I know plenty of people who really like both bands alot.

A7X has heavier shit than you think. You must be thinking that Afterlife is as heavy as they get or some shit. Those first 2 albums are much heavier than Godsmack/Disturbed/FFDP/Manson.

And lets not forget Godsmack is playing Uproar, and they played Mayhem last year. Disturbed has also played both. I can see it being this next year. A7X/Manson or Tool/A7X.

Other than Tool playing, I totally agree with this. A7X has a lot of songs that are legitimately heavy (even on the last album look up "God Hates Us"). Granted, I'll agree they used to be much heavier, but they're definitely capable of headlining Mayhem. They still play a solid amount of heavy songs live too (I know they've done Second Heartbeat and Chapter Four recently, and they pretty much close every show with Unholy Confessions). Obviously, they'll have a new album out by next year though, so we'll see what happens.

Also I love A7X and LoG so that would make me happy.

I was an A7X fan back in the era before City of Evil was made. I'm not as big of a fan now. Godsmack/Disturbed blur the lines between heavy metal & hard rock. I think A7X is more hard rock, especially since 2008. Not saying they don't have some metal songs or metal moments. They won't play much from their heavier albums in a one hour set. I think A7X & 5FDP will headline Uproar next summer. Unless SoaD, Korn and Rob Zombie each turn down a headlinng slot on Mayhem Fest.

Also I think Tool is a long shot. I hear they ask for more $ than SoaD and that Maynard hates playing on touring festivals like Ozzfest, the old Lollapalooza tours, etc.

SLAYER.

Dude, it was great meeting you in Dallas (I was the guy in the Eyehategod shirt with my hair tied back) - that bag you gave me to carry my shit survived the Anthrax pit and the pipe I bought that day didn't crack when I fell down...twice. Thanks for that man, I really appreciate it!

A7X/LoG/Mastodon would be awesome. Thats what I hope to see.

Yea I'd say you have the same chance of Rammstein playing that you have for TOOL playing which is 0%.

detuned · #**1158** 08-07-2012, 05:19 AM

rammstein is nowhere near as unrealistic as tool

This, but that's not really saying much.

Not really.

Rammstein and TOOL are in the same case with the only exception being stage show.

I don't see Mayhem using TOOL's huge light show nor would either band take the money they could offer or the hour or so set they would have.
