I have never had the response of "neat" whenever I say I listen to Slayer.
That's a new one.  How heavy do I go?  Well for short periods of time I can
handle some Napalm Death...but most of the other death metal has no appeal
to me.  Too fast to be useful, and the lyrics are downright stupid.  About
the other bands, I have listened to them all...but I can't recall any song
by Flaw.  My favorites on that list would be Mr. Zombie, Pantera, Static-X,
AWK, and Sevendust.  Other current faves are Fear Factory, KMFDM, and Type 0
Negative.

Music isn't a rational enjoyment...we like what we like.  No contradiction
there.  Although I might have to cut down on the Slayer and the Lords of
Acid if I am elected Deacon in my church.

We are going to have to agree to disagree about this...the teacher has yet
to be bettered by the pupil.  Joe is simply more incredibler* in my opinion.
If you have a good home theater spend the 15 bucks or so to get the DVD Live
in San Francisco.  Get the volume past 30% and make your mind happy.  Joe is
so technically perfect, I still have a hard time believing he plays that
well.

My list of guitar masters are Hendrix, Vaughn, Satriani, and Carlos (you may
call him Mr. Santana)  The world is a better place because of them.

New cool guitar orientated rock groups?  The Darkness, and Los Lonely Boys.

Long hair no more,
Matthew Bos
