Agreed, the last 2 albums took some getting used to, but, now? FAOD is a constant for bike rides. It just takes a little while.Wish I coulda landed the Fenriz Mix CD "Fenriz Presents Punk Rock and classic Heavy Metal" looks like it was a brilliant mix.

Anyone into this? 1 man ambient black metal project. I've listened twice and I have no idea what to think. Makes Portal seem accessible. Goddamn I love the cover artwork though.

My old Godflesh rip-off band Dead World was even included. It makes my brain hurt to think something I did as a teenager is among so many other amazing bands all these years later.Happy 25th Relapse!

Tungsteno! They sing in Spanish. I don't understand Spanish, but then I also can't decipher what the actual lyrics are when listening to most metal sung in English anyway.

Nothing in music is ever going to top the fact that there was, long ago, a Corrupted/Grief split.phpBB [media]phpBB [media]

Something as ugly and nihilistic as it gets.I kinda got out of this world a few years ago, but I'd recommend checking out:- Monarch- Khanate- Buried at Sea... if you haven't already. None of it's as good as Corrupted, but c'mon.Switchblade isn't really doomy, but they are very good. Their 2004 s/t on Deathwish is my favorite.= Justin
