Just picked up Superjoint Ritual's album, use Once And Destroy, and it blew me away! It's amazing. Like really hard Pantera without the solos, just pure, skull-crushing metal. Definitly worth checking out.
I saw Down (Philip Anselmo other side project) not that long ago at the House of Blues and that was a bad ass show and to top it off it was there first Los Angeles show. I think I will check out superjoint ritual.
