Brutus - Nest

I keep going back to Unison Life...one late discovery from last year that was a real surprise. I've checked out Nest too, which I liked but not quite as much. Haven't tried War yet.

Correction: The album is Nest. War is the song which is my favorite of that album. Great album but not as consistent compared to Unison Life.

I would say Unison Life is their best yet. It still has the pure and raw energy of the earlier records but has more variety and sounds like they really took the time to find the best approach for each song.

Ah, yes...I didn't pay close enough attention to that myself  :) I'd agree with War being the best song on Nest, and also that Unison Life is a better album. I said it before - Unison Life threads that delicate line of "angst", melancholy and energy just right. I agree that Nest sometimes feels a little more monothematic from a musical standpoint (at least for my taste).

The album of theirs I still need to hear is Burst (which I believe is the debut...?)

Yeah there really is no such thing as a bad Motörhead album.

Love The Artist in the Ambulance...I listened to that album SO much when it came out. Curious to hear what the revisited version sounds like. What did you think?

And another one I've got DTF to thank for.

Who is the band and what genre of music?

It's Mantiis by a band called Obsidian Kingdom. Genre? Well I guess it's progressive post-black metal or something. Just give it a spin.

Really liking this on first listen.  I think it is a keeper.

I only really started listening to Thrice about 5 years ago, and only heard The Artist in the Ambulance fairly recently, so the original is still pretty new to me. I was kinda distracted whilst listening but I enjoyed it, I couldn't really tell you what the differences are though  :lol  I might need to listen to them back to back.

I think I've got all their albums but this is easily my favourite, great record.

I just listened to this last a couple of weeks ago. Great album.

100,000 Years  :metal
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

I love this one. DLR's first three solo albums are all killer no filler to me.

Peter Gabriel: Us (love everything he does, seriously, one of the very few artists where that applies IMHO. Anticipating the third piece on i/o too on March 6th)
"All my natural instincts are begging me to stop
But somehow I carry on, heading for the top

Helping me understand exactly who I am"
