Headbanger Ball Recap 3/28

Scott — Sun, 29 Mar 2009 03:59:26 +0000

I haven’t mentioned much about Headbanger’s Ball lately because it’s been on too late for me to really care about it. This week only it was an early show that started at 10pm and it was a pretty good line up…with the exception of 2 songs. Hed PE still sucks and the new Static X song is just like their old songs and I can’t say that I liked it at all. Despite what a lot of other people are saying, I kind of dig the new Dope song, 6-6-Sick. I think it would sound better if someone else was singing, but then it wouldn’t be Dope now would it? Check it out below. The list of all the videos is after the fold (via Roadrunner.com).

MASTODON – DIVINATIONS
HATEBREED – TO THE THRESHOLD
LAMB OF GOD – SET TO FAIL
WAR OF AGES – ALL CONSUMING FIRE/HBB PREMIERE
HED PE – RENEGADE
MEGADETH – NEVER WALK ALONE…A CALL TO ARMS
LACUNA COIL – OUR TRUTH
LIZZY BORDEN – UNDER YOUR SKIN/HBB PREMIERE
STATIC X – STINGWRAY
SLIPKNOT – DEAD MEMORIES
DOPE – 6-6 SICK
CANNIBAL CORPSE – EVISCERATION PLAGUE
EXODUS – RIOT ACT
CATTLE DECAPITATION – REGRET & THE GRAVE
DIMMU BORGIR – THE SERPENTINE OFFERING
HEAVEN & HELL – SHADOW OF THE WIND
KREATOR – HORDES OF CHAOS
QUEENSRYCHE – IF I WERE KING/HBB PREMIERE

Cool video for a great band and song.

Headbanger’s Ball Playlist

Scott — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 23:50:18 +0000

Not a bad mix tonight. I’m glad they dropped some of the videos from last week. All That Remains’ Two weeks starts things off and Toxic Holocaust finishes it up. I was never a Faith No More fan so I could do without that one. Back in it’s day, I used to hear people say "He’s got an evil sounding voice" whenever they heard the "What is it" part of Epic and I always used to say, "Damn, you must never have listened to any metal then."

But hell, you get the new Amon Amarth Video in there so you can’t complain too much. I think they should go back to the two hour show and throw more older videos in there, but that’s just me.

All That Remains – Two Weeks
Trivium – Down From The Sky
Architects – Always
The Sword – Fire Lances of the Ancient Hyperzephyrians
Lordi – Bite It Like A Bulldog
Neurosis – Locust Star (From Ozzfest)
Underoath – Desperate Times, Desperate Measures
Amon Amarth – Twilight Of The Thunder God
Bleed The Sky – Sullivan
Faith No More – Epic
Toxic Holocaust – Wild Dogs

Headbanger’s Ball Playlist 9/27

Scott — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 23:42:35 +0000

Some pretty cool videos this week. It’s repetitive as usual but still a couple of older and classic videos in there like 5 Minutes Alone and To Sirius. Could be worse. Avenged Sevenfold could be in there with their new live DVD coming out. Something to not look forward to. Yes that’s really me, but no the hair is not real. I stole it from Nikki Sixx when he wasn’t looking.

The Human Abstract – Procession Of The Fates
Hatebreed – Destroy Everything (Live)
Architects – Always
The Sword – Fire lances Of The Great Hyperzephyrians
Pantera – 5 Minutes Alone
In Flames – Alias
Children Of Bodom – Smile Pretty For The Devil
Five Finger Death Punch – Way Of The Fist
Gojira – To Sirius
All That Remains – Chiron

Headbanger’s Ball 9/13

Scott — Sun, 14 Sep 2008 00:34:07 +0000

Tonight Headbanger’s Ball is airing from 11pm EST to Midnight EST. I think I remember Headbanger’s Blog saying that this is going to be it’s new time, which is cool cause my old ass has a hard time staying up past midnight sometimes. Makes it tough to watch Metalocalypse. I need to get a DVR. Anyway, looks to be only 8 videos, so either one or more of them is really long or you can expect a few more commercials in the mix. I’d saying it’s probably more commercials.

Children Of Bodom -Smile pretty For The Devil
In Flames – Alias
Misery Signals – A Certain Death
Underoath – Desperate Times, Desperate Measures
Five Finger Death Punch – The Way Of The Fist
Hatebreed – I Will Be Heard (Live)
Unleashed – Black Horizon
Shadows Fall – Forevermore

You can also check out the embedded players after the fold and watch all the videos and find something else to do on a Saturday night, like ding-dong-ditch with flaming bags of poo…or perhaps go out and get laid or something. Peace!

Headbanger’s Ball Playlist 8/9

Scott — Sun, 10 Aug 2008 03:08:29 +0000

Last week I kind of slacked due to the fact that I was on vacation with my family and it really wasn’t on my mind. Here is this weeks HBB play list. Not the greatest list. The Hatebreed video will be on the upcoming live DVD, The gates Of Slumber video is kind of a cool, sledge, doom song (Kind of reminds me of Devon Townsend) and the Dragonforce song is from their upcoming Ultra-beat off cd. The Straight Line Stitch video is better than the last one but I still don’t like this band. I have always loved the Korn ‘Blind’ video, I don;t care what anyone says about nu-metal and to be totally honest I’m kind of growing tired of Meshuggah. I won’t be watching tonight, so someone let me know how the Impending Doom video is. Lastly, I think it’s about time they take this HTML Rulez Dood video out of rotation, right? Put WhiteChapel’s This Is Exile and Kataklysm’s Taking The World By Storm back in there. Keep a look out for a new All That Remains Video in the works in the next coming month from the new album Overcome. Play list after the fold.

HATEBREED – LIVE FOR THIS (live)
THE GATES OF SLUMBER – TRAPPED IN THE WEB
LAMB OF GOD – WALK WITH ME IN HELL
DRAGONFORCE – HEROES OF OUR TIME
STRAIGHT LINE STITCH – BLACK VEIL
HATE ETERNAL – I, MONARCH
ARISE AND RUIN – BOUND BY BLOOD
MESHUGGAH – BLEED
IMPENDING DOOM – MY NEMESIS
KORN – BLIND
THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA – HTML RULEZ DOOD

BORIS – STATEMENT

SLIPKNOT – PSYCHOSOCIAL

MUNICIPAL WASTE – SADISTIC MAGICIAN

TERROR – NEVER ALONE
