Quote from: The Great Cull on July 14, 2026, 10:40:04 PMMetal Hammer gave Angel Dust a 3/5 review!  :o

It's crazy looking back over these seeing so many classic albums being reviewed. The sheer volume of good quality releases just doesn't happen anymore.

It's also crazy seeing many albums that are seen as classics nowadays being slated by the group of smart arse cunts that worked for Metal Hammer and Kerrang back in the day.


There was a changing of the guard not too long after as a lot of the 80s Kerrang team fucked off to Raw and you had Morat, Jason Arnopp, Mike Gitter etc starting to get the reviews who were a little bit more in touch with the newer and heavier stuff.

It was inevitable for them as a business. They've had merch in Asos, Pennies etc.
Yeah, I got a banger of a Live After Death T shirt in H&M for 12 quid (there's a less good Live After Death one in Penney's too). Picking that up as gig merch would have been €50 or more.

Better quality than official merch too. Think that's where my missus got my Killers one 😂

I used to tape every show on one tape, then copy the stuff I liked onto another one.

Was raging when my oul buck binned the multiple shoeboxes of tapes when the house was getting renovated.

Quote from: blessed1 on July 09, 2026, 09:55:21 PMKill List is his best film imo. Could never get into anything he did after that. Down Terrace is good too.

Kill List is perfect. Just a sense of menace from the get go.

Wheatley's great, he doesn't stick to the same thing so he can be hit or miss. Plus his YouTube playlists of 80s/90s BBC docs are deadly.

Another one that John Bush would have been a better vocalist for.

But hooray for Rick Baker turning up in the video!

Always tend to put the amp up to the last when this is on the turntable/tv/headphone.

Definitely enjoyed Nosferatu even more the second time once I got the 4k disc. Think the chewing scenery works for Johnson as there's a bit of classic Hammer Horror to the movie.

Quote from: Pentagrimes on July 02, 2026, 08:17:49 PMThe fact the guy who made the "Lords Of Chaos"  movie is now making the GG ALlin biopic is possibly the greatest one two punch in all of musical cinema history


Get ready for the "GG Allin was problematic" Tik toks and terrible podcast takes.

Merle will be delighted with all the merch he's gonna sell.

That absolutely inhuman scream Scott Kelly does on Enclosure in Flame.
