Yeah I don't think you could go wrong there.
Hey Rolling Metal, how come nobody ever told me about the French band P.H.O.B.O.S. before? Sounds like Jeff Walker fronting an especially pissed off Godflesh circa Slavestate (crunchier percussion, light dub touches, less painfully dissonant than Streetcleaner - I'm thinking like "Perfect Skin" and "Someone Somewhere Scorned"). Sounding pretty good on a quiet night after a long, shitty day.

In addition to the upcoming studio album, Hedvig Mollestad Trio is putting out a double live album, which appears to be a) vinyl-only (though a CD version will be tucked inside; it just won't be sold separately) and b) entirely composed of epic jams.
Side C is on Soundcloud.

gojira makes you hate metal or something else? I dont get why gojira get so much flak
― Cosmic Slop, Friday, 20 May 2016 14:23 (eight years ago) link
i don't really have an opinion on gojira. that one line killed my ability to hear the song anymore, and given the chocolate hair face picture, i probably shouldn't have tried in the first place.
lately it has seemed very clear to me upon waking that i hate many things

What do you think of the Schammasch?
Also have you heard the Wrong album? That's right up your alley. I posted about it on FB (that place you never seem to ever be active on)
― Cosmic Slop, Friday, 20 May 2016 14:36 (eight years ago) link
facebook scares me. i actually think about it sometimes and then get so worried i have to count to certain numbers a lot. mostly because fuck what if they hate me now? i haven't even looked under there in months.
i only listened to a little of the schammasch track. wasn't feeling it, but i'm getting increasingly intolerant of shit without a strong core of thrash, punk, doom &/or classic hard rock. i.e. i'm old.
wrong is badass. plus i mike to pretend they are named after the nomeansno album. only some of their face looks right tho.

I like the new Gojira song, though it doesn't seem to be breaking any new ground for them. Their lyrics have always been kind of painfully earnest, lots of stuff about saving the environment, etc. The line doesn't sound so bad in the context of the song- but yeah, they'll never win points for subtlety.

Good call on the Wrong. Kinda reminds me of the KEN Mode album I liked from last year, another exercise in '90s sludge revivalism.

hey, i just realized blood ceremony have a new album out. haven't listened to the whole thing yet, but it sounds awesome so far, if not quite of eldritch dark quality. flutes, songs, cool lyrics. fun to pretend she's saying "i am the the devil's weirdo!" on the first track.

Wonder how much they'll charge for a farewell tour.Their last US tour dates had tickets eclipsing $100 a pop if memory serves.

I think the Starland Ballroom tickets were $75, but I couldn't get there, being a non-driver. If they play a NYC venue, I expect it to be over $100. I better start putting money aside.

hey metal dilettante here
digging Blood Ceremony, though I guess I don't know how metal they are...more hard rock? Dig the flutes...sometimes it's almost just psych-pop not even heavy
it's funny the entry on the drums on this one is SOOOOO Ringo Starr/Day in the Life
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Le09s6FeTuI
anyway really good songs, singing, nice variety a heck of a rock band IMO
― rockpalast '82 (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 27 May 2016 18:35 (eight years ago) link
glad you dug it! one of my 2016 favorites, and 2013's the eldritch dark is even better. hard rock v metal distinction is contentious & impossibly vague besides. i guess blood ceremony are metal (according to metallum, et al) in that they initially borrowed sufficient from sabbath, pentagram & deep purple to pass muster. these days, those influences aren't quite so dominant.
a favorite:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRJwTS_2M5M
― like $500 billion in stuffed fart sales and I have an idea (contenderizer), Friday, 27 May 2016 18:55 (eight years ago) link
cool yeah good recommendation, i should say how "metal" something is means very little to me, good band overall....maybe the new one even has a bit of pentangle-meets-cream type vibe...which i dig...or early purple i guess...heavy stuff is great too
