FRIDAY RELEASES

[LithoJazzoSphere]

Checking out new Björk tomorrow.

For sure.

Just finished it.  It's exactly what you'd expect, which is completely fine with me.  The 90s/early 00s album are still untouchable, but she's still consistently excellent.  It's going to take a few listens to sink in though. 

[twosuitsluke]

Friday's looking good. My day is going to be dominated by the new King Gizz, but I'll check the others too.

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava

Lamb of God - Omens

A. A. Williams - As the Moon Rests

Aenaon - Mnemosyne

[LithoJazzoSphere]

A.A. Williams is definitely what I'm most looking forward to, but there's also Queensryche, Blind Illusion, Faceless Burial, and Cloud Rat as potentials. 

[nick_z]

Yep, very curious about the new Queensryche...

And also looking forward to the new Faceless Burial. Speciation was a fantastic slab of death metal.

[SoundscapeMN]

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

On my list I have new albums from:

Teramaze
Aara (although it's just an EP)
Illyria (I hope this is at least as good as their last album)
Glass Hammer
Major Parkinson
De Profundis
The Cult
Aenaon
Queensrÿche (if the album cover is anything to go on, it's going to sound like the Space Rock version of Empire )

[LithoJazzoSphere]

Oops, forgot Teramaze.  It was even on my list, and I skimmed right over it I guess. 

[ariich]

I've got a whole bunch of stuff tomorrow:

Borealis - Illusions
Broken Bells - Into the Blue
Illyria - Take Me Somewhere Beautiful
Maraton - Unseen Color
Parius - The Signal Heard Throughout Space
A.A. Williams - As the Moon Rests

[wolfking]

The couple of songs from the Borealis have been pretty good.

[jingle.boy]

Three songs in on the new Borealis. 

[TAC]

Illyria (I hope this is at least as good as their last album)

Not. Even. Close.

[jingle.boy]

1/2 way thru QR/Digital Noise Alliance.  Better than their last release.  Pretty much what you'd want/expect out of post-Tate QR.   

Next up, Teramaze.

[ariich]

Three songs in on the new Borealis. 

Great stuff from one listen. Nothing new or different, they're just really good at what they do.

Everything I'd want and expect from a Borealis album.

[LithoJazzoSphere]

A.A. Williams is definitely one of the best albums this year, I'm glad to see she has a bit of a following here, which will hopefully grow. 

Queensryche and Teramaze are quite solid, though the former doesn't have as many initial standout tracks as Todd's solo album did.

Teramaze was really nice on the ears. Very similar to their last couple of albums in style and production. Me likely plenty.

[Crow]

Illyria (I hope this is at least as good as their last album)

Not. Even. Close.

it's certainly not as interesting yeah but i liked it fine enough

[nick_z]

Parius - The Signal Heard Throughout Space

I came across this a couple of days ago and wanted to check if anyone had mentioned it here on the forum...sure enough, you did! 

Very cool record. I had checked out their previous album, The Eldritch Realm, found it quite interesting, but didn't really go back to it. This is a bit of a different beast, though. Dropped most of the harsh vocals, and went full-blown prog concept.

[wolfking]

Three songs in on the new Borealis. 

Man, I drifted in and out throughout this whole thing.  I guess it's Borealis by numbers but we've just heard this all before.

I may or may not have a home-country unconscious bias.

Checked out the new Ten Foot Pole record today (punk rock, only Cram would be interested  ) and that's all I've got.

So your recommendation is not to touch it with a ten foot pole?

For the majority of the people on this forum we better say twenty, to be on the safe side.

[wolfking]

   Roger that!

[Zydar]

I'm excited to check out David Longdon's posthumous album Door One that's being released today.

[Lonk]

About to Listen to Alter Bridge - Pawns & King

Yea fair shout, you also dig that sweet punk rock sound.

Yea it wasn't bad. Nothing groundbreaking but I'll give it another go this week.

[kaos2900]

Anyone check out the new Skid Row?

[Glasser]

Anyone check out the new Skid Row?

One listen so far. I really like it and the last album of theirs I liked was Slave To The Grind.

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

There's a lot to chew on this week....which is going to have to wait until I get back from vacation...
New albums from these artists today:
Sedna
Poppy
Sparta
Brian Eno
Red Hot Chili Peppers (I'm not expecting much from this)
Cavernous Gate
Nothing More
Alter Bridge

I put it on while I was working and think there were 2 stand out songs that made me look and flag as like, but nothing that was mind blowing. But it does sound like standard TFP lol

[twosuitsluke]

I've got absolutely nothing for tomorrow.

[ariich]

New Architects and Arena albums, although the latter doesn't seem to be available for streaming or even download yet, and I'm not paying £20 for an album I've not yet heard.
