Albums currently kicking your ass

[Baroque]

Better than Youthanasia, Cryptic Writings, Endgame, and everything Slayer put out in the past 20? Agreed on Metallica though.

 

[EspaDa]

Certainly not better than Youthanasia and Endgame.

 

[romanticism]

Considering the Big 4 haven't released a single relevant thing in over 20 years, why are you people even discussing it?

I believe Megadeth has. Isn't a forum for discussing opinions?

Yup, so has Slayer. I haven't heard Death Magnetic, but a lot of people like that album as well.

Paysage D'hiver - Das Tor

 

[Krow]

Awesome album. Packaged really cool too.

Yes. I never got into any of those Megadeth albums and while I enjoy a few songs off of Divine Intervention, Christ Illusion and God Hates Us All, I still consider Worship Music to be a better overall album.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

It's been a little while since listening to this one. The last great Slough Feg imo.

 

[Nephilim96]

^What do you think of Hardworlder?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Not really a big fan of it, although it has its moments. The spirit is there and all, but the songs are generally light-hearted/unambitious compared to the earlier ones. I never bought The Animal Spirits, but otherwise all of them are at least decent to me.

 

[Krow]

I like the animal spirits a lot, actually. They have a new one coming out next month. Haven't had the chance to check anything out from it yet though.

 

[Der Morgenstern]

Blood Ceremony - The Eldritch Dark

Sort of late to this one. Love it.

I actually have never heard Atavism yet. It's the only Slough Feg I have yet to hear. I'm sort of a fanboy, but I enjoy all Slough Feg releases. Ape Uprising and Animal Spirits aren't the type of album that you immediately fall in love with like Traveller or Down Among the Dead Men, but they are real growers.

God this rules so hard. Can't wait to rock the stage with these fuckers.

 

[paul545]

for one reason or another it took me a little while to get into this album, but turns out its pretty fucking awesome

Tiger! Tiger! is one of their best songs tbh

but yeah mostly Hardworlder doesn't get it right

 

[Kara-Shehr]

Ævangelist - Omen Ex Simulacra

What the fuck am I even listening to right now? Some of the most unique atmospheric trippy blackened death whatever the fuck this shit is metal I've certainly ever heard in my entire life. I've already spent waaay too much money on music this week but I heard this and immediately had to have it. I'm posting this and I'm not even all the way through the entire album yet. The first two songs completely blew me away I don't even care if the rest of the album sucks. The music sounds like the album cover looks basically, imagine whatever the hell that is in musical form.

 

[ProphetofHatred]

That album was kind of hard for me to get into, but I enjoy it a lot now.
