 | SadAndHolyGlow Congrats! The album that you recommended to me was my 1,000th rating! "Il etait une foret" by Gris was standard black metal fair for me with some great atmospheric edge, so I gave it a 3.5. Thanks again!
|
 | TheSpirit Hey man, how are you doing? Glad to still see you around these parts, you're like one of the few people that actually knows whats up with good black metal these days. Heard anything recently you think I may be into?
|
 | CaptainDooRight album is done: http://trvth.bandcamp.com/album/black-horse-plague
|
 | Skrapyard Hey, I haven't heard about Krallice directly from Gilead, but they've released every other Krallice album on vinyl about a year after the CD came out, so it's a pretty safe bet they will continue to do so. Gilead's owner is a huge fan of the band, so I don't see him giving up the opportunity to give them the vinyl treatment anytime soon.
|
 | Skrapyard Yeah, keeping that blog up would bring more harm and help to bands and labels that work hard to break even, let alone make a profit. I've been thinking about starting up a review-based blog in the wake of F
|
 | Skrapyard Dude, where did you find a copy of Spectres Over Gorgoroth? I want a physical copy of that album BAD.
|
 | Hawks Same to you bro. I'll talk to you later.
|
 | Hawks Exactly. I could be making a hell of a lot more, but I'm fine with what I have for now.
|
 | Hawks Well that's good. I went from working about 20 hours a week to a full 40. So at least I'm getting more money haha.
|
 | Hawks I can imagine. You seem to work a lot.
|
 | Hawks Lol yeah it's only about 9 in the morning here. I've been up since like 7, but haven't moved yet. But that's good that you're almost done for the weekend. I have the next 4 days off after working a few weeks straight. It definitely feels good.
|
 | Hawks Sweet, I'll do that as soon as I get my ass out of bed. Thanks my man.
|
 | Hawks Dude if you have a link you could give me for that White Medal album you rated recently, I'd really appreciate it. I really wanna check them out, but I'm so lazy when it comes to searching for download links lol.
|
 | Skrapyard All the info was there, was I just a bit confused by the abruptly changing tracks.
|
 | Skrapyard Finally listened to "Old Ways" today - it rules! A lot of tracks sound like they are two songs stuck together... are there untitled bits, kind of like Rhinocervs comps? Some of them sound related.
|
 | Skrapyard Thanks for the link man, great stuff from WM, as always.
|
 | Skrapyard Do you have rips of the "Blood O T'North Seeur/Lam" WM album and "Old Ways..." by chance?
|
 | Skrapyard Hell yeah, the split with Sexdrome is the best!
|
 | Skrapyard s*** man, that sucks! At least you managed to get something out of it though. Glad you hear your girlfriend is supportive of your interests, too. "subjected to whatever im listening to"... hahaha. Thanks for the heads up about the LB comp as well - money's tight for me at the moment, but if it doesn't disappear in the next few weeks I'll probably pick it up. I did get the Sump rerelease of their tracks from Old Ways - they were superb!
|
 | Skrapyard By the way, congrats on the wedding! How soon? She dig your music collection, or is she the type to write it off as a waste of space, time, and money?
|
 | Skrapyard Damn, that's far. Close to where George and Gaz of Sump are, though, so I'd probably swing by for shows if there were any. If all goes according to plan, I'll be studying philosophy, then heading back to the U.S. for a Ph.D in order to become a professor. I can't find any Durazis tapes for sale, but do yourself a favor and download "Prayer Rehearsal" - svper raw hymns to Satan. m/
|
 | Skrapyard Hey man, where in the UK do you live? I'm hoping to study in Cambridge after I graduate from college in the U.S. Also, do you happen to have any albums by the band Durazis?
|
 | CaptainDooRight right on bro, all good, i'm always down for collaborating music bro, let me know
|
 | Coast 5 months is insane. Haven't heard the absum/odz manouk split yet.
|
 | Coast Ha yeah, my RH-12 only just arrived here in Australia.
|
 | Coast Just ordered my Rhinocervs RH-13, thanks for the heads up!
|
 | ev0ken oh yeah, i notice that a few days ago, that there was some vinyl still left, when i was looking for a cassette of the self titled.
|
 | ev0ken nice ^^, yeah i bought that shirt and the ruin lust unmastered demo when i saw them live, i should of got the ash borer- ash borer tape, i'm kicking myself now for not getting it there.
|
 | ev0ken i got that same ash borer t-shirt too!!! :D
|
 | ctaxxxx As far as I know, no official date. Hopefully sooner than later though.
|
 | ctaxxxx Ended up liking that new Drudkh track so much that I already pre-ordered the damn thing. Hopefully my impulsiveness won't come back and bite me in the ass lol. Btw, got Rh-12 and I like it so far. RH-13 coming real soon; he releases s*** so fast! Guessing he's had these songs just sitting around and decided to sell them now, or he's just that good.
|
 | Skrapyard I'll keep my fingers crossed for another release, even if it's that old demo on vinyl. In brighter news, Ruin Lust might be putting out more material later this year - I saw them tonight and they played some new stuff that sounded good (though it was extremely distorted and I was mildly deaf at that point, so take the assessment with a grain of salt). Dunno if you picked up their tape, but it's a monster, and a marked improvement over the CD rip.
|
 | Skrapyard Seriously? Where'd you hear that? I certainly hope the continue making music...
|
 | Skrapyard Haha, well, it's a ways off I'm sure. Ash Borer LP is probably next on their plate, and I read somewhere that the new They Came at Dawn stuff is supposed to be new (yay!)
|
 | Skrapyard Thanks Chris! Didn't really want a pompous username, lol. Demo sounds pretty solid... just wish it was twice as long. :\
|
 | LordOfAlexandria Oh man, you're way more on top of things than I am! Spending money on tapes... being broke because of buying them... that's what m/ is all about hahaha.
|
 | LordOfAlexandria RH-07 is on my blog if you're interested in a digital copy (I assume you've purchased a copy? If not... do so... it's great).
|
 | ctaxxxx Cool. Is there any bands you wanna rec? I actually haven't looked into much of the underground bands other than the usual (AshBorer/FellVoices/BTC/Rhinocervs/etc).
|
 | ctaxxxx RH-11 tapes are in stock. I might wait for the pro-tape version myself, but they'ved the store with quite a few things as well.
|
 | ctaxxxx Been listening to the new Rhinocervs album and loving it! It's amazing, in my opinion.
|
 | ctaxxxx Nevermind! I just got my tapes in today!
|
 | ctaxxxx The Rh-11 tape? Damn. Guess i'm gonna have to wait a little. I still haven't gotten RH-7 and my other tapes from them yet.
|
 | ctaxxxx My tapes, including RH-07, haven't arrived yet either. Didn't know about the volahn/kallathon split though. Might look into it. Wonder if the guy behind Rhinocervs is also the untitled artist in the Odour of Dust
|
 | ctaxxxx Rhinocervs announced another album (http://rhinocervs.blogspot.com/2011/10/rh-11-untitled.html). I'm confused whether they are a band or simply just a label that release untitled albums lol. Or both. I already spent $30 on tapes 2 weeks ago too damn it!
|
 | Hawks Yeah the main thing is moving away for me. That's really what I'm looking forward to lol. As for the new WiTTR, I'm still pretty excited, but that new track they posted is pretty underwhelming. We'll see how the rest of the album is.
|
 | Hawks Ohhh I see. Hopefully s*** calms down for you soon haha. And thanks man! Yeah I'm just trying to get the **** out of my town. I'll most likely be studying pharmacy, but I'm not 100% sure on that one yet.
|
 | Hawks Haven't seen you around in a while man. What's been going on?
|
 | coneren but is her rack as big as your head?
|
 | coneren unless youre looking at a sweet pair of tits i asume
|
 | coneren still drunk you wanna party?oh god i should go back to bed
|

http://www.mediafire.com/?9gyj2lgmvuu
But you hate punk in drublic... :(
|
 | TomArnoldsArmpit I look forward to it. By the way, I put up a 100 list that has a grip of albums you might dig. Take a peek, and listen to the ones you haven't heard. Those are my recs to you :)
|
 | TomArnoldsArmpit Good as well. Working 55 hours a week (as per usual during summer) and bulls***ting with friends. As for the recs; Anything but dubstep and/or country.
|
 | TomArnoldsArmpit How you doin' kid? Rec me some s***. I grow tired of seeing lists with the same albums on them (mine included).
|
 | BallsToTheWall http://news.yahoo.com/gunmans-background-puzzles-police-norway-044701742.html
|
 | BallsToTheWall 92 people? what the **** last time I heard it was 16 what the **** happened
|
 | Hawks Yeah dude it's amazing. Sadly they've only recorded the one album. MA says they're active though so I'm hoping for some new stuff from them soon. You're gonna love the album for sure though.
|
 | Hawks Yeah you're definitely gonna love it. It's one of my favorite black metal albums of all time.
|
 | Hawks Dude please tell me you've heard Graveforests and Their Shadows by Walknut.
|
 | ev0ken Cool thanks moose. I would of responded sooner, but I wasn't near a pc the last few days
|
 | TomArnoldsArmpit You know that hopeless sound we both like in the same vein of GJ and Converge? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyeOXCBaMM0 --- Listen.
|
 | TomArnoldsArmpit Based loosely on your ratings, listen to Dead and Divine - The Machines We Are. I bet you'll love it.
|
 | ev0ken i buy tons of cds, i've gotten like around 200 cds so far this year lol, but all of them are mostly dm and metal, i haven't picked up too much bm, cause there are harder to find for me, but with these stores u gave me i can at least pick up some now :D, i just gotta figure some prices out.
|
 | ev0ken nice man, thanks for all the info. i already checked out like 4 of those stores. that one Odour of Dust
|
 | ctaxxxx New Arizmenda sounds good. Won't hurt to spoil at least a little bit right? ;)
|
 | Hawks Oh alright sweet. I still need to check out their EP and the split with Book of Belial. I'll make sure to get on those.
|
 | Obfuscation24 tbh youre kvlt but not in the MURDER BLOOD DEATH way but like sup dudes i listen to black metal and rape churches, wanna go get ice cream?. also you were one of the first people to hype Ash Borer here if im not mistaken so you got indie cred
|
 | nick0307 yeah how ****ing great was starwing. do yourself a favour and download the soundtrack for it. its incredible. truly incredible.
|
 | ctaxxxx You did? Nice. I'm waiting for a leak since i'm cheap lol
|
 | ctaxxxx Okay thanks. They also just released an Odour of Dust
|
 | ctaxxxx Hey saw that you got an Axeman tape awhile back. I just got mine today (finally) and it turns out the 2nd side only comes through the left stereo, nothing in the right. Was this the same for you or did they screw me over?...
|
 | Hawks Sweet man, thanks. I'll do that later on today.
|
 | Hawks Hey dude I see you gave Nattens Madrigal a 5. You should check out my new review for Arising Realm by Ragnarok, same second-wave Norwegian black metal style. I think you would dig it.
|
 | Yeahtoast Haha, no problem man. I know the bassist :D
|
 | Yeahtoast http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp9g6rfifLYDeath metal act from where I come from, bitchin' tune :D
|
 | Yeahtoast Nawwwwwwh thanks a lot man :D appreciate the kind words! I do think that review is one of the best I've written, it was quite spontanious but I managed to keep it at a length I like...don't think that's ever happened before or since haha! Was really annoying me that album hadn't been reviewed yet, as it is quite the classic! I love death man, it's always great getting into new s*** though :) so good luck on your journey!
|
 | Yeahtoast Sweet man! I'll probably check it out :D
|
 | Yeahtoast Ah, how is the DVD? I've been digging them a lot lately, especially Resurrection. And Eyes Of A Criminal is a ****ing badass song.
|
 | Yeahtoast Impossiblity of Reason a 5? Nice man, Chimaira are quite underrated around here imo. And on that note, sorry for snooping :p
|
 | salival13 Thanks dude, I am loving the EP also. Let me know how their LP compares.
|
 | Apollo double post fail :/ sorry about that haha
|
 | Apollo yeah man, they have been my favourite band for about 6 years. Every album is pretty much flawless but Still Life and Blackwater Park are probably my two favorites :)
|
 | Apollo solid taste in metal Moose
|
 | Yeahtoast Lol same, great s*** to work out to and grt you pumped for stuff!
|
 | Yeahtoast Thanks Moose ^_^ also it's nice to see another Hatebreed fan on this site hahaha!
|
 | Yeahtoast Dude just scanning through your ratings, did you happen to get a torrent for Cultura by Breed 77?? I've been dying to find either a physical copy or a torrent but can't get either :/
|
 | vanderb0b No problem. Mercyful Fate is a love it or hate it band, particularly the vocals. Wintersun is a mix of black and power metal with a strong emphasis on melody.
|
 | vanderb0b Hey man, I saw your black metal list, check out: Dissection-Storm of the Light's Bane, Wintersun-Wintersun, and Mercyful Fate-Melissa
|
 | maidenpmcc Ok dude, talk soon. Enjoy your chinese.
|
 | maidenpmcc I could of put that album or any other album from the golden period in, wouldn't of made a difference. I put in NOTB, Seventh Son, BNW and Dance Of Death I think so that's enough Maiden albums in there. Lol.
|
 | maidenpmcc Your an old fart? Na man your still pretty young just like myself, I'm 22. Early 20's is a good age phase, make the msot of it while you can so that when you hit your 30's you wouldn't be like - I wish I did this and that. Because what better time than now eh, it's only one chance and we're living it right now. Well the list isn't in order after the 1st album. After the 1st album, it's in no order after that.
|
 | maidenpmcc Their next album should be kiler, it's DevilDriver sure. What age are you dude? Have you checked out my Top Metal/Rock albums list? I forget.
|
 | maidenpmcc Yea I will get the first album for definate, I'm not the sort of guy that has 3/4 albums from one band or anything like that. I don't know who's producing, probably the dude who did it last. Are you a fan of Coal Chamber? I'm not into them, not my vibe at all.
|
 | maidenpmcc Actually it will be my 4th because there's another news article that I forgot about - New Order of Ennead album.
|
 | maidenpmcc After you told me that, I went and checked it out and thats what I got. I went and posted it so we will see if a staff member approve's it. If it does get approved, that will be my 3rd news article approved after "New Serj Tankian album" and "New As i Lay Dying Full Song"
|
 | maidenpmcc Hmmmm I don't know from what I heard which is their last 3 albums (haven't heard the first album yet). Would probably be The Last Kind Words. Go to the home of page and click on metal on the top, tell me which news article you see.
|
 | maidenpmcc Would you know what terrorizor gave PFV? I didn't know they already have plans for their next album, that's good news though =] DEP, my mates a big fan of them. I'm sure your digging their latest album. Are you interested in Limp Bizkit's new album - Gold Cobra?
|
 | maidenpmcc Same as me man, once I GET INTO a band I love them and have to get all their albums so that's what I did with Opeth and a few other bands. Aye Converge, I listened to Jane Doe yesterday and I didn't think it would be that heavy and extreme. Are you a fan of Devildriver? Could you remember what rating metal hammer or terrorizor gave Pray For Villains?
|
 | maidenpmcc Aye I got the special edition of Blackwater Park recently, it's good for the album cover alone but the documentary is also ace. I don't know if you would be fussed on Orchid, Morningrise and My Arms, Your Hearse. Ghost Reveries would my favorite overall album and my favorite Opeth song is on it - Ghost of perdition. I LOVE the last like 50 seconds on that song.
|
 | maidenpmcc Ghost Reveries and Watershed both got 9/10, Ghost reveries is a better album so I would rate it higher instead of having the same rating. Terrorizor gave Ghost reveries 9.5 and album of the month. I'm guessing they gave Watershed a 9, do you remember? Yeah dude, you should definately get into Opeth. Listen to Blackwater Park and Still Life.
|
 | maidenpmcc Could you also check for me the ratings metal hammer gave Watershed (may 2008) and Ghost reveries (august 2005)? These are the last two mate I wanna find out. If not, that's ok.
|
 | maidenpmcc Yea I'm a Maiden fanatic, best band in the world ever. True die hard, it's in my backbone lol. No band touches them, wether it's Metallica of Opeth (who I love).
|
 | maidenpmcc I like NOLA and Down II aswell, can't wait to get their 4th album late this year or early next year. I'm not a fan of Bleeding Through. Funny enough, i'm just listening to Converge right now for the 1st time on youtube. It's the Jane Doe album which is apparently their best album. I'm on track 9 of 12 right now.
|
 | maidenpmcc Oh right, I was gonna add you if you had a ps3 and ask if you had the new Battlefield Bad Company 2 and Modern Warfare 2. Machine Head's The Blackening is ok, its far too over-rated. It's definately not a 10, nooo way. I love Down's Over The Under though, brilliant album and my favorite of theirs. So who would be your favorite band of all time?
|
 | maidenpmcc Yea Blood Mountain got 10/10 and so did A Matter of Life and Death. Are there any other metal albums that comes to mind that Metal Hammer gave a 10 to? By the way, have you got a ps3?
|
 | maidenpmcc 6/10, is that all? I thought it would of got a better rating. I personally love that album and I cant wait until I get The Powerless Rise, 3 years is a long time. A couple of weeks ago, I pre-ordered a bundle of their merchandise site and it includes a signed copy of the new album, a thsirt and a poster. It will come on the day of release which is 11th may. Cost £31 so it's not bad.
|
 | maidenpmcc Other ratings from that issue were Lamb of God's Sacrament which they gave a 9 and Slayer's Christ Illusion which they gave an 8. You probably have that issue. From september 2006 and it show's the cover of A Matter of Life and Death on the front.
|
 | maidenpmcc Aye I remember reading that, it got metal hammer album of the year for 2009 but I just wanted to know what rating it got but now I know. I only have one metal hammer issue and it's from september 2006. I got it because Maiden were on the front cover. It was around the time A Matter of Life and Death got rated. They gave it 10 and also Blood Mountain was rated in that issue and they also gave that a 10.
|
 | maidenpmcc If it isn't any trouble, could you also check what metal hammer gave Mastodon's Crack The Skye? It came out on march 2009. If not, that's cool man. By the way, I'm from Northern Ireland.
|
 | maidenpmcc Could you tell me what rating metal hammer give AILD's An Ocean Between us? the album came out in august 2007 so it should be in that issue.
|
 | maidenpmcc Have you got all the Terrorizer issues, like every one from the past 3-4 years say? By the dude, where you from? Ypu said asda so your from the UK like me. I'm from Northern Ireland.
|
 | maidenpmcc Yea dude Kerrang might aswell be just a fashion mag because you see all these gay bands in it POSING in it like The Blackout etc and it makes me sick. Its far from a metal mag now. I used to get Kerrang every week for the past 4 years religously without miss and there recently I have decided to stop buying it. My mate get's Terrorizor every month and has been for years and I'm gonna start buying Metal Hammer for now on because at least that mag IS metal and worth buying and reading.
