Solid list, especially the Jinjer, Spiritbox, and Tribulation albums! Just curious, what are your thoughts on Colors II? I loved it but I know there was a decent chunk of the BTBAM fanbase who was kinda disappointed with it.
Not aware of any disappointment from the general BTBAM fanbase, but if that exists I'm certainly one of them. Nothing wrong with the playing/musicianship, it just felt a bit soulless and impenetrable for me. Especially after an amazing intro. I still haven't given up on it though! Gonna try a few more times
Nice to see ya, I thought "Colors II" would be your #1 cause BTBAM fens were gushing over it and I know u love the original "Colors". Otherwise I thought we had average year for metal but I have enough for Top 3: 1. Digerdöden - "Genom Dödens Svarta Törst" 2. Green Lung - "Black Harvest" 3. Carcass - "Torn Arteries"
Yeah like I mentioned to an earlier commenter, I found it a bit soulless and impenetrable. Still great playing on it though, and will definitely keep trying. Will check out your #1 and #2! Someone else recently recommended Green Lung to me
1. Every Time I Die - Radical 2. ERRA - Self-Titled 3. Whitechapel - Kin 4. Ice Nine Kills - Welcome To Horrorwood: The Silver Scream 2 5. Trivium - In The Court Of The Dragon 6. Born Of Osiris - Angel Or Alien 7. Spiritbox - Eternal Blue 8. Turnstile - Glow On 9. Tremonti - Marching In Time 10. Rise Against - Nowhere Generation Shame that no one is giving RA any love… Album artwork probably Trivium Song of the year: Northlane - Clockwork Ice Nine Kills for music video of the year. Gotta give it to Hip To Be Scared.
Nice. Those are some of my favorites from Eternal Blue too! Nice new set up with that bottle in the back hahaha. And yeah, From Dawn To Decadence would be a lot better without the weird vocal effects. Feast Of Fire is solid but I thought The Phalanx could’ve been chopped up a bit. And sorry, but Silence In The Snow is easily their worst album lol.
thanks, maybe I'll still do it. Or maybe a nice long Discography Ranking for them. Was not aware there was controversy around the NFTs, but given that M. Shadows in particular is known for being really into investing in general, it makes total sense.
I didn't catch any of that in this album, but I'm now really interested in getting into them. What is their absolute best album from the back catalogue??
His talents are being completely wasted in that band, and it's tough to watch. But a great gig for him I'm sure. Still holding out some hope for a great Arch Enemy album this year after being quite disappointed with Will to Power.
thanks so much for still watching! Tougher to get away from work these days than it used to be, but I don't think I'll ever stop uploading completely. love this stuff too much!
My list: 1. Firienholt: By the Waters of Awakening 2. Alustrium: A monument of silence 3. Mare Cognitum: Solar Paroxysm 4. Times of Grace: Songs of Loss and Separation
damn, love to see Firienholt here! All great choices. Couldn't get into Times of Grace as much, but "To Carry the Weight" is one of the best songs of 2021 for me.
