Mike seems like a genuinely good dude, and whether I like DH or not, I think it's respectable for a band to try new things and evolve rather than resting on their past accomplishments.

You said that you were swamped but would get to it. I just want to say that you blew me away! A huge interview with Schleibaum! Anyway, I like what he had to say about who cares what kind of metal is what and all of that. People should be enjoying their whatever music they are listening to. If something doesn't strike a chord with you or it doesn't particularly tickle your pickle, don't listen to it. Also, it is interesting how there is this huge stigma attached to being involved with Victory and it seems as though DH has managed to not be lumped in with the rest of those bands. I've always noticed that as well. I think it's because DH has a certain raw talent that most of those bands lack. They also aren't as manufactured looking as some of those Victory bands. Those bands looked pre-packaged and shoved out there, not for their music, but for their look and style. Lastly, I like what he says about people who speak positively on message boards. I have been on this site for a while but don't have nearly as many posts as people who have been on here half as long. The reason being that I don't come on here to bash people or argue. It gets really old reading some of these posts that argue the merits of certain metal or what constitutes a "metal" band. I don't know how some of these guys have the time or energy to post about stuff like that. Anyway, this was a great back to school present from my favorite website. I really appreciate this and look forward to more DH stuff on the site. Well, gotta get back to class. Thanks again and Go Gators. -Double D, Gainesville, FL, University of Florida campus Hey guys,

There are three uses. The second one should be "accept". Also, I much prefer em dashes ("—") to parentheses when people are speaking. Sorry for making the first comment a grammar Nazi post. It was a good writeup of a great interview with a great band. Search the post for “except”. There are three uses. The second one should be “accept”.
