Yesterday I received my copy of Winter's 'Into Darkness' and 'Eternal Frost' as recently reissued by Svart. It's one I've never owned but have enjoyed listening to online from time to time. I am wallowing in its filth this morning with a nice cup of tea. Visually it's 100% crust but the music is total Celtic Frost worship slowed to fuck. I love the flange effect on the guitar.  Defo robbing that!

Moss- 'Sub Templum'.

I was an obsessive Moss fan when this album came out and it was a bit of a flop at the time for me. 'Cthonic Rites' took the most simple, basic ingredients and turned them into this larger than life horror show. That album was as slow and noisy as you could take doom without it becoming out and out drone. 'Sub Templum', bar a couple of new ideas, seemed to linger in the shadow of the debut. I haven't listened to it in God knows how long so let's see if it captivates me more with a bit of time and distance.

Cold Lake demos, much heavier than the album.

ZZ Top Tres Hombres, perfect album for the weather

Agorophobic nosebleed - agorapocalypse.

Slow burner but heavy as fuck.

Jaysus that's a bold statement. Fuck it I'll throw it on and see. Will report back after

Put it on last night and was very surprised by it. I wouldn't have thought they'd ever have had anything like that going on. Every tune was good and every tune surprised me in the direction it took. Really impressed after 1 listen and I must give it another go when I'm not locked

'Stormcrowfleet' and a few yummy Jinnis for the day that's in it.

Fair play. The troubles Richie, who was the lyric writer, was going through add a nasty authenticity to it all. It's relentlessly bleak and the music matches the mood perfectly. It's genuinely an all-time favourite of mine. Few bands have ever been so bold.

Had it on again going for a spin last night and it's holding up well I must say. It reminds me of some stuff that came before and after, too. Little bit of KJ style post punk in there, some early Foo Fighters type bits, reminds me of QOTSA here and there too. Good shout and as an added bonus my wife didn't give out shit about it from the passenger seat.

It's a great album. Crazy how it all played outbin the media the disappearance at the time. Harrowing stuff.

[astfgyl]

I remember reading of it in Kerrang and the likes at the time, but I had no interest in it then. I didn't know even one person who listened to them at the time. Just googled it there to see if he was ever found and I see there is a theory he staged his disappearance reported in an NME article.

[Juggz]

I think a book came out last year which worked on that theory. I'm not so sure, personally, I remember it at the time and he was not in a good state and I'm not so sure he would have been in a position to plan something getting out of the UK unseen without his passport. Regardless, the lyrics in that album are also worth reading, it gives you an idea of where his head was. Songs like 4st 7lb are really fucking tough going and it's testament to the talent of Bradfield that he was able to write music and melodies which both suited the mood and also were listenable and memorable. Again, fucking great album.

On topic, I just nipped down to the shops while listening to The Holy Bible
