Have fun when Inspectah Deck shows up at your house with the Wu-Tang Sword and smashes your nuts with a spiked fu‎ckin' bat.

3 Hurel - Hurel Arsivi (1974)

A Turkish Psychedelic album that I stumbled across on Waffles which is simply amazing. You can tell what region the music is from instantly and if you like Eastern European music this is just a treat.

You could say whatever you want about Metallica, but put that aside for a moment when listening to this album. I love it, it's one of my favorite metal albums of all time.

I listened to this for the first time in a few years a couple of weeks back and I have to admit to being completely underwhelmed by it.

It just doesn't hold up well despite some great riffs here and there.

Snake! Snake! Snakes!- EP

Wow...that's really all I can say to describe this. Bombastic orchestral rock. I want a full length!

I have to agree to some extent. I'll always consider it a classic metal album that ranks at least 4 out of 5 stars, but I guess I just burned myself out on it and it's become too dated for more than an occasional listen.

Rodan - Rusty (1994)

I've heard this referred to as Slint's third album (in jest of course) and while I'll agree, it does share some similarities with Tweez and Spiderland, it really is an entity in and of itself.

I know exactly what you mean. I still find the solo on Fight Fire With Fire to be impressive and every time I hear it I have high hopes for the rest of the album. Soon after I'm reminded the rest is kind of boring. Master of Puppets still impresses a bit, though. Mostly I just feel like I've outgrown Metallica.

Soundpool - Mirror In Your Eyes

Every time I find an amazing album by a band I'm always a bit nervous to hear what else they've done. I hate it when one of their other albums isn't up to par with the one I got into. It tarnishes my image of the band. Luckily, this is not the case here.

I posted about Soundpool's album Dichotomies and Dreamland a while back. I had no clue how they could top it because it really was a great album. Well, they did somehow. They have beefed up the dance-ability times 10 yet the music is still obviously shoegaze. Wow. Just wow...Soundpool goes into my top 3 modern shoegaze bands for sure.
