the heavy devil metal press

the saga continues...

2010-08-26T19:45:00.000-07:00

i have been accused of internet theft, and i am being harassed by a hillbilly in arkansas because according to him i have stolen the name of his website and he claims i am trying to "damage his company" when i have never even heard of this clown until he sent emails and yahoo messages to me.

this is his latest yahoo message:

7:22 AM
8/24
Please do ...lol..But be warned. Your the one trying to damage my company online with your blog and your using my name..
7:23 AM
8/24
I will be in touch. later

now i have tried to explain to this hillbilly that i had the name first so i could not have stolen it, and his worry about search engine results are not me but the search engine he is using, i simply do not have any clue as to who this idiot is, and until he popped up i never once wrote one word about his "company" and or its website, which as i stated in simple enough english that it is not a "true metal" site but a "false metal" site. that means he covers metal that is not really metal but some type of music created by someone who wants to be metal but cannot cope with the lifestyle.
holding me responsible for search engine results is ridiculous, i dont want his traffic whatsoever, and he cannot get that through his thick skull. and as i stated before, this "vortex of idiocy" that he has created has driven him up in search engine results, all because of me. talk about biting the hand that feeds.
how is it that this blog has been around so long and he is only complaining now? as i have had the same search engine rankings since the creation of this blog? seems to me if he has the trademark for the term "metal press" he could sue many people, but he says this is not true. it just pertains to me and my blog.
i also have to point out that you dont hear fox news suing msnbc because they criticized the way they cover news or what they said about the rival news channel. this guy is trying to bait me, but he is really just a sad guy with not a whole lot going on.
my proposal to end this crap once and for all is this: how about a 3 round mma fight to determine the outcome?
contact dana white and tell him you are upset and disgruntled at the way l have thought crimed your name, and that i said it was cool to brawl it out. have us do it as a prelim fight, sound cool?
i will even let you use headgear. i dont know what else to say about this as i did not steal anything, nor am i trying to damage a "company", one that i have never in my 44 years of existence have even ever heard of.
celtic coffee thursday, all hail, and resist gods word as it is trash and spit from those who praise to be enslaved. do not submit.

hiding behind the hard metal...

2010-08-18T18:56:00.000-07:00

this situation is out of control, now i am dumb because it all boils down to bucks up hillbillies lecturing me on law. according to false metal guy darron, it does not matter if i used the name for 50 years prior, if someone comes along and pays the money for a trade mark, you have to stop using the name, slogan, phrase, whatever.

first the the name of this blog was "unoriginal", and the use of it was a violation of blah blah blah, now its because he paid the cash for stomping rights. damn that date, it means nothing, hahaha, sorry clowny, you simply spent too much money.

as far as "hiding behind" hard metal, i dont know what that means, so i am sorry that i dont understand false metal speak.

i can tell you however, that having been in various punk, black metal, and death metal bands in my lifetime, i believe in my blackend heart, that is what makes me metal, nothing more, nothing less.

it is a shame that you have taken advantage of my ability to drive websites up in search engine ratings, it is a side job that i am very good at as i have been doing this since the mid 90s.

i hope your "loyal followers" come here to see the truth, the date of my creation is set in stone, it does not lie.

now for the future. i have shown this "situation" to some select friends, and interest is peaked, i wish you would have stayed in the weeds or sticks, mountains, whatever, but pretty soon the circus is coming to town. ok clowny?

you have a pathetic life to have started this conflict, it is people like you who are truly the dumb one. go back to law school, please.

we dont give one shit about what god said... you hear me el douche?

2010-08-17T19:21:00.000-07:00

according to metalpress.tv, i have stolen their name. now i have to make this very clear, the heavy devil metal press was on the web at least 1 year before them. i do not know how i could have "stolen" something that had yet to be published on the web. i have been accused of many things, but this one takes the cake. this would be an awesome thought crime scenario if anyone wants to make a tv show, using this as a plot line.
now the false metal site has also accused me of being mad, well, i am not really mad, so much as i am annoyed by some f-tard from hillbilly land. to say he pissed in my cheerios is one thing, but the idiot never made it in the bowl. and this clown busky even tried to add me to his friends list on yahoo. wtf!?
all this has done is drive his website up in search engine rankings, before me this guy was not on the radar, now because of me, you see him. i call you el douche...

the born on date, not just for beer!

2010-08-14T08:22:00.000-07:00

i am now being harassed by a hillbilly in arkansas about the name of this blog, this guy is bummed about search engine results, which as i tried to explain to this cyber goon that the problem is not me, and more than just "meta tags", he is now blaming me for google results!
one thing i must clear up, i started this blog before his website was up, period, lets get that important issue out of the way. next, the term "press" is commonly used amongst publications, its origin is older than both my blog and his website.

this guy wants to sue me, take my blog down, and he supports false metal, what is the problem with this moron? we were the press before he was! unholy shit goober guy, go attack somebody else, better yet, learn what metal is. a lame quote from a dead heroin addict does not make your site metal...

fair use in the world of metal...

2010-08-12T07:22:00.000-07:00

according to our attorney, the term metal press in our blog name falls most comfortably under the rights of "fair use", tonight we will party.

metalpress.tv vs the heavy devil metal press

2010-08-11T22:12:00.000-07:00

this blog has been inactive for a couple years, for various reasons. recently the idea to regenerate the blog came to mind and we had planned a meeting to create an attack plan.
today i come home and this is what i see when i start my yahoo;

powerofthemoon: This is Darron of Metalpress.tv Your use of our trademarked name "MetalPress" In your website blog is illegal- and we are forced by law to procute anyone using our name. I strongly suggest you remove the material with the term "Metal Press" So I dont have to sue a fellow metalhead. ty 501-305-XXXX phone- anytime for more details.

necro: sue me dickhead

after a quick phone call explaining my displeasure in getting this crap message, i get this;

powerofthemoon: Dude...fucking chill. I am required by law- trademark law to ask you to stop using it. I am sorry your too much of a pussy to talk on the phone..as I was gonna explain it too you. I dont have to sue you. You blog will be removed. Or you could be a bit nicer and talk about it. After your meds.

after which i simply sent back his address asking if that was him, and i have not heard back since.
in doing a google search for "metal press", i dont come up on the first page, so i didnt waste my time any further. i then searched "heavy metal press", and there i was, number 9 on the first page and this guys website is nowhere to be seen, not on the first page at least. i then notice the number 1 result on the page is heavymetalpressco.com, i wonder if they got served the same crap text or email as i did?
i then did a search and found rosemetalpress.com, did they too receive this same message and threat?
it is my personal belief that this guy has hurt feelings that another site came up before his. sorry hurt feelings guy, i cannot help you.
if you did a better job than i at search engine optimization, you wouldnt be worrying about this.
move on, the band i saw in video format on your site is not even heavy metal. it is like garage rock or urban/new metal. please do not confuse the type of bands expressed here on my blog with the bands you associate with.
the sad thing is how long i have been inactive, and i do apologize for being lazy, but i still came up before this guy. satan couldnt help this guy. wouldnt...

the state of death metal- wall street journal style

2006-09-04T09:51:00.000-07:00

an interesting look at how people from outside & inside the scene view certain aspects of death metal, in this case, the singing style of death metal. in making his comments about the singing read what monte conner says about the death metal scene in general. this a reprint(hope they dont sue me, all i have are a bunch of skulls & inverted crosses), & link to original w.s. journal post.

That's Good Enough for Me
Cookie Monsters of death-metal music.

BY JIM FUSILLI
Wednesday, February 1, 2006
While the extreme branch of heavy-metal music known as death metal is defined in part by often-vile lyrics about violence, catastrophic destruction, nihilism, anarchy and paranoia, its singing style is associated with a beloved goggle-eyed, fuzzy blue puppet.
Death-metal vocalizing is also known as Cookie Monster singing, if not in tribute to, at least in acknowledgment of, the "Sesame Street" puppet that blurts in a guttural growl, his words discharged so rapidly that they tend to collide with each other.
All this was news to people at Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit organization behind "Sesame Street." "We have nothing to do with it," said Ellen Lewis, vice president of corporate communications. "What is it?"
"It's a whole new thing to me," said Frank Oz, who originated the voice of the Cookie Monster. "I've never heard of it."
Most death-metal vocalists don't seem to mind the term. "We think it's funny," said Angela Gussow, lead singer for the Swedish band Arch Enemy and one of the few female death-metal vocalists. "We take ourselves too seriously."
The term is considered derogatory by some metal fans, but it's an apt description. Issued like machine-gun fire, death-metal vocals are low, guttural and aggressive, with no subtlety, no melody and very little modulation. But unlike the garbled sound emanating from the lovable and occasionally frenetic Cookie Monster, death-metal vocals seem to come from a dark spot in a troubled soul, as if they were the narrator's voice on a tour of Dante's seventh circle of hell. Cute and funny they ain't.

It's not easy to determine where and how Cookie Monster singing actually began. Early death-metal bands such as Death and Morbid Angel that emerged from Florida in the mid-'80s helped create the musical template that characterized the blasting sound as well as that of its Satan- and occult-obsessed sibling, black metal: fast, relentless drumming often featuring two bass drums; grinding, rapid-fire chording on guitars; squealing guitar solos; muted electric bass; unexpected sudden tempo changes; and a sense of theatricality that's inevitably threatening--"a horror film put to music" is how Monte Conner, a vice president at Roadrunner Records, sees it.
But while the vocals in early death metal are low, raspy and aggressive, not unlike the vocals by, say, Lemmy Kilmister of Motörhead, that extreme degree of Cookieness is missing.
To be a true Cookie Monster vocal, said Mr. Conner, who signed some of the subgenre's biggest bands, including Sepultura and Fear Factory, "it's got to be really, really guttural. It should sound like they're gargling glass."
Nic Bullen of Napalm Death can sound remarkably like the Cookie Monster; his performance on the band's 1987 debut "Scum" (Earache)--which contains 28 songs, 11 of which are under one minute in length, including "You Suffer," which clocks in at less than two seconds--is a virtual Cookie Monster tribute. Frank Mullen of Suffocation, whose 1991 album "Effigy of the Forgotten" (Roadrunner) is considered a model of death-metal music, sounds like an especially malevolent Cookie Monster.
The term also signifies a level of incomprehensibility of the lyrics, which in most cases is absolute. Given the subject matter, that's probably for the best. Carcass, a band featuring vocalist Jeff Walker, sings in graphic detail of disembowelment and the mechanics of the autopsy. Bloody annihilation is another popular theme among the groups. For most death-metal bands, the gorier the better, and few gruesome details are spared.
"If you want to make music that's terrifying, you have to sing about ripping people's heads off," Mr. Conner of Roadrunner Records told me. "Singing about puppies and kittens isn't too cool."
Death-metal singing takes a toll on vocalists, according to Ms. Gussow, who joined Arch Enemy in 2001. She says that despite the characteristic rock-salt-and-razors growl, the sound doesn't originate in the throat. It gets pushed up from the abdomen.
"If you use the right abdomen muscles, you get a lot of power," she says. "It's a primal form of vocalizing, but it's also a very controlled style of singing. You can get weak if you don't have muscle power."
She does vocal exercises to keep fit, some of which she learned from Melissa Cross, a New York-based voice teacher whose instructional DVD "The Zen of Screaming" is a favorite of extreme vocalists.
"We're on tour, sometimes, for 2 1/2 months," the German-born Ms. Gussow said. "I can't miss even a day."
Mr. Oz agrees that making Cookie Monster sounds is an arduous occupation. "I never trained for it and I blew my pipes out," he told me. "It's completely unnatural, an explosion of force that comes from the belly through the throat. I would do a day of it and my normal voice would be a half an octave lower." (During our conversation, Mr. Oz demonstrated the Cookie Monster voice. The sudden force was startling and the volume so loud, I had to pull the phone from my ear.)

Alas, the Cookie Monster school of death metal is dying, says Mr. Conner. In the late '80s, popular death-metal bands like Sepultura, Obituary and Deicide sold about 100,000 CDs, not a bad total for bands on the musical fringe. Today's bands that play only old-school death metal are lucky to sell 15% to 20% of that figure. "I stopped signing death-metal bands in '93 or '94," Mr. Conner told me. "The glory days have long ago passed."
Part of the reason is a reaction to a natural instinct among pop musicians: a desire to expand the audience. Death-metal pioneers Entombed now leapfrog between the sound of their classic '89 album "Left Hand Path" (Earache) and more traditional heavy metal. Fear Factory's singer Burton C. Bell modified his Cookie Monster vocals that were prominent on the band's early work in time for its '99 release "Obsolete" (Roadrunner), which incorporates melodic or "clean" vocals, rap and metal singing without the Cookie Monster edge. The lyrics, clearly decipherable, tell the story of the war between man and machines. "Obsolete" sold more than 500,000 copies, significantly more than any of the band's previous albums.
Led by 20-year-old vocalist Matthew K. Heafy, who counts Metallica and Pantera as major influences, Trivium also blends almost-Cookie Monster guttural singing with melodic vocals. The music of the Orlando, Fla.-based group echoes classic death metal, but has elements of other heavy-metal schools. Mr. Heafy says: "I can't even do Cookie Monster vocals. It's kind of a limited style. You can convey much more emotion with other types of singing."
Mr. Fusilli, a novelist and critic, covers rock and pop music for the Journal.

emperor- key club los angeles

2006-07-18T23:11:00.000-07:00

emperor, goatwhore, & crematorium @ the key club. crematorium opened the late starting show, wound-up metal freaks taunted the grindcore style band, but they raged on, playing a very tight set, although the singer lacks any kind of stage persona what so ever, they were not bad & i have seen far worse. louisianas goatwhore were on next. old school black metal, no keyboards, & heavy on the satan. these guys rocked with lots of rabid goatwhore fans going nuts. while america is not known for black metal, bands like this will soon change peoples minds. after a stage change & scenes from "the legend of ricky o", norways black metal gods emperor explode on stage, for the first 30 seconds ihsahn had no vocals, once that was fixed, it was pure black metal. tryms drumming is simply amazing, he is by far one of the best black metal drummers going. samoth had visa issues & was not granted entry to the states, so ihsahn did all the guitar work, & after the vocal mix was fixed, his singing was perfect. i would have to say "inno a satana", "in the wordless chamber", & "the loss and curse of reverence" were my favorite songs of the evening. every song was tight, and ihsahns vocals were awesome, & trym was simply amazing, emperor truly lived up to the legend status they so rightly deserve. all hail!

dark funeral- attera totus sanctus cd review

2006-04-26T19:30:00.000-07:00

dark funerals latest, attera totus sanctus, is extreme black metal at its best. blazing speed, the dark funeral way, this is solid black, caligulas vocals are straight from hell, he screams like no one else, and the production is excellent. opening track king antichrist is hellish fire exploding from the bowels of hell, this song sets the pace, and 666 voices inside rips on from there. the emperors singing on this is gut wrenching, like the voices are actually talking through him. lord ahriman & chaq mol blister the fret boards here, & matte modin pounds as if his life depends on it. the tempo never lets up. attera totus sanctus, rides the crimson wave of flames, while the tempo is unrelenting, its more than the title track, its a testament to one who has truly gone to the dark side. godhate is a horn fest, anti-christian lyrics, & insane speed takes through ancient israel, walk with jesus & you can almost feel the nails. atrum regina is a midpaced love song, satanic love is no different than other love, except its real nasty, fucking hail! angel flesh impaled says it all, grab a bloody feather for me. feed on the mortals is grave exploding energy, tales of terror the vampire way. this might be my least favorite song, but it still rips, & is a good lead in to the final ritual. which in my opinion is the best song, it starts out like the first song, & builds to a genuine black metal climax. truly dynamic, if you arent headbanging to this, your a pantera fan. their best yet, this is a solid 6 cross cd here, extreme black metal from sweden. hail! -l- -l- -l- -l- -l- -l-

impaled nazarene- pro patria finlandia cd review

2006-04-16T12:18:00.000-07:00

nuclear metal gods impaled nazarene are back with an all out assault on the world. no one is safe from these crazy finnish metal thrashers. first salvo is "weapons to tame a land", grab your desert eagle & start headbanging, classic i.n. insane thrash with sluti666 screaming his putrid guts out. "something sinister" rips through you like a depleted uranium round, tuomio & onraj9mm go nuts, maniac style on guitars on this one. your in serious piss off mode now, "goat sodomy" blast heavy, fast, & hard. their is no doubt what these guys are about here, all hell is exploding, riff crazy metal at its finest. reminds me of early grave digger, screaming vocals & wicked fast double bass drumming. "neighbourcide" rolls out like a panzer division late for the front lines, raise the horns on this one. "one dead nation under dead god" is finnish death metal like only the finns can do. cold, black, & haunting, a shot of vodka is good with this one. good riffing & an early iron maiden style feel, horns!!! raise the fucking horns!!! ak47s go off here, this is the fall of europe, "for those who have fallen" praises the fighters who take arms, in blind defence of their homelands. close your eyes & smell the smoke & death. "leucorrhea", a cool short intro to "kut", a better song for valentines i cannot think of, "this castrated world" is your nightmare confirmed, after the nukes go off you still gotta get to hell. your pulse will quicken here, & when you hear the sirens go off, "psykosis" generates a vortex of nuclear particles, flesh is taken from the bone & bbq is served. "contempt", when you have to have the perfect anti-whore song. beer drinking metal, like only men can do. i cant say enough about the true nature of the next song, death metal is no bullshit, hippies & commies are crap, "i wage war" is the answer to all those mall monkies wearing their che shirts. muerto. radiation therapy, impaled nazerene style, "cancer" tells the death sentence tale of h.i.v. "hate-despise-arrogance", sins or motivations? you decide, better yet, listen to sluti666 & then make your decision. good production & solid metal, this recording is pure over the top nuclear metal, like only impaled nazarene can do, we give it 5 crosses, hail!. -l- -l- -l- -l- -l-

2006-04-16T11:53:00.000-07:00

this was a jagermeister show, so with that being said here goes; we got there early to grab a bite to eat ect. however this place is in or near disneyfuckingland, tourists suck. once inside we obliged ourselves to the sponsoring spirit & their friend jack, & it was very twisted after that. hate eternal, god forbid, & nevermore were the opening acts. i dont remember anything about god forbid, so i wont comment anything here. hate eternal were pretty good, we watched most of their set, & drank some more. nevermore were ok, the singer was a little annoying, so we drank alot more. now the last time i saw arch enemy, was on the headbangers ball tour, so i was pumped to see them. they palyed alot of doomsday material, not nearly enough older stuff(diva satanica would be nice), but they were tight as the last time i saw them. i think ravenous may have been my favorite song of the evening, angelas voice was awesome despite having a cold. michaels guitar work was flawless, as was new guy gus g? i was completely blasted at this point, & theyr break into dead eyes, whipping the metal crowd into total chaos. sharlees bass & daniels drumming are the shit, they fucking kick ass. we waited for chimaira, got some more shots, & chimaira came on. i like them, a little. we watched 2 songs & split. now, i know you might say, wtf, & why did you jam? well, my metal fiends & friends, i just dont care for them that much, & i will see them with emperor later this year. good show, lots of booze, & the metal chicks were out like sluts on sunset in july. fucking hail!

emperor- prometheus "the discipline of fire & demise" cd review

2005-09-05T13:05:00.000-07:00

into the archives we dig out a black metal classic. emperors "prometheus- the discipline of fire & demise" cd, one of the most controversial bands to erupt out of the norwegian black metal scene. this offering shows the refinement of the band without the compromise many feel necessary to succumb too. "the eruption" starts off the disc with the force of satans anger, & the music only builds from here, "the prophet" is a headbanging classic. ihsahns & samoths guitar work, & the drumming by trym are the key elements here, ihsahns vocals are well produced and every growl is as clear as the baphomet itself. "in the wordless chamber" & "thorns on my grave" are 2 of the best tracks on this recording, balancing almost atmospheric feel and black metal brutality. if you need a cd that will disturb your neighbors, & confuse your friends, this might just be what you are looking for, giving this fine disc a 6 cross review. -l- -l- -l- -l- -l- -l-

without sounding like a terrorist, i wish someone would "eliminate" greenday. maybe using pat robertson? i fucking hate MTV & the current era of punk.
they are about as punk as i am gay. look at this pathetic idiot billie joe of greenday. the look on his face sez it all, maybe he will get another DUI after the party & finally go to jail to be sodomized(much to his delight i am sure), by his cellmate. if these clowns ever get to norway, someone should beat them with a viking oar. all hail.

i dont want to inject politics into this blog, but this is too much.

Norwegians Confused by Bush SaluteOSLO, Norway (AP) - President Bush's ``Hook 'em, 'horns'' salute got lost in translation in Norway, where shocked people interpreted his hand gesture during his inauguration as a salute to Satan. That's what it means in the Nordics when you throw up the right hand with the index and pinky fingers raised, a gesture popular among heavy metal groups and their fans in the region. ``Shock greeting from Bush daughter,'' a headline in the Norwegian Internet newspaper Nettavisen said above a photograph of Bush's daughter Jenna, smiling and showing the sign. For Texans, the gesture is a sign of love for the University of Texas Longhorns, whose fans are known to shout out ``Hook 'em, 'horns!'' at sporting events. Bush, a former Texas governor, and his family made the sign to greet the Longhorn marching band as it passed during the inaugural parade through Washington during Thursday's festivities, explained Verdens Gang, Norway's largest newspaper.
