As discussed on the rolling metal thread.It's the same kinda thing as a book club but with Metal records instead obviously. Mordy, for some reason, wanted me to do it, but there should be no-one in charge. However I am happy to start things off with 3 albums (no more than 1 album per sub-genre I suppose is fair?)Links to illegal d/ls should not be posted here, but if you dont own them then do as you need to. Spotify links will be provided if they are available for those who have it (for north american ilx0rs, i believe there's a way round it which someone will provide info when asked)So how aboutAlbum #1: Stoner Rock/MetalKyuss - Blues For The Red Sun (1992)Album #2:: Death Metal Entombed - Wolverine Blues (1993)Album #3: Sludge proggy metal?Mastodon - Remission (2002)(not on Spotify)And I guess we all meet here next week and discuss it?Any form of rules or whatever can be discussed here.Have fun, fiends! Had never heard this Entombed album, although I'm familiar with them from later stuff. Never liked their singer at all, and never liked their music enough to be too sad about not liking their singer. Rarely like the whole strained-macho-yelling school of Death Metal vocals, although certainly there's nothing inherently worse about it than other extreme styles I do like.
Kyuss’ Welcome to Sky Valley was the eye opening album that introduced me to stoner rock, and as such, will always hold a special place in my heart, although many favour its predecessor, Blues for the Red Sun.The album simultaneously demonstrates both of the aspects of stoner rock that I love, with oppressively crushing, fuzzy, riffs like opener Gardenia’s ferocious introduction, featuring.
I like the faster bits of the music more than the lurching, grinding bits; perhaps this is the 'blues' thing striking again. I'm perfectly willing to believe that this is an examplar of Death Metal, and I don't dislike the subgenre on principle, but I think it's one of the lower-yield subgenres of Metal for me, personally. Btw, I'm not saying I dislike it. It's a lot of fun to listen to and has some great moments (I wanna listen to it a couple more times at least). It just doesn't scream metal at me - at least not any more than like Queens of the Stone Age, Velvet Revolver, etc. (lol Velvet Revolver, I know.) The Mastodon so far is really interesting. I'm used to their more recent material.
This is a lot less groovier and a lot more - wild? Esp on a song like 'Workhouse' where is sounds like the band is lit playing themselves to death. It's totally wild (which I love). Until i got to listen more closely to that black bombain record, i didn't realize how insane the bass parts were on the one song. For like five minutes there's just this incessant thumping, i couldn't quite tell sometimes if it was the bass or the kick drum or both. By the end i felt a little sick, which is awesome.the dawnbringer record seems quite good—especially the riffs, the song structures, and the mixture of nwobhm and black metal sounds (especially the playing that's usually there in black metal but obscured by the sound)—but the vocal performance is kind of disappointing, flat.

I can see how it might make sense to people with some different tastes, though. Also, this is just me, but i really dislike it when metal bands fall back on acoustic intro/outro/interludes. Whatever the effect that seems intended, it usually comes off as completely unimaginative and uninspired.
Although the tuneless bit on the last song was actually effective, for once. Well, I would have told you I found about them on Rolling Metal 2008, but Google says that the person who mentioned them on Rolling Metal 2008 was me, so apparently it was somewhere else. But what I do in situations like this, where I happen across something I didn't know about that seems like it could be a vein of greatness, is search for blogs that review them or post their albums, subscribe to a bunch of them, and then weed them back out again if they turn out to mostly produce goregrind or deathcore or something else I don't need more of.

Blackened Doom of the highest quality.Murmuure - MurmuureDamn if this isn't becoming my album of the year. Avant-Black, like if Zombi put a BM production on everything.Titan - Sweet DreamsPrevious releases have been Space/Kraut behemoths with heavy psych overtones, but the move to Relapse adds Steve Moore which pads ut the sound in maybe the ways you'd expect.

Wretch is the first full-length album by American rock band Kyuss, released in September 1991 on Dali Records. The tracks 'Black Widow' and 'Deadly Kiss' are taken from the band's debut EP, Sons of Kyuss (1990), recorded with original bassist Chris Cockrell, while the rest of the album was recorded with his replacement Nick Oliveri.[3][4] The Sons of Kyuss songs 'Love Has Passed Me By', 'Katzenjammer', and 'Isolation Desolation' were re-recorded for Wretch, the latter's title shortened to 'Isolation'.
