Now Playing

[Circlepit]

I bought the Soulfy debut album, I was so enamoured with the whole Bern de bung de Bern sound.
What a cunt.
Throwdown used to do a balls out version of Roots.

I wish somewhere like Cork Builders Providers would do an ad campaign for slates with a load of fellas shouting Roofs, Bloody Roofs.

  Or Sunderland could use it as a goalkeeper chant

I was living in a flat with nine(!) other people when it came out, the RTE chart show would play the vidjo every week and, because I liked metal and lived in battered old para boots at the time*, I was known as Booots Bloody Booots. As fun as it sounds.


*but mainly because they were all so permanently stoned out of their minds that 'Mac' was too hard to remember.

I was done with Sepultura when Roots came out.Chaos AD was a time and place nostalgia thing, haven't played it in over 20 years id say!.I was never going to touch Soulfly, at that point I was a bit done with metal! well mainstream metal tbh!.

Lot of Spoon Bloody Spoon happening with nine people under one roof!

  All but one were lads (but she was amazing), so that woukd have been uncomfortable at best. It was a glorified tenement, 6 beds a couch, 2 armchairs were taken up and I had the floor for the first month I was there. Sounds grim but it sorted my back and I was beside a storage heater, I've lived in worse spots.

Thorns - Thorns

Dont think I'll ever tire of this. The vocals dont do much for me, but the guitars...its just riff after riff!

Whole thing is savage.  I must be on here every time it gets mentioned saying how great it is 

[Goosebumples]

I've probably harped on about it a few times too, in fairness. I think its the album that sparked my fixation on music with weird dissonant chords many moons ago. Guitar sound is ice cold too.

Blood Incantation: Absolute Elsewhere

The more I listen to this album, the better it gets. Best album of the last 10 years for me.

[Eoin McLove]

I wonder what is happening with the new Thorns album. It is either just around the corner or it doesn't even exist and is a big hoax designed to piss me off 

Listened to a few bits this evening...

Kreuz- a new German doom death band. Pretty good.

Isvind- whatever the one is that is getting reissued on Kyrck in July. Sounds like my kind of BM- ugly, raw and epic.

Neurosis- a couple of the new tunes. So good. Can't wait for the CD to land.
