I haven't liked anything of theirs since Days of Grays (I was in high school ok), but I saw Sonata Arctica live for the first time a few nights ago and had a drat blast. They played mostly new poo poo but everyone either had bad taste or left their pride at the coat check because the crowd all sang along anyway. Mostly I was just there for Full Moon and they delivered so all was good in the end. Basically it made the socially isolated 16 year old in me happy and I recommend indulging that kid once in a while, it's great. Less great was the idiot trying to start Nazi chants between songs during one of the openers. What the hell dude

New Trollfest coming!!   quote:Look at our splendid cover people! We have once again allied ourselves with the ever brilliant master pen Jonas Darnell. As you can see the cover has a picture of Professor Otto, Camouflage Clair and Steel Sarah while they are running from something deep in the caves of the earth where they are looking for the mother troll H*lluva.

Cardiac posted:A lot of people are wrong. Ya I totally agree with those three albums sounding very samey. They were a lot heavier but pretty much followed the same pattern except a few songs. Also I don't own any of the earlier albums and the versions I've heard online sound badly produced. Maybe those songs were uploaded with low bitrate or maybe not official versions I don't know the cause. Varg posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObTDvMUMgr4 this song was being used in a bunch of computer game player edits back in the day and got me into In Flames, when they were good enough to make an instrumental track Decent listen, never heard this one on the original album.

Ok just got to listen to Harwired... and yeah, it's not terrible. Most of the first disc was in car so I'd probably need to do a more critical take later, but Spit out the Bone was definitely the highlight. On the other hand this is what I thought of DM and I haven't listened to it since the month of its release so we'll see.

Van Dis posted:This is a couple weeks ago but I'm digging that Nevesis album a lot, reminds me of early 90s Kyuss without falling into the nostalgia trap like a lot of bands. The first half of the Churchhouse Creepers album is great but I lost interest halfway through, probably owing to the repetitiveness. Thanks for posting these.  I like them both a lot, but Churchhouse Creepers just about manages to inch into the #1 spot for me. I see what you mean about the repetitiveness, I just don't mind because it's hella good repetition. Also the last song is a helluva good album closer.This is another definite standout from the stuff I've discovered there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-cem1jwmLA

Took me a while but I finally listened to the new Mithras and it's a drat fine death metal record. The production is so much better than anything in their past and the textures! The loving textures man! They weave together riffs and spacey melodies in a beautiful way. It's a wall of sound but not in the typical compressed everything at 11 stuffed into your ears way. I love these dudes. I remember having Worlds Beyond the Veil in my car for the longest time when I was younger and finally getting into weirder more dense metal. There's some kind of nostalgia there that feels great.

Forever Advancing Legions was pretty awesome and this one is pretty solid as well. Also Full Length Bolzer album is mediocre at best.

I liked all of Okoi's clean vocals. There's different approaches he takes and it hits me the same way that Akercocke uses them, although maybe in a more experimental tone. Either way, the record crushes, particularly the title track.

They're still all playing with the tightness and energy they used to have (also James is still running on multiple bottles of whisky per night) and it makes for an amazing show. Also watching it, no wonder Jason's neck became permanently hosed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F156LyxoLUU

I was loving around on youtube earlier and I saw a video for "Don't Need You" by Bullet for my Valentine. Full disclosure, I had heard of this band but never listened to them and watched the video on a lark. Based solely on that song, they sound like like a lovely stepchild of a hatefuck between Linkin Park and Hoobastank.
