Lacuna Coil have some phenomenal songs, they just seem to have ditched those in favor of nu-metal the last few years.

The new L Coil is horrendous. I mean, wasn't Linda Perry around? Or was this her fault?

Holy crap, the Grind Madness at the BBC box set that Earache is putting out is CRAZY. Prime Napalm Death, Carcass, Bolt Thrower... good stuff.

That looks like a really interesting comp. Is it the complete Earache Peel Sessions?
― A. Begrand, Sunday, 30 August 2009 20:07 (fourteen years ago) link
"Earache has obtained the rights from the BBC to release these groundbreaking radio sessions in their entirety for the first time." I would assume that that's a yes?

5 AWESOME minutes.

Just finished the Napalm Death and Extreme Noise Terror disc, and it's pretty cool. I can see how this stuff was totally mind blowing back when it first emerged from the sewers.

Mustis (keyboards; real name: Øyvind Mustaparta) and ICS Vortex (clean vocals, bass; real name: Simen Hestnæs) are no longer members of the Norwegian symphonic black metal band DIMMU BORGIR, according to a posting on Mustis' MySpace page...it should be rather telling that Mustis has set the "mood indicator" on his MySpace page to "betrayed."
Priceless.

Rough mix of the new Ludicra is mind-blowingly awesome. Time to recognize this is the best USBM period.
― Nate Carson, Tuesday, 1 September 2009 01:58 (fourteen years ago) link
So the new Gates of Slumber album is awfully impressive.
― A. Begrand, Tuesday, 1 September 2009 09:49 (fourteen years ago) link
Are the vocals better? I like the music...
― Nate Carson, Tuesday, 1 September 2009 20:53 (fourteen years ago) link
wonder how much extortionate prices above will charge for the vinyl. Probably a diehard version with a shitty patch that's 10 quid more expensive than the standard version (which will prob still be £20 + postage)
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Tuesday, 1 September 2009 20:58 (fourteen years ago) link
I think the vocals are a fair bit stronger than on Conqueror.

The new Megadeth album is really quite shockingly good.
― neither good nor bad, just a kid like you (unperson), Wednesday, 2 September 2009 00:12 (fourteen years ago) link
It leaked last night, too. I really, really like "Headcrusher".
Meanwhile, that Black Anvil album knocks me out. I don't know what it is with all these Hellhammer/early Celtic frost rip-offs these days, but I'm enjoying it while it lasts.

Mastodon are scoring the Jonah Hex film! Sweet.

Got the new Portal today! All writing assignments immediately postponed 40 minutes so I can spin this sucker post-haste.
So far so great, too. Gotta love these furniture-wearing freakazoids.

man guys this isn't a new record but i just put on genghis tron's board up the house for the first time in like a year and its fucking awesome

OK, pfunk, I'll bite: what's that first cover?
I'm listening to the new Orthodox now. I loved Gran Poder but was bored by Amanecer en Puerta Oscura, so I guess my expectations are low. Although it's having some weird Spanish effect on me, because I swear I just looked out my window and for a moment the sight of a construction crane next to the turret of Harvard's Memorial Hall threw me back to looking at the perpetual construction of Sagrada Familia on the skyline of Barcelona.
― glenn mcdonald, Friday, 4 September 2009 17:35 (fourteen years ago) link
It's Orthodox, Baroness and Om.
― pfunkboy (Herman G. Neuname), Friday, 4 September 2009 18:10 (fourteen years ago) link
Listened to the new Orthodox last night. It's amazing. They get better every album; Gran Poder bored the shit out of me, but Amanecer showed big improvement, and the new one isn't even a metal record. The first track sounds like an ultra-creepy alternate soundtrack to Bring Me The Head Of Alfredo Garcia.
The new Om is no more or less dull than their previous records. Flutes are not metal. Handclaps are not metal.
The new Baroness is awesome. I was getting annoyed with the stream, so I'm glad it leaked today; now I can walk around with it.
― neither good nor bad, just a kid like you (unperson), Friday, 4 September 2009 18:23 (fourteen years ago) link
I'm singularly unimpressed with Om but Baroness is a corker. Looking forward to Orthodox.
So, I've finally heard Slayer - Oh yes!
I hope they don't clean it up too much . . .
― Doran, Friday, 4 September 2009 18:41 (fourteen years ago) link
Now playing: Jodis, Secret House. A new group featuring Aaron Turner of Isis on vocals and guitar, with bass and drums from James Plotkin and Tim Wyskida of Khanate. Very spacious, moody, somewhat psychedelic (super-reverbed vocals), not very metal at all. I like it a lot so far. Coming on Hydra Head in October.
― neither good nor bad, just a kid like you (unperson), Friday, 4 September 2009 18:45 (fourteen years ago) link
Greymachine is the first time I've not been annoyed by Turner so I am cautiously hopeful about a Plotkin-project.
― Alex in SF, Friday, 4 September 2009 18:50 (fourteen years ago) link
i wish Plotkin would play more guitar. I like greymachine despite Turner, but this could be interesting.
― Highly trained BBQ chef (rockapads), Friday, 4 September 2009 19:43 (fourteen years ago) link
I'm really digging that Greymachine. Harshest stuff Broadrick's done in ages. I listened to a bit of Jodis, but not all...hasn't grabbed me quite as much yet.
― A. Begrand, Friday, 4 September 2009 19:55 (fourteen years ago) link
!!!! they had a split 7" with Less Than Jake circa '99 I think (lol memory) and their half was CRUSHING, great stuff, and I was bummed that there wasn't any followup on it...wonder if the new one's gonna be at that level of arty prog-thrashy feel

― Angus Young (roxymuzak), Sunday, 6 September 2009 22:57 (fourteen years ago) link
Flutes are not metal. Handclaps are not metal.
come on, this is a pretty boring way to criticize a band for being boring.
― original bgm, Sunday, 6 September 2009 23:04 (fourteen years ago) link
The ones at Invisible Oranges are pretty good.
CBC Radio 3 did an awesome all-Canadian metal podcast last year, which was very cool to see. I keep waiting for them to do another one.

I'm weirdly disappointed by the new Baroness. Its like a heavy Yes record, but not as cool as I thought that would be.
