- I can listen to good melodeath like Dark Tranquillity and old In Flames before they morphed into something unlistenable. This is mediocre at best and the cleans sound like some early 2000's emocore crap. Sorry, just my opinion.
Ha! All good, it ain't like these guys are personal friends of mine. Honestly, while writing this one I was trying not to sound like "Ehh, all this growly stuff sounds the same to me," haha _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

You kids and your devil music! Get off my lawn! ...but seriously, I honestly don't know enough about the melo-death genre to tell good from bad. Dude seemed like a nice guy so I'm not gonna shred his band just cuz it's not in my musical wheelhouse. It's not the first time a band has hit me up from a genre I'm unfamiliar with -- awhile ago some dude sent me his one-man death/black metal project (!) to review, and I know absolutely *nothing* about black metal -- I even emailed him like "Dude, are you *sure* you sent this to the right guy? I usually write about hair metal bands," haha, but he was like "that's fine, write whatever you want, I'm just trying to get my name out there. " So that's when I fall back on the "It's not my thing personally but if you like (various band names) maybe you'll dig this." _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

| Two new ones! I've been on a Tony Martin-era Black Sabbath kick, so I reviewed two of my favorite Sabbath albums from that era. "Headless Cross" https://spinditty.com/genres/Forgotten-Hard-Rock-Albums-Black-Sabbath-Headless-Cross "Cross Purposes" https://spinditty.com/genres/Forgotten-Hard-Rock-Albums-Black-Sabbath-Cross-Purposes _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

| Headless Cross is a great album, Cozy is the best drummer they had imo. The rest of the Martin stuff isn't up to par with this album | |

Yep, H.C. is my favorite from that era. Someone on Facebook asked me if I was gonna do columns on "Tyr" and or "Forbidden" next ... I told'em Tyr might be a possibility down the road somewhere, but I wouldn't be much to say about Forbidden other than "...Meh." Haha. _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"

| Accident was a good album but Chemical Wedding was amazing.
I'm not a huge Kiss fan, mostly like the singles except for Creatures and Destroyer.
Not into WS but Korey seemed as big an ass as Axl without the fame.

| I remember looking for these used at the time so I could check out new bands. The internet has made hearing new bands easier but somehow it's not as exciting as it was. But i'm old. | |

I pick them up whenever I find them now, but back when albums like these were current, it was too risky for me to buy an album full of no-names. I was afraid I'd only like one or two bands and the rest would be duds. Some people liked gambling their allowance money that way, but I tended to stick with the known quantities. Looking back, I wish I'd been more adventurous, I could've been O.G. Tr00. _________________ "If you're a false, don't entry, because you'll be burned and died!"
