No matter how much good **** the modern metal scene puts out it will never recreate the glorious bull**** that a bunch of idiot mulletheads put out cause they thought it was cool. You ever hear NME?

Nah, I haven't but that album sounds dope. I've been looking for more first wave Black Metal, and I think I read somewhere that Fenriz didn't start taking Black Metal seriously till he heard Tormentor.

Oh damn I think Focus by Cynic is starting to hit for me. Heard plenty metal albums where they weld some other softer genre onto metal and it can be fun but the issue is usually that it still feels arbitrary to weld the two together but Focus feels like it has a certain verisimilitude between the death metal and jazz fusion that makes it much more compelling. It's too early to tell but I think this album might be ****ing cool as hell.

Alright I'm retracting my hot take on Mercenary being the best Bolt Thrower album cause Those Once Loyal really is just perfect and addictive. Every single song ****ing slaps and I want to do nothing but put every single song on repeat. And a Bolt Thrower album about WW1 is just what a Bolt Thrower album should be about.

A Bolt Thrower craze at the same time I was listening to Dan Carlin's Blueprint for Armageddon podcast on WW1 made for a perfect storm to become obsessed with Those Once Loyal, which is all about WW1, the perfect Bolt Thrower war.

At this exact moment, the song "Greatest Hits" by Sublime is playing in Winamp on my computer. My current playlist is way too large to post here 1,282 songs. Ive actually got 2,359 MP3s on my machine, but only about half of them are worth listening to on an ongoing basis.

Bolt Thrower is most of what I listen to these days. I think they're my favorite metal band now and not too far off from the Ramones maybe as my favorite band in general. They both hit similar buttons in my brain with high energy iterations on one simple, infectious, core sound that makes me just as happy putting the same album on repeat or marathoning multiple albums. They're just Batlord crack.
