NLTM Oct. '11 Update

Also, in your review for Leather's Shock Waves album, you say that Pat O'Brien has also played with Cannibal Corpse (who he still plays with), Lethal, and Nevermore. He never played in Lethal.

Thanks.

BTW, ult, I think you should edit your Wants list, as a lot of stuff you already have is still on there...

Thanks. I always forget to do that.

Scott, I didn't see Leather listed on the artist listing on the main page.

It's there, just above Leatherwolf.

I must have missed it, or you must have added it since then.

When you can, check this Toto album out:


It's a pretty decent soundtrack.

QFT!!!!!!!!!!!! Love that soundtrack. Dune (Desert Theme) is one of the best instrumental song I have ever heard! Also Take My Hand (the music that played during the end credits) is also awesome and very beautiful.

OK, thanks.

Ult, have you heard Medieval Steel?
Really great epic metal:

I've heard Medieval Steel. I have nothing on CD as of yet.

I'll be adding a couple of Pentagram and Heavy Pettin' CDs on the next update, as well as some more Hanoi Rocks.

Nice.
How about Danzig? And since you added some more Journey, Toto and Styx in the past few updates, how about Survivor or Jefferson Starship ( and Jefferson Airplane, while we're at it;wouldn't recommend Starship, though, I don't mind them, but you probably won't like them ).

Survivor I have some. Still need to review it.

Adding some more Nazareth next time around as well.

Which albums?

BTW, some of the albums, like Angel Witch's debut (another band you should get more of; the debut has been rereleased as a Deluxe Edition recently) and first two Pat Travers albums are still missing reviews...Would be nice to see them reviewed soon...Or you could also add those other unreviewed albums to the site and review them later...

The Angel Witch and Pat Travers I have on vinyl. Might be a while before I can get to those.

R u gonna review dread from albuquerque?

I need to get to that one. Unfortunately the album just doesn't really represent them well. They are so far superior on stage than they are on that demo CD.

Oh, and some more Budgie is a must!

I just got to thinking, ult, why don't you have the last Living Sacrifice album yet?

I don't know. Is it any good? Haven't really liked a LS disc since "Reborn" and haven't loved one since the debut. All their discs since Reborn sound the same to me.

Well I just got it a couple days ago finally (partly why I went to see what your thoughts on it were), and the first listen wasn't that impressive. I think I'll play it again in a little bit though.

My thoughts on post-DJ LS: I like Reborn and love The Hammering Process, but with Conceived in Fire, although I was really into it at first, it hasn't held up well. In just the last year I downloaded the 4 relevant tracks from "In Memoriam" and was really impressed by the 3 new ones, especially Killers, which I think has a pretty awesome main riff.

The 2 song ep they released on iTunes, Death Machine, while being metalcore, is also pretty excellent in my opinion.

So given my thoughts on In Memoriam's new tunes, and Death Machine, I had high hopes for the newest one, but the first listen was definitely disappointing. I'll let you know if I change my mind on follow-up listens.

But I'm thinking I will think of it like Conceived in fire, which is to say, kind of like you do: it sounds too "samey".

Yo, Scott. Did you ever hear Torture Squad?

If so, seeing them on your site sometime would be cool.

I have no Torture Squad. I've seen a few YouTube clips. They sound decent enough, sort of death/thrash metal.

Ult, have you heard ASAP? The late '80s British hard rock band Adrian Smith formed after leaving Maiden?
