Anyone going or have been?
-
I would loooooove to go, since I pray to see Andrew Bird live someday and it would be great to catch him with a bunch of other great acts too.
It's a long reach, though; it's not exactly easy for me to get to Tennessee.
-
that's the most solid line-up i've ever seen.
-
i would go for elvis costello
and maybe the dresden dolls/
but i dont listen to most of these bands

i would definatly pay to go see that.
but,
its in germany(i think?)
and im in america.
and we dont get any good metal festivals here.
-
khar, i'd go there just for cannibal corpse. well, i would go there, if i had the money. ah, well. i hope you have a good time, man.
-
That's funny, because of the ones I've heard of on that list, Cannibal Corpse is my least favorite. I'd still go for Atheist and Nevermore.
-
THat second festival looks great. FINNTROLLLLLLL
The first one though, it looks fairly craptastic; There's 3 bands that I wouldn't MIND seeing (Elvis Costello! Bela Fleck! FTW) but really, nothing amazing.
-
oh man, my knowledge of extreme metal is absolutely shocking. half of those bands i've never even heard of, but i'll definitely download some mp3's or something today. even so, i love cannibal corpse like a family member, and i'd literally chew off an arm to go see them. amon amarth i like a lot, too.
-
It may be lacking, but the drive for the knowledge of metal is still there. RIDE WITH THE VALKYRIES, SONNY.
that was realyl nerdy.
-
Me and my friends are considering going on a road trip this summer and this would be on the way, so we've added it to the stops.
-
Cannibal Corpse isn't even goregrind, it's just lazy, not particularly talented DM with constantly disgusting lyrics. I mean, I'm not one to shy away from violence in lyrics, but songs about pedophiles raping children and skinning them alive... you have to drawn the line somewhere. It's just sick.
-
Well, yes, it's bad music but it is kinda funny. I would totally go see them if they ever came anywhere near me. Also, not all of it is bad, check out Hammer Smashed Face. It's actually a good song.

yeah
cannibal corpse is, and always has been death metal, plain and simple.
thier newest album has some pretty decent songwriting and guitar work though.
i do agree with you on the lyrics part... i just ignore them mostly.
-
yeah, cannibal corpse aren't the most talented musicians on earth but, they're still talented, and i like their music.
