I love u-temo, this and Still Not Normal Today are excellent.

I love the swagger in these guys sound, reminds me favorably, of Jungle Rot.

It gets a vaguely punkish energy, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised lmao.

Preach.

Eh I’ve been known to drop upwards of $300 on a single order, then again it’s meant to last for 4-6 months. (it never lasts).

Man, I am so hyped for this season, I’ve been looking forward to this for months now. Trigun, Frieren, JJK, Oshi no Ko, it’s just STACKED. Non-zero chance I may have to put somethings on the backburner until the season over even.

Don’t misunderstand, I wasn’t replying to OP directly, merely commenting on the same thing as him.

This shit drives me insane. It is completely okay to have preferences, why would you expect anyone to want to date someone they do not find attractive? That’s absurdly unfair.

Wow, that was truly excellent. I have to admit I went in with low expectations. The Chasm is a band I’ve bounced off a few times, so seeing that in FFO had me a little skeptical. But I was wrong, maybe time to go back once again and see if I’ve developed some taste.

Late reply, but anyone else listened to Dreaming Delusion by Gloombound? I’ve given it a few listens as part of my yearly backlog clearing, this is some good stuff!

Love me a little bit of -core in my OSDM, don’t tell the cool death metal guys I said that.

Dang, I really like the little jazz-fusion inclusions, always been a sucker for that. Honestly, I’m most reminded of a thrash equivalent to what Afterbirth brings to Brutal Death, not that I’d take the comparison too far. Love to see polish metal bands, it feels like you never get to hear much from that scene outside of Mgla/Vader.

This album just makes me laugh every time I look at it. What the fuck even is that dudes, it makes a statement I guess. The vocalist is PERFECT though, he really sells that “I’m a disgusting freak” vibe the album is trying to evoke.

This post is a tad unusual from me

Yeah, that’s why I did a double take when I saw this lmao.

Always remember that the things that you liked about Iced Earth, are not the same as what has lead you to not being able to stand them. You did not love his music BECAUSE it had subtle chud adjacent messaging, you were most likely just doing what a lot of us subconsciously do, tune it out.

Ultimately musicians are just people, and sadly even talented people can be just as wretched as the rest of us. I don’t think the metal community is actually essentially any worse in regards to noxious political opinions than any other genre, it’s just the extreme and aggressive nature of the music encourages the artists to be more open about their own opinions.

I’ve noticed the uptick in fem-vocals too. Although I’m not gonna complain, I kinda like it aesthetically for stoner/doom/psych end of the metal spectrum.

I’m guessing this sound just was not moving records in the early 2000s. Combine that with the fact that they weren’t very prolific, and you get a band that flies kinda under the radar. I managed to find a live taping of them, I gotta say, this would’ve been an incredible band to see live.

That is truly excellent, utterly bad ass punk riffage with a heavy, syrupy slather of death/thrash sensibilities and atmosphere. Reminded distinctly of, Sacrilege and Amebix.

Solid, but it really seems to be lacking anything that pulls me in. I think “mid-grade” is basically the perfect description for them.
