Re: LTE 'Paraigm Shift' with vocals...

Singer might be a bit gruff for my taste, but it is definitely well done and cool to hear with vocals.

Re: W.A.S.P.?

****Just for the record --- Twisted Sister - a joke. Lizzy Borden - bottom tier of bands trying to do something. Icon - never got into them. Omen - never heard a note. You shocked with your top cd of 2020. Now your surprising me the opposite way with these comments. Twisted Sister was far from a jo...

Re: Top 100 of 2020

Really enjoyed some of the thrash ones on your list. Annihilator and Testament would've been in my top 20. Good year for that genre. Did you check out the 2020 Onslaught or Heathen releases?

Re: Oracle Sun Machine Man

I remember their first one. It kinda had a singer with pipes like the Veni Domine vocalist. Sounds like a different guy now. Would've bought this in the old days when I bought everything possible. Now I'd have to listen to it a bunch first to see if it's necessary.

Lol. I'd say they have a few. When I was on a big Kamelot kick I actually found 15 bonus tracks from their discography I had never heard. I thought almost all of them were amazing too! Found it funny one was even a vinyl only track.

I guess there is a new cd which just came out from this band on 11/25.

Enjoyed both of the previous releases. They remind me of Angra. Must be the Brazil thing.

Pronoia - Mimesis, not much for instrumentals, but this one blew me away. Proggy and heavy! 3. Jon Oliva - Global Warning, nice mix of heavier and...
