Yes. Primus sucks. (In a good way)

Try out the Frizzle Fry album for some odd yet catchy funk metal.

In a good way?

Tried it. Not a fan.

I thought it was going to be Primus.

Same

"Primus sucks" is a running joke in the band's fanbase.

...I'm just now noticing how nonsense the lyrics to "Dissident Aggressor" are. Even Dio would call this song bonkers.

Maybe it's a subtle reference to the intricacies of the Cold War?

About time. I actually listened to all their albums two days ago. Bumped two of them up.

Meh, Alestorm doesn't really do much for me anymore.

It is my 20th birthday! Any music recommendations?

Galborea wrote:Depends. If you want more old-school black metal with a slight bit of melody (not at Dissection levels) and Viking aesthetic, go to the albums Frost, Eld, and Mardraum. For the newer prog black metal, the best albums would be Monumension, Below the Lights, Axioma Ethica Odini, and RIITIIR

I'm usually more of a fan of more unique approaches of black metal than old school black metal. Not that that can't be unique, too, it just doesn't appeal to me as much with just straight up black metal. So I'll add the latter ones.

Yup, heard funk stuff before. Not this specific band, but, as mentioned, Primus, which you heard, and some of Faith No More

Ugly, fat and alive
Twenty years of thrash ´til death
Ugly, fat and alive
Bangin´ ´til our final breath
Ugly, fat and alive
Always held the bottles high
Ugly, fat and still alive

At least that's what I was listening to on my 20th birthday

That made more sense when I realised it was one long link.

I think Lendol got it for ya, albeit 1 year off according to 'Murican law. But you still need to listen to Epica's work AFTER they got the drummer and guitarist of God Dethroned.

So apparently Soulburn put an album out last year and I had completely missed it.

by **Impaled Nazarene** » Fri Jan 06, 2017 8:43 pm

Anyone know what gear Rick Rozz used on Massacre's From Beyond? I need a sound like that.

Design Your Universe is one of my all time favorite albums but it's a bit of a tricky one to get into with its progginess (ahem almost 14 minute long opus) but anything after that one is good too. The Quantum Enigma is more accessible and the new album The Holographic Principle is probably their heaviest.

If you guys thought Suicide Silence was terrible before, the new song is even worse.

You know something is bad when it has more dislikes than likes.

Is this another band that is supposed to be good but went to shit?

Nope. They were never good

Unless you're a big fan of mid-2000s deathcore. That was definitely never my thing though.

Fun live show, but yeah, I would never seek out Alestorm just for normal listening.

I know I'm the only one here who actually likes a large amount of deathcore but this band has NEVER been good. Sometimes tolerable but far more often just plain shit. The funny thing is this vocalist USED to be good in his old band All Shall Perish.

like I said on the video
This makes the new In Flames album sound like an all time classic.

Recently got back into Mastodon. I forgot how good Crack the Skye is.

Yikes, that's bad. I don't recall In Flames ever being, y'know, remotaly enjoyable.
