Last time I saw em they had a couple guys fighting on stage in full Viking armor - so its a good show. The oldies rip and the new stuff is great live.

Despite the new Amon Amarth two part music video, I've never seen anyone in the pit turn into literal demons only to be quickly vanquished by a conjured viking. This indeed sets a new bar for ALL metal shows.

That's backwards though, Black Future is their best album. I mean, come on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjHiE3WX8YU

Black Future is good, or great even, and I was disappointed that Outer Isolation wasn't as good. Haven't listened to their latest enough to have an opinion(it's not terrible though).

My favorite part of the last Vektor album was thinking "that was a pretty alright album" and then realizng there was still 45 minutes left before turning it off.

So Neckbeard Deathcamp announced a new album for May. I'm mainly posting this here, aside for some of those song titles, is because Karl Willets will be on the record at some point. https://neckbearddeathcamp.bandcamp.com/album/so-much-for-the-tolerant-left

Haven't listened to their latest enough to have an opinion(it's not terrible though). /agree on black future being totally great and outer isolation being not as great But dude. To me Terminal Redux is arguably the greatest thrash metal release of all time. You need to listen to the whole thing, the songs compliment each other perfectly as it's composed cohesively as a narrative from start to finish. Lyrics are also very cool and good sci-fi storytelling

Mr. Pickles posted:/agree on black future being totally great and outer isolation being not as great Also, it's more or less also a concept album about the tensions within the band and how the eventual breakup was inevitable. There's a hell of a lot emotion poured into that album.

terminal redux is really good all the way through but if i just want to slam through one banger on there that isnt like 9 minutes long i just pop on this one and sometimes let it segue in to the really good mellow clean vocals song right after if im in the mood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vEWDRs9ZJ8 edit: this is one of those songs imo that you can play for someone who has never heard the band and it tells them everything they need to know for the most part. like it hits all of the vektor checkboxes without overstaying its welcome - kind of like suffer no fool by power trip, which is their entire sound crammed in to like 2.5 minutes

This is painful to argue against but... Mr. Pickles posted:/agree on black future being totally great and outer isolation being not as great ...gently caress it. I’m really close to agreeing. Terminal Redux is a masterpiece on every level. If it didn’t have the Vektor weirdness to it I would still think it was amazing but it’s all those little idiosyncrasies of the band that make it what it is. In the riffs, in the vocals, lyrics, songwriting. All of it. And it still sounds human like the 80s poo poo unlike the trend of the overly produced and tight thrash that we’ve been bombarded with for the last 15+ years. It still sounds modern, because it is, but not to the point of carefully produced sterility.

Terminal Redux is a masterpiece but a big knock against it in the all-time thrash rankings is that it’s not Demolition Hammer’s Epidemic of Violence.

IF your thrash album is 70 minutes long than something has gone horribly wrong somewhere.
