What I've Been Listening To: July/August

This is very late, sorry y'all. But I actually went on a little vacation and haven't had much time to write. I promise the next one will be up sooner.

Agalloch! One of these days, I will see these guys live and my life will be changed. We need Mass Destruction Fest to return to the ATL...

The Crown! These guys are really consistent in terms of Swedish melodeath, even though they often get left out of the conversation. Unfair, as they deserve.

Dead Can Dance! Never a bad time for these guys, I love most of their material.

What I've Been Listening To- April/May

Cradle of Filth! Not really my band, but their new album won me over and it caused me to go back to some of their other stuff and... chat, they're not bad, Who knew?

Helmet! Always in the mood for 90s rock, these guys did it better than many. I saw them open for Clutch a couple of years ago and it was a good time.

Pelican! I love all of their stuff, but this new album is incredible. Worth the wait, hope to see them at some point.

What I've Been Listening To- April/May

What I've Been Listening To- January/February

I know, we're well into March now, but life sucks sometimes and I've only just now found the drive to make this.

Savatage! Some good traditional metal, nothing wrong with that. See also: Dio and of course Maiden

Tomb Mold! Still spinning The Enduring Spirit somewhat regularly, hope to see them alive again.

What I've Been Listening To- December/January

Well, America's dying and I have no motivation at all. Still, music keeps me going, so here's a few highlights.

Godflesh! Still as good as industrial metal gets.

Mother of Graves! One of my favorite discoveries from last year, really good death/doom.

The Mountain Goats! "I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me" And I'm trying, John. They've been one of my favorite non-metal bands for years and while I've fallen out of their more recent works, I do like their newest album on top of the classics I still go back to. Should do a deep dive soon.

What I've Been Listening To- October/November

Hey all sorry, I made a post last month, but accidentally posted it on my other blog and didn't feel like copy/pasting it back here so it's lost. Ah well. Light month this time, too. I've been very busy at work.

Devil Master! Good band, really looking forward to LP #3.

What I've Been Listening To- August/September

Hey all, sorry I'm a little late. I've been to a couple of shows this month, but what I've really been spinning are some previous releases, but at least not so old.

Jesus Piece! An easy highlight from last year, some of the best hardcore out there. And they put on a damn good show!

What I've Been Listening To- June/July

Okay, back at it again, sorry y'all.

200 Stab Wounds! Last year was really good for death metal, and 2024 is already starting to rival it. Exhibit A! I saw them last year and started getting the hype a little better, but this totally got me on the 200SW bandwagon. Ready for round two with Nails in September!

Black Sabbath! I've been seeing people listen to the Tony Martin albums recently, with their recent box set, but instead I keep going back to the Dio stuff. Still peak, and I'll forever be sad that I didn't get to see him before he passed.

L7! I genuinely think that this is some of the best rock music ever made, grunge or not. Still stoked that I got to see them play Bricks Are Heavy in full back in 2022.
