You and whose knees?

I went into my local video game shoppe today and dude was listening to Metallica. I asked if it was the new one and he said "yeah, it's great, I can play every track in here because there's no swearing" lmao

Most people I’ve known haven’t liked Bolt Thrower as much as I have. Especially earlier on most of my friends thought they were a little goofy, but I blame that on the Warhammer artwork more than the music. It’s nice to be among fellow aficionados here.

I discovered them because of this thread I'm pretty sure. The Warhammer art didn't hurt in making me give Realms of Chaos a spin because cmon, a death metal band writing songs about 40K?! What could be more appropriate?

I love Bolt Thrower although I can understand why for a long time they were a bit forgotten about. I discovered them going through that whole Earache records 90s DM period - which is absolutely unparalleled in quality, and full of bands that released loads of albums, toured loads and put out loads of merch.
Bolt Thrower barely toured in the UK despite being from Coventry and official merch has only ever been available at shows. Wish I had gone to the show in Leeds in 2014

Mainly Bolt Thrower does extremely good riffs and are a legitimately good metal band, setting aside the thread joke and whatever one thinks about 40K (they are the best 40K band by a mile, too).

I'm never sure how to feel when I realize a band name or song title is a subtle nerd reference. Is it embarrassment that I got the reference, cringe for the band picking that, or some other kind of loathing?

If you feel self loathing over nerdy references in metal you are just practicing self harm

In spite of the name Bolt Thrower really only has the one 40k album so it's kind of odd to me that they're thought of primarily as a Warhammer band.

Realm of Chaos is the most overtly about 40k, but War Master has a couple songs that to me explicitly are talking about the Horus Heresy and Great Crusade. Other than that Mercenary and HVP's art are reminiscent of Imperial Guard/Traitor Guard depictions and they have songs as late as Those Once Loyal like A Symbol of Eight about the 8 pointed star of Chaos.

Eyehategod was my favorite of the weekend, Take as Needed for Pain all the way through was so fuckin good. First day Frozen Soul, Undeath, Worm and Gorguts all killed it. My buddy and I left after a few songs into TBDM because neither of us were fans and we were honestly bored.. they just do nothing for me :shrug: Second day I thought All Out War was very impressive, Incantation Diabolical Conquest set was amazing, and it was my first time seeing Suicidal Tendencies so that was a lot of fun and my body is still very sore now.
