Beastmilk.

Sounds like Ian Curtis fronting Lords of the New Church (which normally would totally not be my bag) with fancy new fangled production. I keep asking the wife to get the album so I don't have to admit I really like this band but she's not coming to the party. It sounds so good though.

I am listening to Colour Haze - All

https://myspace.com/colourhaze/music/album/all-12759947

These guys ride the border of my personal preferences, I think I am growing toward them though. They do rock.

ED: the sitar reminds me of Bill Hicks:

Sure, I could get up at dawn and go to a job I hate that does not inspire me creatively whatsoever for the rest of my ******* life. Or I could wake up at noon and learn how to play the sitar.

... that and the Mighty Boosh. In fact, I think Colour Haze found the new sound and ate it.

I must admit, a little bit of wee came out when I found out who's playing next Tuesday night at the Corner.

I didn't even realise BTBAM were touring until my mate asked why I wasn't at their gig...



<_<

Saw these blokes last night. Bloody good electric wizard worship. http://lizzardwizzard.bandcamp.com

some decent doom: http://whelmdk.bandcamp.com/album/a-gaze-blank-and-pitiless-as-the-sun

Warped was amazing, Millencolin were great, Reel Big Fish were hilarious as per usual, their cover of Call Me Maybe was great
Parkway Drive were incredible as always, they played in garbage bags because it was pissing down rain (apparently their first rain during a set in their 10 year career) and half the crowd was in ponchos
Confession were a bit disappointing, I'm a huge fan but their set was really short and they didn't put much effort in

Various of my ordered albums arrived and I've been getting into Buzzoven, eyehategod and a few related bands more and more.

Checking out some more of the recommendations given.

Listening to Minsk at the moment. oinly a couple of tracks but definitely less heavy and aggressive than I would like. Not bad by any stretch.

Ordered some Sourvein today and been enjoying the weedeater stuff I've heard so far.

Checked out 13 yesterday and while I didn't enjoy some of the black-esque vocals, not every track contains those and their detuned sludge guitar is crazy good.

Sorry to Bizier and Vitalstatistix but I'm finding I'm not so into the stoner doom like St Vitus and couldn't cope with the high end metal guitar solos of Elder - one of the cliches that's put me off metal for years and is thankfully absent in the southern sludge shit i seem to be drawn to. Hvae been enjoying Sleep though.

Not super keen on acid bath that I've heard so far.
Ahab is nice and heavy but not crazy about death Vox. Might revisit.
No love for corrosion of conformity.
Not sure about Boris - think that's a different trip.
Crowbar not my thing. Likewise Black label society

Tried a few other bands like soilent green (not my thing) and lair of the minotaur (probably not my thing either).

Not sure I'll buy bongzilla in a hurry but wouldn't be sad if it was on at a barbecue. Still need to buy electric wizard's dopethrone.

Fattura della morte didn't sound too bad and might get revisited if I still have a hankering once I get sourvein and maybe some 13* and weedeater. Seeing Melvins and eyehategod in the next two months so I'm guessing the hankering will continue.


* Actually 13 are awesome. Like tape being chewed

Cheers for all the suggestions.

Yah, Elder are dicks.

Check out Belezebong's Sonic Scapes & Weedy Grooves. That's pretty much the most embarrassing name(s) to have show up in your media player in front of others but I suspect it may fit in with the tip you're on. I really like it and think it fits in with the stuff you say you're liking.

 

[manticle]

Cheers bum.

Was checking out a bit of belzebong earlier. Wasn't bad at all.

And just found cough on youtube.
Need to check out more but good so far. Not sure if it makes the purchase list yet and definitely more stoner than other stuff that really grabs me (solos in the track I'm listening to at the moment are slightly off putting but pull away from being way over the top).

Enough with the upside down crucifixes on every alphabetical vertice though please metal heads.

Old favourites die hard (or just stay alive)

[Liam_snorkel]

Did you give Yob a go?

 

[WarmBeer]

Did you give Yob a go?

I hear his prices are sharp, but there's been some huffiness between himself and Australia Post over parcel size recently.

 

[Liam_snorkel]

Well done.

 

[manticle]

Yob's been recommended a few times. Will get onto it.

 

[Bizier]

Have you tried the band Dopethone?

 

[manticle]

Pretty sure AG/GWN has played me some during a brewday and impressions were good. Will make an effort to check them out.

 

[manticle]

^might be confusing it with EW album of the same name. Nonetheless, will have a listen.

 

[Bizier]

They are brutal. And while it is a schlock move, they do an entertaining cover of Bill Withers' - Ain't No Sunshine.

I am more a fan of the last two of their three albums.
