    70's rock/Proto Metal

    Maybe I'm ignorant but I haven't found a thread for 70's hard rock and proto metal. I've found myself listening to a lot of this stuff lately and I hope that there are others here who are interested. There were so many good bands back then and now very few of them are known to the world. So...

    Songs currently kicking your ass.

    I'm endlessly obsessed with this song and this band. Sleazy blackened street punk from the gutters of NYC: http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLhFZ7Xaoz0

    Controversial opinions on metal

    Sunn O)))) is boring as fuck. Maybe seeing them live really really stoned would change my mind but come on I don't have the time for this shit.

    Greatest album of 2013

    I've never heard of Terra Tenebrosa. If they sound anything like Bolzer I'll have to check 'em out!

    Greatest album of 2013

    Fuck yeah! I figured people here would probably know about 'em but they're a band worth spreading around because they're still new. But seriously, major labels are gonna be knockin' on Bolzer's door real soon. I saw it described somewhere as black/death meets Neurosis which isn't too far off but...

    Greatest album of 2013

    This is an EP not an album but Bolzer's Aura EP blew me away when it came out. That riff melts my brain. PS can someone show me how to correctly embed videos? I cant seem to figure it out.

    So what does everyone think of the rise in audio cassettes?

    So I would like to take a minute to thank everybody for responding. I didn't expect so many people to be so interested or so vocal on this subject. My takeaways from this conversation are myriad. Firstly, the production of tapes is cost-effective for small bands. It may not be as cost-effective...

    So what does everyone think of the rise in audio cassettes?

    Wish I could remember the band name. It was at Hospital Productions (now closed) in NYC. They were selling some tape in a bag with the blood, hair, and feces of the band members. Blew my mind.

    So what does everyone think of the rise in audio cassettes?

    Krow makes some good points here. I also believe that it was the lo-fi black metal enthusiasts who liked having their hand-numbered, only 25 ever made, packaged with the feces of the lead singer (I actually saw this one time) cassette tapes that made this popular again. That being said, I think...

    So what does everyone think of the rise in audio cassettes?

    I have to agree with Balls here. But at the same time labels and bands are really jumping on this these days and I know a number of people who are really into collecting tapes. Seems to me that this came out of the underground punk and black metal scenes of recent years where limited runs of...
