I'm glad you'll sleep better, I wont because I'll spend the night worried that I gave you the wrong impression about Death N Roll.
TBH I like the later career of Entombed more than the early stuff. Like I said the other day Left Hand Path was a killer record when it arrived and there is reasons why people think it's one of the most important death metal albums. But to me the later years stuff is easier to listen to while not loosing the balls and power.
I'm in this for the long haul

Lol. No your explanation did make sense. I think I get it. Is Left Hand Path the first one?
Neptune is like a ninja. You never know when he's going to strike.

Yeah Left Hand Path is full on death metal which came out about 92 so around the time bands like Morbid Angel were breaking but still a few years after Death and even Morbid Angel were formed.
I'll be a boy scout and be prepared!

New Enforced album is not bad. It's fast, heavy, thrashy and sounds good loud. The only downer of the album is some shitty industrial type guitar sound in the middle of the album which is only short but is still way tooooo long.

Yeah like NIN, thankfully it's only one part and it doesn't go long but to me it's not needed.
It's kind of like the last Havok album that had that one song in the middle that didn't really seem to fit but they put it there anyway. The rest of the Enforced album is powerful and thrashy but this weird shit in the middle makes little to no sense.

It makes it even weirder when it's just one part in one song doesn't it? It just comes out of nowhere to ruin the song and then it's gone. It's like, why did you do that?! I hate that.

Yeah it always makes me wonder what the band were trying to do. In the 60's and 70's it was just blamed on drugs but despite drugs having wider effects these days I just can't see it as a viable excuse.

So kid 1 comes home from her first High school camp yesterday and says she had a good time doing camp stuff but the best bit was that she met a new friend and they sat up all night talking about metal. I'm weary about the metal kids listen to because I remember when my nieces told me they listened to metal and quoted bands like Asking Alexandria and Black Veil Brides. Anyway I listen with interest like a good Daddy does and she tells me how they started off singing Bohemian Rhapsody complete with Wayne's World headbanging. I thought okay that's not bad given how old that movie is. Then she tells me how the conversation moved on to bands like Metallica and Slayer. My interest was a little more tweaked. Metallica gets mentioned a lot with kids but less so Slayer. Then she moves on to tell me her new friend is into a band call Cannibal Corpse, even wears the t-shirt.
"Have you heard of them Dad?"
"Yeah, of course. Long standing death metal band with gruesome lyrics, and a lead singer named Corpsegrinder who loves having his photo taken with cuddly teddy bears."
Next thing I know my wife's computer is making a noise and she's walking out the room. She's got the film clip for Inhumane Harvest playing on YT. I didn't think much more about it, just sat back and enjoyed the music. Then Kid 1 looks over at the screen and comments about the 'interesting' film clip. That of course reminds me that the song is about the illegal trade of human organs and the clip had warnings on just about every site that linked to it.
So much for parental control. My wife refused to play Metallica for the child last week, then last night she just puts on a band named Cannibal Corpse and walks out of the room without even thinking how appropriate it might be. Lucky the kid is amused by gross shit!

There's so much greatness in this story I don't even know how to comment!So kid 1 comes home from her first High school camp yesterday and says she had a good time doing camp stuff but the best bit was that she met a new friend and they sat up all night talking about metal.

Yeah thankfully our kids aren't into that shitty stuff like my nieces and that probably has a lot to do with us not liking it but I do live in fear that one day one of the kids will come home and say they want the new Parkway Drive album. What the hell can I say to that? If they do their research as they are inclined to do, they'll be able to say to me, Parkway Drive headlined over Anthrax at Bloodstock '19 and you listen to Anthrax!

Even before it was fashionable to be a computer nerd in a dark room I wanted a black bedroom, but apparently my parents were able to look into the future and see what I'd become if they allowed me to have a black bedroom as a kid.

Fuck you Chucklefuck! Sure you need to make money during the pandemic and this is an easy way to do it, if the album actually sells. But you're actually in a band and that band should have released new music before the pandemic hit. Now it's another two years on and there is still fuck all from the band. Talk about fading into oblivion.

Okay so as I mentioned a few times because of Chucklefuck not releasing a new album I was forced to look into the past to get something new. (Alright it's not all his fault but fuck him and his band who wont do anything new I'm blaming them for everything now!)
Anyway I started by opening YT and looking for obscure 80's thrash. Typical of YT and the way some people categorise things not everything I got was thrash, but I got a huge list. I've since looked into that list and short listed a bunch of bands worth listening to again. Obviously a lot is dependant on what I could find on YT or band camp etc but I'll throw some of the second listen worthy stuff here.
The first one for the list is Think Of Misery a 4 piece thrash band from Germany who only had one album in 1989. The album had typically bad artwork, it was fast, which some decent solos thrown in the mix. The drumming was speedy and relentless although occasionally got lost in the mix. The lyrics are kind of typical of the day, the spoken English is good but the grasp of the language is not entirely there, It's a bit like early Sodom and Destruction but with vocal sound closer to something between Sodom and Kreator. it's and impressive debut album.

It's truly amazing what is out there that did not make the mainstream. Of course some of it's shit, some of it's not to my taste and some of it I had heard of but I loved listening to it all. From bands that Slayer stole riffs from to bands that only had one good song to bands that had multiple albums, it was a cool journey that wouldn't have been possible without YT.
