10.14.12 | I didn't like their new album very much. |
JamieTwort
10.14.12 | Have you heard Holy Mountain - Earth Measures? |
greg84
10.14.12 | Nah. I haven't. Is it any good? |
JamieTwort
10.14.12 | Yeah, it's a really good stoner metal album. |
greg84
10.14.12 | Gunner sounds good. I'll check out the whole album. |
MeatSalad
10.14.12 | Colour Haze - She Said |
greg84
10.14.12 | I've been meaning to give it a spin before. Thanks for reminding me. |
TheNotrap
10.14.12 | Sweet.
#3 is on my next week jam digs.
|
greg84
10.14.12 | 3 is an amazing sludge record from New Zealand. I love it. |
insomniac15
10.14.12 | So much win on this list. Can't wait for The Black Code to come out officially , as well as Minds Through Space And Time :D |
menawati
10.14.12 | damn, more stuff i gotta listen to, nice list |
greg84
10.14.12 | The new Valis is stellar indeed. |
Titan
10.14.12 | #8 is a great record......not enough exposure |
greg84
10.14.12 | Hmm. I've just noticed it has an average rating of 3.6. No comments. |
Titan
10.14.12 | yeah, i was there not too long ago....kind of disappointing |
jayfatha
10.14.12 | Mudbath - Red Desert Orgy |
halloway
10.14.12 | 24 fucking rules. Didn't know there was a new haarp. Gotta try out 3, 19, and 22 yet. Thanks for making this list.
Also, 15 made me lol. Man goo? With a mushroom with white stuff on the album art? Wait, it's called Neverland? I hope
this is tongue-in-cheek.
Turbo edit: Oh, I'd rec Pilgrim's Misery Wizard. One of my favs from the year. |
Eclecticist
10.14.12 | I really enjoyed most of these. I thought 22 was boring though. |
greg84
10.14.12 | Thanks for recs guys.
@halloway:
You're welcome. Neverland blends fuzz rock with some notable progressive rock elements. It's a solid album that very often relies on infectious hooks. Gonna check out Pilgrim for sure.
@Eclecticist:
Yeah. 22 could've been better. I really dig the lyrics, but the music ges monotonous at times. |
CarlSagan
10.14.12 | Wow, i thought i was the only one who heard of Young Hunter. Pretty good record, they came to my town and played a local show. More people should know about them |
menawati
10.14.12 | am liking 3 from what i heard so far, some of the black sabbathy riffs r very nice |
greg84
10.14.12 | @CarlSagan:
YH definitely deserve more recognition. The album is great.
@menawati:
Yeah. They also have these strong bass lines that derive from noise rock... and the singer is out of this world. |
ViralOblivion
10.14.12 | No Rwake? Disappointed |
Thor
10.14.12 | no mention of neurosis is fail |
greg84
10.14.12 | Rwake came out las year. And I'm pretty sure Neurosis are post-metal. I tried to omit this genre. |
ViralOblivion
10.14.12 | Oh this year my bad |
ViralOblivion
10.14.12 | I'm writing some of these down tho looks like sme stuff I could enjoy |
greg84
10.14.12 | Cool. I hope you'll like some of those. |
SteelErectedb4you8er
10.16.12 | Thanks for including us on your list for the year, man! Greatly appreciated, and above Pallbearer....consider me flattered. Killer list. I am going to try and accept the vibrato of the new Witch Mountain...I am going to see them in November, I am sure that won't hurt! |
greg84
10.16.12 | They've just released the new EP for free download:
http://www.scionav.com/artist/1586#!collection/1146/Witch-Mountain-EP
It's well worth checking out. |
SteelErectedb4you8er
10.16.12 | I just saw that. I will check it out after the tour or when we have down time. We are trying to find things to do in Little Rock at the moment before our show. |
greg84
10.16.12 | Aha. Cool man. Have a great one! |
Dunpeal
10.16.12 | def gotta chk more stuff on this list, since i see a few digs. gave lord fowl a listen but didn't dig the vocals |
greg84
10.16.12 | I didn't like this record at first, but it really grew on me and now I listen to it regularly. |
Dunpeal
10.16.12 | cool man. i got so much shiz queued up tho. not much luvs for growers atm i'm afraid |
greg84
10.16.12 | Well. I especially value records which are growers. They often rank very high on my year end lists. I get bored quite quickly with albums I initially really like. |
Dunpeal
10.16.12 | i don't get bored as much as i probably should haha |
greg84
10.16.12 | I know... but I often find out that I like the album at first 'cause it sounds so familiar and then I just stop listening to it. With growers the situation is quite different. You listen to them more and more. |
Dunpeal
10.16.12 | honestly, i think the concept of growers is lost on me. can't remember the last grower i experienced. i either like the whole package or i don't. not to mean songs vs. entire album. like if i'm not feeling the vocals, it's tough for me to move past that, especially since it's like the most recognizable part of most songs
i'm guessing you at least liked LF's vocals at first listen, yes? |
greg84
10.16.12 | Nah. Not all of them at least. I only liked some songs which are the easiest to like because they're so accessible. Now I think that the record is not without its faults: so tracks just sound a bit too typical, but I definitely feel it's a strong record. |
Dunpeal
10.16.12 | yeah that was my issue. vocals + sounding too typical. but i only youtubed liked 2 tracks so perhaps i'll give the whole album a run
@ potato lol idk man |
greg84
10.16.12 | Well. Check out this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0aoCBPEvQQ |
Dunpeal
10.16.12 | haha yeah instrumentation got highlighted on that one. damn, if it was all like that with minimalist vocals and he sang in a lower pitch/range it'd be killer. i'll give it another run in the future |
greg84
10.16.12 | Yeah. The instrumentation is killer throughout the LP. You just need to listen to it more to get all the details. The album's incredibly diverse so you'll find very different tracks, some of them get way more doomier than others. |
ShadowRemains
10.16.12 | drug honkey - ghost in the fire |
Dunpeal
10.16.12 | nice. props on the list btw |
greg84
10.16.12 | I didn't know drug honkey have a new album. I dug some of their previous stuff. I'll give it a spin for sure. |
