I didn't realize they were back in action. What sort of sound are they going with now? They went through so many different styles over the course of time when they were pretty active.

 

Honestly, it wasn't that much different than the self titled.

 

Blood Incantation last night was awesome. The stage banter was everything I heard about and more.

"We are Blood Incantation from Colorado. We're going to play some songs about outer space stuff and the meaning of existence. This song is about the space between spaces and what happens when you die. It's called Chaoplasm"

 

Nice, I didn't think they were playing anymore.

 

Yeah, they just started up a small reunion tour.

 

TOTALLY GOING

KILLER lineup.

edit: Damn it. No Dallas date.

 

Stopping in the Netherlands between San Francisco and Salt Lake City but no Seattle? lame lol

 

Just picked up Between the Buried and Me: Coma Ecliptic: Live. So far it's really great.

 

Also, I finally got around to the new Mastodon. It is pretty amazing.

 

I am not going out to Worcester in the middle of the damn week, otherwise I'd so be there

 

Just listened to Metalsucks podcast where they interview Trey Williams of Dying Fetus. The new album is going to rip faces off. That NFSW video they released is awesome!

 

New Celeste trailer

 

Just about halfway through the year, figured I'd share my favs at this point so far. Not gonna rank them yet but here they are:

Power Trip (thrash/crossover)
The Ominous Circle (death/black)
The Great Old Ones (post-black)
Benighted (death/grind)
Artificial Brain (tech death)
Extremity (death)
God Dethroned (blackened death)
Elder (stoner/doom)
Condor (death/thrash)

 

Im loving the new Thy Art Is Murder track. Pretty excited for their new LP.

 

The 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time

 

Open link. See Avenged Sevenfold and Evanescence. Close link.

 

What a weird list. No Altars of Madness is unforgivable. I've listened to 47 of these lol

 

I think overall the list is pretty good coming from such a popular music source such as Rolling Stone, which shows that they have some great people on board that are paying attention. With that being said, I will echo the thought that some of the choices are a little bizarre like Evanescence. I am not sure what impact they truly had on the heavy music scene, other than maybe making Christian metal/hardcore more apparent and accessible.

 

No Breaking Benjamin. List is invalid.

 

Some of the placements on that list are so strange and a few I wouldn't even consider to be metal (Van Halen, Def Leppard). Also where the fuck is Attack Attack!? Some bs right there

 

This is a terrible list... oh Rolling Stone... ok, that makes sense.

 

At least Sunn O))) is greater than Sevenged Avenfold according to them.

 

Laughed out loud when I realised they'd included an Evanescence album but not THE GREAT SOUTHERN TRENDKILL!!
