[goatschool]

i'd also cite carcass "symphonies of sickness" but grindcrusher takes a little bit of seniority on that.

 

[avi]

I *almost* listed that record, but went with Godflesh - Streetcleaner instead. I had the CD longbox on my wall for a long, long time.

abbey road
all things must pass
ænima
heartwork
angel dust

i mean, that's what i would add anyhow.

nicely done with wolverine blues, seems like everyone i talk to shits on that album but i always loved it.

 

[ChromeLife]

Hell yeah Chemlab is on there! That made me really excited for some reason...

 

[deadair]

[deadair]

[Josh Seipp]

camoflageblood is on the case as well, he's an awesome dude. check out his band double dagger if you haven't already!

 

[Josh Seipp]

ALSO part 2 rules. I don't like everything on it, clearly, but this is a really well done project.

 

[avi]

wow. there's some seriously antagonistic retards out there.

 

[minxnim]

part 2 is cool, i'm having a bad day so it was cute to see the part about my dad teaching me to dance to the rolling stones. rad.

 

[deadair]

minx, that is totally the cutest one ever.

 

[minxnim]

i have like, some really old pictures of me when i was really little dancing with my dad i need to find that shit

 

[Josh Seipp]

Husker Du - New Day Rising

It's a great album, but I have to slide with the majority and go for Zen Arcade. The songs are not as strong one by one as in NDR but Zen Arcade is a holistic effort. It really really resonates in me, at least, some concepts that I cannot examine critically. I have to surrender to it, every time.

Metal Circus is also very strong. I guess you're right, any Husker Du record could be it. But New Day Rising was the 'record after the record' and it could be taken into any direction and it still wouldn't be enough in my head.

 

[FalseTodd]

most of this is quite agreeable

i would've replaced "in on the kill taker" with "repeater", but that's purely personal

i like melt banana as much as the next nerd, but not life changing

rodan would be printed in 46 pt font bold and italicized <3

 

[NAD]

swans and sepultura, excellent.
