Thanks, Headstock! A heads up, 6 & HMSBTP are the same disc. 6 was the European version & HMSBTP was the US version. They differ by a couple of songs and mastering. The latest one (Face The Day) will be available as a download in about a month. For anyone who would like to know some Spyz history, go and enjoy at:
24-7 Spyz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I look forward to your thoughts about the discs! We'll get into my likes:D & dislikes:mad: !

King - I just purchased Can You Hear the Sound - Live from I-Tunes and will be listening on the commute tomorrow - Figure I should officially listen when actually in the Bronx (on Metro North)

BTW - any profits and or royalties received from this or any future purchase of 24-7 Spyz by the CIC or any other member of the ALOC must be used solely for the purchase of an AL.:D

:D :D


Wow, I did a search for "green babes" and this thread came up! What CAN'T be provided on the ball forums? Nothing, I say!

Anyway, you could probably count me in for a trans ash BFR. :) Give me a couple of months to hoard some loot away. It's hard to tell from the picture, but is the Knot Rocker finished or bare wood? I'd prefer bare wood feeling. Either way it looks great!

BTW, I took a trip to Guitar Center today and a trip to Manny's and Sam Ash on 48th yesterday, hoping to see a Silo to try out. Zilch. I'd be pretty hesitant to order one without getting a feel for the neck and hearing the single coils on it. Man, I want to try one out. :(

Thanks, Lock! Pretty young looking for some "worldly cats".... Let 'em know what time it really is when it comes to what the Silo is capable of! I've been tripping people out for a long time playing Silos and playing the music we play! I tell cats all the time you can keep your s_ _ tty E_P's & Ibenhads, the Silos are the real deal for any style of music! I can truly say after being a player and endorser of "other" guitars during the early years with Spyz, nothing compares to my Silos! And the beautiful thing is that I copped my first one in 1990 by trading in "something else" cause it was love at first sight! Organic & pure is the way great relationships should happen and I'm still in love with my Silos! Spread the good word!:) HMS4L!

Thanks, MBG! I hope CYHTS makes the commute a rocking one! Let me know what you think! And give the thumbs up as you pass thru the Bronx;) ! I'm working on adding the BTW from your post to my signature! And YES, I'll put all proceeds garnered via the CIC or the ALOC towards the purchase of my first AL! And make sure ya'll cop the DVD from the Spyz site cause I'll add that to the AL pot, too:D :D :D !

Hey Radrock! That's not the BPKHKR. That's my 1990 trans ash silo, aka the O.G. Knot Rocker! BP will determine when the"official BPKHKR" appears and he'll decide what it'll be, a LE or a BFR. Either way, it's gonna be a beautiful thing when it happens so start stashing that loot! Plant corn early, I always say:D !

Hey Jimi,

"6", "Temporarily Disconnected" & "This is..." about to arrive 2day !

Saw that SiloBass of yours which instantly reminded me there was someone in my area having one in stock, too. Gotta try this out - this really thrills me.

PLEASE please please do everybody a favour and create a special threat immediately when there is anything new about the BPKHKR !!!

EYE DOO WANT 1 !!! :cool:

"Prost" from Oktoberfest country

Right On! Play 'em loudly:D ! Do go check out the Silo Baritone, I really dig it! BP said he'll post a thread titled "BPKHKR" and that'll be when it's ready:) :D :) :D !! My German friends would raise their glasses and shout "Prosterli Frau Stirnime, Diddle Dee-Diddle Dee-Dee Dee Dee!" Something good & dirty, if I remember correctly;) ! Prost backatcha;) !

Great song... I wish he would have recorded the arpeggio stuff first, and then played the melody for the video. Would have been much cleaner

No falling asleep on that train ride

You sir, in a word, Rock. :cool:

After the first listen, favorite tracks were Love & Peace and the guitar work on the last two - Room # 9 and Stuntman. I will listen again, and again.....

So just add one more middle class suburbanite into your core demographic fanbase ;)

Thanks, MBG! Good to know the ride rocked! I'm glad you dug it and it's an honor to add another middle class suburbanite to the HMS4L! family:D! There's legions of them worldwide! We've stayed true since 1989 and so have they! I hope to see you when we play a NYC date since you're semi local.....:cool:

^ I think your stuff is pretty sweet too, it's so hard these days to find good metal without the puking lead singers.......

Is the BFR silo gonna be a real deal?

I think what that freak was thinking when it was arranged is that it's cool that both parts can be played at once.
I think it's cool too.

Thanks Sub! I'm one of those cats that think heavy grooves deserve melodic vocals over them! I've been calling our music HeavyMetalSoul since releasing our first disc in 1989. A critic once said only Spyz could make records that sounds like Black Sabbath meets Donny Hathaway and make it all work out:p ! As far as the BPKHKR goes, we'll see what BP decides to do. In the meantime, I'm gonna put some EMGs in my trans ash Silo and slightly put her back in action! The O.G. Knot Rocker will rock again until she's cloned like Dolly the Sheep:D :D :D
