Sevendust is another great band, love their stuff, hope they put out some new songs.

Singer was a good friend of Layne's.

I often wondered who copied who's singing style...

Great to hear the man cleaning up his life, he has a daughter that I know of.

I have lots of Cold's music and have had my own Pandora station dedicated to them for like 15 years.

Another band that is underrated in my eyes of the same genre is Flaw. Kind of like Korn but different.

Also like lots of Seether.

I liked Cold at the time, but man that guy was not a showman at all.

He spent most of the show huddled on the side of the stage.

Sevendust kicked some ass though.  That was the high-point of their career.

BTW just watched Cold's Quiet Now...

Just fantastic love that shit! Sounds like Scooter has his voice back. That one newer album years back he just didn't sound right.

Heavy to a ballad they are amazing... .  Not enough is a flaw song I've been listening to the last few weeks...Scooter is better now I think. It usually goes the other way when they get clean...

(02-08-2022, 11:52 PM)Nate (formerly eliminate08) Wrote: Same here with Flaw, they are great at slowing down and then just crunch the hell out of a song with heavy drums and a 
fantastic singer. Great band at making stops and transitions during songs. Very smooth singer, his mother was a professional
opera singer that committed suicide when he was a kid.

I am sure you know that. Just some more music tid bits.

Yeah, Scooter sounds great unlike lots of singers who clean up. Lots just lose it. Staley never got his voice back. At least 
not to its best where he wailed.

He just got out of rehab before the unplugged and had to get high to perform and was nodding off and still nailed the whole ***** thing perfectly.. I hate morons like sully from Godsmack who try to imitate his voice. No one can do it.. AIC got me through a dark time and addiction. They always hold a special place to me...

"Bleed," is still a phenomenal track, a wonderful (not in the, "happy," sense ) song full of emotion. Sevendust is awesome too, never got into them though. "Angel's Son," is another superb tune.

band hence the name Godsmack that came from an AIC song. Good for you getting through addiction Tony, that is rough stuff 
I thank God I never really went through. I have been a drunk is all but now I am just a brewskie drinker who has a good time.

Been a blast hearing about you partying with Ben Burnsley and you liking the same music as I do.

Been really liking Adelitas Way lately, "Drifting" is a cool song and these guys are out of Vegas which is local to me.

I will tell you my generation had some good music compared to today. I just don't care for any of the acts this year.
