  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

Kreator are touring in September, the week before is Cannibal Corpse, which sucks cos I'd like to see them but will not be able to afford both so Kreator win!

Slayer and Megadeth are touring together in October, which while it would be good I'm sure it would cost a fortune!

To quote Cannonball Adderley - "Hipness isn't a state of mind, it's a fact of life"!

How about Miles, Ornette Coleman, Albert Ayler, Art Ensemble of Chicago and all the other music groups formed from within the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians.

(if you're not hip enough to know 'em - look 'em up and learn something) :lol:

So yr a free-jazz hound huh?

I tried listening to John Coltrane's 'Ascension' a while ago but it gave me a migrane... :wacko:

I like Ornette Coleman's 'Shape of Jazz to Come', and Charles Tyler Ensemble's 'Eastern Man Alone', some Sun Ra, but really, i just don't get it...

Captain Beefheart's about as far as I wanna get into free-jazz. I guess i'm just not that hip :P

Dead Kennedy's were a early 80's punk band from USA. Not every ones cup of tea but a good band.

Great Band. I love their 1st 2 albums. Biafra's intelligent & hilarious...

He would be just 'slightly' out of place in the 'alternative rock scene' of today, where people don't really seem to give a damn about how they earn their greenback, or who's interests they are really serving. He's much too savage for that scene, but the music certainly is more dynamic than a lot of hardcore punk imo. They shoulda been bigger than those Green Day [censored] though.... :lol:

Does anyonelse like Sophie Tucker btw??? :unsure:

hahaha I was waiting to see how long it took before I got a response from the AFI named poster. Kudos.

Yea I prefer the side shows to the festivals. I'd rather see bands I want to see than a bunch I don't to sift through the 3 or 4 I've come to see. They mentioned they will be doing a side show so keen for that.

Speaking of Soundwave.... not much to get excited about from the few bands named so far... Paramore the latest.. sigh.

It's not official at the moment, but I got a text from my manager on Friday night. He got a call from a friend of his at a record label with some BIG news about three Soundwave bands.

Meshugga

Machine Head

Faith No More

I read the text during my shift.. and.. well.. couldn't get any work done that night. It's be epic! :P

The full lineup should be out on Friday morning.

I'm off to see Kreator in September, should be awesome!

Cannibal Corpse play the week before but I can't afford to go to both :(

Spermbirds are here in october which is going to be uber awesome!

Scully DK would never get popular out side the old school punk/skater scene really, like the exploited, they are possible two of the biggest punk bands within the scene, especially when people first get into punk.

I’ve been given the most amazing opportunities over the past few weeks.. all culminating in interviews with The Used’s guitarist Quinn Allman, and my ALL TIME IDOL, Davey Havok of AFI fame tomorrow night. Hopefully this opens a few doors for me.

Thanks.. That was the most exciting phone call of my entire life. He has to be the most genuine person in the music industry... The interview will be up on bombshell next week hopefully. I kept my cool for most of the interview.. but gushed a little bit towards the end. Ha. Ah well.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
