On the Greg Anderson theme, I love Goatsnake so much but they don't seem to have released anything new since Trampled Under Hoof. Any recommendations for a band that sounds like Goatsnake? What's The Obsessed like?

big scary monsters posted:I was listening to Burning Witch today and wondered what had happened to the vocalist, Edgy 59. Did a bit of Googling and found a pretty cool interview with him from a couple of years ago which describes what (in his view) the band was all about, why it broke up and so on: http://www.thesleepingshaman.com/interviews/a-f/edgy-59-interview/. He sounds like a strange guy, but it's an interesting read. You should hear the band Edgy is playing with now. It is sooooooooo completely terrible.

Falls Motel posted:Well, we're playing in March with Batillus (NY) in Madison, WI on the 1st and Minneapolis on the second (with Bellow, also locals). Dunno if you live in the area but if you do, come out! I'd also like to see Batillus, but alas! I live in Finland. If you ever come here, I'll definitely come see you. Maybe my band (Ever Circling Wolves, see my post history in this thread) could open for you.

Didn't see this so... Shroud Eater posted a free download of a track off their upcoming EP 'Tempest' and it rocks. Their guitarist/vocalist is like a lady Matt Pike. So jazzed to play a show with them tonight. http://shroudeater.bandcamp.com/

We could tour with you for a Midwest leg or more. Very heavy poo poo, by the way.

Any recommendations for a band that sounds like Goatsnake? What's The Obsessed like? The Obsessed are generally more up-tempo than Goatsnake, but you should absolutely check them out. Lunar Womb and The Church Within are classic albums, and after Jug Fulla Sun I would call them Wino's best work. You'll probably want to start with Church, since it has Guy Pinhas on bass as well as Greg Rogers on drums. Or, just dig some tunes and decide for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHEaS7i1JKc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNuSTDlk95w

If you can track down the Obsessed's 1982 demo, it's my favorite thing they or Wino ever recorded. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRo-P3FCRLw Uncle Boogeyman fucked around with this message at 18:50 on Mar 2, 2013 |

Got Magic Circle's self-titled album today; feels like solid Black Sabbath/Ozzy worship, so I'd recommend giving it a listen if that sounds good to you. e: Thanks for the recommendation, Oldstench. Darthemed fucked around with this message at 05:15 on Mar 3, 2013 |

This is kind of a strange question - but does anyone have relatively high-res art of the Era Vulgaris promo from Queens of the Stone Age? The "Joshua's Famous Step By Step Party Dance" art?

Three students play Dopesmoker, in its entirety, from sheet music. The guitar parts are played with a cello. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTSsxFMdS30

watt par posted:http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/s/sleep/dopesmoker_intro_guitar_pro.htm If those students were using this transcription as the basis for their performance, it's amazing that they sounded as good as they did, because it's completely wrong. The time signatures are all incorrect, and most of the bass riffs aren't even there. Sleep on cello is still dope as hell though.

If the vocals didn't blow out everything and the cello didn't get drowned out so often, I would totally listen to this all the time.

Earth Rocker leaked today. Myrmidongs posted:This is kind of a strange question - but does anyone have relatively high-res art of the Era Vulgaris promo from Queens of the Stone Age? The "Joshua's Famous Step By Step Party Dance" art? Isn't that a super rare radio promo thing? I think I saw someone on the RekRek forums who had one and said there were only like 20 copies in existence... So good luck. I would say ask on the RekRek forums but they've been down for-loving-ever, so maybe try at /r/qotsa. XYZAB fucked around with this message at 21:16 on Mar 10, 2013 |

It's pretty easy to get ahold of the song - their website has it, and certain pressings of the actual Era Vulgaris album got it as a bonus track. I just was hoping to get the cool art, because the best one I can find is 244x350. I'll try that reddit.

Clutch hasn't made a good album in a while (Robot Hive), but they're cool dudes and the good parts are really good. There I said it e: I'm 1/2 thru and pretty pleased, though I dislike the production. Too clean nuncle jimbo fucked around with this message at 10:34 on Mar 10, 2013 |

Definitely a step up from the last album in that it seemed like they put a little more effort into it, but still plagued by their over reliance on the same stock boogie riff they've been using since Pure Rock Fury.

I agree on both points there. It's not a bad album, really. I think a lot of my impression is partly my fault because I had bought into the hype of this being "way heavy", and a return to older Clutch albums. I went into the album expecting that, and I don't think it delivers if that's what you're after. However, the line "I'm a warmonger, baby, gonna industrialize ya" still has me cracking up.

I've only listened to the singles they've streamed so far, as well as DC Sound Attack because I couldn't resist with how much I loved the sound of the 30 second sample on Amazon, and I dig it all so far. Clutch is one of those bands that just has some power over me. I recognize the complaints and even share some of them, but even in the face of whatever problems exist their music gets under my skin and I can't help but jam to it. My love for the band is so unconditional it borders on motherly. Anyway has anyone heard Stonehenge's album Bunch of Bisons? A friend linked it on Facebook maybe a month or so ago and I've been rocking it almost nonstop since. Really groovy psychedelic stoner stuff, like a harder driving Colour Haze almost. Dripping with lush organ, great riffing and a funky rhythm section. Really, really good. Velocirocktor fucked around with this message at 20:01 on Mar 10, 2013 |

Mr Freedom started playing and my mind filled in the lyrics with Subtle Hustle. That's never a good sign. The same guy who produced Blast Tyrant produced this one, and even he said this album should have been called Blast Tyrant 2. Edit: I should mention that Pure Rock Fury is my last favourite Clutch album. I remember I walked down from my high-school job at KFC to A&B Sound in 2004 to pick up Blast Tyrant on the day it came out. I put it in the CD player, listened to the whole thing once, my reaction was: And I didn't listen to it again for ~5 years until I saw Clutch live in 2009 or 2010 and realized that their setlist is 90% Blast Tyrant material.

The first two tracks on Pure Rock Fury are absolutely unfuckwithable. Right after that is the turning point where they've been stuck ever since.

The new Batillus is up for streaming here: http://www.metalsucks.net/2013/03/08/exclusive-premiere-stream-the-new-batillus-album-concrete-sustain-in-full/ The title track and "Mirrors" are my favorite. It's a great album and I love the industrial elements. I get a strong Godflesh vibe from "Concrete."

Honestly my biggest gripe about Earth Rocker is that they compressed the poo poo out of JP's snare and it sounds pretty bad. Other than that it's a fun album.
