Why is Judas Priest the only still-running legacy Metal act that understands nobody wants repetitive 8 minute songs from them?

I could use edited down versions of most albums. Remove a lot of repeated parts and most solos and chances are it’ll be a better record. Reader’s Digest remixes

100%. The older I get, the more I appreciate 3 & 4 minute rippers. Way, way too many hour+ albums out there, and too many of those are like, 5 or 6 tracks.

While we're passing judgment on metal cliches, can we get a ban on all classical sections and fingerpicking intros? Any slow intro can piss off too.

It's always fun trying to figure out what movies or shows the samples come from. I have the new Torsofuck samples almost all identified. Beginning sample from The Pig has me stumped though.

new lamp of murmuur is good. it's a stylistic turn away from their lo-fi material into more straightforward immortal-esque bm but they're very good at that. https://lampofmurmuur.bandcamp.com/album/saturnian-bloodstorm

I don't mind a slow intro unless it's like one of those ones that's just 3 straight minutes of Nature Sounds. We're past that, I think

The Kins posted:Yeah, my gut reaction to 72 Seasons is that it's not bad, but not great either. It's just alright. Metallica in cruise control. Not exactly writing any new chapters for their formidable legacy, but not the kind of embarrassment they'd trod the floorboards of in the past. I dunno... It feels like "If an AI wrote a Metallica song..." Pretty much this whole new Metallica album and...marketing feels very modern and very Not-Metallica. Like, for better or worse, one of the cool things about Metallica is that they kinda were always doing whatever the gently caress they wanted to do. Hence Load, Reload, St. Anger, Lulu etc. I mean you may have hated those albums (PS: gently caress you Load is awesome) but there was some level of honesty in what they were doing. I mean there's the classic "Metallica sold out" argument but I always felt that Metallica were still steering the ship and the marketers worked around whatever they were doing. There's just something about the new songs and the new marketing that feels as though the band isn't steering the ship anymore. The songs are generic, the guitar tone is lacking in gain and a bit "friendlier" and the interviews and stuff have been what you see from pop bands. Yeah yeah yeah, Metallica is Pop blahblahblah pre-emptive shut the gently caress up. A million of you are gonna claim that they sold out with The Black Album (hell some of you to be smartasses will say it was with Ride The Lightning when they had a ballad) others will say it was with Load or whatever. I'll acknowledge that there are reasonable arguments to be made for all those points in time, but the recent stuff really gives me a "sellout" vibe

I've never really been a fan of bands rolling out albums one song at a time over the weeks ahead of release. Kind of ruins the fun of release day and takes the songs out of the context of the album. It feels especially weird when it's Metallica doing it. Especially when it seems like they're having a lot of fun and doing what they feel like doing, music wise (to the detriment of the music a lot of the time. They could really use someone to whip their arrangements into shape), and then the end product is being presented with this mega-polished marketing campaign.

All this new stuff sounds exactly like the band that made Death Magnetic and Hardwired... to Self-Destruct to me. you could have told me 72 seasons was a deep cut off of either of those albums and i'd have believed you the only song off the new metallica album i like is the non-existent version of lux aeterna they plays at 1.25x speed - that song has good riffs, it's just too slow. the rest have been that sort of milquetoast mix of hard rock and thrash with the edges sanded off that's indicative of the last 15 years of metallica and i find 95% of it to be uninspired.

To me, Death Magnetic is a "return to form' (even though it was meh) and Hardwired was the better version of that. This feels like a meh version of Hardwired.

I have come into possession of a certain ancient book, a collection of arcane scrawlings reputed to have been derived from an even earlier transcription, allegedly lost during the great fire of 1666. The Chthonic Chronicles! Glyphs, sigils, occult pictograms. Six score and ten oblations to some malign entity of COLLOSAL EVIL.

It's always funny when Archspire complain about how it takes them 4 years to write 30 minutes of music Those 30 minutes are really really good tho

glad im not the only one who thinks the new metallica album sounds like some AI-assisted poo poo Metallica writes music in a different, as yet unilluminated bad way. St. Anger/Frantic, or like Cyanide, that's what we should be hearing. That kind of bad. This is a different, way less authentic kind of bad.
