That new EHG is sooooo good! I have been waiting for a new album from these guys for years and the new one does not disappoint.

On the poppier side of doom/sludge, I went and saw FLOOR this weekend at Tremont Music Hall, and thier new tracks really fit in nicely with thier old tracks. For those unfamiliar with FLOOR, it is Steve Brook's band before he started Torche. So if you like Torche, you will like FLOOR. The new ablum, Oblation, is in definate rotation at the moment. Check them out.

That BOMB string!

I can't get into the vocal styling from most of these newer bands.

Love metal, hate cookie monter/growling/grunting.

I really love new school thrash. Not sure what that style of music is but bands that try and sound like old school 80's thrash, if you know what I mean.

Not the best delivery from Phil IMO, but Pepper always brings the riff

i've been listening to the new EP off and on... and yeah, Phil's vox just aren't what they once were and i rate this one up with the last EP; not very high.

but i'll take what i can get i suppose, certainly not flying south to see them again though......for Baroness though i will..



speaking of them, this whole show gave me wood..



god i want to see them live ugh! biggest problem with Alaska; we get sh!t for live shows.

Great reason to start a band!

I couldn't find the full ep on youtube to post, but all in all I think The Purple EP Part II is right up there with NOLA as far as riffs go, if not better. I was listening last night and it kinda reminded me of Superjoint Ritual.

 

[hatedheretic]

i wouldn't put it up with NOLA...NOLA is untouchable.

but, Conjure is the best track since Invest in Fear; pure Sabbath.. and i find Sufferer's Years to have a lot of COC influence..

i could deal with Phil's fuking counting with SJR...but on every down track now, it's a lil ridiculous heh

That stuff is right up my alley! My cup of beer so to say

 

[roastquake]

Haha at one point he pulls the ole' punk rock "one, two, fukk you!"

 

[DoomRider]

Definitely my MUG of beer as well!

 

[unionrdr]

In that case,maybe you guys can appreciate this one that I used to race down I480 to on the way home from work...nothin' like a lil 80's thrash...

Thought of this one while driving the '99 Mustang GT my son & I bought last Saturday. That Iron Maiden gallop def works...

 

[unionrdr]

Here's another one that happens on here all too often...wars of words;

Which,of course,can lead to this;

 

[DoomRider]

Fight > Turbo and Ram it Down Judas Priest! Halford was right leaving when he did. I am a pretty big Priest fan, but those albums are hard to get through. How on earth do you have the best dual guitar attack of K.K. Downing and Glenn Tipton, and decide synthesizers are a good idea? (Iron Maiden fans please don't attack!) I know, it was the 80's, but still.
Union, thanks for posting some good old school metal. Those are definitely good tracks to drive faster than one should.
To show the progression of metal, this might be something I would put on, if I decided to take the car out and speed.

 

[DoomRider]

Sludge/Doom forces collaborate and make one of the heaviest albums of 2014 (Thou/The Body). Check out the only track on youtube, and hopefully Vinyl Rites website will recover and you all can order the vinyl. For some reason, their site is messed up. Keep checking back, cause this release is a must have!



If you are not familiar with Thou, check out their website (http://noladiy.org/thoupast.html). They have a huge discography that they give away for free! If you like what you hear, go to Gilead Media (http://www.gileadmedia.net/) and couple other sites and buy their stuff!

Heavy Metal is the Law

I like the sound of the second movement on this track. Pretty good.

 

[headbanger]

Never been a fan but this new album is pretty solid...

Turbo is in the running for worst album ever made. If you were a Priest fan at the time and cared about metal at all, it was a serious insult. They were dead to all metal-heads as a result and then they went and made Painkiller, one of the best records in history. Everything since, with a couple of exceptions along with some of Halford's solo work, is garbage. The new record, sadly but not surprisingly, is also utter crap...



If this is the best they can do I say good riddance, it's really embarrassing when you think about Halford walking around referring to himself as "a metal god", what a joke.

 

[unionrdr]

Sounds like classic Priest to me,rather than something totally new.

I was driving around last Christmas when this came on the radio. My wife didn't understand why I was so appalled

Maybe in the songwriting it does lend itself to some earlier works, but it's totally weak and uninspired, the vocals are flat and everything else just sounds dull and mediocre at best. I'd love to see them churn out one more good one but, unless this is the weakest track on the forth-coming "last Priest record ever" it doesn't seem very promising to me.

Pure gold right there, metal god may arse!

 

[headbanger]

Maybe old Rob could use a lesson or two from JJ on how to properly defile the holidays..

 

[DoomRider]

Feels like a Saturday night to jam some "Mythological Occult Metal"



On my bucket list to see this band live!

I absolutely loved this album, if only for for the humor. I love when metal bands cash in on christmas

I wonder how that would sound if they played through the Marshall amps they used on British Steel rather than their huge fan-dangled digital racks.

Shizz,get rid of the racks & hook up to my Fender Rock Pro 1000 half stack in the studio. 100W of smooth tube power...:rockin:
