Rolling Metal 2017

Do you get bread or crackers with it?

I'd be pretty ticked off if my gazpacho got chunky, heavy, and hot on me.

Good couple of days in Philly... Monday was Deafheaven, This Will Destroy You and Emma Ruth Rundle and I just came home from Oathbreaker with King Woman and Jaye Jayle.

I wish I caught more of Emma Ruth Rundle's set since I like her albums but she went on so early... I like This Will Destroy you more as background music playing on my CD player than in concert, frankly... Deafheaven was probably the best I have seen them of the three times.

I really enjoyed Jaye Jayle's set, reminded me of Helios Creed if he used different drugs or was an earthling... Picked up the split they did with Emma Ruth Rundle, ironically enough! King Woman was fantastic, the singer jumping i the crowd at one point, really love the new album which I picked up at the show. Oathbreaker was a cathartic, thrilling, over the top force to be reckoned with. The amazing thing was after the show ended there was Caro at the merch booth without even a moment to rest, from screaming onstage to asking what size shirt you wanted in about as much time as it took to get from the stage to the merch table. It was funny to me how she spent the whole show shrouded in black fabric and with her long hair covering her face and suddenly people are taking pictures with her.

I could really complete the week if I caught SunnO))) on Saturday but I am old, tired and broke. Also, seeing Fishbone on Friday. :)

"such a pleasant dish in a genre full of bland appetizers" a pretty un-metal description of metal, but I'm still looking forward to hearing this album tomorrow.

This Anomalie album is great.

Yay! Glad someone else likes it!

But what kind of soup would you say it is?

goddamn the new Havok album is fun (even if the opening track makes me cringe a bit)

loving the new Obituary. I didn't care much for the last one - wasn't terrible, just didn't have many songs I was that into. My only disappointment is that it is largely bereft of some of the extended Celtic Frost-y groovy parts of their past, but then again I can listen to Slowly We Rot or "Redneck Stomp" if I want that.

I do like some of the forays into outside territory, like the heavy metal-ish moments during the first few tracks. the simplicity of the songwriting works too. I can see these songs going over well live (which I'll know for sure on Sunday)

I'm not particularly well-versed on soup analogies.

You need to start listening to more soup.

Broth in the Throne Room

De Mynistroniis Dom Sathanas

but spelled better

Wolf Layers a Bisque

Bak kut teh Attack

Bouillabaisse in the Northern Sky

Enjoying that Fen album

Great Old... Won Ton

Don't Bake the Okra

It's wayyyyy better fried

That's a fact, btw, not parody

lol I think fried is the only way I've ever had it

new venenum is out:
https://venenum.bandcamp.com/album/trance-of-death

haven't listened to it yet but I love the old record, so I am psyched to hear this when I get a minute

venenum album is excellent

This is the cover art to the next Danzig album, out in May. I don't think I need to know anything more about it, frankly.

yup. nope.

hahaha

when your neck is thicker than your waist

Will NAILS finally impress me enough that I finally understand all the critical love their album got last year?
Will TOXIC HOLOCAUST kick my ass yet again despite having no new music in nearly three and a half years?
Will FULL OF HELL be able to deliver on a stage much bigger than I have ever seen them on before?
Will GATECREEPER be as great as their last album?

All will be revealed tonight...

Toxic was great the other night. I left during Nails...like em ok but it was so overdriven it sounded like nothing but a cacophony of noise.

damn, Negru, drummer and co-founder of Negura Bunget, dead at 42

can't say I've heard any of their stuff since the 2010 album but they've definitely had some tremendous works

I reviewed their most recent album, Zi, for The Wire. It's great. It was supposed to be the second album in a trilogy; I'm assuming that's over. I doubt they had the final volume recorded already.

Oh my god, I love that fucking band! Only 42... Fuck!

Aww man RIP.

Just announced a date for Taake in Philly in June!

Everyone's up in arms over the name of the forthcoming North American Shining and Revenge tour...

http://www.invisibleoranges.com/files/2017/03/no-safe-spaces2.jpg

this is the suicidal black metal shining right

anyway what a profoundly stupid yet unsurprising name for a tour by swedish suicidal black metal band shining, hope no one sees them

Are people "up in arms" or "laughing at jackasses who think they're being provocative"? 'Cause in my case it's mostly the latter.

Those two bands are the worst. That Shining SWE guy especially, what a clown. Give me Norwegian Shining any day.

the only thing that really bugs me about the tour name is "more". no safe space would be alright.

Maybe they meant it like "no safer space".

Can't wait for a tour called Triggered, Snowflakes? with a kvlt pepe logo

Maybe they meant it like "no safer space".

i read it as "no more [oppression, this is a] safe space"

Give me Norwegian Shining any day.

Yeah, it sucks for them that they share a name.

Crazy talk, Swedish Shining is so much better than the Norwegian one, despite the stupid PR shtick.

Nah, even if you discard the moronic schtick, Swedish Shining is crap. Norwegian Shining is great.
