JUMPING DARKNESS PARADE: DAATH’S EYAL LEVI THANKS YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS

You guys have proven me right. At least I think you have. Could be that all the anti social, acne ridden, socially retarded, fucktard trolls decided not to comment on my previous post, but something tells me that this just isn’t the case. I think you guys came out en-masse and stated who you were. Haters and non-haters alike. Its cool to see you guys actually getting along for once, too.

I don’t give a fuck about peace and love and I certainly do enjoy flame wars, but at the end of the day its nice to see that you guys can just put down the weapons and chill when time-out is called. Kinda like the American and German soldiers did on Christmas eves during WWI. If you don’t believe me, look it up. Just scanning the ages and professions of all you motherfuckers makes it clear to me that you’re not just a bunch of chickenshits that hide behind fake names. You’re real people, with real jobs, and real lives, who support this genre and can be extremely opinionated at times. So kudos to all of you for keeping this shit going and proving that there actually is a place for intelligent, educated, and opinionated metalheads.

Take it eays and I’ll find a way to piss you guys off again ASAP.

    Thank you for coming up with such a creative idea. It’s nice to see people put down the blades for a few moments as well. Of course, I forsee some of us going back to that post to use some of the revealed information in arguments.

    randomguy1: douche

    randomguy2: that’s all you got? at least I’m not a fucking librarian!

    randomguy1: oh, yeah, you work as an IT tech, your life is SO much more exhilarating than mine!

    etc. etc. etc. Haha.

  • seveword

    It is nice to have someone who is in the biz blog for this site (no offense to Axl and Vince and the rest of the shit-flingers).

  • Gah

    Forgo haters – or don’t. ‘Cause then life’d be colourful with rainbows n’ shit.

    • Eyal Levi

      More hate = More love

  • Jin

    YOU JUST DID WITH THAT BLOGPOST

    FUCK YOU

    • Shinaain

      Wow, check it out, Eyal: It’s really just that easy. \m/

  • http://www.last.fm/user/Demigod1 Tyler

    I’m going to buy a Daath’s latest album just because this guy is so awesome. Keep the blogs coming man.

    • Eyal Levi

      Much appreciated!

  • jackattack

    You’re the shiz, Eyal.

  • MetalRod

    Just smoked and am listening to DAATH…

    SHIT IS FUCKING AWESOME!!!

    • http://dmxrr15@hotmail.com IsntaTOTALdouchebag10

      I just got home from seeing Iron and Wine for free, who is almost all acoustic but is also awesome, and now I am also high as kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite, and listening to Daath, I dig them all the time, but especially right now. Fuck I love listening to good metal when I am stoned.

      • Eyal Levi

        Our music is by stoned people for stoned people

  • groverXIII

    I’m glad that there are real people posting here… otherwise, it would mean that the voices in my head have figured out how to use the internet.

    • voices

      we have

    • voices

      And we want cupcakes.

  • SE7EN

    Amen Eyal. And thanks for having a blog and not being a pompous dickhead like many guitarists/band members.

    • SomeKid

      What he said.

    • Eyal Levi

      Being in a band gives you no right to be pompous

      Its just music

      Try saving lives, or being a teacher, or a Doctor. Maybe then. And those people are typically humble

  • Dysenteric

    I’ll admit I’m no fan of Daath, but you seem like a nice geezer.

    • Eyal Levi

      I’ve got my moments

  • therealmetalmatt

    Well said Mr. Levi

  • That Other Guy

    “American and German soldiers did on Christmas eves during WWI.”

    America wasn’t even involved in the War when the first christmas truce took place. it was British and French troops that had the truces with The triple Alliance forces. There is absolutely no mention of American armies in the truces. Just about every source there is from British Empire/French soldiers. The Americans didn’t even join the war ’til the very end, i don’t think they were even around long enough to be part of one of the truce’s, having entered the War in 1917. Look it up…

    • Eyal Levi

      you caught me

      I was going to correct that

      OOPS

      • tom

        They flayed football against each other (soccer) too, how awsome!

      • That Other Guy

        And here i was thinking you were just ignorant to history.
        That’s my bad. lol

        Keep up the good blogging!

  • Anton

    Ahh Shucks Eyal now you gone made me turn all red :P

    Stay real MOFO!!

  • Marc

    Cool

  • Charlie B

    American did have a truce with the Germans in the winter 1944. It was called the Battle of the Bulge.

    If Eyal read through the Dimebagthread today he would see that we really are all just a bunch of asshats though….at least a good segment of the people on here anyway

    • Eyal Levi

      I did read it.

      Couldn’t believe some of the shit I was reading in there

      I figured that with the intelligence on this board that people would be giving respect and love where its due but shit…. not everyone here was born before 1990 and in some cases I guess you “had to be there”

      • Slaughterhouse

        Just haters, as normal…its sad really…everyone is always so quick to point out what they don’t like about something rather than pointing out what they do like about it!

  • http://www.myspace.com/437666934 Noel

    here here.

  • Ziltoid

    Agreed. Daath certainly isn’t my thing at all, but you certainly seem to be a pretty cool guy, and a good writer as well who has covered a lot of really interesting topics. Keep up the quality posts. You’ve got my respect as well.

    • Ziltoid

      Whoops, this was meant as a response to NukeDukem.

  • I am James?

    Hey Eyal, Love the posts man.
    Also man i wondering if Daath had any plans off visting my grand country of australia. I think the metalheads of australia could really use a could hit of Daath.
    Keep up the great posts and sweet tunes.

    • Eyal Levi

      Glad you’re digging the music and the posts. More of both to come!

      We’d love to come to Australia. We just need that offer!

  • http://www.myspace.com/uglydirge aaron m.

    hey eyal,

    just wanted to say thanks for being cool as shit.

  • JRTME

    Eyal,

    Great idea man. It’s always cool when musicians in bands I like turn out to be forward thinking intelligent guys.

    New CD is cool (Yes I own it). Keep Killin’ It Bro.

  • sYgnal

    I’m a little late to the party & just responded to Mr. Levi’s last post with my life story(in short). That article put my defenses at ease and I posted a link to a jam my band did a little while ago. So,If you like long winded, Bluesy/Psychedelic hard rock jams then check it out.

    Anyways… I really enjoy(ed) your insightful & thought provoking articles. Keep up the good work & cool ideas!!

  • jordi

    my #1 fukin metal band!!!!!!! keep it brutal!!!!!!!!!

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Dan-Parsons/825564814 Dan Parsons

    In all honesty, I can only hope that one day my band becomes popular enough to the point where metalsucks will give me a blog on their site. If not, hopefully we can open for you guys someday in the distant future.

    Till then, Keep it up man!

  • enyggma

    Dammit! You’re a cool guy and I listened to Daath’s music on your myspace and really liked it. I guess I’m going to have to add your newest record to the long list of CDs I want. My wife is gonna kill me! ;P
