Thanks, I do my best.



Ruins is one of many 2018 albums on my Christmas wishlist, so my year-end top 10 will remain uncertain up to the very end of the year.

So like, everything, basically.

I thought they were just a load of competent but uninspired Death worship. Especially the melodies struck me as very uninspired. Loads of mediocre guitar leads all...

I've heard two of these. I thought the Gorilla Toss album was fun, but I do not get the point of Horrendous. Or at least what's so great about them.

I remembered liking it but hadn't heard it since it came out, then decided to come back to it since I was looking for something to listen to.

Stam1na, Arkona and Dir En Grey brings their A game this year as well. The 3 best metal albums of the year for me. I've posted several times about all three before and nobody in here cares about any...

Coming back to it, it kinda bothers me how forced the vocals sound. Like he's trying super hard to sound as depressed/detached as possible. I'm somehow not buying into him having any emotional...

I just want to listen to music until I go to bed, so I'm taking some time to revisit various 2018 albums. Maybe I can move closer to having any idea what I think is the best album of the year if I...

Lol I'm surprised there haven't been any fights about that statement yet. I feel like there would have been if Elph or Zhanthemi had said it.

I won't know what my AOTY is before the year is over, but I'm seeing some front runners. That Beth Rowley album I've got is great, and so are the albums from Alela Diane, Dir En Grey, Stam1na and...

I agree with that. What I'm thinking about is more how music affects those who are used to listening to all manner of underground material. That Daugters album, for example, would probably have...

What direction is even left then if you wanna do something provocative or challenging? Maybe focusing on making the lyrics as politically charged as possible. MAGA-rock!

lol I know that. Although some music makes me want to inflict self harm. Mostly some of that tepid pop-R&B crap they're playing on the radio around these parts.

But doesn't all that subversive art...

To me, that album mostly doesn't register as "confrontational". I hear it as a form of post rock/metal hybrid. Post rock is more expressive of angst and other emotions, but not so focused on...

No music is dangerous no matter how much attitude it has. It's just sound. What that Daughters album has, that people love, is atmosphere. At least that's how I see it.

I like it because of the songwriting. The mix on the album really does its best to sabotage some fundamentally good tunes.

To me, it's just kind of a slightly weaker copy of the album they put out...

It's anything but instant, that's for sure. I didn't even like it at first. Now I think it's brilliant. Most of the tracks are super long and complicated and take a while to settle. Having listened...
