Portugal. The Man - It's Complicated Being A Wizard (EP)
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

As good as Lisa is, I prefer Heike. Such a unique voice

Primordial - How It Ends

Myrkur - Spine 
I love this album. Probably going to be top 10 in my yearlist.

Rising Tide - Reflections
One of my friends is playing drums in this Dutch metalcore band. They just released an EP and while it's not my favorite genre I like it, especially the guitars.

You know, I don’t think I’ve ever checked this out. Is it along the same lines as “old” Nocturnus?

Oh yea, total old school vibe. It's not as good as the classics but it definitely holds it's own.

A Lukeamendation....

I think the song he played on the DJ Thingy the other night was the best song. Kind of masked the fact that this has a big stoner vibe. There's some cool moments though. The first two and the last two tracks are pretty cool.
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

Yep, this is good. I'd recommend their previous album too, Black Harvest. A mix of Sabbath and...Boston? Cool stuff.

Over the last few days...






Some random thoughts...Always amazed at how different North from Here sounds from the stuff that came right after. I mean, even Amok was basically a different beast. Hadn't listened to The Puppet Master in a long time...some nifty riffage in there, for sure. And Obsolete - another one I haven't revisited in ages. It was always going to be hard to follow Demanufacture (one of the top metal records of the 90s, as far as I'm concerned), and I always felt Fear Factory basically exhausted so much of their greatness on it. Indeed, this is not nearly as good but, honestly, with the perspective of many years now, it's a good one. The opening duo of Shock/Edgecrusher is truly, um, crushing. And the more experimental/melodic stuff is tasty (Descent, Freedom of Fire, Resurrection)

Some 2023 albums:




That Diviner album really is a good slab of epic metal...

Would you recommend Sirius B? I heard Lemuria a lot in recent years but never that one.

Back in the day I got the version that had both albums...

Yes, it's a good album. I will say, for my taste, Therion peaked with Theli...while the production values got better and better, the music has become less interesting. But Lemuria/Sirius B are still overall an entertaining listen. Lemuria is a bit shorter and "punchier", Sirius B is more symphonic and mid-tempo, so they complement each other quite well.

Thanks for your answer. Will have to check it out then.

I also think they peaked with Theli.. and Vovin maybe.
