Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

The Fierce & the Dead - News From The Invisible World



Carly Rae Jepsen - The Loveliest Time

How is it?
Not bad, I guess.  On first listen, I think I liked her last release better.  But a couple of cool tunes at least.

This kinda was on my radar when I was looking at today's releases. Not because I had any idea or knowledge of the band, but it sounded intriguing. Now that you are confirming, I'll check this out  :)

(btw, are these teeth, or nails at the edge of that chasm?  :biggrin:)

I actually listened to these in the last couple of weeks.
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

Hell yes!! I did the same right after the show. Listened to a bunch of boots, and live albums.

God, the crowd fluctuations in Luna Park and BTFW are vomit inducing. Who fucking mixes these?

BTFW reminds me of Rush In Rio. They sound like shitty audience recordings.

The boot is actually really good. The official version I think sounds excellent. It's just the constant fucking around with the crowd levels is fucking annoying as hell, and simply not realistic.

The band is mixed fine for me. It's the crowd fuckage that blows.

Well he's responsible for the crowd fuckage. So fuck him! (Just kidding)

I’ll check it. It’s on Pelagic so that’s always a good sign.

I'm loving the Voyager record more with each listen. It's so well-crafted and catchy, and they are still totally doing their thing. Mutoid Man, as I mentioned in the Friday thread - cool record, I'm enjoying it. And the Nuclear Power Trio! Wow. How much fun was that?  :) The performances are stellar!

The Voyager didn’t do a great deal for me at all. I have sampled 4 Voyager albums now but nothing has stuck, I guess they’re just not for me. Mutoid Man is pretty fun for what it is, nothing game changing but a fun jaunt.

I didn’t realise NPT’s new one was out already, I’ll get on that tonight!

Yeah, all the Voyager's albums I've heard really hit the spot for me. I guess, especially now, they are not the only ones to combine that kind of chunky riffage with 80s-style synths and vocals but, man, they do it so well (and they were early movers anyway  ;)). I still have to explore their pre-Meaning of I records.

Yep, NPT is out! I had read the occasional reference here on DTF but hadn't checked out their previous EP. Again - the album is a ton of fun, for sure.

Easily one of the greatest songs I've heard in a long long time.  This whole album is a masterpiece.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

Glad you are enjoying it. An Abstract Illusion is one of the best Proggy Technical Death Metal bands to come out in the last 10 years. Definitely give their first album a listen as well, it's my favorite of the two, but really they are both basically 5/5 albums.

I actually just spun it for the first time about a week ago.  I like Woe better but the first album was amazing also.  Gotta check the EP next.
