The Purchases Thread

I got Gold Gen Admin for Melbourne, and section 3 Row KK Seat 50 for Syd. I'm assuming that's pretty good. Not right in front, but the first section after the gold finishes.
 
This album is better than I was expecting after The Glorious Burden (which I like) and the re-recording of the original Something Wicked songs (which I am not so keen on). I have only had two listens so far, but it seems like the most original thing the band has done in a long time, not all by numbers stuff like a lot of their material. I can't help but wonder how it would have sounded with Matt, as I am a much bigger fan of his vocals than Rippers, but Ripper does do a good job. For anyone with some interest left in the band, check it out.

I give it a solid meh. I think I'm just not that big of a fan of Ripper. I can't wait to see what Matt does with Pyramaze, although there's a chance he won't really fit their sound either.

Meh to Framing Armageddon? I can understand not digging Ripper compared to Matt, and I am very keen on checking him out with Pyramaze as well, but I think Framing Armageddon is a big step forward from what Jon did with The Glorious Burden. More mature sounding.
 
I can't understand not digging it, dig it damn you!
