I'll see if I can cut out the solo from the track. I'd rather not hear examples, I know I'll end up too close to one of the examples and then it's not really my idea. I'd prefer pointers in the right direction.

Egg raid on mojo - Beastie Boys

I'm having a bit of trouble and hoping to get some tips. I can generally find a groove behind a guitar solo but our guitarist has just come up with an awesome heavy solo which isn't leaving me any space so I have to fit behind him rather than fill the spaces. I'm just not finding a groove but it must be there. Any tips for working around a solo would be useful.

Bloodmoon by Chelsea Wolf / Converge is a favourite.

I've found quite a few and many are to suit the more discerning metal head but there's one with a wider appeal who stand our, Hey Colossus. My favourite of their songs is The Mirror which features vocals by Mark Lanegan on the Dances / Curses album.

Body Farm - Cattle Decapitation

Benzin - Rammstein

Shellfish - Brittany Spears

Excellent firing! He probably would have kept threatening to leave for the next ten years.

Walk - Pantera

It's not me, it's you.

We're advertising for a heavy metal vocalist at the moment and I got an email this morning for someone who was interested. Turns out I saw his last band quite recently and he was bloody awful. Excuses were made as to why he might not be suitable (I didn't want to tell him he's crap). It wasn't easy to come up with convincing excuses on the spot and I think they were fairly crap.

Works for me every time. That and informing them that I'm a love albatross

We've all said things we wish we hadn't for a bit of snoo snoo

Ah yes. From the Heisenberg organic remedies stall?

Those bloody things are a pain in the ring. If you get stuck behind one, it's impossible to overtake. The que of traffic behind them must far outweigh the pollution saving of the electric hipster mobile. We do have a crystal seller at the market every Saturday for all your crystal needs. Apparently there's such a thing as an essential crystal! The music shop is actually pretty good, it's the one shop I do use in town. The owner has had it since the 70's, nice old bloke.

Still sounding pretty decent and looking surprisingly healthy

I just use standard nail clippers. If I do it in the garden the neighbours cat eats the bits. Not sure whether they can be digested, I'll check the turds in my veg plot.

I think Metallica and Tool tabs are already well covered on YouTube. There's not many Faith No More tabs, no idea why. Billy Gould is one of the great metal bassists. Rancid tabs are generally wrong, Matt Freeman is far from your average punk Bassist. Maxwell Murders and Journey To The End of East Bay are the obvious choices but also Sound System by Operation Ivy (same bassist) is a great bass line. A lot of punk tabs get simplified to just root notes and they miss out all the fills that make them interesting.

But you can roll it in glitter

Looks nicely done. Any plans to add some punk and metal tunes?

It looks terrible, sounds like a cheap beginner bass, looks uncomfortable to play sitting down plus I think I'd feel cramped playing a bass that short. I don't really understand the purpose of it. It's a f**k no from me.

If you're in Britain, just wait 5 minutes and it'll be overcast and drizzle again.

Its like a lighthouse one the shore of an ocean of granny booze. At least Shepton hasn't suffered the invasion of hipsters and crystal healing, vintage wearing, junk shop frequenting, hippy rich London people we've got here in Frome. I went for a pint last night in the latest hipster craft beer place to see what it's all about, £6.20 for a pint of very weird tasting IPA. I seem to have wandered off in to a whole different rant here.
