Appreciate the epic brutal amazingness that is Bland Street Bloom here. And all of SikTh for that matter.

Ehhhh I'm not too worried about it anymore, but surprises are kewl.

Also I have a feeling we will see a SikTh reunion at some point in the future.  Just seems right.

I like some of their stuff, but their harsh vocals are kind of annoying.

yeah that's right. Here's the video (with lyrics.) This is an older version of the song though, from an EP, some of it is a bit different to the album version
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-BzWuc16GE

According to the album liner notes this was supposed to be a chapter from a book Mikee was writing, I don't know what became of that though.
Man I love SikTh so much. There's always something new to hear, even in songs you've heard many times already. And their lyrics are so great, Pussyfoot with the best in my opinion.

Also, in case you haven't heard it, here's Suffice, one of the first songs they ever wrote. It's not as technical as most of their other material, but ye gods is it heavy. Some great vocals too, especially towards the end

For the record, I believe the best guitar work from all their material is the final piece in that clip, the end of 'Skies of Millenium Night' starting at '8:00.' An amazing piece of music, great guitar harmonies, a great drumbeat, just fantastic.

Also, Pin's guitars are so sexy. For those who don't know, he plays Blackmachine https://www.blackmachine.net/ which are custom made and damn beautiful. I was lucky enough to play his 8 string when I went to his house ( :hat) and it was a thing of beauty  :metal

Once again, I'm jealous that you got to take lessons with Pin.


Post your SikTh tattoo! (I remember it being really cool.  If you feel like digging up the tattoo thread, post it there).
