William Duvall - and Jerry Cantrell. Decent, but no Layne. Did you ever check out “Mad Season”, his side-project with Mike McCready (Pearl Jam)? Mark Lanegan guested. Barrett Martin (also Screaming Trees) played drums.
@ironmoth Faith no More in the Point in 1993 was a super gig too as I recall. Support was L7.
I lost my glasses crowd surfing.

Very nice! That was the tour that contained the infamous tampon incident with Donita Sparks from L7, as far as I can remember.
FNM - what a band! New album is daycent too.
Cheers guys. No Layne is right. Did Chris Cornell sing with them too? Audioslave was a good show, mainly because they had both Soundgarden and RATM songs to do.
Layne was original vocalist. William Duvall fronts them for the past two albums and was on vocals in Dublin too.
Iron Maiden - Donnington 2007. One of the best gigs I’ve been to. @maroonandwhite - Deftones were on the same bill. Mental gig.

I’ve had the shit kicked out of me (verbally) by my son daring to mention many of the bands mentioned on this thread and using the word metal. Metal heads as I discovered are particularly possessive about their genre. This is fucking metal Dad! cue 10 minutes of ear shredding. He was walking to school for a while after that, but I have to admit I developed a begrudging respect for it, especially after he introduced me to Deftones (only marginally on the metal spectrum according to him, but far enough on it for me). These are the cunts that got him kicked out of my car.

Haha! Good man! Your son is obviously a sharp cookie. Meshuggah have been referenced on here already, and that particular piece of extreme noise terror you posted is one of the most phenomenal displays of precision drumming ever committed to tape. Tomas Haake apparently had to spend 3 months practicing before recording it, and has to keep practicing it to pull it off live. The polyrhytmical nature of his drumming is outrageous.
Show your son this video…

I’m sure the mad fucker has seen it. The drumming and music in general I can handle, its the fucking vocals that do my head in (and Meshuggah are by no means the worst). His tastes have broadened a bit and we agree on most things musical these days. He’s also a decent guitarist so most of my inputs were getting the eye roll treatment anyway.

The vocals are an acquired taste, I’ll give you that much. Don’t bother me in the slightest now. Could even be lulled to sleep with them

Earthtone9 - up there with Forest as one of the best things to ever come out of Nottingham.
Surely the Earache record label is the best thing to come out of Nottingham.
One of Fagan. One of. Favourite Earache band? Lash up a vid
