Yo Jackson, you're right in saying that Killswitch Engage are a fucking terrible band and a cancer and all that, but metalcore is already a thing of the past for the most part. Deathcore is the trendy plague fucking up metal right now, metalcore was fucking it up more when I was first getting into metal in like 2003 and 2004. All the major metalcore bands have either dropped off the face of the earth or changed their style enough to not suck anymore (obviously excluding KSE). I'd rather hear a shitty Killswitch song than any deathcore song any day.

KSE is one of the 3 good bands on mayhem this year. Hopfully next year mayhem will do it right

I want to see Slayer really bad but I just found out what a ticket to this show for the VA Beach date will cost me.


$49.50 Ticket
+
$6.00 Parking
+
$0.25 Charity
+
$13.00 Ticket Fee
+
$4.95 Ticket Tax
=
$73.70 For short Behemoth and CC sets and an hour of Slayer. Fuck that shit. The Slayer set looks awesome but I'll save my money for some shows this fall that aren't saturated with core junk and freakin Manson.

On a side note, I know ticketmaster charges you a BS "service fee" but at least that wording sounds better than LiveNation's freakin "ticket fee". Basically says let me charge you $13 (!) to have the privilege of purchasing something.

Slayer better do a US headlining tour for World Painted Blood.

people get mad at your comments because you act like your statement is a fact and not an opinion.

I'm so sick of this, I got up early on a sunday, drove 20 minutes to and from BART and paid $8.50 for a round trip to save $20 on a pair of tickets just for the principal of saying fuck you to Ticketmaster/Live Nation.
Trent Reznor was right about this whole thing, since they've merged I've noticed that fees have gone up also. You might notice now that Ticketmaster redirects you to Live Nation online for many shows.
