Excited for this house show tomorrow.

 

Can't say I'm really too into this, it feels like a regression from Gloria, which was an absolute ripper of an album. I know most people preferred the BTTOS sound though, so good for them.

New Opeth is actually surprisingly good. For sure one of their best post-Watershed songs.

 

The new Opeth single isn't bad, but it still makes me miss their pre-Watershed days.

 

Love the new Opeth song, and I've been firmly in the camp of "Opeth hasn't been good since Watershed".

 

Getting some sweet Nails and Dismember vibes from this. Me gusta.

 

Speaking of False metal, this is some good stuff.

 

New Gatecreeper single fucking slaps

 

Yep

 

I don't even have to look this up to know this is a Lewandowski cover

 

what is your take on ALEA from 2016? I think it may be the best thing the band ever did.

This new single I guess I'm luke warm about, but still am looking forward to the record.

thanks for note on Opeth. Watershed is really the last album I enjoyed from them. Without the mix of clean and growls, Opeth just doesn't go as far for me (even with Damnation, although I enjoy that more than any of the post-Watershed albums still).

 

Elder came out with a new Ep today called The Gold and Silver Sessions. It’s pretty good little tease from them. A lot more jazzy and psychedelic than the last release.

 

Wow, this thing rips.

 

I was waiting for someone else to pick up on it. Completely knocked me on my ass out of nowhere.

 

Never heard of them, but this is like my favorite thing all of a sudden haha.

 

Yeah dude. Same here. Just stumbled across it by accident and was hooked immediately.

 

Elder is dope. I’ll check out the new ep

 

Such an angry song

 

That Elder EP is excellent.

 

Unanswered sounds insane live.

 

I guess they're more metal than hardcore, and the hardcore community has zero interest in them, but TGI's comeback show was quite packed and they played like a 20 song setlist complete with flamethrowers and spark waterfalls.

 

Is anyone going to summer slaughter? Lineup looks pretty good.

 

Cattle D was never really my thing, and i've seen the other bands already that i'd be interested in seeing. All except for Nekrogoblikon which I became a fan of after the warped interviews on RIGHT NOW.

 

I think it speaks volumes the band came back. I mean the drummer lost his leg! The set up his dad made for him is awesome.

 

Andrew is the primary reason I ever checked out TGI. Him leaving FTFD to be in TGI was what alerted me of their existence. Returners is the only album I ever really got into from them, but Andrew is a beast of a drummer and the fact that he is still able to play as he does is beyond remarkable. They sound good from the videos.
