    And he was actually one of the guys I was referencing when I mentioned how I could argue with folk here but still respect them. Not looking so good at the moment, though, lol.  

    I just can't imagine digging up someone's posts from two and a half years ago, on a subject such as covid, and speaking today as if everything is still how it was two and half years ago. Apart from it being really stupid, it's an incredibly embarrassing look. 

    Again, it's like they don't have a valid point to argue now, so they need to rewind two and a half years? :(

    I know I'm not doing myself any favours by replying, but when summoned, I appear. 

    I find that completely logical. 

    Hell my posts pre-covid to almost death from covid to back to normal to covid round 2..... a whirlwind of different thoughts and opinions.

    I was just skimming over thread titles and I thought Stryper's new song was called 'Transgender' and for a moment I thought how 2022. 

    Anyway, not too keen on the song. Very "standard." 

    As for Sweet's eye, holy shit, I had no idea that was going on. Hope he can get that sorted but a quick google seems to have the last updates at Jan/Feb this year. Does that means it's permanent now? Wow, I was unaware. Poor dude.  

    I agree. That song is pretty average.

    Reading back posts from years ago to score points in a present argument is a pretty beta move. It's all pretty pointless now. For a while it was like grabbing a box of popcorn and watching this unfold, but now it's gotten cringey. Time to move on methinks.

    Spot on

  5. Well I tried.... I put this on at work today and was totally willing to let the whole thing play through..... I barely made it.

    This album is terrible. Might be the worst shit I've heard this year along with Ugly Kid Joe. 

    I will say there are pieces and bits here and there that I did like and were a nod to the older days. There are just so few and far between. I won't either bother scoring it but if I had to, it's definitely below 60%.

    I'd be more worried about the 750,000 unvetted Afghan "refugees" that the dumbass Biden administration allowed to waltz right into our d@mn country - several hundred of which were on the terrorist watch list.You can't make this stuff up....the absolute freaking DISASTER this son of bitch has been....and we have 2 years left of this horror show.

    Love how they sneaked them into cities overnight on buses.

    However, if there was a new virus with no vaccine again and deaths starting stacking up, of course countries would lock down.

     

     

    And it's coming soon....

  8. TRIAL (Swe) – Feed The Fire (2022)

    SEPTEMBER 6, 2022

     

    TRIAL (Swe) - Feed The Fire [Limited Edition Digipak +2] - full
    various interweb sources

    Twin guitars, romping rhythms, towering vocals and distinctive melodies – classic ’80s melodic metal is alive and well in the hands of TRIAL (Swe). Returning five years since their last full album with new vocalist Arthur W. Andersson on board, the quintet is hungry, and it shows in the tracks that comprise new CD ”Feed The Fire’‘.

    Having added the country tag of (Swe) to their name in order to distinguish themselves from the many other bands who go under that name, this feels almost like a ‘new band’. Having a new band member can be nerve-wracking. However, on an album, it can be easy for it to sound like nothing has changed. On the other hand, this only works until the singer is replaced. Then the difference is noticeable.
    Well, Andersson is a real find, as the guy sounds exactly what this type of classy metal needs.

    Despite the slow, short introduction song, ‘Tria Prima’, this album goes full force. It is almost as if the first song was a calm before the storm. ‘Sulphery’ starts off with a riveting guitar solo before Andersson‘s voice comes in. He sounds fantastic, and his voice suits the music perfectly. This makes sense, as lead guitarist Alexander Ellström said that after hearing Andersson‘s voice he held the desire to write more up-tempo songs.

    If you grew up listening ’80s metal you’ll get a nostalgic feel listening tracks like ‘Thrice Great Path’, ‘Feed The Fire’ and ‘The Faustus Hood’

    The production quality is very good mixing vintage with modern; it makes the songs fit together nicely. Despite the fact that the majority of the songs are over five minutes long, most do not sound too long. The band feels natural, like they’re having plenty of fun on the album. The passion is clear, and it is certain the new vocalist is really good for this genre.

    This is an album of high-quality trad metal that demands replays if you’re fan of the genre.

    Highly Recommended
