Have Dark Heart of the Wood out, it will be the only non-land permanent you will need.
With 4 mana in play and either a Tranquil Thicket in hand or graveyard and Life from the Loam in hand or graveyard this combo can still get off. for easy of explaining life of the loam and tranquil thicket in is hand. This combo is very easy to get off despite the amount of cards. The dredge mechanic often allows me to do this 4th or 5th turn on adverage exiling about 22 - 28 cards

in play: Dark Heart of the Wood (now once you get 4 mana you start the combo).
Tap for 4 mana (3 green, 1 black)
(1) Play fastbond, Songs of the damned

(2)
sac 3 forest gain 9 life - Gravestorm is now +3
Play Life from the Loam to grab all 3 forests and play them again tapping them for mana
Cycle Tranquil Thicket to dredge Life from the Loam back to your hand

after the first 2 cycles of the combo you have to grab 2 forests and Tranquil Thicket causing you to use 1 black mana to repeat. You gain 6 life and put 2 counts into the gravestorm for 1 mana.

(3)
sac 2 forest gain 6 life - Gravestorm is now +2
Play Life
from the Loam to grab all 3 forests and play them again tapping them for
mana
Cycle Tranquil Thicket to dredge Life from the Loam back to
your hand

Repeat (3) for 1 black mana

Yeah but i don't really like playing creatures for damage and this is actually in a mill deck. After i exile 20ish cards i mill for another 36+ same turn. This is a definate end game in my deck since i can exile all deck recycling cards them mill the rest same turn. I play this with altar of dementia and golgari grave trolls. At the last activation i return three forests, play another songs/Crypt of agadeem play the trolls and mill for exactly 15 then 14 then 13 (36 cards). With nether shadows and dredge i normally always get 2 - 4 free creatures out at the beginning of my turns to mill for more cards and make you sac 2 - 4 creatures. How do i play so much in one turn you may ask. Nostalgic

Me and the poeple i play with do NOT use infinite combos. Just too many of them now and we like longer games.

Trust me i know it. used to use it but slightly different. I was using infinite combos then everyone had to start and games were over in no longer than 10 mion even with six people playing... Thats not how magic is played especially playing for fun.

meh I play with people who break fragile little infinite combos so I still feel as though the game can be fair and infinite but I see what you are saying
