  1. Not shit, quite good actually. I remember growing up, it was RARE that you'd hear someone trashing groups like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, U2, The Police, etc.... because, well... it made you seem foolish. If you don't like a band, fine, but saying they suck, or are shit when they've sold millions of albums and sold out concert tours world wide makes you sound like a complete asshat. Enter the late 90s and the explosion of the internet, and every moron who thought it made them cool to trash bands like Nickelback, Metallica, etc came out of the woodwork, and it's just gotten worse since. This is literally what I see in my mind every time I read someone trashing a highly successful band...
  2. Always interesting to see lists like these...usually some inclusions/exclusions that make you shake your head, but hey, it's their list, not mine. Anyway, I own the following: Alanis Morissette – Jagged Little Pill Slayer – Reign in Blood Pearl Jam – Ten Billy Joel – The Stranger Guns N’ Roses – Appetite for Destruction AC/DC – Back in Black Metallica – Master of Puppets Black Sabbath – Paranoid Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin IV The Beatles – Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Fleetwood Mac – Rumours Prince & The Revolution – Purple Rain Classics one and all
  3. New music from Mammoth WVH Talk & Walk
  4. Tough crowd. I like it… nice and aggressive.
  5. Hard to argue with most of his list, but one he missed is one of my favorite one hit wonders ever…
  6. Just ordered the EP: https://officialwingsofsteel.bandcamp.com/album/wings-of-steel It’s a CD-r, but for $8 I figure wtf? 🤷‍♂️ Good stuff
  7. The biggest problem with the ratings is people thinking their opinion is the "right" one, and when they see a disc that they don't care for highly rated, they'll decide that giving it a "1" is fair, because it's too highly rated, and it's average needs to be brought down. Same can be said in reverse as well, of course, that if they see something they feel is low, they'll give it an undeserved 100 trying to raise it's average to where they think it should be. Honestly, a thumbs up or thumbs down system might be more accurate in the end.

  9. I've given this one 3 full listens, and my initial thought is that I like 2020's "Ordinary Man" better, BUT, this one has some damn good stuff on it as well. The title track, Immortal, Parasite, One of Those Days, and Degradation Rules are my faves so far. Here's mister Snyder's take on Patient Number 9:
  10. New video "WWIII" The time has arrived for TESTAMENT to unleash new thunder to the masses and reveal their thirteenth studio album: Titans Of Creation. Just as the elements of this planet thrive within all living creatures, each musician in TESTAMENT represents a necessary component of this latest musical endeavour. Still filled with a massive and unstoppable energy since their last release, TESTAMENT has taken their style to the next level and present an album that is loyal to the roots of traditional thrash metal while still bringing alluring, brilliant, and progressive ingredients to the table. Bass is showcased, new vocals are introduced, and as expected, the guitarwork of Peterson and Skolnick is greatly complex and mesmerizing.In 2020 the days of writing an album all together in one room are far gone, but to be able to take advantage of technology allows for TESTAMENT to go about a very similar writing process to what they always have. Basic songs are molded, structures are added by everyone in the group, instrumentals are highlighted, and finally the lyrics and vocals are created to finalize the sonic story. Facetime and human on human contact still remain crucial elements to TESTAMENT’s song writing process and at some point throughout, every member physically interacts and writes with one another. In between writing this album, the band toured relentlessly which allowed for less stress, more time in between, and greater inspiration for this album cycle. There was also plenty of anxiety-free and level-headed time for pre-production and the initial recording process with Juan Urteaga of Trident Studios. Andy Sneap was then able to tweak, mix, and master this album to his usual perfection. 01. Chidren Of The Next Level . 02. WWIII 03. Dream Deceiver 04. Night Of The Witch 05. City Of Angels 06. Ishtar’s Gate 07. Symptoms 08. False Prophet 09. The Healers 10. Code Of Hammurabi 11. Curse Of Osiris 12. Catacombs

  12. Claire Vezina - "Coeur Sauvage" which translates to "Wild Heart" in English Yeah, I know it not being in English will kill any possible appeal for most, but even though I don't know wtf she's saying, I still think it's a very nice song. Check out some of the names who helped out on her 1993 debut... 1. Tu me hantes 2. Colin-Maillard 3. Coeur Sauvage 4. Douce Folie 5. Dégivre 6. Sors de ma vie 7. Encore un blues 8. Sortez-moi d’là ! 9. Boogie Déprime 10.

  13. He’s also posting them one at a time instead of altogether, thus driving up his post total, so it’s a win-win for him! 😉😂
