GOATLORD - Reflections Of the Solstice
An evil and sludgy mix of blackened death/doom circa 1991… The murky production here is perfect..

Listening to: Have always loved Dayglo Abortions. One of Canada's best punk bands, up there with D.O.A., NoMeansNo, SNFU and others as best known Canadian punk band. "Bedtime Story" is one of my favorites by them, that riff is great. But yeah, not really metal..... so how about the same song covered... their only music video: My favorite album by them, just 9 great songs. Love playing this one at work: great entertainment to be had (for me).

Listening to this song:
This one was always one of my favorite Slayer songs, and one I think is under appreciated in some ways. It, along with "Spill the Blood", rank as my favorite Slayer songs actually. Listening to it tonight, I think it is basically just a rewrite of "Seasons in the Abyss", the 2 songs have a few things in common. Even a touch of "Dead Skin Mask" perhaps. Has a similar feel at bits... the latter maybe more in theme, seeing as how they are both about killers (Ed Gein and Jeffery Dahmer). But anyways, I always loved this song. Out of nostalgia as well, since "Divine Intervention" was my first metal purchase.

However, every couple years I find myself listening to Six Feet Under's Warpath album (which I actually bought on CD). I'm sometimes a sucker for death + groove. I like Entombed for the same reason. Anyway, dunno about y'all but when I hear random mediocre stuff on the radio I'm usually more open to it. Here's a band I never thought I liked until I heard this song played on the radio by some local DJ... I Am Abomination by 1349:

Yeah, I confess to liking "Haunted" by Six Feet Under. Sure, it was just a lite version of Obituary mostly, and was not that great of an album.... but it has this crappy charm to it, that makes me wanna listen to it whenever I put it on.
Six Feet Under is that band I shouldn't like, but I do... like a b-movie version of Death Metal. Six Feet Under would probably be the Troma of that, or at least the Full Moon Entertainment version. Either way, I find "Haunted" to be a fun, no brainer kinda album that is just fun to listen to from time to time. I remember hearing it back in 1995 when some kid in my class handed me a copy and said "this may be more your thing". Fell in love with its hilarity back then, and still find it just as humorous when I hear it now. If "Haunted" were a movie, it would be the equivalent to "The Room". Some of my favorites: Good mid paced Groove influenced Death Metal. Okay, so they copied [I guess when 2 members of Obituary are in your band, you can say "recycled" instead of "copied] this riff from: but I still like this one. and of course: Still like this one as well, great groove to it. But yeah, "Haunted" is still fun. In some circles I would be laughed out of the Death Metal club for admitting I find them to be good here, but whatever.

You know, the first time I ever listened to this album years ago, I thought it was just pure noise, and have been avoiding Cryptopsy ever since. But just today, I decided to give it another chance, and I guess I've been desensitized enough to "pure noise" that it just sounds like the perfect death metal album now. Go figure.

Lord Worm is an animal. I remember seeing them live years ago and Lord Worm and some fans actually started eating all these worms during the show..
I should dig that album up and give it a listen, it’s rare there’s a brutal death metal album as good as that one.
