What’s the band name here? Never seen this before.

 

[CiG]

Palmistry.

[Master_Yoda77]

Not too huge on this band or the style, but I think this album is just wonderful.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Heavy. Is it just me, or do some of these riffs sound like punk/dbeat stuff? Really digging the style. Plus, those fucking breakdowns.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

Not metal but

This is amazing. "...and all I can play is durnnn durnnnnn durnnnnn"

After previously hating this and not listening to it for over a decade, I have to admit that there is a fair bit more going on than I appreciated at the time. If I discover that I now enjoy Agent Orange as well I may have to commit seppuku.

You should've gutted yourself when you first found out you didn't enjoy Agent Orange

 

[HamburgerBoy]

I'm gutted every time you're mean to me.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

This is criminally underrated. Yeah, Death Penalty is supreme and among the best the genre has to offer, but man does this have just as many rippers.

Also, blah blah blah, doom metal sucks, I'm Fatman, etc.

 

[CiG]

I prefer it to Death Penalty, pretty much since day one.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Nah. I really dig the Salem witch trial theme of the first one more. This one is more introspective and stuff, which is cool, but Death Penalty just meshes so fucking well. Both have that stupid/cheesy DIY charm that I adore as well. Have you heard Resurrected? I need to check it out even though I've heard it's not good.

 

[CiG]

Resurrected definitely isn't anywhere near as bad as people make out, I think. But it is a bit o a mess.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Yeah, I think I heard that their live performances were way fucking worse than the actual album. Which is odd, as it's usually the other way around.

 

[Phylactery]

I sometimes think Doom could be my favourite genre, as the stuff I love, I really fucking love. But then for every great doom album I hear, I hear a lot more that fail to move me. I don’t get it honestly. Note that I generally prefer ‘epic’ doom to the more Vitus-y strain of doom.

I’d never consider Death Penalty to be one of the best of the genre either. And it’s hardly even straight up Doom anyway.

I also don’t rave to Reverend Bizarre anywhere near as much as most doomsters either. Although I do like them.

 

[CiG]

Same for me with black metal. I hear one album that blows my mind, but usually it's a sea of shit.

Yeah well fuck you. Death Penalty is brilliant and "Into the Rectory" is a fucking masterpiece.

Probably my favorite release from 2015.
