Haha, this place has a metal thread!!! I’ll be boring you all with posts here for many days to come i’m sure. It’s an obsession of mine. I’m mostly into black metal and death metal, but I like a bit of everything.

There’s to many to count so I’ll start with one that not many are into.

I have got to change my ways
’Cause I’m losing my mind
I have got to stop drinking
Because I’m dying inside
I feel twice as old as I am
And it’s getting worse
I’m in the palm of habit’s hand
I can’t escape the curse
There is nothing that I can do
I have no self-control
I have let myself become dead
I have ruined my soul
Every time I wake up sick
I say never again
But then opportunity knocks
And I’m wasted, my friend
I can’t control my addiction
I’ve tried time and time again
I’m losing all my friends and lovers
Alcohol knows it’s gonna win
Now I have lost everything
And I really don’t care
Everybody that I have known
Has outcast me here
Drinking has wasted my life
And I’m dying inside
I feel twice as old as I am
I’ve lost what’s left of my mind
I can’t control my addiction
I’ve tried time and time again
I’m losing all my friends and lovers
Alcohol knows it’s gonna win

Definitely don’t consider this to be metal (lol) but I know we all can relate to these lyrics.

"Woke up and I feel like shit
I don’t remember last night, I’m getting sick of this
I hit the bottle when I got off stage
and got piss drunk stupid and went I in a rage
I think I mighta got into a fight
Because my knuckles were bloody and I don’t feel alright
I hit the bottom and I don’t even care
Some say I’m going to hell but I’m already there
Sick and tired of being sick and tired
I want to be free from this ball and chain and
Be free from this life of pain and
be free from this ball and chain
I want to be free from you…"

Yea he’s talked about his problems with drinking in other songs. I remember hearing Binge when Infest came out in 2000. Definitely played that album to death back in the day. Haha.

This song is a little more punk than metal, but I wanted to share. This song has been stuck in my head since I saw Dag Nasty play in December. The video is boring, but the song has truth…Under your Influence…Right Goes Wrong!

Good ol Slipknot. I liked their first two albums (not including Mate, Feed, Kill, Repeat) but after that I was tapped out. Same with Otep. Started out super strong - I literally still get chills from Sevas Tra - and then they just fizzled for me.

I’m fairly new to Slipknot myself. And to be completely honest I really mostly dig psychosocial. Their other stuff is alright. I’m more of a punk rocker with metal tendencies. Love this thread for the introduction to some new music though
