Thank you. Have you seen Xi Xing Ji, it is a reimagining of Journey to the West. You might be interested, that it, if you are fine with watching some CGI (which is pretty good).

I have NOT seen it...but omg, I totally should! I love JTTW (as is probably evident by the site title, lol), and any sort of iterations of it. Thank you for the recommendation, I'll check it out!

In all seriousness, Wes Borland is really good with a guitar.

I swear, i just posted about Limp Bizkit lastnight. Honestly most bands from that era are better than most mainstream. Today's music is souless in my opinion.

I was just gonna say - @ENFLICTED just posted about Limp Bizkit! LOL. Wes is incredibly talented, no lies. The whole band is/was, we just live in a different era now. That sound will take some coming back around to for most. Give it a few years. It'll happen. That said, there's no shortage of incredible underground - by yesteryears or todays standard - and I'm happy to offer suggestions. Always.

@paintkiller I dunno man, Fred Durst had such a unique sound, he had such a talent for bringing hip hop style lyrics to metal, and he pulled it off so well. Then again, ZZ Top changed minds when they came around old style blues and rocked out.

@ENFLICTED no arguments on Durst being talented and groundbreaking! There's still Nu Metal being made, I'm just saying I don't think it'll catch on like wildfire again for a while yet. I was listening to Prong the other day - def Nu Metal flavors in there, also "dated". Every happens in cycles. In a few years we'll be discussing the NEW Nu Metal bands, watch!

Im def down for that. I want the 90's to come back lmao

Nu-Metal is back, I think. Everywhere I go, I seem to hear Linkin Park, Slipknot and even Trapt (yes, I know about the controversy). Frankly , I will take it over whoever is popular these days (is NSYNC still popular?).

break shit is unironcially modern art cannot explain why

If Nu Metal is back, I haven't heard it. But then again, I rarely listen to radio, or anything alike, the only thing that plays around here, is awful mumble rap, and r&b. I've honestly moved on from Nu Metal, MetalCore all the way. \m/

@enflicted Here is one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n812rfvvteo

I don't wanna be that guy, but that song was awful, not the Limp Bizkit I knew =(

@enflicted I know, the album varies in quality, but it is just proof that Limp Bizkit (and others) are still around.

I am doing alright, just my studies have returned, so I have devoted quite a bit of time taking care of that. How are you doing as of late?

Good deal. I presumed as much, but thought I'd holler regardless since ya crossed my mind. Good juju on studies moving forward. Things here are well enough to not warrant complaining about!

By the way, the service was fiber optic before, so dial-up to me seems like two giant leaps back. If push comes to shove, I might need scale down all images and possibly remove some picture intensive parts of the website.

Sounds more like they want to switch to a "fixed wireless" system, basically like cellular data except you use it for home internet. I doubt they actually mean "dial-up", no ISP in their right mind would switch their customers to something that terrible for modern internet usage

It's still a leap back (wired via fiber compared to wireless), I don't understand why they'd be doing this (the cost of rolling out a fiber system comes to mind, but if it's already there, why bother switching?)

You have a point that it could be fixed wireless, since the company is trying to launch a mobile division that I believe is failing, so there is that.

If you hear about dial-up, run. Where I'm from, DSL's a thing of the past now
