Out Of The Cellar IS a distant memory.

 :lol  It’s a great album

I bought it when it came out. Stephen Pearcy is fine on Round And Round, but he's fucking awful. Their music wasn't so good that I could get past him. I definitely would've dug them with a different singer.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Katatonia - Mnemosynean. I knew this band as a death metal band back in the day and avoided them like the plague. This is something else entirely. I loved it.

Agree! Absolutely love this album. Have been surprised it hasn't been talked about much at all on the forum, as I know there are a few big Katatonia fans around.

Well, I listened to my first Slash featuring MK and the C's. I bought their live album a few years ago, but I don't think I've played it in its entirety.

Anyway, I think this earned a second listen. That said, I should like this more than I do. Has a cool sound and vibe. But there's something about Miles Kennedy that I can't put my finger on. I really don't warm up to his voice for some reason.

Fall Back To Earth is fantastic. Holy shit. Just needs a different singer IMO.

I think this is a good album (but I love Miles Kennedy), however it isn't anything special. Personally, I feel World on Fire is by far the best solo Slash album. All the rest have some good songs but overall aren't that strong.

Exactly my opinion, World on Fire is AMAZING from start to finish!
If you are interested to see the whole new album played live, in studio:

Nice one! I'll check it out.

I'm with you.  And he didn't even have the charasma of some of the other crappy singers of that era.

This is a collection of B-sides...Katatonia has a knack for non-album tracks that are, for the most part, wonderful.

Lowdz: what was the last you had heard from Katatonia before now? They were a (death-)doom band only for a very short period of time. I love all their incarnations (Brave Murder Day is a classic in my book), but if you are looking for non-death Katatonia, there's a TON to enjoy. You are in for a treat  :)

I've got an album by "Creation's End" from 2010, A New Beginning - which I very much like.  Wonder if it's the same act? .... Yup, Metal-Archives says it is.  I'll add this to my month of 2014 listening - May.

Yes they made two albums. Just heard of them yesterday and this was the only one on Spotify.

Took me too long to pick up a copy of this, but it’s pretty great. NDV on drums, Benoit David on vocals.

On Yes, I just tell myself they stopped making studio albums after Keys to Ascension.  I feel better that way!

Great choice in Duke, by the way!  I've been listening to the Trick to Duke albums a lot lately.  So much goodness!

I enjoyed it. It’s not Name Of The Rose or Spellbound but their best for a long time. I n3ver really gave thei4 last couple much of a go though.
