RATM preparing new material
It would be pretty interesting if they did record something new. It probably won't be like back in the day (when they were pretty edgy and had a lot to say for themselves). I don't like anything after the first album, though.

I didn't mean anything with it, just a bad joke. I never really cared for Metallica, I listened to some things, but it always sounds so, I don't know, flat or something. I always had a thing for that gig they had with Michael Kamen, S&M. Mm, yeah. It seems as if every Metallica album [including Death Magnetic] suffers from horrible mastering, making it sound flat. Well-produced metal albums are hard to come by as a rule, but Metallica albums are just flat and loud. Particularly bad offenders. The Smiths - The Queen is Dead

What are you listening to right now!?
I always thought it was trash. I'm listening to that 1st symphonie by Alfred Schnittke again. That's the only album I can stand by them, to be honest. 'Favourite' probably gives off the impression that I think it's awesome, but I honestly don't. It's average at best, but better than the rest of their discography. Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin - Gwyneth I checked out this band because I heard them namedropped, and you can't forget a name like that.

Metallica - ...And Justice for All [album] Been a while since I last listened to this. I think it's probably my favourite Metallica record, actually. Although that's not hard, seeing how most of Metallica is garbage.

50 albums I think you should own.
Brilliant choices. A varied and interesting list. I'm no big fan of Pantera but I sure think Cowboys from Hell is a [bleep]ing rockin' album.

Should There Be Uniforms In Schools?
I love how Range_This brings his liberalism into everything. As for me: Uniforms are fine. You're at school. You're there to learn, not to do as you want to.

Different.
I'm not that different. I fit in amongst people and I can have fun. It's just that I much prefer the comfort of my own home rather than forcing myself into unnecessary socialisation.

Saddest Song?
I've always found Type O Negative really.. weird. I like Love You to Death though.

Songs that make you CRINGE
A Momentary Lapse of Reason will always be the best Pink Floyd album.

Facebook runs very slow, ways to speed it up?
Yeah, if it was less forced, I would have much less of an issue with it.

GPU memory clock and memory clock data rate...
Joe: Intel processors in general tend to run quite hot, at least, from my experience with them. I haven't used anything newer than a Pentium 4 HT though, so don't quote me on anything newer than that. im1knight, the golden rule of overclocking is this: never overclock a prebuilt. A lot of prebuilt computers have limitations to prevent them being overclocked, and also, you're not familiar with the hardware if you buy a prebuilt computer. I'm not calling you stupid or anything, but it would be wise not to overclock a prebuilt computer. I'm not an overclocking expert (I've never done it myself) but OldJoe seems to have some experience with overclocking and such. He would be a good person to ask if you're intent on overclocking. I still don't advocate it at all.

Facebook runs very slow, ways to speed it up?
HURR DURR GET FIREFOX. The evangelical attitude of some of you is getting on my nerves. Just because you use Linux, use Firefox or whatever doesn't make you a geek, a techie or anything. Most of the time you're just self-righteous and pretentious. 1) It would be helpful if you did as Dracion1 said and took a speed test. This would determine whether or not your Internet as a whole is laggy, or (and answering part of my second question), if it's just Facebook. 2) Is this problem isolated to Facebook alone or do you have problems with any other sites that make heavy use of scripting for applications, players and such? Other examples would be YouTube and possibly other social networking sites. I can't really think up any more examples at the moment, but if anyone else can, I would be most grateful. 3) Ping Facebook. On either machine, go to Start > Run, and type cmd[Caution: Executable File]. If you've never used cmd before, don't be put off - type: ping www.facebook.com and either take a screenshot of your cmd window or post your results here. If it looks like mine: you are fine. Don't worry if your ping isn't the same as mine; I live in the United Kingdom, and I think Facebook is hosted in America. 4) Just an addendum - are your machines connecting to the Internet through your router/modem using an ethernet cable, or are you using wifi? Just out of curiosity really, because if you use wifi, do you have any connection issues? I'm currently on wifi and I have a few problems with my router's wifi dropping out, but if you have a strong signal and a consistent connection, then you shouldn't worry. 5) Addendum #2: if you do all of this, and it's still slow, do as JoeDaStudd has said and post a screenshot of the specs of both your machines. Hope I could be of any assistance.

Pirate Bay founders lose trial
Me. I still buy albums on both CD and vinyl. TPB is a public tracker, therefore bad, and also, I don't torrent enough to really worry.

You won't really get any better than Wolves in the Throne Room for what they do. You would probably enjoy Drudkh though. Nadril knows more about black metal than me, but I thought I would drop that suggestion anyway. Animal Collective - Peacebone I remember hearing Animal Collective for the first time at 14. I hated it. However, since Merriweather I've liked them somewhat more. Not a favourite by any means, but I like to listen to them once every couple of months or so. At 14 I was also getting into Neutral Milk Hotel and a few other bands, for example, The Mountain Goats. I don't listen to much of that music anymore though.

Life would be better if people didn't jump to conclusions so easily - myself included.

Songs that make you CRINGE
Bro. I've heard The Script every day since they topped the charts here or whatever they did. At first, it was alright, but the more I suffered with it in the car with the radio on, the more and more it grated on me. It's a horrible, whiny piece of music - even more offensive than Kings of Leon. I like pop-rock for the most part, but The Script is just horribly cringeworthy, rageworthy, and not to mention overplayed tripe.

Cult of Luna - Finland Somewhere Along the Highway is probably one of my favourite post-rock/sludge metal albums.

Teen Fashion in the US
Never take fashion tips from me. I look like someone straight out of Sonic Youth or My Bloody Valentine.

Songs that make you CRINGE
No other song has instilled a sense of rage in me like that. I don't even know why; it's just offensive to my ears.
