Albums currently kicking your ass

[no country for old wainds]

i think it was just one person shitting on 'steamrock fever', krow maybe? most scorps songs from that period were great methinks and that is no exception.

 

[EspaDa]

Taken by Force is a perfect album from start to finish. I only have objection in He's a Woman - She's a Man.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Why? That's one of the best songs on the album.

 

[EspaDa]

No way. We'll Burn the Sky, The Riot of Your Time, Sails of Charon and Steamrock Fever are. He's a Woman - She's a Man sounds more like a filler to me.

"He's A Woman, She's A Man" >>> "The Riot Of Your Time"

The Riot of Your Time is my all time fav Scorpions song along with In Search of the Peace of Mind.

[Elric of Melniboné]

Is this actually out now?

 

[The Ozzman]

Nah, Yoda's just the ultimate cocktease. Yeah, it is. Balls to the wall power/trad badassery. More than met my hopes.

Amazon says 10/14..

Unleashed

 

[Krow]

That's Amazon. It's already been leaked elsewhere and the official release is September 27th.

Yeah Amazon is always behind on releases that aren't big label.

 

[CiG]

It's available to buy on their bandcamp page.

I ain't dissin disco, I'm not saying punk is bunk
I can't settle for heavy metal, cuz I got to have that funk

I can't say I've thoroughly explored a lot of classic funk bands' 90s output, but so far Tower of Power is the only one that actually still managed good faithful albums in their early style. Like, what Cameo and War were doing around the same time is some of the most abominable music imaginable. This is still cheesy and slick as fuck, but great nonetheless.

Vale of Pnath - II

This is pretty damn good on first listen.
