hey everyone,
I went to the soundwave festival in Brisbane on saturday. It was an awesome day, I finally got to see Metallica, they are the band that made me pick up a guitar back in 1989 and I now make a living from playing the guitar so I feel I owe them a big thanks. Slayer, Anthrax, Paramore, Periphery, and Linkin park were some of the other bands that played as well but the band that stood out the most was Sylosis. I don't know if any of you have heard of these guys but when I first heard their riffs and solo's I thought, how are they going to perform that live. They are a melodic thrash metal band from the UK and they have some awesome chunky palm muted rhythms and amazing sweep/tapping solos. They pulled it off live!!!!! I thought it was going to be a little sloppy at least but no. They were super tight, didn't miss a single note. Sadly there were only about 100 people at their stage which is not many when there were 50000 at the festival. I really hope that people give these guys a good listen as to me they are the best band that I have heard in a long time. Here is one of their songs Empyreal played live at some other venue, I was too busy picking my jaw off the ground to get any footage  PS: there is some swearing at the start. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MKvd_7ufhM -------------------- When your fingers bleed you're getting somewhere

Awesome fest!! Thanks for recommending this band... I'm listening to this song right now and I'm enjoying it! I remember when Bullet for my valentine was closer to this style...

Oh man, yes! I've shared the poster on Facebook for this fest and these guys sound killer - not necessarily my type of music, but hey, it's played darn awesome!
