What album are you listening to? v.7

[wolfking]

Listening to the Chadenfold. I seem to have already Saved it in Spotify. I thought it looked familiar.

It's not bad. A bit too keyboardy if you ask me. I'd rather the guitar be more up front.

Chadenfold.  Still laughing at that one. 

The couple songs I listened to reminded of Wintersun with the vocals but with the keyboard drive, I just a lot of old Sonata Arctica vibes.

[TAC]

Sonata Actica is not really my thing, though, but yeah, I can see that.

[wolfking]

Spinning this SkyEye again in the car while scooting around for work and yeah I definitely hear Fabio.  Some places overall I hear a lot of early Queebsryche too.

[jingle.boy]

Listening now. I can actually cope with this. At least they aren’t those guttural deep growlies - that would have been a deal breaker. This album is very enjoyable. I would enjoy it more with just cleans though.

Pretty much where I'm at.  And since there are just as many songs with clean-only vox, this is something I can easily make my way through.  I've always said, I can get along with growls that are tasteful, purposeful and meaningful.

But can you hear it?

Spinning the SkyEye momentarily.

Hmmmm....I think I must be a growl whore.

Bear's are legit, so I'll check this.

FYI, the debut of SkyEye, Digital God is worth checking too.  I think the second one is better but it's a great debut.  If you liked Soldiers of Light that is.

[TAC]

I plan on hitting it.

[wolfking]

I plan on hitting it.

Hmmm.....this is interesting.  Almost like prog metalcore or something.

[TAC]

My favorite song on that album is Autumn Fades Away. When the song and vocals kick in it's 

[wolfking]

Huh....they are from Australia.

[TAC]

Did Eddie chop that dog's leg off?

[Cool Chris]

TAC, I am sorry if I am busy nosy, or if this is public knowledge... but what the heck do you do for work where you can apparently spend every second of it listening to music?

[hefdaddy42]

Ethel Cain - Preacher's Daughter

[ReaperKK]

Listening to the new Kendrick Lamar album Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, probably one of my favorite albums of the year so far.

He doesn't put carts away.

Florence + The Machine - Dance Fever

I listened yesterday.  Good stuff.

Kevin Morby - This Is A Photograph

[nick_z]

Inspired by Wolfking's batch a couple of days ago, some vintage In Flames...

To me, this combo of the Subterranean EP + The Jester Race is absolute peak-In Flames. I don't see the EP very often in conversations about In Flames, but I think it's just some of the best melodic death metal ever put to tape. The one-two punch of Stand Ablaze and Ever Dying is unbelievable, with amazing guitar melodies coming from all directions. And the acoustic guitars sound so good too. Really cool "transitional" music between their debut Lunar Strain and The Jester Race.

EDIT: How good is the guest guitar solo by Fredrik Johansson (RIP) on December Flower??

Kreator - Endorama

Visions of Atlantis - Pirates

Yes. Visions of Atlantis  - Pirates..Enjoying it very much. Clementine's voice is angelic.

[Deathless]

Despite being on this forum I've never actually listened to the entire DT discography, so working on that this week. Really enjoyed FII top-to-bottom.

 

Dream Theater - Falling Into Infinity
Seventh Wonder - Tiara
Soilwork - Verkligheten

Wow, that's interesting!

Mysteries of the Revolution - Longing For The Dawn

[Sacul]

Despite the simple and ambiguous cover, it hides one of 2020's very best records.

I don't listen to the debut or the EP all that much but should revisit.  It's always been about the Jester Race for me.

[TAC]

I almost played it this morning. Dammit.
