More Vinyl
Another list of new vinyl LPs I picked up. Enjoy! |
| 1 | | Sigur Ros
Ágætis Byrjun
For anyone who listens to Sigur Ros, you know how amazing this album is. Sweeping melodies, epic
climaxes, and sorrowful intermissions. This is probably in my top 10 favorite albums of all time. |
| 2 |  | Genghis Tron
Board Up The House
Genghis Tron's name jumped out at me when I first listened to them a few months ago, and ever since,
I've been hooked. Intense music, but very eerie at times on this record. It's got danceable breaks, it has
mosh-til-your-back-breaks heaviness, and head-bobbin' catchiness. Amazing album, and on the D
side, it
has a laser etching of the album art--SICK |
| 3 |  | A Life Once Lost
Iron Gag
Always liked this band ever since I saw them at Ozzfest 2006 (I think), and this album was sitting in the
bargain bin at my local record shop. Limited Edition Red vinyl with black swirls. |
| 4 | | HORSE the Band
Shape Shift 7
HORSE the Band will always have a special place in my heart (no homo) and I jumped at the opportunity
to have the new single on a 7" clear vinyl. |
| 5 |  | Blue Sky Black Death
Late Night Cinema
Blue Sky Black Death is responsible for my relapse into hip hop. This is different hip-hop though. No
lyrics,
just instrumental, beat makin' bliss. An excellent record, sounds even better on vinyl. |
| 6 |  | Slayer
Haunting the Chapel
They recently re-released four Slayer albums or EPs on limited edition blood-splattered vinyls. Of
course,
you can't be a fan of metal, without praising classic Slayer. |
| 7 |  | Slayer
Hell Awaits
Another bloody good Slayer album. Come on.... |
| 8 |  | Slayer
Show No Mercy
And another, same as the other three. Give it up. |
| 9 |  | Dillinger Escape Plan
Ire Works
Dillinger Escape Plan is just one of those bands you can use to scare the crap out of your younger
siblings.
Brutality and calculated intensity is the name of their game, and the technicality of their musicianship
(especially on their earlier albums) is so good it's scary. |
| 10 |  | Lamb of God
New American Gospel
No one can deny the ridiculousness of Black Label. This album is responsible for getting me into metal
so
many years ago. I still remember the first time I heard that song, I was shocked that I enjoyed it so
much. |
| 11 |  | Lamb of God
As the Palaces Burn
This album is on a picture disc, and it makes me smile. |
| 12 |  | Lamb of God
Ashes of the Wake
Amazing album, probably their best, besides the debut album. |
| 13 |  | Lamb of God
Sacrament
I'm pretty sure I got this album the same day as the other three, just to make sure I got the entire
discography (at the time). |
| 14 |  | Lamb of God
Wrath
LoG's newest offering was pretty well executed. Not sure about a few of the songs, but I can definitely
say
I cannot wait to see these bastards live again. |
| 15 |  | Tool
Undertow
Classic Tool album, their most... metal album I think. Disgustipated is incredibly enjoyable for me, for
some
reason. |
| 16 |  | Nine Inch Nails
Year Zero
Trent being paranoid, offering up a new, glitchy, poppy album for his fans to eat up. Gotta love that
political
commentary. |
| 17 |  | Clutch
Jam Room
I like the way they approached this album. Just go and record what WE want, and go from there. The
sounds that come from the speakers when playing this album make me smile. |
| 18 | | Mastodon
Divinations (Single)
Limited Edition picture disc with an instrumental version on the b-side. YAY |
