I can't believe we are considering bringing Paul Shaw back as a replacement for Vincent Pericard when we've got Danny Webber on the bench...

Devil May Cry - not that taxing, although you'll probably die a few times. Once you get the hang of things its fairly straight fordward... not to mention cool.

"Bat out of Hell" - Meat Loaf (full version) "Stairway to Heaven" - Led Zeppelin "Freebird" - Lynyrd Skynyrd "Paschendale" - Iron Maiden "The Clansman" - Iron Maiden (Rock in Rio version) "Dream of Mirrors" - Iron Maiden "Fear of the Dark" - Iron Maiden (Rock in Rio version) "Hallowed Be Thy Name" - Iron Maiden (Rock in Rio version) "Who's Got My Back Now?" - Creed "Ghost Love Score" - Nightwish "One" - Metallica "November Rain" - Guns N' Roses "Civil War" - Guns N' Roses I'll add more later...

Erm, if you've got "rich" parents, then I can't see how he can justifiably called working-class. His family have a measure of financial freedom.

check out the two minute "Intro" on Bullet For My Valentine's debut album "The Poison". A very atmospheric instrumental that would go weel between tracks

Iron Maiden - Number of The Beast

Well, most people on here accept that, but its also safe to say that they were the closest to making a big shift in the UK music industry since Oasis. Which sickens me. Two ways: 1) It's the fucking Libertines 2) Oasis is the benchmark Fucking NME. and you're point is what exactly? there's loads of better indie bands, past and present, than them

24 rules. That is all.

Here goes nothing... Libertines = over rated mediocre indie.... as for the arctic single - it's catchy, but it shouldn't be anywhere near #1. (I'm not saying there are better songs out at this moment - because singles are generally pap nowadays - but it isn't, shall we say, classic #1 material.)

Every so often I do album reviews. Here are a few I posted on my forum. "Fallen" by Evanescence The album that has brought the American metallers four hits singles (three of which charted in the top 10). The album, as a whole, is a very solid effort, with no poor songs. There are, however, a few stand out tracks. #1 single Bring Me To Life, the delightfully dark Haunted, and the tear jerkers in Hello and My Immortal are what lift this album above the "decent, solid" status. There are only, maybe, two tracks that don't quite follow through with the quality of the rest of the album. Tourniquet is quite bland, but is saved by a powerful chorus. My Last Breath doesn't quite have the same hooks as most of the other tracks, and does seem a little like a filler track. Whisper closes the album out well with the epic choral sound closing the album in a way that makes you want to hear more. Overall, a good, strong album with some stand out efforts. 7.5/10 Track Listing: 1. Going Under 2. Bring Me To Life 3. Everybody's Fool 4. My Immortal 5. Haunted 6. Tourniquet 7. Imaginary 8. Taking Over Me 9. Hello 10. My Last Breath 11. Whisper Check Out: Haunted, Bring Me To Life, My Immortal "Dance of Death" by Iron Maiden Latest offering from Heavy Metal legends led by Bruce Dickinson. Follow-up to Brave New World. Wildest Dreams and Rainmaker are decent enough openers. The latter probably a better song, but the former more catchy. No More Lies is a brilliant epic telling the story of the last supper, and the history-laddened Montsegur and Paschendale are strong points of the album. The first is the heaviest song they've written/recorded for years, and the latter is the true centre-piece of the album (along with Dance Of Death itself). Between Dance Of Death and Paschendale are the weaker offerings on the album. Not bad songs - they just don't seem to have that energy... that something. The album closes with Journeyman - and what's this? Maiden doing an acoustic track! (And WHAT a song it is too! A true spark of brilliance). Face In The Sand is also a very good track, with some truely masterful hooks. Whilst there are no bad songs on the album, one or two seem to just come up short. However, these tracks are good enough to tide you over until you hit the next masterpiece. Indeed, maybe they seem to be inferior because of the quality of the tracks surrounding them? Anyway, Bruce still manages to make even the lesser tracks seem of great importance and epic quality to that of some of the true brilliance of some of the others. A damn good album - no - a brilliant album. Track Listing: 1. Wildest Dreams 2. Rainmaker 3. No More Lies 4. Montsegur 5. Dance Of Death 6. Gates Of Tomorrow 7. New Frontier 8. Paschendale 9. Face In The Sand 10. Age Of Innocence 11. Journeyman Overall: 9 out of 10 Check Out: Paschendale, Face In The Sand "Futures" by Jimmy Eat World JEW return to the forefront of emotive rock with this offering. Where to start? Well, the beginning might be best. Indeed, title track Futures sets the general tone and pace of the album. A fantastic little chugger of a song that gets its hooks into you early and drags you along on its emotive wings. Second song, Just Tonight, is also a catchy effort and follows on nicely from the title track - even managing to lift the listener with another strong chorus. Of course, we I couldn't review this album without mentioning the truly inspiring Pain. The first single off the album, and the best. I cannot stress how good this song is - it must be just heard to be believed. Closely followed behind this outstanding piece of musicianship is the well crafted and steadily paced Drugs Or Me. The acoustic guitar gets a run out on the good song Kill. Nothing Wrong sees the band start with a heavy bluster of guitars, leading into another contemporary classic with a brilliant riff/chorus combination. In short, this album is truly marvelous. Pain, Futures, Drugs Or Me and Nothing Wrong stands out in the crowd, but all the tracks are good in their own right. Track Listing: 1. Futures 2. Just Tonight 3. Work 4. Kill 5. World You Love 6. Pain 7. Drugs Or Me 8. Polaris 9. Nothing Wrong 10. Night Drive 11. 23 12. Shame (Bonus Track) 13. When I Want (Bonus Track) Overall: 9.5 out of 10 Check Out: Pain, Futures, Drugs Or Me, Nothing Wrong.

Iron Maiden all way the way! Rock In Rio <<< one of the best live albums ever! also, I'd pick up "Seventh son of a Seventh son". A very strong concept album, with a slightly diff. sound from Maiden than you'll probably used to. Worth it for the title track, Only The Good Die Young, and Moonchild alone! Plus its got hits like Can I play With Madness, The Clairvoyant and Infinite Dreams on it!

Hmmm... I think they want everyone to know exactly what happens, rather than lots of whispers and false rumours that would undoubtedly go round if this was kept private and they simply announced she was out.

I've just stumbled across this thread. Could someone just explain how the positions were determined? Cheers.

You mean when he made a horrendous tackle on the Notts F player? (I've never actually seen that match, just mainly clips of Gazza laying there injured). On a smaller scale, Sheffield United's had two in the last 10 years or so. The first is Dane Whitehouse. A damned good left winger that formed an integral part of the side. Has taken years to recoved from his loss. **curses Gareth Ainsworth** The other is Simon Tracey, who was on the verge of and England call up (squad player that is, not necassarily #1), when we were in the top flight. He then broke his leg. Bummer. He never quite played as well since.

Sheffield United Can't believe the start we've made to the season! We're not even playing that well.

"Give Me The Fear" by Tokyo Dragons A very strong, decent, re-playable album.
