Nice updates though.

I had more Obituary at one time. I just got tired of death metal for a while and was trading off some of it for other stuff I wanted. However, I've been getting back into some of it again. Looking to get some more Six Feet Under as well. Really like their primitive death metal style.

metalinmyveins, you got me on a Genesis kick now!

Started re-writing reviews for other CDs too.

Sweet. Yeah, I've decided that my next three C.D purchases will have to be "Trick of the Tail", "Wind & Wuthering", along with "...And Then There Were Three". I never really understood how important Steve Hackett was in Genesis until now. I see why both Banks and Rutherford view "Wind & Wuthering" as one of the top two albums in the Genesis discography. It's a masterpiece!

I got into a Genesis kick recently did their entire history on FB by posting a video a day on FB last week, it was great picking a song from each album and seeing how they evolved.


BTW excellent job on your page as always ULT and plan to re-read your Genesis reviews this week

BTW ULT when is the last time you listened to 'Calling All Stations' your review was short and to the point, I seem to be only Genesis fan that not only loved that album but wish they had continued with Ray Wilson, just wondering if your opinion has changed since the time you wrote this review.

I can't remember the last time I listened to that album, but being that I am on a Genesis kick, I'll probably pull it out and re-evaluate it.

General question for Ult and Kmorg

Have either of you ever taken down an album or review from your sites after going back later, listening to it again and thinking "Wow, this album stinks. Why do I have it on here?"

I have removed stuff from my site. I had Satan's Host on my site for a while, but traded the CD, so I removed it. I also had a big Obituary page at one time, but grew bored with death metal for a while and traded them, so I removed them.

I have removed stuff that I have sold too. My Aerosmith and Ace Frehley pages, f.ex., are much "smaller2 now than they used to. In the case of Ace Frehley, I have regrets, and have slowly started to rebuy his albums.

That's a really small guitar in the Night Ranger picture

i still say, you need to listen to Asphyx. they'd be right up your alley, death metal wise anyway.

I don't have any of those yet. Sorry. Wish I did.

Ult, have you ever checked out the BulletBoys?

While I can't speak for all of their albums, the debut and follow-up are some really decent Van Halen-inspired hard rock. You can find them both dirt cheap on Amazon.

I just broke both of those discs out for a fresh spin. I forgot how much I enjoyed them.

BulletBoys? Yes. I have several of their CDs up for review.

Then the link is missing from your main page. I see Budgie, Bullet and Burning Starr but not BulletBoys.

No, I mean, I have several of their CDs WAITING to be reviewed. They are not on the site yet.

Scott, I know you got The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute before, and said you weren't all that impressed by it. Have you ever got hold of Deloused in the Comatorium or The Bedlam in Goliath? Those are less crazily experimental.

Actually I thought Frances the Mute was ok, but I got it from LaLa and it didn't have a cover or insert, so I got rid of it. Wouldn't mind getting it again sometime.
