The Thread Where You Talk About Music You Like

I just got Celtic Frost - "Into the Pandemonium". Some really good stuff and some really weird stuff.:zombie:
 
The first two songs they released were pretty enjoyable, but the album as a whole I found to be pretty weak and didn't hold up well. It's better than the new Blind Guardian, but I don't have plans to be buying either.

It's all really good stuff besides One In Their Pride.

Yeah, I lolled at that one.

Listening to Destruction - "Cracked Brain" right now. The first album without Schmier. I can still say this is some very enjoyable thrash and the vocals are not bad at all.

Indeed. Blind Guardian's new direction is a little iffy. It's good, no doubt about that, but it's not the Blind Guardian I know and love. I'll still buy it, though, since I'm going to a gig in November and I want to get up to date on the new songs.
 
I relistened to Ulver's Nattens Madrigal again last night, and album that I've owned for a about half a decade and an album I've never really liked. I could never get past the production, and I've never found it musically particularly interesting. I haven't listened to it in years until last night, when I was playing it to decide whether or not I was going to but it in my tradelist, and I was fairly struck by just how good this is. The production doesn't bother me much either, which is usually the main complaint.

Does this even have one original member or is it some decent musician that joined the land late milking the name because it would be easier to stay sinister than start from the beginning. I remember the first two albums being solid oldschool death metal. Once Sinister lost the original guitarists the band went downhill really fast. I think bands continueing without atleast one original guitar player is lame.

An interesting point actually, the rehabillitation of albums previously thought to be shit. I have found this to be the case with a great number of albums recently...

Mind you, High on Fire - Surrounded by Thieves - still stubbornly refuses to be anything other than pretty rubbish...
 
Good point; I was taken in by a combination of the Terrorizer hype machine (which has happened on infuriatingly frequent occasions; Mithras stand up), and by a great many net correspondants of the time, who otherwise seemed to have great taste.

It's just so....so...."Meh". Maybe the living embodiment of "meh", actually...

I have a sneaking suspicion that the album in question sucks a good deal of asshole.

What? Why?! Just because Nuclear Blast put it out means absolutely nothing in this case. This is a fucking slab.

Listen.
