Metal month? Wow, I'm excited for that.

You know... I've long known what the cover for Load was, and yet, the better part of fifteen years later, I just got the double entendre.

Naturally, my own preference would be for Prog Month (duh!) but then again, I feature a lot of Prog in my journals anyway, so maybe that wouldn't be necessary. Country Month could be interesting, but who would read that? You know, there's nothing stopping you doing Psych Month or Folk Month or whatever: I don't have copyright on the idea (Copyright Trollheart Enterprises MMXIII, all rights reserved. Any copyright infringemnent will be vigorously contested in court) so anyone else is free to do it. Batty did a month themed around the likes of ICP if I recall. There is a lot of work though, and really once you start --- even once you announce it --- you have to see it through unless you want your readers to see you as a flake, so if you were intending to try it might I suggest an exploratory Week first? I had intended to do Metal Week originally but then decided I couldn't cover all I wanted to in one week, so extended it to four. But then, I'm clinically insane, as we all know, and a lost cause... ;) So the short answer is no, I don't think so. I also want Metal Month to stand out each year, not get subsumed within a plethora of other features like Country, Prog or (God help us) Pop Month.... |

All right. In terms of requested albums here's what I have so far:
Mastodon --- Blood mountain Cavalera Conspiracy -- Inflikted Sigh --- Imaginary sonicscape Znowhite --- Act of God Draconian --- Arcane rain fell Cryptopsy --- None so vile Dissection --- Storm of the light's bane Arcturus --- La masquerade infernale Mondstille --- Seelenwund Urfaust -- Geist ist teufel Gallowbraid --- Ashen elaidon Conan --- Monnos Metallica --- Load and Reload THAT certainly prompted some "wrong spelling/unknown word" underlining! :rofl: ALL of these albums will be reviewed, as you guys were first to the post, however Batty if I end up swamped I may have to cut down your tree, sorry three to one: which would you most prefer I listened to (as if I couldn't guess! Gimme a C! Gimme an R! Gimme a Y! --- is it coincidence that the first part of Cryptopsy spells cry..? :shycouch:) I'm still happy to take requests but given that there are time constraints and I don't want to be doing ten updates a day (arf!) newer ones may have to be cherry-picked. But by all means keep them coming... |

Yeah, that Sigh album is killer. I like the love its been getting in here.
I know I recommended a few last time, but for the life of me I can't remember what I did. So here are some of my personal favorites from over the years: Chthonic - Seediq Bale Megadeth - Rust In Peace Emperor - In the Nightside Eclipse And I want to throw some new stuff at you as well. Carcass - Surgical Steel Pallbearer - Foundations of Burden Those two are pretty far apart from each other in style, so if you want to ignore my other recs just do those two. I'd be interested to see what you think of either. |
