Walking down South Cameron street (Windsor, Canada) at 1 or 2 am on a warm late Spring or early Autumn night listening to Scandinavian metal.
<3
Since I live in England I have no idea what South Cameron street looks like, but this, holy crap this. Maybe throw in a burger.
It's a long stretch of road that follows a little-used railroad track to the right and a forest to the left in the middle of a large town. Very serene street.
That sounds perfect. What kind of Scandinavian metal are we talking here? I'm thinking some early Dark Tranquility, maybe some Kalmah.
Damn good bands. But it's primarily CoB, In Flames, Korpiklaani, and Nightwish. I cannot get enough Melodic Metal.
Excellent choices. Unless you're talking about current In Flames, in which case I'll have to disagree. Throw on some Clayman or Jester Race though, and I'm there.
Escapist's have such good taste in music.
It's the demographic. Metalheads are disproportionately-represented on this site. And it is AWESOME!
I'm not as against the new In Flames stuff as most other people. It's not as good, sure, but it doesn't deserve the ire it gets. Think about it this way: In Flames on their worst night can still sing circles around many bands on their best nights. Same goes for Nightwish's Dark Passion Play and Metallica's St. Anger: not great, but still good.
...GnR's The Spaghetti Incident, on the other hand, is definitely as bad as everyone says it is.
