Heavy Metal

Are SWANS any good? Starting recommendation on youtube? They have a new LP out, might blind purchase it this weekend, sounds interesting...

[Edit: talking about Impetuous Ritual]

They have been around a while but this is the first I have heard of them. They share some members with Portal and some similar vibes, but don't sound too much the same. If you like your death metal weird you like them. (I do x 2)

^^ Yes they are. Their 1986 live album Public Castration is a Good Idea is amazing when you're in the right mood.

Of their recent efforts I really like 'my father will guide me up a rope to the sky' from 2010.

I've heard two songs off their new album; one is good, one is not.

Actually, I hope we're talking about the same band, as they're not metal!

So The Oath's debut LP comes out a few weeks ago and today they announce they've split?

Tsk..

^booo! They were meant to play Hell Over Hammaburg in March but pulled out, which was a shame. Mantar stepped in and didn't disappoint though!

One of those morning commutes where absolutely nothing but Hang The Bastard will do.

Public Castration Is a Good Idea is still heavier than any metal album I've ever heard though!

I've got a spare for Clutch tonight.. Any interest?

Yes - but interest vs. ability to go are two different things....

Yea I got an email announcing this.

I really thought she was joking for a minute.

I missed the first to bands by merit of not realising the show was Monday till about 6PM. Doomriders were incredible as ever.
