New Release Roundup and an Embarrassing Grail 

Your comp sounds as random as mine, haha. What should follow Metal Church? Ted Nugent, of course! Tyr is a great one, but I don't know how available it is. The box set is probably the easier option. You have some work ahead of you if you are trying to like the new SFU! 😆 Thanks, Steve!

That is very generous of you to call it a "great" compilation, haha. I get it with Rotting Christ, there have been a string of 7/10 albums for the last ten years, but I really think this one stands above those. And to answer your question, I bought the new SFU because I hate money and myself. 😁 Thanks, Roger!

I don't have any of the 300+ Ifernach releases yet but I know it is great stuff. Lunar Spells is a definite recommend, kind of staying in their lane which is why I didn't have a lot to say about it. Thanks, Mat!

Don't talk about the Japanese press of the "Like A Virgin" 12" I'm hunting, you will jinx it for me! Thanks, Brian.

It's going to be a good time for sure. Hope you can join us, Anthony!

Absolutely! Sometimes I think they don't get attention because they have never broken up and been so consistent. Thanks, Zach!

That's great news! Thanks, Kevin!

I wanted to talk about that cheapo comp because of how much it meant to me as a kid, but I didn't want to build it up into something amazing. 😆It is strange that I still knew what song was next despite not hearing it for 30 years, haha. Thanks, Tony!

No, you absolutely do not need to bother. Reasonable people stopped at the first 3. An SFU ranking might be fun, to figure out just which one is the worst, haha. Thanks, Dave!

Bro, don't you want a crappy "incense burner" and some guitar picks? 😁 If you are a Rotting Christ fan I would recommend the box just for the two bonus tracks, but like I said they will probably end up on a comp in a few years. I know my grail is lame, but that made it very cheap, so I win! Thanks, Simon!

I'm just trying to keep everyone away from SFU because it is so good and I want it to be my little secret...but I'm inviting you to the club. Definitely buy it. 🤣Seriously though, I might go back and get the vinyl set of Rotting Christ if I keep enjoying it as much as I am. Thanks, Sean!

I've never done a Rotting Christ ranking, that would be interesting but quite an undertaking. I had never heard of Aufnorden until a few weeks ago; it's always cool to get turned on to a new band out of nowhere. Thanks, Bill!

I do vastly prefer the Corpsegrinder albums. Not necessarily for the vocals, but CC just got better as players and songwriters. Haha, I contributed to the SFU scam by buying it WHEN I SHOULD KNOW BETTER! I was just holding out hope that Jack Owen could right the ship. Thanks man!

@n0s0luti0n That is where I am coming from also Scott. The musicians are still throwing Easter eggs into their artistry from album to album. But the key for me is the consistency, George has been able to maintain that growl like few others have. I see their consistency as a huge plus for their success. I almost liken them to the Greatful Dead, or the Jimmy Buffet of Death metal/Grind core. A CC fan can rely on them to deliver what we expect them to. So many artists really misstep when they get experimental, one such I will mention is Celtic Frost during the 90s not a real good person for them. But Monothiest proved they never lost it, but they still threw that other trash out to us. I completely understand you getting the new SFU ALBUM, but it suxxx when we spend our hard earned cash for garbage. It is always a hope that when talented artists come together they can build a workable chemistry, and put out a magical effort. I have always said if the album suxxx why would you waste money on tickets? To watch them play the old songs? Oh well that's just me tho, just remember my metal brother, we are a community that are fans of a common cause, and it's up to us to keep the faith and pass it on to the younger generations. Bang yer fkkin hed!!! 🤟

Wasn't there a version of JP with a bonus 7" with the extra tracks? I don't know if it was available everywhere, and it probably was expensive. Now I need "Vicious Vinyl"! That's awesome, thanks for the info. A lot of randomness on there too, but cool that Side 4 is all Australian bands. Thanks, Keith!

@@n0s0luti0n That JP with bonus 7" , and even the deluxe hardcover C.D edition is not easily found here. And yes pricey to order from overseas.

LOL I remember the K Tel label 😂😂😂😂

Ok, I thought the clip at the end of your videos looked familiar! I do remember that TV spot now. K-Tel is TRVE KVLT for sure! While I joked about everyone making a video about the BS set, it is cool to see the interest in these albums that were mocked and ignored. For decades I felt like the only person in the world who thought Headless Cross and Tyr were good, haha. Thanks, Jason!

@@n0s0luti0n K-Tel is TRVE KVLT...I'm stealing that one mate haha! Love it. I actually watched a TRVE KVLT warrior lose his shit on a youtube live stream at the start of the week. Usually I can get a giggle out of that stuff but it was depressing AF to be honest. Youve put me in the mood to give Headless Cross a rattle tonight. Nice one mate.

@@blackleathereyes3673 I don't know if we are thinking of the same person (I'm sure there are more than one of these chuds) but I agree, it stops being funny and becomes sad. When you listen to Headless Cross, take a drink every time Tony Martin says Satan, you will have an epic night! 🤮

@@n0s0luti0n The vid/stream was deleted afterwards, prob for the best mate haha! I'm taking you up on the Tony Martin/Headless Cross challenge for sure ! I'll let you know how I get on bro 😄

😂😂😂😂😂

That's a horrible question! 😁 While SFU is terrible it wasn't unexpected, just continuing the downward trajectory. Morbid Angel's is far more cringy and embarrassing, so I would have to pick them. Thanks, James!
