The lyrics are about clowns aren’t they? There is nothing creepier than a car full of clown barreling towards you.

 

I'm so bad at keeping up with release dates all of you posting singles of stuff not out yet please repost when the albums drop

 

A Brief, Brief Interview with Speedwolf | Decibel Magazine

I am so, so happy that Speedwolf is back in some capacity. One of the best one-album metal bands ever, IMHO.

For reference, here's that album if you've never listened to it:

 

THRASHGODDAMNMETALTHURSDAY

today's theme is sick album art.

 

Thank you for reminding me about the sadness I had about missing Demolition Hammer when they came through town last year.

 

Got my ticket for my last Slayer show, it’s really happening.

 

Couple full release streams below:

TLA is the god damn spot for metal shows in philly hell ywah

 

I've heard good things. I'm also assuming you don't have to drive an hour out of the city like you do to get to the venue for the Chicago area date (Joliet)? AND y'all get Misery Index over Origin...

...I can't complain too much because I'll be seeing Misery Index in May, but still.

 

Back when I lived in St. Louis I had to drive a bit into the city since I lived outside in the burbs but living in the actual city of philly is so nice everything's like a ten minute subway ride away haha

 

Driving from my place to like Pop’s is a literal journey

 

Yeah it used to suck even from Fenton

 

I honestly hate that the two main venues for heavy acts, The Ready Room and Fubar, has the worst parking situations as well. Like I went to RR a couple weeks ago for an Everything Is Terrible! show and it took me like a half hour to find a parking spot that wouldn’t get my car towed.

 

my life now that i live in a near suburb of chicago. but it cut my commute to work in half so i can't complain too much.

but it makes driving into the city for shows worse since i can't hop on the subway like i used to...especially when i have five shows potentially lined up between the 17th and the 27th.

 

Fubar is so fucking awful holy shit I hope I never have to step foot in that venue again

 

Turnstile and Turnover are playing shows there and I’m not happy about it. Like I really want to go to the Turnstile show, since Touché Amore is opening, but that means going to that shitty part of town and going to that hole in the wall.

 

I’m all about Visigoth.

Also recently listened to the latest Krallice. Band is just on another level

 

What’s a good place to start with High on Fire?

 

blessed black wings imo

 

x 2

 

their entire discography is solid so just start at the beginning. art of self defense and surrounded by thieves have some bangers on them that shouldn't be discounted.

 

Cool thanks for the feedback guys

 

not sure if this was posted back when it dropped but im finally getting around to it, such a ripper
