The Blood of Heroes - The Waking Nightmare (2012)

Probably my last album of 2012, unless Deltron 3030's Event II drops sometime between now and the 31st. This is one of Justin Broadrick's (Godflesh, Jesu, Techno Animal) side projects and features a couple other electronic musicians whom I'm only slightly familiar with. In any case it's a industrial noisy dub album that sounds like the perfect antithesis to the Holiday crap music I have to hear every time I go to the store.

Really good noise/industrial album from 2012. Gotta check out God And Beast which is apparently fantastic.
yeah i think like the title says Boyd went back to more simplistic noise.....and released a really good album

yeah God and Beast is a bombastic cacophony of misanthropic hate....a very fun listen at the right times....

also check out In The Shadow of the Sun


it's weird to think that the two biggest sellers on Mute records are NON/Boyd Rice and Depeche Mode

Kalter - Ubuntu (2012)

French Canadian progressive death metal band with a really interesting take on the genre, adding elements of NWOBHM and neo-classical with string synths, soaring solos, and some nice shreddy riffs. Only about halfway through it, but I'm liking what I hear.

Graveyard - Lights Out (2012)

Pretty epic stoner/doom album released a few months ago.



Scott Walker - Bish Bosh (2012)

Probably his most out there, experimental and noisy album to date (that I have listened to). Pure art.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - 'Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend! (2012)

So far I'm liking the first track, it's loud. I like when post-rock is loud.

I didn't download this, but I just finished listening to it:



I have mixed feelings about this album. It has some really good moments (the second half of m.A.A.d city, the entirety of Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst, and Compton), but there are also some tracks that are ****ing terrible (Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe, Backseat Freestyle, and the first half of m.A.A.d city). The rest of the album is pretty good, but there are still some elements of a few tracks that seem pretty generic IMO. The skits actually didn't annoy me, though.

Goatwhore—Carving Out the Eyes of God
After seeing these guys live last week, I figured I'd check out one of their albums. Haven't listened to it all the way through yet, but it seems pretty good. It's kind of retro-sounding in way, rolling older styles of black metal and death metal, with a touch of thrash and grindcore, into a dirt-encrusted weapon of mass destruction. Not the most groundbreaking thing I've ever heard but then I don't think it's trying to be. It does what it does pretty well.




Primate—Draw Back a Stump
Another band I decided to check out because of seeing them that at the show last week. Some pretty good shitkicking-style metal/hardcore here from members of Brutal Truth and Mastodon. I'm digging it. Great driving music.

Cheers Pete. I was looking at this one earlier today and now I may check it out. Are you plugging certain gaps in 2012 today as well? certainly seems like it.

My plan is to listen to this one again at some point but I was really disappointed with it. I had only checked out certain Youtube videos of odd tracks off previous records before listening to Lights Out but that kind of cool retro hard rock/stoner sound that I was expecting just wasn't there, or didn't hit me in the way I thought it would.

I need to delve deeper into this band yet though to really make a judgement.

I bought the LP and listened to it a few times. Loved it. I haven't listened to it again recently as planned though so will have to get on that. I'm glad they came up with the goods after such a long absence.

I havent heard the Goatwhore record. I may need to check that. I havent even heard of the other band though, so might check them as well.

Guided by Voices - The Bears for Lunch (2012)
I've never been a big GbV fan, though I like many other bands in the same style and from the same time period. I tried Bee Thousand once and just couldn't get into it. I've sampled tracks from more recent efforts and have thought about listening to an album, but haven't. A friend on another forum recently posted this saying it was really good, so I said what the hell, why not. And you know, I like it. It reminds me a bit of Sebadoh and Mission of Burma mixed together. Just like most late 80s/early 90s lo-fi indie bands, there are forgetable tracks. But overall I think it's pretty solid. I like it enough to post in this thread because it's the last thing I downloaded and I'm on my second spin now, but not enough that I would post it in the "Albums You're Digging" thread.
