Albums currently kicking your ass

I can't believe it took me this long to get into Anthrax. I used to think of them as inferior to the rest of the big 4, but their catchiness has won me over.

 

[VenomPuppy]

I saw these guys live at the beginning of their tour for this album. It was pretty fun show, and I hope to see more stuff from them. There's a decent Power Metal scene in Salt Lake City, but concert venues like to screw them over for Rap Metal bands.

I especially love the vocalist. His voice is perfect.

Nokturnal Mortum - Goat Horns

 

[Vilden]

Goat Horns was for along time my favorite album ever. It has dropped in my rankings since then but still an awsome album!

 

[Phylactery]

Is it still your favourite Nokturnal Mortum?

 

[Vilden]

Not really sure, it is between it and Weltanchauung, Weltanchauung is probably an ounce better but Goat Horns wins on nostalgia.

 

[no country for old wainds]

agree on all counts, except i recall THE VOICE OF STEEL being really good too and i keep meaning to spend more time with it.

Yeah, The Voice of Steel is pretty great. I've also always really enjoyed Lunar Poetry. Great band on the whole.

Throne of Ahaz - Nifelheim

 

[Funerary_Doom]

^Havent listened to them in awhile. I need to revisit them.

I agree everything they've done rules. It is kind of funny how Goat Horns often gets away with all the synths when albums like Moon in the Scorpio and The Nightspectral Voyage according to quite alot of people don't.

Oh well, currently kicking my ass:

 

[Phylactery]

I've owned Moon in the Scorpio for years and it never really clicked with me. I remember it being long and drawn out and never really going anywhere. I should revisit it sometime.

Never heard The Nightspectral Voyage.

 

[EspaDa]

Moon in the Scorpio has really interesting parts. Darkzone Martyrium is hell of a song. Typical 8 or 7.5/10 album. I haven't listened to the entire sophomore album though, I heard it's worth giving a shot.

 

[Phylactery]

Still one of the best ever imo. Morbid, twisted and violent. The ending to "Within" is pure emotion. Is there anything else that really sounds like this?

I didn't even begin to understand or truly appreciate this record until 10+ listens back in the day and that has made me start to wonder if there are other albums I've written off after 1-3 listens and not given the proper chance to resonate with me.
