Awesome :) I got da hoodie..what time is it there, Req?

It's just gone 8pm. With daylight savings the enemy sun is only now starting to fade and a loving cloak of cemetery grey cloud is sweeping in. 

What time is it where you are?

1996 Cradle of Filth. 2018 Requiem. 

Still, a nice morning coffee in bed with some Taake and nowhere to be is a great way to spend a morning, whichever hemisphere you find yourself in.

1349 "Liberation"  the hyper blasting drums on here are borderline ridiculous.  What the fuck Frost was thinking in believing this was a good idea is beyond me.  They take away from the rest of the instruments and leave me really irritated.  They seem to calm down after a few tracks and I get some decent BM fodder to pick at in their reprise but they remain the overarching memory of the record unfortunately.  The Mayhem cover is good though.

Discharge "Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing" - seems fitting for the first day in work of 2018.

Damn, you were discharged on the first day back at work? That sucks. 

As for Frost, his side-projects seem more and more an unshackling from Satyr's megalomaniacal grasp. Everyone thinks this guy is great but I just don't see it. He's ok but I really don't get excited when I see a 'Featuring Frost' sticker on the album case. 

p.s Joking re Discharge. I get the gag. 

Now listening: 

Moonspell - '1755'

What a miracle album for lovers of gothic/melodic metal. My album of 2017 and an immediate classic.

Comedy Requiem is comical.

Yes, I feel pretty much the same about Frost.  My overriding image of him was on the Black Metal documentary on YouTube were he took work in some obscure self-harm ceremony in some nightclub somewhere, smashed up some ornaments whilst sliding ll over the place in ridiculous boots before slashing at himself on a couch in the name of "art".

Penis.

I remember that. It was all fake of course and just so lame. Can you imagine what Dead would think watching that? Just typical of Satyricon. They struck it big as young guys and now it's all so lost, so lost...

Agreed.

NP - Death Rides a Horse "More God Than Man" - Danish power doom - apparently.

Summoning - Lugburz

The band we all love to love. I have four albums and I love the idea of them more than I love the actual albums. But I'm always happy to see them mentioned. 

Now Playing: Gorgoroth - 'Quantos Possunt Ad Satanitatem Trahunt'

"Rebirth of Gorgoroth."

I dig Lugburz, but I'm kinda lukewarm to the rest. Noticed that they have a new album that's due out on the 5th.

Minor Threat s/t

Bad Brains s/t

Okay so I have only ever flirted with the odd punk album.  Until today I had never even heard any Black Flag or Bad Brains.  It is such an influence on a few of my regular plays from metal though and it seems almost bonkers that I have listened to metal for 28 years and still never listened to more than two punk albums before now.  2018 discovery? Punk.
