The most comfortable tshirt I own is a Panzer Division Marduk one I bought at a merch table at Milwaukee Metalfest 2002, don’t even know the brand. It’s pretty beat up, barely wear it anymore, but those Euro shirts are super soft. Any devils remember the merch guy that used to be at all the big shows? Tall skinny German guy with gray hair. I ran into him at a fest in Vegas a few years ago and totally recognized him and got a picture lol
@@aegisraven1284 Oh, actually it was 1997 man -ha. I first heard Gorefest 'Fear' on the Death Is Just The Beginning 3 compilation in the summer of 1996 when I was 13 -ha. Things were much slower on being able to hear certain bands back then (my brother bought 'Erase' in the summer of 1997) and we both lovec it. Both Gorefest and Benediction became two of my favorite bands in early 1998 after I got the Death Is Just The Beginning 2 and 3 VHS video compilations from Relapse Records. Gorefest 'False' was a favorite album of mine for years!!
@@oscarg212 Yeah man!! Drummer Ed Warby was such so good (he does some insanely fast blastbeats too). Check out his old thrash band called Elegy 'Elegant Solution' 1988 demo sometime...the drumming is great (as expected!!)
Hey J-Dawg. Well since you keep mentioning that you might have missed some questions I'll repeat a question I asked months ago I think, and I can't remember you talking about it, but would be curious to hear your opinion. What's your stance on self-destruction, violence, addiction etc. in metal? Integral element or just stupid excesses or none of the above? Do you think some bands with complete psychos in the lineup would have been as good even if the dudes involved hadn't been complete nutters?
My reply to the Tshirt question is Calvin Klein. Probably can’t work due to the cost or sizes, but I love me some regular CK undershirts. Soft. American Apparel has super soft Ts, too. But Gildan is so classic when it comes to band Ts. I almost expect it when I buy a T from a show. It’d be sick to up the quality, tho. Charge more for premium fabrics. Next time you’re Downtown, stop buy a Gucci store and go feel one of their Ts. Super soft. Soft as an Italian’s pubes.
Oh my.... never thought the topic would turn to T-shirt brands, but it did. How VERY metal! J-Dawg ever put on a "Next Level" t-shirt? I think those are the best out there currently, the fabric quality great and consistent and they always fit just right and they don't chafe your _nips_ either.
What’s the deal with all the spam bots in the comments? Not sure if it does any good, but I’ve just been hitting the “report comment as spam” button. Splatterhouse and GSR are great btw \m/
GHOST: I get the hate, but I do like them a LOT. I also get that they are not metal; that's fine. They can be a nice break from extreme music, then I go right back to my Last Days of Humanity, Devourment, and Exhumed. Plus, even though Ghost is not a metal band, Tobias is cool in my book for doing Repugnant. I really enjoy all of the Repugnant music I own, ESPECIALLY the 'Spawn of Pure Malevolence' Demo cassette.
For me personally Comfort colors is great as well as Hanes, personally regular gildan is incredibly uncomfortable and the shirts shrink so easily, hate when bands use gildan cotton :/
Ghost will always be the band I just don’t get it. What is so impressive by them? What ‘‘em I missing here? The shirts they use at one hour tees in Chicago is some of the best shirt I ever own. Very soft and stretchy. Fits great for a 600 pound fatty like me.
Some ghost albums are good, one is amazing, two are garbage.. well written songs generally but it's not metal so not much point discussing it here. A million times more talent than crapknot and shitcorn though.but not metal just like those bands.
@@deathtomichaelknagge4397 yep that's what they were going for so....it's not like ghost is trying to be metal I don't get why supposed metal fans keep talking about ghost lol
JDawg. What do you think of the black/death metal band from Arizona called nigrummagia? I have their EP superlative darkness and It's one of my favorite releases
you mentioned that king Fowley called somebody gay for wearing ride the lightning and he wears kiss also what do you think of the last 3 terrorizer albums , yeah its a given that the first one sucked shit
What’s up J dawg! Thanks for the vid! Q: Any thoughts on Tchort and the usbm band Masochist? I think they fuckin rip and and he had a very distinct sounding vocals. I dig his other projects as well. I know some of the other members thought he was just a piece of shit😁
??? I'm surprised that u consider Ghost to be metal Big Devil. I'm shocked that u mentioned them alongside CC and Deicide. They're more like Foo Fighters or Hellacopters, or Scooby-Doo chase music. ??? Question marks to draw JDawg's attention. ???
I don't know man...after seeing videos of Maryland Death Fest, not sure if I would enjoy the atmosphere as much than back in the day (no phones or blue-haired Lefties ruining the show -ha). I'm not an elitist but I kinda liked it when death metal was actually an underground genre...the overall scene seems noticeably diluted these days with hipters and punks showing up at metal shows because they have nothing better to do (just an veteran observation). Milwaukee Metal Fest 1998 (Suffocation, Cryptopsy, Crowbar, Deaden, Incantation, Lividity, Waco Jesus, Emperor, Mayhem, Bloodstorm, Six Feet Under, Meshuggah, Death, etc!! The Central Illinois Metal Fest 1998 also!! (Fleshgrind, Deaden, Lividity, Corpse Vomit, Embalm, Evil Incarnate, Insatanity, Internal Bleeding, Disfigured, Haruspex, Waco Jesus, Mortal Decay, etc!!). And the Death To False Metal Fest 2015 (Nucleus, Cardiac Arrest, Embalmer, Solstice (FL), Disma, and Master!! One of the best shows ever!! Best club shows... so many good ones man!! Deicide 1998, Triptykon 2010, Type O Negative/Celtic Frost 2007, Evilution 1998, Sadistic Intent 2017, Demolition Hammer 2016, Slayer 2002, Failure 2015, Gary Numan 2014, Crowbar 2016, Esoteric (UK) 2013, Helmet 2009, Prong 2017, Fear Factory (Demanufacture show 2017), Godflesh 2014 + 2016 + 2018, Suffocation 2018, Obituary 2018, etc!!
I like both but between my job and the fact that i usually go alone, I just don't see many shows. I never know when local bands are playing because I fucking hate Facebook and Twitter. I'm just an angry old man that isn't comfortable with most humans.
I have the trifixion tat also and nobody at my job says anything as I know there are a few bastards of christ working there, and as for ghost like you always say if you want to like shit sucker bands thats fine but honestly I dont get what the music has anything to do with metal just because of the inverted crosses and outfits , if air supply or fleetwood mac wore inverted crosses would that make them metal?
I actually put on the local 'pop-metal' radio station here in Peoria, IL at work sometimes just to keep an ear out and study the current trends and turds being flushed though the music industry -ha. I have to say Ghost is actually one of the more interesting bands (as far as mainstream crap goes). I would never buy their album but it 'at least' has a 'borderline' gothic influence to their sound (at times) and some of the members have roots in the Swedish Death Metal scene (Repugnant). I would say Ghost isn't great...but is much more listenable than Stonesour, Slipknot, Five Finger Death Punch, Shinedown, Seether, and all these annoying fem-rock bands like The Pretty Reckless, etc. Ok, I've spent too much time talking about Ghost today -haha!!
The first Ghost record sounds like a mix of old heavy metal/hard rock and stoner rock from what I remember and it wasn't bad. The second album wasn't as good but not the worst I haven't really bothered to hear anything after that. The little I have heard of newer stuff seems like it's gone further in the pop direction they were heading in on the second album.
Still don’t get the love for ghost. I have tried on several occasions and tobias voice is just annoying and the tunes are boring. Is there any band you make the effort to see every time theirs in town?
@@aegisraven1284 everyone that asks me if I like them will try to sell me with that haha if prince was satanic I would still not listen to his records haha
@@sadekx5251 Yeah, what is 'unfortunately' considered metal these days is pretty sad...it all just sounds like the same 'industry songwriting team' writes the music for these bands. I would literally die of boredom if I was somehow forced to join those kinds of bands -haha.
