Is it closer to Meliora (the good album) or the older ones (The less good albums)?

Weird take considering the debut is their only good one.

I'm pretty sure Prequelle is the Last Jedi of Ghost albums. Personally I really dig it but I totally expect that some will be put off by it. It's very GnR, Megadeth, Dream Theater. It's interesting and a super fun record, but it doesn't have the lo-fi spooky doom vibe it used to. Now it's... covered in glitter and wearing tight pants? Something like that.

They’re loving great because they literally write new old Death songs. It’s amazing how well they pull it off. Looking forward to listening to this!

Yeah, could agree with that. I was expecting amazing based off posts but it was just a big shoulder shrug.

It’s subtle and complex in a fun way. It’s very much a progressive death metal album mixed with old Rush/Yes prog. Instead of doing the usual 500 ideas per second with a million different sounds they’re mixing a handful of ideas in cool ways. I like how it builds on and references itself. It’s very cohesive. Very listenable and well paced. Nothing wrong with not finding it amazing though. It took me a few listens to “get” the sound they were going for but it won’t be for everyone.

It actually reminds me of recent Gojira albums in a certain way. That’s sure to rub some people badly itt but I love what these bands are doing on different levels of heaviness.

UADA now have a full album out that sounds like UADA so it's really good.

Lots of people outside of this forum are making GBS threads on the UADA album pretty hard. I don’t get it. I haven’t listened to the whole thing yet but it sounds great :shrug:

On the surface it's very good and every aspect sounds good, I can't deny it, but it's very in one ear out the other. Absolutely nothing about it sticks, much like their previous one. It does remind me of the superior Let the Devil In by Sargeist though, so that's good.

I repped Devoid of Light pretty drat hard, but the new Uada is a disappointment to me. It was worth listening to and wasn't terrible but seemed to be a huge step down from their debut.

I sort of enjoy that Alkaloid album but after a couple of songs I feel like putting on some real excellent poo poo like Tool

I'm still in love with the new UADA and think it's better than their first album (which was excellent, so that shows how much I like the new one).

Yeah, it's almost as if Chuck is still with us - almost.

The new Ghost is fun. Loosen up your bullet belts and live a little bit.

I like my metal chilean with a heavy dose of Somewhere In Time Maiden worship too.

I hate coming in here and making GBS threads on things, but yeah. I was expecting some cool riffs but there were basically none I can remember. I caught myself headbanging once I think. I spent more time snickering at the guy singing.
