The Offspring - Smash
It's good in small doses. I got an headache when I listened to it start to finish, non-stop. That was a mistake, but it's alright, I guess.

Yes. At the very least it's not a way around it.

Torrents.

If you're smart with torrents, nothing will happen. Don't go try and snag some torrent with 0 seeders and comments that's from a user that has never uploaded anything else. I've been doing this for years and never encountered an issue.

meh, I feel like Torrents are a faster way to get you throttled nowadays since they are looking out for it more. Doesn't mean that it will happen to you but it may.

Rosetta - The Anaesthete (2013)

One of my favorite atmospheric sludge metal/post-metal bands. Their 2005 debut album The Galilean Satellites was an ambitious project and really showcased their skills in both ambient electronic music and metal. Their 2007 album Wake/Lift was competently put together and played well, but lacked the same ambition their debut did. 2010's A Determinism of Morality was more focused and featured their best songwriting and song arrangements, but I think The Anaesthete may be their best album to date.

Shame about the cover though, especially given their last three.

Agree about the album cover though. Very very lame.

You know it's been a long time since I've listened to Wake/Lift so my opinion might me out of date. Regardless I was quite impressed by their new album and it's definitely going to wind up in my top 10.
