Re: What are you listening to right now?
In a funk and indecisive, scrolling around winamp wildly...landed on Thank You Scientist. So that's what my day is now, just gonna spin this all day. I love these folks.
Re: What are you listening to right now?
Speaking of Thank You Scientist, it really sucks to hear the vocalist threw in the towel. He is very unique and fit that music like a glove. Don’t know if that means no more music from them or not. Guitarist is the genius behind the music so let’s hope they continue with some music, even an all instrumental would suit me. He is just an insanely amazing guitar player. Maybe Claus has some info?????

I don't enjoy instrumental music, so that would mean I'm out on anything they do going forward ...

Re: What are you listening to right now?
Oh that's a bummer. I'd grown to quite like him. Last time I saw them live I got the feeling he was kinda done with being a touring musician, though, and that's hard to fault.RickyRock wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 2:14 pmSpeaking of Thank You Scientist, it really sucks to hear the vocalist threw in the towel.

Eternity X - The Edge - Ya know some Cds don't age well, but I still love playing this as much now as I did when it first came out. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but to me it's a masterpiece. The weird part is, I don't care at ALL for their other CDs before this, which is weird.

Just played this on Tuesday myself, and it absolutely holds up every bit as well as it did back in the day. Magnificent album! I do enjoy the other albums, though.... "Primitive" as they are comparatively.Eternity X - The Edge - Ya know some Cds don't age well, but I still love playing this as much now as I did when it first came out.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
Agree with you both - "The Edge" is an amazing disc and it holds up perfectly. It is a prog metal masterpiece.Sir Exar Kun wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 7:45 amJust played this on Tuesday myself, and it absolutely holds up every bit as well as it did back in the day.

I enjoy their other discs, but not as much as "The Edge". Too bad we never got a proper recording and release of "From the Ashes" as the material there had so much potential as well.

Noor - Mother's Guilty Pleasure Part I
Released in December, 2023, it's a pretty interesting debut album with a strange front cover and a very attacking and powerful metal style in the early power/speed metal way, mixing elements of the 80s Iron Maiden, Queensryche's early heavy/power metal songs, Heir Apparent, early Fates Warning, and some Agent Steel/Liege Lord likes.
Atheist - Unquestionable Presence/Elements/Piece of Time - was preparing to attend their gig on the European tour, it's a truly great band and one of several to label as "being ahead of their time".
Dirty Looks - Cool from the Wire, 1988.
I was listening to a podcast with producer Max Norman. This album was praised a lot and I thought I should give it a listen. I have to admit that I literally never listen to AC/DC, but I liked hard rock delivered on this album and gave it a number of spins.
Eternity - The Edge, thanks for reminding about this album! There is a lot of heart and honesty in those prog metal albums of the late 90s.
As for 2024 releases, I am listening to Borknagar, Ihsahn, Job for a Cowboy, Vicinity, Whom Gods Destroy, Bruce Dickinson, but I am still waiting for contenders to my Top 10 of the year (time will tell if Caligula's Horse is one of them).

Saw that Fallujah and Persefone are going to be within striking distance, and on a Friday at that!, so now I've got Fallujah's Empyrean on.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
They are playing in Greensboro, which is 100 miles from here. It's a Sunday 7/6, but I might just make the drive. Considering I was Persefone's manager for 15 years it's messed up that I never got to see them live - wth!?!?

According to their bandcamp, the official release date was Feb 20, 2024: https://noorband.bandcamp.com/album/mot ... e-part-onegiedrius wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 3:31 pmNoor - Mother's Guilty Pleasure Part I

I am listening now, and you hit it right on the nail with those inspirations. There's some Lethal, Sacred Warrior, Titan Force, Hollow and even Witherfall in it as well. I can't believe I never heard of them before. This is great stuff. Purchased!!!! ($4US on bandcamp .. can't beat that price).
Those 3 albums were absolutely insane. Soooo great.
Never got into them. As you said, very AC/DC like (basic, simplistic, raw).giedrius wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 3:31 pmDirty Looks - Cool from the Wire, 1988.

Yup!
For me so far the best albums of the year are Caligula's Horse, Ihsahn, Vemod, Borknagar and my #1 hasn't been released yet so I'll wait talking about it just a little bit longer. The year is starting off with some great stuff in my opinion.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
ARTIFICIAL LANGUAGE - Distant Glow
As with both previous albums, this is killer djent-influenced next-gen prog metal. Very melodic, very technically proficient. Love it.
But, why - oh why - why is this just an EP instead of a full length? I won't put EPs on my year-end list, so this is going to be quickly forgotten by me ... such a shame, because it's phenomenal and would end up high on the list. Same issue as with the new Persefone. Ugh, I really dislike EPs.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
Yeah this is fantastic. I don't share your dogmatic distaste for EPs, but I would also have been perfectly happy waiting another year for a full length to happen.introclaus wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 1:45 pmARTIFICIAL LANGUAGE - Distant Glow

BLAZING ETERNITY - A Certain End of Everything
Second single from upcoming album. I must have listened to this song 30+ times in the last couple of days. Incredible. The Katatonia vibe is strong with this one. This album has AoTY-candidate written all over it for me.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
I've been listening to the new Erra, Cure, almost non-stop since yesterday. This album is FANTASTIC. Only one track kinda sticks out as an oddball, Past Life Persona, and even then it's not bad, it's just a bit different than the rest.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
Yeah I listened through it twice today.
First full album of theirs I’ve liked. Normally they are too “chaotic” for my taste, but there’s a huge focus on strong melodies this time around and I ended up pulling the trigger in this.
PS: I know why you don't like "Past Life Persona" - it sounds like Good Tiger, who you hate
Claus Jensen
Re: What are you listening to right now?
I don't hate Good Tiger, I hate Elliot Coleman's voice! I loved The Safety Fire, man. Past Life Persona is also still very good, just a curveball from the rest of the album.introclaus wrote: ↑Wed Apr 10, 2024 7:45 pmYeah I listened through it twice today.

I'm happy you've finally gotten into an album from them, though. I was hoping this one might do the trick.

I think it's just the crazy breakdowns, and as a drummer myself I'm just absolutely blown away by their drummer. He's so fucking absolutely amazing. He has many videos on his youtube channel where he cam is just on him and man, what an amazing beast! I just watch him sometimes with my jaw hanging open lol.introclaus wrote: ↑Thu Apr 18, 2024 2:29 pmI've gotten more and more into deathcore over the past year and a half, but still not too hooked on Slaughter to Prevail.

Re: What are you listening to right now?
All these new releases, and yet what am I listening to? All old stuff..... LOL.
Lillian Axe "Dark Red Shadows" - Modern era EP from one of my faves..... Only includes a handful of new tracks plus some re-records, but love it nonetheless. "47 Ways to Die" and "Under the Same Moon" (?) are both killer.
Symphony X s/t - Weren't they talking about re-recording this many years ago with Russell on vocals? Still would like to hear that..... Vocals here aren't bad by any means, but just are SO starkly different. This almost feels like more of a Mike Romeo solo album comparatively.
Yngwie Malmsteen "Attack!!" - One of the last solid Yngwie albums before he went completely self-indulgent and decided he didn't need a band. A few gems on here, the rest is pretty much typical Yngwie.
Kix "Blow My Fuse" - Baltimore hair metal; marginal fan at best, but enjoy a bit here and there. "Don't Close Your Eyes" was the big MTV hit, but I prefer "Cold Blood".....
Sonata Arctica "Broken" - CD single off the "Winterheart's Guild" album if I recall correctly. Last true power metal album before they went into their weird phase with "Unia"
Place Vendome "Close to the Sun" - Kiske and Denis Ward project; not as hook laden as PC69, not as powerful as Helloween, but still has a few standout tracks. Plus..... It's KISKE for f&*k's sake!
Crimson Glory s/t - This was hard as hell to track down back in the day, as I was "late" to the party on this one. SO worth it though!
Machine Men "Elegies" - Honestly don't recall how or why I picked this one up. Were they supposed to play ProgPower at some point? It's not bad stuff..... Engaging Queensryche-esque metal, but again.... Nothing individually REALLY standing out. Good, not great.

If I remember correctly they started out as a Bruce Dickinson (solo) cover band - hence the band name. Yes, there's some Qryche to it, but mostly their first few albums sounded like BD's "The Chemical Wedding" style.Sir Exar Kun wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2024 2:48 pmMachine Men "Elegies" - Honestly don't recall how or why I picked this one up.

I booked them for ProgPower Scandinavia back in 2007.
