Kansas - Carry On Wayward Son
The Dirt? I did mate. Fairly fucked up, no more than Marilyn Manson’s book. A diary of excess and debauchery.
Kansas? Great tune, but they’d probably hate to see themselves classed as ‘metal’.
I bought a Microdisney 12" yesterday. An insanely good band.
Fatima Mansions are next to get stuck into.
Fuuuuuuck
Caught these guys in Dublin about ten years ago. Some friends were supporting. Thought they were only alright. Seemed to be pitched as a halfway house between Mogwai and ISIS (the band)
That’s pretty much where they’re pitched. Been listening to their back catalogue all morning, and it’s very impressive. They keep pushing the envelope with each new release. Plus, their cover of SP’s Bodies is savage. Close enough to the original, but out on its own nonetheless.
You might like Twinzero pal. Formed from the ashes of earthtone9. Similar post-metal / progressive vibe, but way better than a lot, if not all, of what’s out there.
:Twinzero - Outstayed
A stonewall classic, can’t believe it’s only being posted now, was going to put it up myself a few weeks back but then just assumed it already had been. Saw them at the SFX back in the mid 90’s - Manic fucking aggression!
Great call @KinvarasPassion. Up there with Seasons and Reign as the best metal records of all time. What a line: “Bastard sons begat your cunting daughters, Promiscuous mothers with your incestuous fathers.”
Earthtone9 - Star Damage for Beginners
The Blueprint - Sans Chorus
(Band made up of members of earthtone9, pitchshifter, and consumed)
Twin Zero - In Sha’ Allah
(Earthtone9, etc. members)
2016 Faith no More - Cone of Shame
1992 Faith no More - A Small Victory
Not bad mate.
Digging this one from a Galway band actually
Faith No More are one of my bands of the moment that I am “opening up” to… dunno why I never bothered with them before, crazy range of styles.
