And I've just secured tickets for Mogwai in Manchester in Oct. Equally can't wait. FD, I've pm'd you.

Were Mogwai any good?

Have followed 'em since Young Team and saw them at Glastonbury around 2004 where they were very loud and very noisy. Haven't caught much of their newer stuff though so will have to check it out.

There were all kinds of (domestic) fuck ups and I didn't make it. Gutted.

Isn't everyone praying for that??

Oh for the heady days of Necroticism - Descanting The Insalubrious. I'm getting all misty eyed with nostalgia. I'm off to listen to Cathedral's ethereal mirror and ND's fear, emptiness depair.

I never could understand Cathedral, never liked it. F.E.D. on the other hand.....

Falling Down · January 26, 2009, 09:34:27 pm

So what's good at the moment then? I'm still playing ISIS, Mastodon and Slayer when I'm on the mood... anything else worth checking out?

They were some weird kind of death/doom then lee dorian learnt to sing you get three albums of disco doom and then he went back to his Napalm Death rumblings.

I liked the Carnival Bizarre, the rest of it was just nonsense. I think they were supposed to be the second coming of Black Sabbath or something, but crapper.

Can I include Down with their Nola lp or is that a bit lightweight for this thread? And the Dukes of Nothing War and Wine ep. Motorhead as it was supposed to be.

GCW · January 26, 2009, 09:58:12 pm

I mean, what the fuck?

Graeme78 · January 26, 2009, 10:02:56 pm

It's funny more than anything really. I mean you could have posted anything up, it's all pretty rediculous.

I'd forgotten how bad some of it was.

One word for you, it's who I've been listening to all week:

Pelican are fucking amazing. Check out Australasia for starters, then their eponymous EP, then March Into The Sea, then all the rest of the stuff. Today I've been listening to the These Arms are Snakes cover of Pelican's Pink Mammoth, which is fuckin' epic to say the least.

TICKED!
First proper gig I went to IIRC, saw them at the London Marquee, couldn't hear for 4 days after.

Sound quality aside, that video shows some immense riffage. Word.

Check out Jesu if you haven't already. It's Justin Brodericks post godflesh project. If you like Isis you'll like Jesu. I saw them together in Bristol a couple of years back. Check out Pelican too.

andy_e · January 28, 2009, 02:27:28 am

Sometimes I'll listen to nothing but drum and bass and electronica, but occasionaly I'll spend a couple of weeks at a time listening to nothing but Isis, Pelican, Tool, Jesu, Aereogramme, 65daysofstatic, Idlewild, etc...

BB · January 28, 2009, 10:06:08 am

If any of you are into your stoner rock, then i can recommend this site for beta on upcoming live acts...

Falling Down · January 29, 2009, 10:15:23 pm

Thanks Andi and BB.. I have Pelicans 1st EP but not the others so I'll check em out. Jesu I like too but it's an acquired taste like Sun>>0 and I'm after some straight up riffage with drums and lyrics 'n stuff.

andy_e · January 29, 2009, 10:41:07 pm

Ah, how could I forget earthtone9? A small band from Milton Keynes or something, they had 3 albums, all of which are amazing, but ArcTanGent is my favourite by far.

probably http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthtone9 or something similar

Try Sleep (sleep's holy mountain), high on fire (blessed black wings) and Monster Magnet (Monolithic baby, dopes to infinity).

Monster Magnet are my personal fave from that list. Awesome, psychadelic, stoner, space rock.

Falling Down · January 30, 2009, 09:38:32 am

Ace... I'll check 'em out. I have a MM album but can't remember the name and you're right they rock.

andy_e · February 06, 2009, 12:20:10 pm

This week, oi arrve been mostly listnin' to...

Amusement Parks on Fire- epic, that's all i need to say.

Small Brown Bike- not listened much but i've got started with them, they seem ace so far...

good call, i managed to see them about 10 times during their short stint. fucking brutal. the singer had huge tattoos, a beard and was once dressed in only cling film.

chappers · February 06, 2009, 01:00:00 pm

i dont know where this would fit, but some of you may be interested to check out my friends HOT bONE. look for their myspace or facebook or something.
they provide an interesting listen and are very intense.

andy_e · February 06, 2009, 01:14:57 pm

Oi chappers! Our mutual favourite band 65daysofstatic are touring with Amusement Parks on Fire in the next few months -YYFY!

BB · March 31, 2009, 02:11:25 pm

I've been rooting through some old cds and have embarked on a voyage into some serious stoner rock. The following are old but highly recommended:

Bonzilla - apogee
Sleep - sleep's holy mountain
Electric wizard - Dopethrone

Fiend · June 07, 2009, 12:03:48 pm

Just found a couple more death metal CDs that have tickled my fancy:

All Shall Perish - The Price Of Existence:

(also quite tempted by their slightly cruder and more brutal Hate Malice Revenge (which sounds quite a lot like Baphomet, no bad thing):
http://www.amazon.com/Hate-Malice-Revenge/dp/B000QZVA6M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=dmusic&qid=1244369659&sr=8-2 )

Kataklysm - In The Arms Of Devastation:
