^ That first Danzig album is great!

Been digging back into my stuff. I've come to the conclusion that early Stratovarius was a lot of fun: solid mix of European and American power metal ideas. They went boring and symphonic later on after the early 2000's, but their first few albums have some charm.

Yeah, it's easily my favorite of his (Though the second and third albums are fantastic as well.). Just finished listening to Danzig 4, which is good, but definitely a drop in quality from the first three.

They're still my favorite band, pretty much. If, as I'd imagine, you're more a heavy music kinda guy, then the albums The Insulated World (the one above) and Dum Spiro Spero would be the one's I'd recommend checking out. The latter of the two has a lot of almost death metal like material, but with a Dir En Grey twist.

That's a fire album but I can't cosign them before Timo became their singer.

My metal tastes definitely trend predominantly towards psychedelic verging on rock these days. Or straight up falsetto traditional.

I.e. a frequent play:

The only genre I'm sick to death of that I used to really enjoy is operatic doom. Every time Candlemass comes on my mix while I'm driving it's so irritating, like ugh not this ****ing guy again.

Children of Bodom made a new single.

Not sure how much I care about this, but I guess it sounds better than much of their newer material has.

I'm not really sure what to call this. Blackened doom, maybe? Whatever it is, it lurks in the shadows, waiting to strangle the life out of you when you least expect it.

PS- You stay engaged through the whole album, that last track will kick your ass into the next dimension. What a ****ing ride.
