New Sabaton album out. I didn't even know they had semi split up until today. Huh. Hope the new guys are decent.
Also new Kreator out. Not that I really care about that.

That was truly horrendous. I'm not sure it even qualifies as metal anymore. Why Pitchfork liked it, let alone called it Best New Track, is beyond me, although I have disagreed with it quite a bit in the past, so I shouldn't be too surprised.

So. Carolux Rex is actually quite good. Who would have thought. It's as if Sabaton releases something good every other album.
Still the same hilarious vocals as ever.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
I'm inclined to say that if Pitchfork generally likes it, it isn't metal. But yeah, that song is pretty bad.
-
Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
I seem to recall Pitchfork liking a couple of Wolves in the Throne Room albums. Although that might be the exception that proves the rule.

That's true. I guess that would be the exception to the rule. They gave a short synopsis of the other Baroness albums as well.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
Nope. Liturgy is playing at the Pitchfork music festival. :smallwink: And they freaking reviewed a Revenge album. wut.jpg

Nope. At least in terms of sludge metal, pitchfork's got some solid picks, and since I'm not a black metal fan I can't comment on their taste in that, I can certainly observe that they review plenty of it and aren't any harder on it than on any other genre.
Also, can I make a brief comparison? Why is it that when Hunter Hunt Hendrix says stupid, pretentious crap, Liturgy sucks, but Shining gets a free pass despite all of the drivel they spew? Are you really gonna tell me HHH is worse than Shining? :smalltongue:

It didn't leave me with any significant impressions. I don't really care, there's nothing wrong with Baroness playing a different genre of music, and there's nothing necessarily wrong with a band that doesn't play particularly "metal" music. In any case, I'll still have First, Second, the Red Album, and the Blue Record. I'm not convinced that the album with be terrible, anyways. Both of their full-lengths have had weak moments, so it's not really fair to judge them on the quality of a single song. Why should their next album be any different?

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
I don't nessessarily think Shining gets a free pass. I think people generally overlook them.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
its just sinking in that last night i had a drink with the guitarist of ocean
the guy who opened up for iron frikkin maiden and AC/DC
i feel like i've met a famous figure!

So, popping on this thread for the first time. Hi all \m/
Is Manowar taboo here? If not, anyone listened to the new album? I found some songs on youtube and it was... terribad. At least in my opinion. Gods of War was salvageable, but this... just no.

Aww, that's disappointing.
My favourite thing about Manowar is how I can enjoy them ironically and un-ironically simultaneously.

You mean the Battle Hymns remake? Man, why did they have to go do that. The original is by far my favourite album of theirs, and then they had to go mess with it. Sigh.
But nah, Manowar's okay. I'll listen to them occasionally when I need a testosterone injection, but not all the time.
Edit: I just found out that Manowar released a new album like, yesterday. I'll check it out, maybe.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
Shining are great. V: Halmsted (or however it's spelled) is one of my favorite BM albums. I think Liturgy are good too, and that their debut > their second album.
dundundun liking Liturgy and Shining.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In

Kvarforth gets a pass because he's a massive troll and everyone knows it.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
1349 and Marduk played in my town a couple days ago. Both bands were awesome live. Weapon (A Canadian death metal band) were also there and were quite good. Even the local band opener (Black f***ing cancer) were good. Entire concert was just awesome.

You know, I think I woulda gone with you to that, but I'm so used to not being able to afford shows that it didn't even occur to me. :smallsigh:
