that jesus piece one is a good gym album too, but whats the deal with those 2 ambient-ish tracks tacked on to the end back-to-back? i guess the engineer forgot to throw them in the middle of the album somewhere

The thing I always hate about "of the year" things is that it too often skews towards whatever is released in the last month or two. I still can't stop spinning the new PD personally.

I started keeping a running list of "in consideration" in my phone notes app after I recognized this a few years ago. This year, there was a release back in March that is definitely finding a spot on my top ten that I probably would've forgotten about without my list. It was "Catharsis" by Eternal Void. Go back and replay it now, and I bet you go, "oh poo poo, right, that one!"

In the Silence is the longest "song" at 4:15 but it's mostly just droney bullshit noise and a song you know they would neverrr play live. 8:40 (plus the 4:15) out of a 29 minute album means you have almost 13 minutes of unlistenable poo poo. shoulda just released a loving banger EP and called it a day i really like Jesus Piece but this album is my hands-down biggest disappointment of the year also idk if you guys give a poo poo about slam/whatever-metal but Abominable Putridity just dropped some new new: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XN-ZWGF2IIY

It's not only bad, it's boring. Some of my fav metal covers are Arsis - Sunglasses at Night, and Ed Gein's Nirvana covers. I felt Arsis went a good ways to make the song their own, but the Ed Gein covers are pretty much straight forward, but still enjoyable. And of course this classic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N97G_7alzvQ In other news, NPR did a top 50 of 2018, not even one metal album.

I Declare War have dropped off so bad as to become unrecognizable, kind of like how Suicide Silence became a nu-metal band recently And All that Remains becoming Five Finger MAGA Punch Parkway Drive becoming dad rock Oh well at least we can still listen to good records we like and ignore the new ones Still disappointed with the Jesus Piece LP :-/ Strongest agreement with Shoog in years on that one

I visited my parents the other weekend and while driving somewhere an All That Remains song came on whatever XM station I was playing and finally I can partake in laughing at them with the rest of you.

The funniest thing about All That Remains, is that they pretty clearly tried to make a "heavy" album again with the one that just came out a month ago or whatever, and it's so loving boring. Like it's abundantly clear that they just can't write fun and catchy songs anymore. All the screaming and double bass in the world can't help you if the actual songs suck, and they do. There's absolutely nothing memorable about them at all, ever. We'll always have Fall of Ideals.

Whatever song they were playing on the local college station here had about 15 seconds of good, old AAR song in it, before the butt-rock chorus kicked in

My work place was all people posting their Spotify thingy too. Makes me feel like an even older grandpa shaking his fist at the cloud, mostly listening albums I ripped myself and uploaded to Google Play, with the occasional bit of Bandcamp / YouTube (for stuff I haven't bought yet) and Foobar2k (for stuff I haven't fixed album art and tags on and uploaded yet).
