June 15, 201511 yr Well done, boys .... love the HC concert connection. Colin ... you got an extra for me, right?
January 4, 20179 yr Shape of Despair, Alone in the Mist -- Bandcamp streaming and purchase link I thought their last album -- Monotony Fields -- was a nice return to form, back to the Shades of... and Angels of Distress era, but this might be even better. Doom. Just funereally paced, cavernous reverb-washed doom, where it takes them 5 minutes to sing one 4-line verse. EDIT: It's a remaster of their 1998 demo, that might explain why it literally harkens back to their early days.
March 22, 20179 yr You guys. I haven't bought an album in the middle of listening to it for the first time in ages. Check this out. They're from Quebec.
December 20, 20178 yr I've recently discovered a couple of good ones in a genre that I didn't know existed: Myrkur - if Loreena McKennitt played black metal, it would sound like this. Summoning - ambient black-folk metal. Damn, so good.

After listening to your birthday list, I think you might like.

After listening to your birthday list, I think you might like. Amaranthe ticks the Taylor Swift and gothic boxes I think, not so much the atmospheric.
December 22, 20178 yr Summoning, Myrkur -- yeah, these are 6oth aweʃome. Will give Amaranthe some listens next.
December 22, 20178 yr This kinda defies categorization, but I like it. Melodic death metal meets delta blues and some other stuff along the way?

August 1, 20187 yr First time listening to this album all the way through. It's really good. Can't wait to see them in 6.5 weeks.
August 7, 20187 yr Meanwhile ... https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/08/07/elderly_men_escape_care_home_to_go_to_wacken_open_air/ ?
August 7, 20187 yr Meanwhile ...https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/08/07/elderly_men_escape_care_home_to_go_to_wacken_open_air/ [emoji869] I'm sure there's more to the story, but damn, they should have waited till after the festival to drag them back to the home.
August 7, 20187 yr Especially given the German Engineering involved ... https://www.dw.com/en/german-metalheads-construct-beer-pipeline-for-wacken/a-38962724
