD and rip the track, which is a pain. If the person I sent discs to didn't review the songs, or posted some half-assed tracklist, I'd be a little irked.

I don't think those people should allowed to participate in future swaps. Call me an a-hole, I don't care. Haha.

I agree with this statement.

If it's too hard for you to type a review, then go back and play your Xbox and let the adults swap CDs.

Hey dont bring playing Xbox into this! But I do agree if you cant take 5 minutes to write a review of the cd then they shouldnt be allowed to join in the next one. Luckily im not like eyesore and have all my cds on my external hard drive as mp3s.

How durable are they? Do you bring it to work and such?

Should I even ask that?

LoL nah cant really do anything with a external hard drive delivering mail at the post office. But I think they are pretty durable. What do you want to do with it use it as a frisbee? haha. I did drop mine not too long ago but luckily nothing happened to it. my 500 GB was pretty reasonable too I think it was around like $200 its a Western Digital. Usually Circuit City has good deals on external hard drives so keep a watch for them its definetly worth it.

I'm looking to buy a TB drive. I could rip my entire collection to it.

I was just wondering because I might be tempted to bring it to work with me every now and again. But some externals in the past just weren't durable enough to be moved around a lot.

Whats the difference with a TB drive ?

You can get 500 gig ex for around $140 now days!

Wargod48

Your cdrs should be on the way soon Phoenix

and ghost - hopefully yours are to you now as they have not shown up at my house again

Weird. I picked up Ice Cold July on my pawn shopping mission last week. Had no clue what it was about. Listened to it today and was impressed. Just now, I see this thread about them! WEEEEEIIIIIRRRRDDDD!!!!
