Quality Comeback Albums

[StoutAndAle]

The Neurosis one, as mentioned, is a stormer. As is Carcass' "Surgical Steel".

Sleep - "The Sciences"
Dinosaur Jr. - "Beyond"
St. Vitus - "Lillie F65"
Alice In Chains - "Black Gives Way To Blue"

Non-Metal;

Suede - "Bloodsports"
Pulp - "More"
Wire - "Send"

[Trev]

Death Angel - The Art of Dying
Great comeback and everything since has been consistently as good

Fear Factory - Mechanize
I think from the non-Dino albums, Archetype is criminally underrated, and Transgression has a good album buried in there if they weren't rushed to release it, but Mechanize is definitely a throwback to earlier stuff. Shame it all imploded again soon after

[Pentagrimes]

Wire - "Send"

Amazing album. "You Can't Leave Now" is the song Faith No More spent all of "Album of the Year" trying to write. Menacing.

The Naked Whipper album last year not bad for someone who was gone and probably had no access to musical equipment for nearly 3 decades.
Archgoat - The Light-Devouring Darkness
Warloghe - Three Angled Void
Soundgarden - King Animal
Akhlys - The Dreaming I
Angelcorpse - Of Lucifer and Lightning (one of the must underrated DM albums of all time)
Immortal - Northern Chaos Gods (Best thing they released since At the heart of winter)
Dissection - Reinkaos

[Mower Liberation Front]

Death Angel - The Art of Dying

Yep.

Sanctuary - The Year the Sun Died
Toxik - Dis Morta
Heathen - The Evolution of Chaos

Was going to post about Mechanize as I picked up a CD of it last weekend and was thinking the same when I had it on yesterday. It's very scaldy how the went after that one

Only listened to it this week. After Demanufacture it's my next most listened.

Jaysus, King Animal definitely doesn't deserve a mention, remarkably dull album given what they were capable of. "Bones of Birds" is the only thing on there that's really up to standard.

Agree with this word for word (and even at that Bones of Birds feels like a weaker Down On the Upside track).

Their worst album by a mile, to the point where it felt like all it really did was tanrnish their discography.

A lot of filler on the COW albums I would argue, but I dare say Mechanize and the three albums that followed are all great. I think if any of them had been released right after Obsolete, Fear Factory would be a much bigger band now.

[Carnage]

Archetype is their best post-Demanufacture for me, I love the (relative) rawness and more organic edge to it in comparison with their usual ultra-processed sound.

King Animal was a non-event, an utter snoozefest. I don't think I even finished it, nothing to hold the attention there at all.

[mickO)))]

King Animal is a good album for band that hadn't released anything in 16 years and had been broken up for a lot of that time.

As for it being the worst album I think some people are getting it mixed up with Ultramega OK.

The main complaint people seem to have with it is the production which sounds a lot like Heretic.

[Carnage]

Ultramega OK is grand, I picked up the reissue a couple of years ago.
