Bigfooty General Metal Thread Mk.VII

[Paul Kersey]

Just bought the following from HH - new Denial of God mcd, new Riot City, new Twisted Tower Dire, new Funeral Storm and a compilation of the German Pest. Onto NWN and 20 BS for more purchasing....

 

[Paul Kersey]

I've stopped buying unless it's stuff I really like or just I can't stream. I've got CDs every where and one day decided enough was enough, I can't keep buying storage to put them on when so many I only listen to a few times. Spotify serves me mostly now as almost everyone is on it, and anything else I just import.

Wish I had that self control.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Hey I’m glad you like it. I’m with you, not a bad song to be found. Riff city.

Ordered it from Wowhd. $14. Added new Krypts and the recent Vanum albums.

Impetuous Ritual - BUMS (haha)

New Riot City, Funeral Storm & TTD = winning.

Need to check out DoG.

 

[dwwaino]

He makes up for it in guitars, though.

I figured if I want to keep buying gear and PC upgrades then something had to give!

Get their full length. Think you'd like them.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Autopsy - AOTU.

I’ve actually never heard of them.

King Diamond - HOG.

People either like them or not.

Queensrÿche - The Verdict.

Down to 2 original members they’ve somehow conjured up an energetic album that blends reminders of past glories with a robust, modern sound. This is probably the ‘best’ we could realistically expect given the available (missing) personnel, and despite not screaming ‘classic’ in the context of their amazing past glories, I’d be surprised if this doesn’t receive really strong reviews. Their best post-Tate release by a mile.

Might need to change my avatar..

After a couple of months of listening Verdict is now placed second behind Mindcrime for my favourite QR releases that I own (everything up to and including Empire + American Soldier thus far).

Really over being in an office at the moment. Politics, brown nosing, passive aggression, metrosexuals, ulterior motives, fat campaigners etc etc.

I'm in heavy industry where it's dog eat dog a lot of the time. Good to hear the grass isn't greener..
Happiest I've ever been was when I ran my own business for a couple of years

Wow that’s very high. Placing it above The Warning, Rage for Order or even the EP is a massive call. The dreaded American Soldier *shudders*

Apart from walk in the shadows, rage never really grew on me (and it contains gonna get close to you lol). Warning is close, and the tracks I like most off that album (title track and take hold) I like more than any song on the Verdict. EP suffers from being EP length. American soldier started ok with sliver, and I liked what they did with unafraid but if falls off a cliff after that. Normally if I listen to early era QR I’ll chuck on that Tokyo set from ’84.
I’m also one of those people whose taste is such that a half dozen people could recommend the same band to me based off what I already listen to and I’m genuinely as likely to hate it as I am to enjoy it haha.

Oh yeah, how good is that ‘84 Tokyo concert? Pristine. Astonishing live performance - especially Tate. Prophecy live was and is great to have also. One of my fave QR songs that was impossible to find.

Departure Chandelier before bed.

 

[SydneyBomber]

Pretty girls in corpsepaint...
Because abbath haha!

 

[Magus]

Wet!

 

[Paul Kersey]

Recent Obliteration album.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Didn't really enjoy the new Abbath album...

I didn't know it was released. Will check JB. Assuming it is polished straight ahead metal with some "black metal" touches for the NB/non BM crowd.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Necrophobic - MOTN.

 

[Dee Snider]

Marduk - Serpent Sermon. Quality.
