My Latest Purchases Thread

[JayKeeley]

I don't like this thread anymore. Everyone else out buying shit and I'm not.

 

[NAD]

Be proud that you're actually following what several us set out to do...

 

[JayKeeley]

Having said that, I did just buy Battle Royale II and a long sleeved Agalloch shirt.

quitting smoking = nothing
going on a diet = ho hum...
stop buying shit = no fucking way

 

[NAD]

Latest freebie: a one way ticket to the jack shack, just got in a fight with the woman. :Smug:

 

[Lutz]

Unholy - Gracefallen

 

[NAD]

Sacred Reich - Heal
Testament - Demonic
Flotsam & Jetsam - Doomsday for the Deceiver

Not a bad haul for $20.

 

[JayKeeley]

Sweet! From where?! Don't tell me half.com - that's my new playground.

 

[NAD]

On the nose my friend.

Gawd..... I really don't need a new vendor to shop from!

Unholy - Gracefallen

Nice. I should have this in a few days.

Tribalchemy sent out The Second Ring of Power to me just recently as well.

 

[Erik]

Cool. I like how if I mention a band to you you run out and get all their releases immediately. Nah, seriously, "Gracefallen" is their best IMO, you'll probably enjoy it.

 

[J.]

Well, you're usually right about bands that I'll like. I love Esoteric. Fucking great, crushing, weird stuff. Evoken is really good as well. I'm expecting Thergothon any day now.

Based on those three you mentioned, I read reviews and found that if I liked them I'd like Unholy, dISEMBOWELMENT, Winter, and Dusk.

It's nice to hear crushing, cold doom. You hit a home run with these recommendations. I like this stuff infinitely more than stuff like Paradise Lost, MDB, Anathema, and the like.

I also bought a CD from Visceral Evisceration which is supposed to be grind at a snail's pace. Should be interesting.

 

[Erik]

Hm, Dusk. Never heard Dusk, tell me more.

Glad you like all that stuff... I personally think Thergothon is better than both Evoken and Esoteric, so tell me what you think when you get that...

 

[Black Winter Day]

visceral evisceration is good stuff as well

 

[J.]

Dusk is a doom/death band kinda like Evoken but with more death such as double bass, blastbeats, etc. The band only released two MCDs, but 'Mourning...Resurrect' combines both of them into one album.

 

[Erik]

OK, thanks, will check them out eventually.

Latest purchase:
Agalloch Longsleeve -- when the fuck did they reprint/find copies of these and why wasn't I, being one of the biggest Agalloch fanboys in existance, personally informed by The End Records? Better get one quick while they're still there.

 

[J.]

I have an Agalloch shirt. It was part of The Mantle package from The End. It's grey with some design on the right breat I think, and some saying on the back about "heathens" or something.

 

[Erik]

As I'm stalked by the shadow of death's hand,
my heathen pride is scarred across the land!​

 

[J.]

That's the ticket. It's been worn like once. haha

 

[Erik]

Hm, this one I ordered is the same, but black. Anyway, I prefer longsleeves (and I can wear shirts containing the words "my heathen pride" more or less without lying to myself... He he he.)
