I don't Spotify but my local media player tells me my top artists were First Fragment, Allegaeon, Nuclear Power Trio, Steely Dan, Stortregn, Avishai Cohen, and some goofy power metal poo poo that I only listen to when I shower or cook.

Also Horrendous is coming to town in like six weeks and I'm gonna miss it because I'll be out of the country.

Wrapped is dumb for me because I’m always doing some sort of listening project or using shuffle rather than putting stuff on because I feel like it. My top artist was Rush because there was a week where I listened to five of their mediocre later career albums. My top song was played four times.

yeah, rush really had some stinkers on their way out (huge rush fan).

Clockwork Angels is great in spite of production but I was listening to like, Presto and Roll the Bones that week to finish what I hadn't heard from them.

As a Prog/ Powermetal fan, I have no shame.
Rest of my top 5 were Avatar (Awesome live band), The Gathering (the new album slaps) and Angus McSix (cheese with extra cheese)

Angus mcSix makes a whole lot more sense if you consider the guy is from Switzerland

I love how he just took all the swag Gloryhammer had and made another band and now Gloryhammer has nothing going for them

They don't even have the main storyline antagonist playing guitar AND bass for the band, poor Gloryhammer.

I mean, the new singer is... okay, but he's no Angus.

This is my issue - I listened to a bunch of artists and poo poo but my top is something when a band comes to town I put their poo poo on non-stop.

They released a version without the lady like 3 months ago and I've been listening to it since and now this new one sounds wrong to me

I saw them a few weeks ago and songs surprisingly fun live. And honestly their show was just all around a blast. I knew they improved live since they sobered up and kicked out ZP but I was still tempering my expectations and I didn't need to

I saw them in the early 2000's at a festival and they were so drunk and sloppy it was embarrassing. They're not really my jam regardless, but I'm happy to hear that they got their poo poo together because what I saw was legit horrifying.

Thomas Winkler is a giant shitlord and a creep and the sooner his mangled horse carcass of a "band" fizzles out, the better. "Angus McSix" would've been funny as a one-line throwaway joke somewhere, spinning it into a whole (lovely) project is just loving sad. Dude just has to be the protagonist in something but has zero creative ability himself.

And no, I don't have a lot of love left for Gloryhammer, either.

I mean Chris Bowes is a weirdo and has said some lovely racist and misogynistic poo poo, but I've also seen some accounts that he's shown some willingness to be better. I don't really know about that one way or the other.

I was specifically talking about Thomas Winkler independently of the whole Gloryhammer group chat debacle. Like he's not only a sex creep, but also just a complete egotistical jackass, according to people whose assessment I have no reason to doubt.

Full of Hell the best goddamn band on the planet I love them so much thank you for the reminder

Not many albums I can safely say changed my entire taste but hearing Trumpeting Ecstasy is on that list alongside poo poo like Loveless, Since I Left You, Madvillainy, Scum, Pet Sounds, etc. etc.

i mean given his plan was to gently caress a groupie of every race and called them all by the worst slurs possible im confused how your ire is aimed at winkler who was not in those group chats and bowes who was the worst offender

edit: sorry i misread the independant of the group chat part

I heard from a pretty good source that Winkler got kicked from Gloryhammer for creeping on underage girls, so that absolutely tracks.
