The Metal Thread [ARCHIVED} Genre • Page 211

Oh you have to check out Underworlds, it’s certainly more of that Entombed kind of style since I think Ulsh is on guitar rather than bass. Great record. It’s so hard keeping up but at least driving for work gives me a chance to stay updated

 

Yeah I was reading a review today noting how he moved to bass from guitar which made me want to go back and check out the stuff he played guitar on

 

you don’t have cancer is incredible

 

Really cool article about the history of Southern Lord Records.

 

I'm a simple man. I see southern lord, I click

 

diving into the discography of long established metal bands has been one of my favorite things to do the past few years

Also HELL YEAH at Zao getting on that map!

 

I'm still trying to get through all of Amon Amarths discog but I'm getting close I think I've got one or two more to go through

 

you're going through the alphabet of metal bands and you're in the Am's, right?

 

I wish I was doing something organized I've been all over the fucking place for two weeks now hahaha

 

Go. Because it's a distinct possibility that either of those bands will not be around in 5 years. I'm missing the Chicago area show on that run because it's the same night as Protest the Hero, but I'd be there in a heartbeat otherwise.

So many good picks. So many bad picks. Stoked for Scorched and Woman Is The Earth tho.

Today Is the Day - Wikipedia

Not a bad pick considering their longevity and how influential they are. Temple of the Morning Star is a classic.

I almost did my master's thesis on something similar. Neat stuff.

 

Hell yeah. Both bands rule.

I've been jamming Alpha and Omega recently and even though it's not the most highly regarded cro mags album I think it still jams. Apocalypse Now is a tune. Good riffs.

 

I'm already seeing Architects/Stick To Your Guns/Counterparts on Tuesday and Royal Thunder on Thursday, but I'll still try to make it out to Eyehategod/Cro-Mags on Friday.

 

Go talk to John about vegan food

 

You've probably already seen this, but for the rest of the thread...

 

Architects were on unreal form when I saw them recently, hope you have a great time Tuesday.

 

I'm going mainly for STYG, but I'm excited for the whole bill. I've never seen Counterparts and I've only seen Architects at Warped a few years back, but they were one of the best bands I saw that day.

 

Counterparts puts on a sick show

 

As someone who is so in love with the type of bands that draw inspiration from the style of death metal championed by Incantation and Immolation, there's a lot of their material that I still need to explore. I'll be deep diving into their discography this week. Or you can call it....spelunking.

Get it?

 

I'd rather be seeing The 1975.

 

I don't get it

 

Stupid reference to play off of a thread derailment in the 1975 thread where someone mentioned Counterparts out of the blue and idiotic discussions were had:

Album - The 1975 - Music For Cars/What A Shame EP (2018)

You aren't missing anything, and I'd avoid reading it if you want to retain all your IQ points. but it made for great fodder when I was stuck at the laundromat.

 

ATREYU Working On New Record

Cool.

 

I'm not sure of the origin exactly, but I'm sure the references were made because Brendan Murphy of Counterparts is a big The 1975 fan.

Ctrl+F The 1975 - There are quite a few mentions...
My name is Brendan Murphy and I play in Counterparts. Ask me anything. • r/melodichardcore
