Spider God:

 

Loved the Seth album (re: BM recs)

 

Some cool bm

also there’s the arizmenda album. I need to revisit.

 

More heat outta RVA

 

Kings

 

That's pretty cool lol

 

Meant to post the other day but saw Judas Priest and Queensryche on Tuesday and that shit ruled

 

I would have lost my shit seeing this song live.

 

Todd sounded good, wish Geoff was still with them but it was a good time.

Priest pulled out some deep cuts which ruled

 

doing an iron maiden discog run, currently at a matter of life and death. powerslave is still my favorite

Piece of Mind- Revelations
Brave New World- The Nomad
Number of the Beast- 22 Acacia Ave

The Final Frontier- Man Who Would Be King
No Prayer for the Dying- Fates Warning
Virtual XI- The Clansman

 

i hated virtual xi so much

 

Yeah, not that great of an album but the Clansman is pretty good.

I would love X Factor up a little more today personally

 

really love a matter of life and death. i'm not sure when this band got so hot on so many 8+ minute tracks on an album but i'm okay with it lmao

 

Got tickets to Antichrist Siege Machine/Miasmatic Necrosis/Thantifaxath/Killing Pace in RVA in a couple weeks. Stoked to actually eek in a metal show before the end of the year.

 

I'm jealous, man. My wife is pregnant so I'm trying to avoid indoor crowds, but I really wanted to go to this one.

 

This is only my fifth show this year so I'll take them whenever I can get it...I've been lucky enough to at least see Converge twice this year so this year has been a win regardless.

This yours and your wife's first?

 

Yep, our first. Equal parts excited and terrified!

 

Good luck, enjoy it, and cherish the time when they are young. My wife and I just had our second in February and have a three year old too. It's simultaneously been on of the most exciting and terrifying times of my life. It's also flown by way too quickly.

 

Thanks dude! Definitely appreciate the advice and please keep it coming because I'll take as much as I can get lol.

On a more metal-related note, I'm already working on a battle jacket for the little dude because I'm dumb like that.

 

Stench by way of Bolt Thrower

 

Most played “metal” album was
Counterparts - AEFTSH according to AM.

Not the biggest surprise as I didn’t really get caught by a lot of Metal releases this year, but also well deserved as they absolutely crushed it on the newest.

 

some of my favorite metal of the year:

wake
liminal shroud
fit for an autopsy
counterparts
end & cult leader
conjurer
wormrot

what else is essential listening from this year? ive probably heard but forgotten a decent amount

 

I am going to need more than three US dates please. This is one of my favorite albums of all time.
