Not sure how I missed this.
Album came out a couple of days ago, so imma track it down.

For SOME REASON, I have also missed their 2018 album release.
Not sure how that happened.
Guess I get a lot of Maverick this week....

Nice...

 

That's a cool cover.
They took everything heavy from the original and made it heavier.
Added fills and changed it up just enough.
I'm not a huge fan of female vocals as a rule, particularly when covering a song originally sung by a male, but she nailed it.

It means you need to be more tolerant to understand music/vocals like this. But that's okay. We are not the same.

You like Rap? Country & Western? Death Metal? Grunge? Hip Hop? Classical? K-Pop? J-Pop? Etc?
If the answer in no to any of those, you could apply your own argument to yourself

Yeah, you're right. I'm not into that one at all.

That's because it's shit. Perfect example of a song that has been taken to a place that it shouldn't have been.
They're like "let's cover a pop song, and give it a metal spin, but try to keep the pop vibe"
Weird

Vocals are AC/DCish at times, but here's why it isn't an ACDC copy, it's really good.
What AC/DC could be doing if they moved an inch from their formula.

Anyway, I love it. Only listened twice and got off both times

Bad Trip - was flicking around Netflix and this one popped up. Boring Sunday afternoon so we whacked it on.
Pretty fucking funny. Cross between Borat and Jackass, with some really funny moments.
Just go with the stupidity and you'll have fun.

Godzilla Vs Kong - Pretty much what I expected, perhaps exceed my low expectations. Cross between Alien Vs Predator and Pacific Rim. Just don't think about the plot AT ALL. I mean every part of the plot is a plot hole lol

Look forward to this.

I'm with Leykis here.
You'd hope that those more well off contribute to those who are not, but there should not be an obligation to do so.
You can't just increase taxes based on personal morals.

I really don't know how the tax system works in the US, but over here, those who earn more, pay a higher percentage of tax.
Taxable income          Tax on this income
0 – $18,200                 Nil
$18,201 – $37,000      19c for each $1 over $18,200
$37,001 – $90,000      $3,572 plus 32.5c for each $1 over $37,000
$90,001 – $180,000    $20,797 plus 37c for each $1 over $90,000

Great start toi the season.
Swans win and Collingwood fall apart

Bang was great. I got 8 keepers off that.

No real comment from me.

Thank christ that when the election ended, so did pretty much most US news.
Australia doesn't really seem to care that much any more.
We had our time (like the rest of the world) to take a ride with the Trump side show, but then the politics just got boring again.

Taxes, immigration, probably health care, gun rights will be back soon.

Since Perth was mentioned, it should be noted that the leader of Western Australia was just re-elected in a MASSIVE majority.
This dude is obviously pretty well regarded by his people for the way he handled the covid shit.
They are saying that the chances of him being able to lose power at the next election in 4 years will be pretty remote because of the massive majority he currently holds.

But yeah, one thing missing from the US election was talk about the actual issues lol
It was all Twitter, and "will Biden live through his term" and riots, and black lives, etc, etc
I guess that's the same everywhere, but you guys really got it on steroids, and nobody seemingly cared too much about the real issues that you discuss going into an election

I'm liking this one more quickly that most of their older stuff so far.
Saw that Gonna Be My Girl clip today and I like the song, but I felt like I was watching Michael Bolton.
Yeah, I know they are older but sometimes it's better to imagine the song sung rather than see the reality...

Is this heavy metal enough to make this thread?
 

Here is the start of my best off BJ folder.
Based on this, 7800 really doesn't rate for me...

I love Wanted. 

Me too.

I can see how some will have grown tired of it being overplayed etc, but it's one of the few songs I'd pick to demonstrate what a metal ballad is.

Well, you saved me the trouble of quoting you.
Shit, I couldn't be fucked arguing about this anyway.

What I will argue about id that I was disrespectful.
All my posts are unedited.
Please quote any part of them where I disrespected you or your opinions...

You must've had a chuckle when "Ozzy Ostrich" made an appearance. 

I did.
My wife and daughter watched this with me, and I said "holy fuck, Ozzy Ostrich is in this, was wondering where he ended up.

My daughter loved it, I knew she would dig it when it started because she lives movies like this.
My wife I wasn't so sure about but she dug it also.
That said, she love Nic Cage, but more the Captain Corelli's Mandolin or National Treasure version, rather than the Ghost Rider version.

What views?
All I have seen is "you're wrong" without anything to back that up.

If you want to just go with you're gut feeling, then cool, good luck.

And the ebola reference, while true, was just a fun jab, and you know it

Willy's Wonderland.

Cool quirky movie. Nic Cage battles human soul possessed animatronics.
Hope he wasn't paid per spoken word in this one

My only advice is watch when you are relaxed, destressed and are able to turn off your brain and roll with the movie.

I don't do the flu vaccine either.

I also think this comment is very disputable mate. Completely wrong, in fact.

Dispute away.

I'll start.

Coronavirus vaccines can be one of four types.
Vector vaccines, mRNA vaccines, protein subunit vaccines, and nucleic acid vaccines.
Vector, MRNA and nucleic acid vaccines act in pretty much the same way.
But in the end, they all stimulate an immune response to the antigen, the protein found on the surface of the virus

The influenza vaccine is a vector vaccine. 

But they are all put under the same rigorous testing (in this case, rigorous worldwide extreme testing, and the side effects of each are comparable to each other and also comparable to those of the traditional flu vaccine.

The Ebola vaccine is also a vector vaccine. If you're in an area full of Ebola, I would certainly suggest giving up on any vaccine phobias and take it.

Everyone is starting to sound more like Def Lep.
No real issues with that, I was one of the few that dug the last Tesla album but everyone else complained that it was Def Tesla.
Pixilated album cover in the clip was a little try hard. Not sure people are holding their breath that much waiting to see it lol

I really couldn't care less if people choose to get vaccinated or not.
What I will say is that if you take a flu vax happily, and then say covid vax is dangerous or whatever, then you have a problem.
They are basically the same types of vaccines. yes, I know corona is not the flu, but the way the vaccines are developed and tested etc is the same. If anything, corona has undergone far far more testing that usual.

lol drummer sometimes looks like he's yawning when doing background vocals

My 21 year old daughter let the c word slip the other night watching Below Deck.
It was justified

Nice song
