My Latest Purchases Thread

[Erik]

I bought a bunch of camping gear last night while reading Kerouac, so now I'm trying to make it my goal to not buy any CDs until my birthday (about 3 months away). Wish me luck!!!

So you're going to buy albums on vinyl the next 3 months then?

 

[Shakermaker]

Helheim - Jormundgand

This order will probably take a while to arrive

[Ayeka]

That CD rules, Nightsblood is one of the best songs ever.

It is indeed most triumphant, as is the title track. S'got my seal of approval, though it does sound rather generic in places...

 

[J.]

generic compared to what? Keep in mind that album was released in 1995.

 

[NAD]

Eh, I'll agree there's a few weak moments on the album, but I think they are only weak in comparison to the 90% majestic moments.

 

[SonOfNun]

Vital Remains-Dechristianize
Incantation-Infernal Storm
Pestilence-Consuming Impulse/Testimony of the Ancients
Suffocation-Effigy of the Forgotten/Pierced from Within
Obituary-Slowly We Rot/Cause of Death
Vader-Black to the Blind/The Darkest Age
Deicide-Serpents of the Light
Deicide-Amon:Feasting the Beast
Bloodbath-Breeding Death EP
Nightfall-I am Jesus
Type O Negative-Bloody Kisses

 

[NAD]

Wow, all that and you're listening to the greatest death metal song of all time, good for you.

 

[jimbobhickville]

Picked up Primus "Antipop" and King Crimson "Thrak" while I was away for X-mas. Probably will do a haul sometime soon as there are several I've been meaning to get for a while.

 

[NAD]

Damn, everyone is buying stuff I know about lately!

Although Thrak isn't nearly my favorite Crimso, the material is extremely strong in their live show. Dinosaur always cracks me up.

Antipop has always been hit or miss for me. Eclectic Electric and Liquid Sky are both really cool, but the album plays a bit uneven and has too many guests, preventing it from being a solid Primus album. Still good though.

 

[JayKeeley]

OK Jay, I/we want to know your thoughts on Arcane Sun.

Will do, although I hope someone in RC will do a proper review too.

generic compared to what? Keep in mind that album was released in 1995.

Heh, I've made that same comment to you before at times, except switch '95' to '85'.

The circle of life just keeps turning...
