hm... tough one, perhaps vintersorg's first "hednisknjärtad"? it's not horribly similar but it conveys the same feelings for me

 

[Krilons Resa]

That album is indeed awe-inspiring...many people find the album cold because of its instrumentation, but I think it's a rare case where the technicality of the music adds immensely to the album's feel, and it matches the album's themes perfectly...it manages to sound mechanical and highly emotional at the same time.

I agree.

New Zero Hour early next year (finally...)

That is AWESOME news.

Nevermore - Dreaming Neon Black
Opeth - Still Life
Symphony X - V: The New Mythology Suite

That's a pretty good list... though admittedly, I recently jettisoned my Dio collection.

I don't think "cold" is necessarily a bad thing. I love the fact that "Towers of Avarice" is so cold. It's a cold, mechanical, brutal, stark album.

Yeah, I go on their forum every so often to bust their balls about how long it's taking. Definitely my most anticipated CD of '05.

Well that could be debated all day, every day, but yeah, it's great.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I debate YOUR facts all the time.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

that may be

 

[JayKeeley]

i'm going to be perfectly fucking frank here

IF YOU'RE NOT INTO CHEMICAL WEDDING
THEN YOU ARE NOT MY FRIEND

Conversely, if I agree with you wholeheartedly, does that make us best friends? Further still, how much loving of CW will it take to get you in the sack?

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Powerslave
Operation: Mindcrime

Both still better than CW.

THE single BEST heavy metal* album EVER RECORDED FULL STOP





* as in "non-extreme metal"

Agreed. I bought this shit in '99 and it is STILL fuckin magical (alchemical?).

 

[Crimson Velvet]

I put off listening to that album for sooo long, because of Bruce's earlier, more atrocious, albums... Glad I got around to it, though! F'in brilliant!

 

[Ellestin]

This Erik/MadeInNewJersey conversation was predictable as fuck!

Never heard this "Chemical Wedding" album, should I? I'm not too much into Maiden or heavy metal for that matter but a couple songs now and then are ok.

 

[cthulufhtagn]

If we're doing non-metal, then this opens it up a bit...everyone HAS to own:

Radiohead - OK Computer

That album makes 90% of all other musicians sound like retarded gimps.

dude, at least 90% of all musicians ARE retarded gimps :Smug:

[MadeInNewJersey]

oh yeah, and fuck Radiohead
