Stay within your Metal Zone, we don't want people like you listening to our music.

Get out of my thread. You probably have deficient hygiene and I don't want you stinking it up.

Arkangel - Dead Man Walking 6/10


Thrash

Exodus - Tempo of the Damned n/a but will predict around 5/10
Exhorder - The Law Again n/a but heard Slaughter in the Vatican so probably 3/10 but that could change

Prong - Cleansing n/a
Boris - Pink 6/10

You do realize you just gave away your opinions on many of the albums I rec'd you in Love/Hate, don't you?

Just two. And you don't actually know what I feel about them, yet, on an individual, track-by-track basis, just whether I dug them or not. Still, couldn't let DWV's terrible slur on metal in general go unanswered.

I don't think I want to follow this thread anyways. No Orange Goblin? No The Sword? No Wo Fat? And you call yourself the Heavy Metal King. You sit on a throne of lies.

I sit on a throne of crushed beer cans, like any True Metalhead. The naked chicks sit on top of the cans.
