Never heard of a kick ass gal singer named Pam, sorry ho.. u should have checked her out at the signing, she is one hot looking gal too.. Why isn't she fronting a "successful" metal band? Because she didn't have the oppportunity of sleeping with Michael Amott while Arch Enemy was looking for a new singer. (I like AE, but i just had to point that out) Also, Smite The Righteous is some sick shit, and Pam's a damn good vocalist. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 30,2006 8:30pm - brian_dc ""] I'll be honest and say that I first heard Smite the Righteous live and I didn't like the overall product, just reminded me of too many swedish loving bands. But I did notice then and there that the drummer is amazing and Pam was really solid. Then I listened to the recordings, literally minutes ago and I think I like them a lot more. And Pam's vocals are sick...honestly, her voice reminds me a little bit of the vocalist of The Esoteric...who I think was in Coalesce at one point. Not sure though. I agree...Angela is a hack. And Arch Enemy was only really great up to Burning Bridges. wow, why did I carry on so long about this. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 30,2006 8:32pm - brian_dc ""] oh...with that said. Anyone from STR, you should probably take the flyer from the Dee Dee's show down on your myspace...it's a bit outdated. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 30,2006 9:13pm - the_reverend ""] exodus: (mainstage) man, that singer sure did look like the guys that says "NERDS" in the revenge of the nerds movies. His voice was so old school it was brilliant. I head some people like pam bitching about the selection of music and I didn't care. They played some old ones and the tracks off the new CD that I liked so I don't care. chimaira: (mainstage) I was expecting kevin talley to be behind the drums, but he wasn't. I totally forgot that they got their original drummer back. His bassdrop was painful. Their lighting was nothing short of awesome seeing as it was set up in 20 minutes and was very blinding. It lead for some amazing backlighted shots. I'm not a chimaira fan to say the least. They must have thought people didn't like them too cause they brought out girls in chimaira-gear to dance and then do the vince neal thing with girls pawing at him from the side. phil from all that remains came out and joined them on stage for parts of a song. why don't I like chimaira? well... they do have some parts to their music that are kick ass, but they stray too far into nu-metal from the fear factory sounding music they make (oh wait... fear factory had like three numetal CDs). I like fear factory, but older stuff. |

What? You don't fucken like Angela!? She's so fucken hot because she's a girl in a metal band. A GIRL WITH A REAL VAGINA! YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT FUCKEN SUCCESSFUL, I'VE NEVA HEARD OF YOUR BAND SO IT MUST SUCK!" |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 30,2006 9:25pm - the_reverend ""] Arch Enemy: (mainstage) they had a TON of music on their set list. When they came out, the wireless mic kept cutting out (although I think it was just cutting out from the monitors). Angela threw kind of a fit on stage so they got her a wired mic which kept chripping loudly. I don't know if it was feedback or what. Also, there was no flash allowed. That sucked and made most of my pictures crap. Actually, it really pervs me when you see bands for YEARS and then suddenly, you can't use flash anymore (ie: nile and in flames). anyhow, I shot the first 3 songs and then listened to another song before departing the show to checking in to the hotel. not sure if this show ended better or not |

| _________________________________ [May 1,2006 2:50am - pam nli ""] Rev, brian, and seedbassist- Thanks. I guess if I'm not in a money-sucking greedy commercial shmetal band I must suck. The no-flash thing is so you can't see Angela's age spots. |
| ___________________________________ [May 3,2006 6:23pm - stillborn ""] So - I am getting the whole stereotype asumptions about mtv and being ‘trendy’. Well, I am a 39 year old female, listening to metal since 24 years. I am the old-school metal generation, going from Sabbath to Metallica, Slayer, Exodus to the Death Metal wave of the early 90ies. I am a huge fan of the first generation of Sweden Metal, bands like Dismember, Entombed, At The Gates and Carnage. This is why I followed Michael Amotts musical career. Carcass, Spiritual Beggars and Arch Enemy. I love all their albums, no matter who is the vocalist. And by the way, I despise the ‘new’ Headbangers Ball and its uncritical mainstream approach to this once so rebellious type of music. As for your band Pam – I checked it out on myspace. 3rd rate At The Gates rip-off, just badly executed (very untight). You guys should learn to play your instruments first and write some original tunes, maybe then some label will be interested in you. Goes for the vox as well. I stopped counting the times YOU used the f-word in your lyrics. Very ‘classy’ indeed. And your looks. C’mon, you are a chubby, bland faced teenage girl. You shouldn’t point your fingers at anybody but yourself. And the way you talk about a woman you have never met in person makes you look even worse. Frustration and teenage angst are your motives. Trying to make yourself look better by putting others down isn’t working when you want to gain respect. It’s the lowest form of self-promotion. Well, I will stop wasting my time on you. Grow up, become good at what you do and you will get recognition for this eventually. Angela Gossow started out in 1991 in an underground band – just like you. (you probably weren’t even born then). She has certainly paid her dues, being an active musician since 15 years. You have a long way to come, girl. But with your bitchy attitude you wont get far. How I miss the times where metal fans were supportive of each other. Today, its all elbows, bitching, negativity and jealousy. Tatiana |
| _________________________________ [May 3,2006 6:27pm - brian_dc ""] all other things aside here...Pam is not a teenage girl. I want to say mid-20s. Pretty much everything else is up to opinion, I guess. |
| _____________________________________ [May 3,2006 6:27pm - the_reverend ""] that post is funny. pam, you should probably thank her since she underestimated your age by like 10 years. |
| ___________________________________ [May 3,2006 8:57pm - stillborn ""] I judged her from the way she is writing her posts. |
| _____________________________________ [May 3,2006 9:08pm - the_reverend ""] she's completely childish, but I assure you, she is like totally OMG old. my gf and I even photographed her wedding. LOLzzz!j!!!!!j |
| ____________________________________ [May 3,2006 9:19pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] Pam loves me. |
| ___________________________________ [May 3,2006 9:28pm - stillborn ""] Angela got together with Michael a year after she joined Arch Enemy. They are together since. That hardly makes her a whore. So, I guess Pam is married to one of the guys in the band, haha.. |
| ___________________________________ [May 3,2006 9:30pm - stillborn ""] basically its pam and a bunch of her uncritical friends on this forum.. i get it. have a nice time bitching and backstabbing.. i am ouf of here. |
| _________________________________ [May 3,2006 9:34pm - succubus ""] wow..you're how old? and arguing on the internet? give me a break...I can understand you like a band and it bugs you because people insulted a musician you respect, but coming on here and talking shit about someone who regularly posts on here won't get you anywhere. I've met angela a few times, taken her photo many times, posed shots and live shots, i think she's cool, but I know Pam a lot more and respect and care about her, she speaks her mind and i respect her for that. also the way you worded certain things leads me to believe english is not your first language (not meant as an insult since english is not my first language) ok i've typed enough and drank too much |
| ____________________________________ [May 3,2006 9:41pm - Sacreligion ""] stillborn, all you essentially did is exactly what you're trying to call pam out for, speaking your mind about someone you don't even know and making assumptions about their character everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but it doesn't help to contradict yourself in the same breath the thing with arch enemy is that they don't write particularly innovative music, it's just that a lot of younger kids are on their nuts because they're "technical" and have a female singer who can scream, so when something gets over-hyped and over-played as much as they are it leaves a lot of room for people to get annoyed |
| _____________________________________ [May 3,2006 10:06pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] Yeah, but her band members are wearing THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER and PANTERA shirts in their promo shots. Oh, and camo pants, hahaha. |
