Accept- Metal Heart 

Not many better than that!

[Sacul]

Last week:

Pink Lemonade: And more roulette stuff (still got like 20 more of those lol). Pretty cool stuff, like a more alt-rock version of The Mars Volta and less crazy for the most part.

Hubardo: Uuhhhh I really like the calmer, mor atmospheric bits on this record, but when it gets heavier and chaotic... yeah it's not my cuppa tea, but I guess I'll give it more listens. Sounds like something Parama would like, it even has growls over calm sections 

Doolittle: Basically the blueprint for most of the lame indie/alt rock ever since? Yet it sounds better written and more interesting. I like the heavier, more ansgty bits. Will relisten.

Album One: Man, I really like Glass Goggles, but the rest of the record is just subpar ballads, really. I don't think I'll return to this one.

Hospice: Frist two, even three songs are awesome, but not sure how to feel about the rest being more upbeat. Let's see how it grows.

Emergency and I: Kinda like your typical indie/post-hardcore band but definitely more proggish and experimental. I feel Tomislav would dig this.

Souvlaki: Yeah I'm definitely liking this, way better than Loveless. Very atmospheric, dreamy songs.

Frengers: Conforting Sounds is great and should have probably given it a better score in my last roulette. The rest of the album is just ok I guess.

Dopesmoker: Yeah this is pretty repetitive and probably should last half as much but what the hell this is excellent. Fucking heavy and hipnotic. An hour long behemoth of a song dedicated to weed  But I ain't need to be high to dig this.

Be: Hey this is actually decent and creative... for the most part. Those spoken word sections are just terrible. But I like most of the music, feels pretty cinematic.

pretty sure the rest of the album after the first few songs isn't more upbeat  syvlia is actually one of the more upbeat songs really. two and bear are the only tracks i'd say are genuinely "upbeat" and two in particular sounds more like a panic attack than a bright, jangly indie rock song 

[Sacul]

I guess I meant upbeat as in "faster paced and energic" instead of happier like the first songs are very subtle for the most part before exploding, while the rest are more consistently less-subtle if that makes any sense.

Saga- Defining Moments

No I know what you meant I just don't agree 

[Sacul]

I guess I should listen with more attention next time, was making dinner while giving it a spin
