[Lambofgodfan]

I've been listening to this band called The Sword...they are fucking amazing...Their playing at the black cat next weds. but I cant go...I'd kill to go....anyways if you like rock in general check them out (Imagine Ozzy Osbourne's band on speed and mixed with Lynard Skynard)...Atleast I will be seeing Gwar next thursday....

lol uh no....in music there is really no such thing as being the best unless you go by the numbers... its just an opinion.
  Not a bad song though.

I might go.

I am going and am really looking forward to it. Saw them a couple weeks ago in Austin and it was fantastic. The new songs, to a one, all sounded like instant classics, if you're into waves of heavy riffs.
 
 And Valient Thorr, one of the openers, is pretty awesome too. They've got more of a post-metal sound, with jerky rhythms and David Yow-like vocals.

Iâ??m really looking forward to this show.  
 
 Iâ??ve never seen The Sword live, but Valient Thorr always put on an energetic live show.

Just realized this show is on the same night as Pink Reason/Psychedelic Horseshit/Fake Accents. Ouch.

Is this supposed to be a joke? cause its pretty funny if it is...

You wouldn't be laughing if you'd heard any of those three bands.

Agreed. I like the Pink Reason ep, and I like Fake Accents (haven't heard the shit one) but... in terms of a live show, I think any line-up that has the words "Sword" "Thor" and "Cobra" is the clear pick.

I prefer to see metal bands whose lineup doesn't consist of indie-rock dorks attempting to cash in on metal's resurgence with some half-baked 8th generation Black Sabbath wannabe bullshit.
