Yeah I like their others much more. Opus is a bit hard to go back to honestly.I really do not know what is so special on that Ghost album... the weakest by far IMO

I ask this about every Ghost albumI really do not know what is so special on that Ghost album... the weakest by far IMO
Yeah, like say Nespithe, that's an album that I believe didn't get the notoriety it has now until YEARS afterwards. I'm sure other albums are similar but they're escaping my mind, was Disembowelment's album one that slowly gained reception?I think having a decade list now is pretty shitty anyway. 2019 isn't even over yet, and I doubt many releases this year got much consideration since they're so new and you don't know the impact. Wait until publications and such have figured out 2019's music.

Holyfuck...totally blown away by this new Blood Incantation album. I loved every second of those 36 minutes. The Giza Power Plant is just...fucking incredible. This feels like it's my AOTY already.
This song/vid rules. I'll be addicted to this album for a long time.
I really enjoy the album but it's a bit deflating to wait this long feeling like "okay, every song they've put out is awesome, can't wait to finally hear the full thing" and then it comes out and it's like "oh i've already heard half of it and those were the best songs"
GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUYS! Someone reminded me BOLT THROWER exist but I don't know what album to start with. Like, they're fucking rad, but what's your favorite album so I can listen and then buy it?

Ditto. I still maintain that Embers at the 2 minute mark is the heaviest, crunchiest, delectable riff that exists.

That said, you really can't go wrong with any Bolt Thrower album. Even Mercenary and Honour - Valour - Pride are decent. I'd actually recommend just starting at Realm of Chaos and working your forward.

That was pretty good, until that part came on. Will never get used to blending generic post grunge clean vocals with death metal.
Felt the same. The song was pretty decent until that point. Felt cheesy.
Does it sometime just spring into your mind that Holy Wars, Hangar 18 and Tornado of Souls are part of the same album and your mind is consequently blown?
I"ve largely been lucky enough to not experience this, but when I do I'm super fucking pissed off.Old man rant incoming
But like WTF why does no one know how to mix concerts anymore? If it's so loud you can't even hear the singer and it blows out people's ears what's the point. Turn the volume down so we can at least hear the musicians and not static.

I long for the day in which I can go to a metal concert and not have to worry about my hearing being permanently damagedlol i was there with you, dude. lol. schism sounded like fuzz 85% of the song. lol
