Albums currently kicking your ass

Finally hearing this for the first time. It's hands down the best doom I think I've ever heard. Thanks, no_country!

Have you listened to 40 Watt Sun as well?

Is everyone ready for this:

I have never listened to a Manilla Road album. Until recently I've never been big on any trad, power, doom, and the like. Commence shit storm and recommendations
 
Step 1) Get beer
Step 2) Throw on Crystal Logic
Step 3) Drink beer and jam
Step 4) Repeat

If Crystal Logic doesnt make you sing at the top of your lungs and violently air drum/guitar then there is no hope for you. That album is a big fuckin deal.
 
I tried Manilla Road a couple of times. I don't see what the big deal is.

You're a horrible person for not loving metal songs without riffs.

EDIT: And Manilla Road didn't become very air drummable until Open the Gates. Crystal Logic is just a flat, boring album.
 
Being that this album is so consistently and openly fellated, it was one of the albums I tried. Maybe this is why my opinion is low.

fwiw I'm not even remotely a fan of them and have only heard roughly a third of their albums in full, but I'd at least give the next one a shot. It's loaded with filler, but there's some more ambitious/less predictable stuff (The Fires of Mars is incredible). Better drumming and more aggression as well.

Manilla Road have no riffs, arent consider air drummable until OtG, and CL is a flat, boring album...?

Your stupidity never ceases to amaze me. You sir, are fucking retarded.

This. So far, anyway. I've listened to a few songs here and there but wasn't impressed. I figured maybe I'm not hearing the right songs?

And seeing as how I'm one of the members here that plays instruments, riffs are important HB.

The drumming on Crystal Logic is nothing special. Randy Foxe was easily the best thing to happen to them.
