Metal Never Dies with Mark Arruda

Metal Never Dies with Mark Arruda

I am the vocalist for the metal band, Aquila from Hamilton Ont Canada.

It's a great hobby that I take pride for over 20 years playing in bands in the Ontario scene. You can check out our stuff at www.aquilametal.bandcamp.com

I am busy man with a family life and work as well. I will be releasing some vocal material, songs from Aquila and other projects.

Also I will review some videos on reviewing metal albums and talking about some albums. It's a challenge for myself to interact more.

This is just for fun. I'm not trying to make money or think I'm the next big thing. I'm hopefully connect with musicians especially other vocalists. Help each other out and send each other tips. That's the goal. If you want to work with me and collaborate on some music please email me at

    One way I've gotten into tricky albums is, start with the very last track, play it a few times then work your way backwards. Seems to help. But if you don't like a band, that's a totally different thing.

    Interesting video idea. I've found myself have this dilemma with bands before, you want to like the band more, but you just can't. Amon Amarth is a band I think certainly has some good songs, but I just couldn't get entire the entire albums, but definitely a talented band. So I have the same feelings you do on Amon Amarth. Maybe switch to decaf hahaa, nice line.

    @@MetalNeverDieswithMarkA I actually prefer chamber music and dark days The first album is cool but I cant stoo playing chamber music. I believe korn got massive influence from it for their album untouchables. Chamber music is more unique though. Dark days is just a masterpiece from starg to finish Both albums hold a special place to me Dez lyrics helped me understand life more and the bass on these records is some of the best I've heard in metal Meegs guitar also sounds incredible very synth like sounds and totally unique. The choruses on dark days are also unreal. I dont believe coal chamber really get the credit they deserve and I hope they produce another album now they're touring and "nu netal" is kingdom of a thing again especially with kittie dropping a record recently
