Voivod Appreciation[views:6820][posts:40]____________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 8:37pm - vein_water ""] as of late I've been really diggin on Dimension Hatross and War and Pain. For the voivod fans out there, what are your favorites. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 8:46pm - the_reverend ""] killing technology |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 8:48pm - the_reverend ""] I just looked up the other 2 albums that you mentioned. I like some of the war and Pain and demention hatross tracks too. I think I might need to get those. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 8:49pm - vein_water ""] yeah if you're into prog thrash metal before it became cool with crappy bands like Dillinger Escape Plan, then Voivod is the band. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 8:55pm - the_reverend ""] killing technology is more straight up than that. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 8:58pm - vein_water ""] yeah, I guess Nothingface is really the start of Voivod being the next Rush |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 9:26pm - thuringwethil ""] VOIVOD !!!!!! awesome band, every microsecond they've recorded |

| _______________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 9:28pm - thuringwethil ""] anything with Piggy |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 9:32pm - the_reverend ""] the newest one had it's moments, but wasn't too good. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 10:13pm - vein_water ""] Katorz was....okay. I agree it has its moments but overall it was a letdown. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 11:49pm - demondave ""] Killing Technology is the best. However, one of my favorite songs is Tribal Convictions from Dimension Hatross. That said, Run Like A Blower - Eat Like A Grinder |
| ________________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 11:57pm - thuringwethil ""] you guys gotta see the DVOD-1 dvd, it's got all the music videos from Hatross. RIP PIGGY |

| ______________________________________ [Sep 24,2007 1:25pm - the_reverend ""] brain scan is one of my favorite songs. so I gess I like hatross |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 24,2007 1:28pm - RichHorror ""] Nothingface is one of my favorite albums of all time. |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 24,2007 1:35pm - Seth/Hekseri ""] RRROOOOAAARRRR |
| _________________________________ [Sep 24,2007 2:27pm - C.DEAD ""] RichHorror said:Nothingface is one of my favorite albums of all time. Fuck yeah man, thats my fav. Voivod record! "Killing Technology" is a VERY close second however. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 24,2007 3:35pm - GoatCatalyst ""] RichHorror said:Nothingface is one of my favorite bands of all time. ... dude |
| _________________________________ [Sep 24,2007 3:40pm - shamash ""] ^yes |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 24,2007 6:34pm - dreadkill ""] i love voivod so much. one of the most unique and interesting bands ever. strangely enough, i love the outer limits. it is probably my favorite, but nothingface and killing technology are right there. i love the old stuff too and the last two albums, with snake and newsted, were also really great to my ears. |

| ___________________________________ [Sep 24,2007 6:39pm - dreadkill ""] it is a travesty |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 4:11pm - thuringwethil ""] I've got "Ripping Headaches" stuck in my head right now one of the best bands |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 4:27pm - Josh_Martin ""] THE HELLDRIVER!!!! 1st 4 albums are great 1st 2 albums are fucking amazing. Its like if Eddie Van Halen started a thrash band. |
| ______________________________ [Oct 2,2008 5:33pm - Seth ""] All albums up to Rat were good! :cd: |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 5:41pm - ThirdKnuckle ""] I think Hatross is their best album but my favorite is Phobos. I love them because when thrash was becoming boring & formulaic they were always up for doing something different and interesting. Piggy was a genius; should have been on the cover of every guitar magazine Missing Sequences, Tornado, Chaosmongers... awesome |
| __________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 7:32pm - MASlayer ""] Piggy was a guitar genius hands down...extremely underrated |
| ________________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 8:20pm - Conservationist ""] Dimension Hatross is brilliant. Rev, you need that. I agree with Josh Martin about the albums to get. I would avoid anything after "Negatron." Oooff..... |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 2,2008 8:32pm - thuringwethil ""] Piggy really was a great guitarist. When I interviewed Away he said they used to jam on Emerson Lake and Palmer songs |
| __________________________________ [Oct 3,2008 3:09am - demondave ""] [img] I am a huge fan of Killing Technology. |

| ____________________________________ [Oct 3,2008 8:12am - Josh_Martin ""] My Piggy story (I may have told this before but fuck it, I'm bored) On my first big tour with AC we played in Corpus Christi, TX. Voivod was playing a different club in Corpus that night (they were on the Negatron tour) We were touring with Incantation and we switched slots with them so we could catch the Voivod show. Seth had met Piggy back in the 80's when Executioner played with Voivod on the Killing Technology tour. Piggy remembered Seth and we were all talking and Piggy said he'd come watch our show. Piggy showed up about 5 minutes after our set ended. Now normally I would've been bummed but that turned out to be one of the WORST shows we ever played. (and I mean that in a bad way. sometimes a terrible AC show can be totally awesome but that show just sucked in every way possible) So Piggy was doubly cool. He actually showed up like he said he would (most people saying they'll come see your band are full of shit) and he missed our totally shitty set. I would've been embarrassed if he saw that show. Cool guy, amazing guitar player. Too bad they couldn't remove his cancer and put it Newsted. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 3,2008 9:42am - thuringwethil ""] there should be a Voivod tribute show someday. who wanna? I call "Ravenous Medicine" |
