Ron's best work now that Blotted is out?

[crimson sacrifice]

So now that pre-orders of Blotted are starting to trickle into peoples' mailboxes, what's everyone's favorite "ron" cd at this point? I have a REALLY hard time putting anything about Ink Compatible, but I think Blotted might just be my new #1. Unfortunately, since I just got it yesterday, I've only been able to listen to it about 15 times so far so I'll need more listens to decide which I like more.

Its weird. Its easy for me to pick between watchtower / spastic / solo cds but when i add this one i just can't really say. This has a much darker/heavier feel to it and its almost like a completely different person.

it hasn't trickled into my letterbox just yet... I'll let you know once it has...

 

[goncalo cunha]

I don't know...but this Blotted Science masterpiece is number one right now!! I'll let you know in a couple of months if it's still top spot!

It's gonna have to be pretty insane to top Solitarily Speaking Of Theoretical Confinement I reckon, that one is pure genius... I've been listening to it in the build up to Blotted Science, it's definately my favourite atm...

My fav is Solitarily Speaking Of Theoretical Confinement, but im only on track 4 right now of Blotted Science, so well see.

I gotta say Blotted; it's just more in my vein. I like death metal and I've been a Webster fan a long time and like his style, so the collaboration is just awesome for me.

I'm hearing a friend's copy and I'm only on track 3. So far, I'm completely amazed by just these tracks alone. Needless to say, I just threw down $15 to Ron for my own copy. I can't wait to get this in my hands. I've been waiting for the last 3 years for the release day to come!

Kudos, Ron! Do me a favor and sign that sucker, will ya?!??

Ink Complete for me, still. Hard to overcome the nostalgia for an album I've listened to at least 100 times.

Although Blotted Science is probably #2 now, after 6 listens This thing is a monster.

But, seriously, is anything Ron's played on not fantastic? I guess I haven't heard his Slayer SA stuff, or was he in Juggernaut? I can't remember which brother was in which band... I guess I could go look it up, but I'm lazy.

Ron was definitely in SA Slayer - for some reason I'm under the impression that Bobby was, too, at some point, but I'm not sure about that.

In any case, and Ron is going to want to kill me again for saying it no doubt, to me the best thing Ron has been involved in (to my knowledge, after half a dozen spins of BS) is still far and away Control and Resistance. If Doug and Ron's writing together clicks, it's like a freak wave of composing and arranging quality, surpassing by far anything they've done apart, however painful the writing process may sometimes be. Yes, I'm still hoping Mathematics will prove my point within the foreseeable future...

Ron was in SA Slayer, Bobby was in Juggernaut I believe, and also in Riot with Pete.

While this is awesome, I reckon Solitarily Speaking Of Theoretical Confinement is still my favourite, its just so ingenius the way all the songs are put together... This Blotted Science is amazing though...
