Metal

[mn dave]

Satanism is mostly about being anti-religion and into yourself as far as I can tell. Nothing to do with mythology unless you're a psychopath.

[mn dave]

Sure. And why not?

Exactly. "Why not?" shall be the whole of the music appreciation law.

[Karl Henning]

That likes me well.

For anyone interested in the new stuff that came out this year:

http://www.popmatters.com/feature/176995-the-best-metal-of-2013/P3/


Wouldn't expect such an entertaining list from a site called "popmatters," but I found a few that were quite different and interesting (and enjoyable). Gorguts came out at #5 (how can you beat 1950's Dalai Lama/Tibetan-themed death metal? lol), Carcass at #3, In Solitude at #1...


Also, not exactly metal, but a really good new prog rock band that my friend sent me the link to:

Yep, In Solitude #1.

Why do metal bands always write their names in a crown-of-thorns manner, many times making it completely unintelligible?

No idea.

Because if you don't already know their name then you ain't KVLT!!

How ironic a name for the album, Jason Newsted must have thought.

Very cool, thanks!

So, what did you think?

So, what did you think?

I didn't listen to all of it (headed over to a friend's place), but it definitely seemed to be better than the original mix.
