(Jack Grants is the name I use in my band and book) So you'd say it's an English heritage, to loathe the French ? As for anything else, if someone's gonna hate me, I'd like to know why. Being French doesn't seem a good reason to me.
And saying shit like the French are always surrendering is ridiculous, especially when your only argument is a picture found on the internet. When you don't know History or any othert subject, you don't talk about it as if you were an expert.
Unfortunately, I know I'm gonna face that but it won't stop me from coming.

JackGrants said:Oh man, you're going too far for Josh. He doesn't know about anything prior to the 20th century. He hasn't heard about the French helping the US get their independence. About French kings ruling England, etc.
If only nobody converted to Christianity or any other religion.
The U.S. wouldn't have won the revolutionary war without help from the French. Apparently, I have some distant relation to Marquis De LaFayette. I don't know how, but in any case, that guy was a hero during the revolution.
[Dec 3,2008 10:28pm - JackGrants ""]
It's nice to see some people acknowledge that. There was a pro-French sentiment at the time, we can see it notably with the suffix -ville that was added to many towns. But all that's almost forgotten, those who hate the French don't give a shit, they don't need a reason.
Anyway, good for you, Samantha, a relation to the Marquis de Sade would have been cool too hehe

It's retarded that nobody's mentioned Simone de Beauvior, Deathspell Omega or Merrimack in this thread.
And let's not forget conducting above ground nuclear weapons testing well after the rest of the world realized that it was batshit insane; eat a dick French Polynesians, enjoy your cancer.
Patrick Roy's still a faggot.
[Dec 4,2008 6:34am - JackGrants ""]
There would be a lot to mention, good and bad like for any other country.
Nuclear testing is crap but we shouldn't condemn people for what their governments do, it's insane to have nuclear weapons in the first place. Jacques Chirac is a dick, Sarkozy's a dick like most world leaders are. Unfortunately, the whole world doesn't need these testings to enjoy the cancers some are trying to sell us.
As to Patrick Roy, I'm gonna have to take your word for it but he's canadian.
[Dec 4,2008 6:45am - BobNOMAAMRooney nli ""]
I was actually giving France credit for nuclear testing because it's fucking awesome and Pacific Islanders are subhuman mutants to begin with.
[Dec 4,2008 7:11am - JackGrants ""]
Oh I see, my mistake, I'm already used to the negative comments going to the whole French nation without exceptions. It doesn't change my opinion on nuclear shit though.
But if you want to shoot a cheap Troma movie in those cute radioactive islands, go ahead.

and unless i missed it, no Blut Aus Nord either.
[Dec 4,2008 7:53am - JackGrants ""]
You're absolutely right, Yeti, Blut Aus Nord deserves to be cited. Also, Vindsval, the main guy in BAN, released an awesome (and very rare) cd called Supremacy under the moniker The Eye, check it out if you can.

Are there some good metal shops in Mass ?
[Dec 6,2008 3:52am - MadOakDevin ""]
it actually has alot more new brunswick influence than quebec. i would know this.
[Dec 6,2008 6:56am - JackGrants ""]
What are the influences ?
[Dec 6,2008 7:24am - Dankill ""]
Armageddon Shop in Providence RI is probably the est underground shop in the area. The local chain Newbury Comics is pretty damn sharp with metal though. Some locations better then others, but you can find some gems.
[Dec 6,2008 7:52am - JackGrants ""]
Sounds good, anything around Springfield ?

I heard SCD toured in the US, ever got to see them ?
[Dec 7,2008 9:27am - MikeOvDecrepitvde ""]
Yup, a few times. They're awesome guys.

Yeah, Benighted kicks ass, you should check Kronos and Recueil Morbide for other good brutal death bands

i wish they would do a headlining tour... i keep missing them cause they keep opening for terrible bands.
[Dec 8,2008 2:34pm - JackGrants ""]
I hear you, In Flames... that would have been ok years ago but now... Maybe Gojira will be playing at Hellfest, one of the best metal festivals in the world.

That's it, I found a place in Springfield so I'll be there for the months of April/May/June. Seems like there's gonna be some good gigs around there : amon amarth, enslaved...

We usually head out to Purgatory Chasm (crazy natural gorge that's full of cool caves where the natives hid from pilgrim assholes) with a flashlight full of joints.
[Mar 2,2009 3:55pm - JackGrants ""]
Thanks for the warning but my girlfriend lives in WS so I'm heading there for now

Sounds cool, I want to see some nice forests and stuff. Even better if there's some weed involved.
