Scott Ian(Anthrax) signature Randall amplifier!
I only heard about this amp a few days via Scott Ian’s Twitter feed (@Scott_Ian) if you don’t follow him already he tweets a lot and answers lots of fan questions so definitely worth checking out. The amp is the new Scott Ian Signature Randall RM100SI head and cab which feature a distinctive grill cloth design featuring what looks like the Dharma Initiative logo from Lost with a Pentegram in the centre. The 100 Watt amp is an all tube design featuring JJ EL34 power tubes and Randall’s MTS preamp modules designed by Scott Ian and legendary rack and boutique amp designer and builder Dave Friedman. Other features include: MIDI in/thru, Master Volume, Presence, Density controls, Parallel loop w/front panel mix control Series loop, Rear tube bias section, Slave out, 3-button MIDI footswitch included and World voltage AC input selector (100/120/220/240).
“Malcolm” Module
The Malcolm is what Scott uses for classic rock rhythm tones. It pays obvious homage to the greatest of rock rhythm players.
1987 Module
The 1987 is Scott’s most used module. It duplicates the tone Scott got with his JCM800 and used with Anthrax in the late ’80s.
The Nuts Module
In Poker, the Nuts is when you absolutely have the best hand you can have. The Nuts module is absolutely the most over the top hi gain tone you can get.
A 4 x 12″ Straight front Speaker Cabinet is also available equipped with 4 Celestion Heritage 30s. Made with the best quality Baltic birch. Heavy duty removable casters. Scott Ian Signature graphic steel grille.

It's amazing what $250 will get you nowadays
Man, back in the day when I first started playing guitar(1987), a $250 guitar wouldn't be worth using as a doorstop, much less a useable instrument. I'm not saying these are 'pro-quality', but it's a helluva fuckin' deal. Are you kidding me? Just look at that thing! If I was a kid and wanted to play guitar and I got this for Xmas, I'd shit my pants. hehehe

Uriah Heep - "Rainbow Demon"
From Demons And Wizards (1972). Fantastic album. One of the greatest albums in 70's.
There rides the rainbow demon
On his horse of crimson fire
Black shadows are following closely
On the heels of his desire
Ridin' on in the mist of morning
No one dared to stand in his way
Possessed by some distant calling
Riding on through night and day
Rainbow demon
Pick up your heart and run
Rainbow demon
Lives for his sword and his gun
There rides the rainbow demon
On his horse of crimson fire
Black shadows are following closely
On the heels of his desire
Ridin' on in the mist of morning
No one dared to stand in his way
Possessed by some distant calling
Riding on through night and day
Rainbow demon
Pick up your heart and run
Rainbow demon
Lives for his sword and his gun

Dissection - "God of Forbidden Light"
Hail Lucifer!
Dark bringer of light
Hail Lucifer!
Giver of eternal sight
Wisdom bringer - We call upon thy name
Bestow upon us thy infernal blessings
Of the inner divine flame
Open our eyes Mighty Father
So that we may see
Guide our steps on the Burning Path
Of liberation and ecstasy
Titanic Prometheus - God of forbidden light
Your Black Flame we bear inside as a legacy of your might
Illumination's father - God of shadowless light
Black Sun of dark mysteries - Restore the dragon's sight
Mighty god of darkness
All salutations to thee
Your gift of knowledge and rebellion
Will set our spirits free
Lylusay Tateros Volt Sids Lucifer!

Marduk - "Accuser/Opposer" (live @ Summerbreeze 2008)
Accuser / Opposer
(from the album "Rom 5:12" (2007))
(Exorcízó te, immundíssime spíritus, omnis incúrsio adversárii, omne phantásma, omnis legio:
in nómine Dómini nostri (Jesu Christi) eradicáre, et effugáre ab hoc plásmate Dei.
Ipse tibi ímperat, qui te de supérnis coelórum in inferióra terrae demérgi praecépit.
Ipse tibi ímperat, qui mari, ventis, et tempestátibus imperávit.)
Accuser, accuser,
Exhaustless fountain of poison divine,
I ate of Death to cleanse my flesh of God
To make me thy entrance to the veins of the world,
Now as we turn to seek thy face,
Pour down on us thy redeeming wrath,
For you will ascend into heaven,
And will exalt thy throne above God,
And you will sit also upon the Mount of the Congregation,
In the sides of North,
And you will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
And will be like the Most High,
Yet where you brought down to the sides of the pit,
Which we now must merge with the skies.
Opposer, opposer,
Core, marrow and essence of my Will,
I renounce this flesh in the name of thy praise,
To kindle the coals of Salvation's spring.
I drank of hell to cleanse my soul of God,
To reach the light in which thou dwellest,
Adversary, adversary,
Glorious slenderer and everything's adversary.
Whose blade alone split the tongues of the world,
Yet shall the highest of truths mark thy crown,
Now as we turn to seek thy face,
Pour down on us thy redeeming wrath.
Satyricon Guitar Lesson #4 (Black Crow On A Tombstone)
Hidden under its wings
The darkness you wish to hide
Bearer of ugly truths
Grey...
Somber morning
Through blurry glass
The black crow
Here comes the messenger
Found bringer of dark days
Here comes the messenger
Black crow on a tombstone
Stare
That reeks of death
The posture
Makes you tremble
Here comes the messenger
Found bringer of dark days
Here comes the messenger
Black crow on a tombstone
(She'll) seek
And find you
Make you remember
Here comes the messenger
Found bringer of dark days
Here comes the messenger
Black crow on a tombstone
Hidden under its wings
The darkness you wish to hide
Bearer of ugly truths
On a grey
Somber morning
Through blurry glass
The black crow
Here comes the messenger
Found bringer of dark days
Here comes the messenger
Black crow on a tombstone

I hate Mastodon
and evidently, I'm not alone... here's a few gems from around the 'net:
"...My roomate swears by this band. I find it boring as hell and overated."
"People like to make it like they're on some shit you just don't get. In actuality they're just a lackluster band with a ton of hype."
"...Mastodon are shit because they are actually shit. They play a tiresome blend of groove rock, and have spawned many crappy imitators such as Kylesa, Minsk and Baroness. Granted, it may be different to what we like, but the reason we say Mastodon ... is mediocre isn't because of some Neanderthal attitude towards music outside our own, it's because Mastodon are just plain rubbish. And we are able to pass that judgement because we listened to them with an open mind."
"I'm going to kick the next person I see wearing a Mastodon shirt in the balls so hard their feet are going to leave the ground."
"... I just don't get why this band is so liked, it baffles me to the point of losing sleep."
*******************************************
I tried to like em... I really did. I listened with an open mind and it felt boring and unoriginal - not like they're copying anybody specific, but trying too hard to be "innovative" and "prog", when it's just plain mediocre. People who KNOW music and have my respect dig em, so I gave em a shot... multiple shots, in fact. But all I got was *yawn*
