This thread got me listening to them last night. Vol. 3 was my shit back in high school, but I’ve never listened to Iowa. The Herectic Anthem is a jam. I’ve had it on repeat this morning.
Banging through the albums for the first time in a long time and I think this my ranking: Iowa s/t All Hope Is Gone Vol 3 Chapter 5
Yea Iowa will probably always be my favorite but I haven't disliked an album from them yet and this one is shaping up to be great
I'll be that guy. I prefer s/t to Iowa. And I'm not the biggest fan of Solway Firth but it has grown on me. But I fucking love Unsainted. Still extremely hyped for this album.
Just started a discography listen in prep for this. On Iowa (my fav). But man, Eeyore is WILD. I remember hearing that for the first time and the double bass blew me away
Iowa Volume 3 S/T Chapter 5 All Hope Is Gone This band is consistent and I expect great things from WANYK.
Iowa S/T Vol 3 Chapter 5 AHIG If I had the option, I would have the Disasterpiece live album be my number three.
Embargo is lifted and I can finally talk about this - a fucking monster of an album and the band’s masterpiece
I want to hear more Drew! Fast songs vs slower? Jay Weinberg has sounded more “comfortable” on the singles so far, how’s he compare to the last one? Joey Jordison was a beast and that’s always what drew me to Slipknot
Weinberg rules on this and really all the songs save for maybe “Pain” and the interludes are fast and intense - I posted some thoughts in my supporter forum thread
