Don't get much coverage there?!? They are from the UK, and that's where they get most of their coverage! Not that it means very much, they never got much coverage;-)
:lol: Sad but true :-(
I've been getting Kerrang! constantly for over 10 years and have only seen ND in them a handfull of times. I was also getting Metal Hammer, Terrorizer, Raw and a few others at various times over the years aswell (soon turning to MH full-time - K! is just a tabloid rag now), and I've never seen them in these either except for an album review in MH!
Ok, the UK has some great home-grown bands, but they get crap coverage here now. Take Cradle of Filth. They were the UK's biggest black metal band for years, but all the mags kept going on about Deicide. It took Cradle 3 albums to get noticed here :-(
The Almighty coverage was worse. The Wildhearts are finally getting some coverage again, but it's still crap. Pick up a magazine here and all you can see is Linkin Park, Metallica, Lostprophets, The Strokes, Him, Inme, Slipknot (even though they've been doing bugger all), Eminem(in a metal mag!).
Oh, and another thing about UK mags. Iron Maiden released Dance of Death last year and all we got was a 2-page review. That's for Maiden for smeg's sake! No interviews, no tour news, absolutely bugger all. The UK is utter crap for metal :-(
Anyway, I have majorly digressed, back to the point :-)
Lee Dorian was part of the original lineup of ND, since then they have had over 100% turnover. There is not one original band member left. This is a good thing, the current lineup has pretty much been stable for 10+ years and is much better than the original linuep.
The only name that I know in ND would be Barney, but I don't even know his full name, I just know he's chunky with a frizzy hair cut :-D
Umm.. it's funny, very funny.. I hear Cathedral and I laugh, I can't believe it's the same guy! Go out and get ND Scum, you will be shocked. I like it and it's definately a classic album, but to be honest Lee Dorian sounds like someone being gagged while they have a painful bowl movement. Don't even try to make out the lyrics by listening, it's not going to happen! It all sounds like grunts and groans:-P
Sounds like the stuff I'd like a lot :-D
