Last week, we celebrated Valentine’s Day by being “those” Metal guys and reviewing mostly Black Metal. This week, we bring back the spice of life and cover four different kinds of metal in our reviews. We still have a little Black Metal this week, but it’s mixed with a bit of Hardcore, a dash of Death Metal, and a pinch of Progressive. Kyle is once again MIA, so Brian takes the wheel to navigate through the various sub-genres and also shares his live review from his recent experience with The Devin Townsend Project and Gojira.
Reviews: Disperse – Living Mirrors; Enshadowed – Magic Chaos Psychedelia; Shai Hulud – Reach Beyond the Sun; Suffocation – Pinnacle of Bedlam
Suffocation – Pinnacle Of Bedlam
You had me fooled there for a minute when earlier in the week you tweeted “or is he” regarding whether Kyle was MIA again.
At the Devin Townsend show, I would have never guessed that I’d be doing jazz hands to “Lucky Animals” and moshing to “Grace” but it was some of the most pure fun I’ve ever had at a show.
And even though I never got into their music, Shai Hulud has to be one of the best band names ever. I am a big Dune fan.
