So the NFL has an international marketing campaign which involves marketing certain teams to different countries. The San Francisco 49ers are one of the teams that they are marketing in Mexico and The Warning has struck some kind of marketing deal with the 49ers. They've been posting on Instagram pics of them in 49ers gear. Today they were at the local stadium in Monterrey with the teams mascot and a few other representatives joined them and The Warning was able to announce one of the teams draft picks live on ESPN.

I'm enjoying this album. Anyone else get a Separate Ways from Journey vibe during the chorus of Peacefield?
-
I think this album is following the same story as the last one. The artwork is similar and the font they used for the song titles is the same. So perhaps Rob wanted to continue the story in a bit of a different way musically.

Have you given the new Machine Head album a listen? It's good but all the songs are pretty short by Machine Head standards. The album is only 41 minutes which is crazy short for them. The songs are enjoyable but there is definitely a different approach here that I'm not sure about. It sounds like them but all the songs seem to be written with the idea of any of them could be singles which is very much not like them.

Baroness isn't that big. I would guess that The Sword is at about the same level. The Sword opened for Metallica on the Death Magnetic tour so I wouldn't be surprised if they were a little more well known than Baroness.

Everything is ok in Warningville after they cancelled those shows in South America. Ale ended up getting vertigo and that's why the shows were cancelled. They're in Europe right now doing a short 4 city tour. They're pretty much doing a scaled down version of the shows in Mexico back in February.

I didn't know that Requiem got a lot of hate. One of my favorite albums from them along with The Holographic Principle and Design Your Universe.
-
That's a good way to explain the album. It's still very much them but I feel a little something different going on. Very good album overall.

Shane Gillis should play Trump.

They actually held back for the first time ever. The album is only 61 minutes 😄

Love both new songs. I've been a fan since the first album. You could say that you were late getting into them but Impera is the album that made them more massive than ever. You're probably not the only one who didn't discover them until then. The dedicated metal audience was with them on the first 3 albums and since then the general rock/metal fan has gradually come to know them and get on board. The Grammy nomination for Cirice followed by them opening for Maiden in North America were the huge turning points for their popularity.

I wasn't looking for nosebleeds. I actually wanted to have tickets lower down so it actually felt like I was at a concert. Those ticket prices were right from Ticketmaster. -

I did want to go to that show but I'm probably not going to go to any big arena or stadium shows until the ridiculous ticket prices go down. The tickets I was looking at were in the $130-$160 range. After fees we're talking over $200 bucks for a single ticket. I've been a fan of Disturbed since their first album but they are not a spend $200 on a ticket kind of band for me. I'm also skipping out on seeing Metallica in Syracuse next week with their $320 tickets. I mean come on. People shouldn't have to skip a car payment just to see a couple of shows. The pricing is absolutely out of hand. I have no problem going to see a band I like at a smaller/mid sized venue where the tickets are under $100 apiece. -

They've had some good success over here. I know that they've had a few songs that have gone to number one on the mainstream rock charts. They're opening for Disturbed in the US right now. Nothing I've heard from them has ever stuck with me though. I know who they are but can't remember what any of their songs sound like. -
I have never heard the word "cloying" in my life. I had to look that one up 😄
