I think Dave has a bit more of a physical clock counting down though, seems to be seriously struggling to play live from any videos I've seen in the past few years.

Well he's finally got his number 1 album on the US charts apparently.

I think it's the liner notes for the Countdown reissue, that it became his obsession after the Black Album to get one and basically shaped everything they did after that.

The album is shite but fair play to him I suppose.

Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters

I remember this album coming out a few years ago and getting rave reviews, it is fantastic have to say, for fans of Tori Amos, PJ Harvey, Kate Bush etc.

I enjoyed One Battle..., I'd actually agree with the comparison with Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, enjoyable spectacles but probably wouldn't sit through either again.

Has anyone seen Sentimental Value yet? Missed it in cinema, big fan of Joachim Trier with The Worst Person in the World one of the best films of the past few years imo.

Classic band but they've always rated lower than both Metallica and Slayer to me due to their inconsistency even in their 'classic" period.

First three albums all have dodgy cover songs for example, KIMB and SFSGSW both have shitty production, not exactly Hell Awaits or Ride the Lightning, are they?

In saying that, while Metallica were the better thrash band, I do believe Megadeth made the better transition to 'melodic' HM with Countdown/Youthanasia.

Absolutely love the last album by these and hadn't seen this. Remembered last night that they were due to play here but turns out it was back in October  Swing and a miss.

I was at the first night, they were class.

I've been working on a traditional HM project the past year or so which has been creatively very exciting, was/am still hoping for it to become a proper band but that is proving a bit more difficult than expected.

Was hoping to have a demo out and be gigging by this summer but that would be ambitious, but still work goes on  .

Didn't know him personally but I believe the victim drank in Fibbers, remember seeing some appeals about it, very nice lad by all accounts.

The scumbag, with 24 priors, can randomly murder an innocent person, hide for six months, smile and wink while receiving his sentence, get 6 years and probably only serve half of it.

It's an absolute joke.

Album is streaming on the label website, just listened to the Ride the Lightning cover, it's not good.

Carcass - Necroticism

There's a riff in Corporal Jigsore Quandary that every time I hear it makes me think of Rio by Duran Duran.

This popped up on YouTube, comedy gold.

Radiohead - OK Computer
Type o - October Rust
Bruce Dickinson - The Chemical Wedding

They seem to be reaching a new level of popularity the last few years which is surprising, they're a band I don't think quite hit their full potential on record, good live to be fair.

Qrixkuor - The Womb of the World

Mercful Fate - In the Shadows

Yeah they've been releasing tracks every now and again last couple of years, they're just CD leftovers with parts re-recorded by Slash and Duff.

I actually don't mind Chinese Democracy but none of the leftovers have been any use.
