Interest check: The Random Metal Album Club?

Trollheart · 12-20-2017, 06:10 PM

I tried The HMAC, Batty tried the DMAC. Both failed, burned over and sank into the swamp. How about a third try?

The idea, in case for some reason you didn't get it from the title, is to choose a metal album randomly and review it in the style of the Album Club. I used to do this in my journal, under the title The Meat Grinder, and used Metal-Archives.com, because they have a facility to select random band, but if anyone wants to use another site (RYM?) go ahead and suggest it.

In principle, though, who would be interested? The difference would be that, theoretically, one week we could be doing Black Metal, the next Avant-Garde, then Power, then Pagan, whatever. Might be interesting.

I'll only go ahead with it if I get say three or more people interested in actually taking part, not just saying "good idea" and then not bothering.

So, anyone up for this?

Sounds like a good way to do a ****ty album one week, a ****ty album the next, and after that a ****ty album.

If you like, I can rename it to The ****ty Metal Album Club?
