Apparently the whole of Psycroptic's new album was streaming for free here: http://www.guitarworld.com/exclusive-psycroptic-streaming-new-album-inherited-repression Can anyone access it? I can't believe I missed it, I'm really looking forward to that album.

Just got some signed Woods of Ypres vinyls in the mail. Turns out Mr. Gold signed his name in gold ink. Nice touch.

fappenmeister posted:There's a band named Timeghoul, and they have had some early releases of theirs reissued on Dark Descent. I'd never heard of them until last week, but I bought the album anyway. Timeghoul is very cool. Honestly, I have never checked out their lyrics. Far as I know, they only released 2 demos. Def check them out if you can.

Radio Paranoia posted:Also, for those who asked about Wildernessking a while back, their label, Antithetic Records are running a fundraiser for the vinyl release. It's basically a donation-preorder thing and it's a pretty nice way to support the band. I really loving dig Wildernessking. They have a nice touch. I'm totally pledging once my paycheck comes in. I think this is a neat idea.

This barely fits here, but Metallica is hosting a 2 day festival where they will play the black album in its entirety the first night (yay?) and Ride The Lightning the second night (yay!). But the hilarious part is that so far there's only like 2 metal bands (3 if you count Avenged Sevenfold) out of like 15 announced, and they're The Sword and Liturgy:quote:Arctic Monkeys • Avenged Sevenfold http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2012/02/orion_music_mor.html This combined with the "lifestyle" part of the festival makes me think this is almost certainly just Lars concocting a scheme where young people will tell him he is cool and hip and not an old guy at all.

http://metaltalk.net/news2012/2012585.phpquote:MetalTalk.net have just been informed by a reliable source that Sharon Osbourne has fired Bill Ward. If this turns out to be true, as fully expected, then it won't go down well with the Metal community. There is so much wrong with this, its unbelievable. My question isnt why Bill was given the shaft, or even why they dont bring on Vinnie, but why is Sharon in any position to fire Bill Ward? Seems like this whole reunion was being treated like a vehicle for Ozzy primarily.

Hahaha, what a bitch. Not a huge Sabbath fan but they are legend and you don't gently caress with legends. Last week I heard he was talking about "getting respect" whatever that meant and that leads to this. Ozzy needs to just give it up. And isn't Iommi pretty much in the throes of death?

My question was really more like "can Ozzy even perform a 45 minute set without forgetting where he is and possibly soiling himself?" I'm just not sure the guy qualifies as technically conscious at this point.

We hung with them in 'Frisco for a week. The chick said Ozzy's mind was basically fried. And that was over a decade ago. And producers/managers/who-the-gently caress-ever writing an artist's/band's songs are not unheard of, even in metal. I knew the Drummer from Flotsam And Jetsam around the same time, he said their manager had been writing most of their material for a few years at that point....

For me, this is only ok if the outsider was once a member of the band, such as in the cases of Finntroll or Immortal. Otherwise, the band should man up and write its own music, at least the music it records.

Ozzy was apparently able to perform admirably at Hellfest when he played it in the not so distant past. And considering some of the states I've seen people in 20min before they're due to play, mental faculties aren't really 100% required.

I can't believe that loving oval office is shoving her cancerous rear end into what will be the last hurrah for Sabbath (assuming Iommi survives). I'm reading Iommi's book now and the picture he paints of bill ward is one of a guy you could not possibly have a problem with. If he ain't behind the drums in a reunion I'll just have to be thankful I saw the original lineup once in my life and skip this one. gently caress you sharon. Spergio Leone posted:Precisely what I was thinking when I read that post. I can't believe it's been that long, that Jack and Kelly are all grown up and that Ozzy is likely even more of a wreck. Supposedly he's a lot more with it now that he fired a doctor who was literally writing the guy a prescription to counteract the effects of another prescription, and then writing one to counteract THAT one. I think I read he was on something like 20 different meds and over half of them were to fight side effects of other ones. I guess now that he's off all that poo poo he's back to what you'd expect a lunatic rock star to be like after 40 years of coke and booze, and not a stroke victim like he was on TV.

I saw Black Sabbath something like 5 or 6 years ago with the original line up, and Bill Ward was jamming the gently caress out of his kit. gently caress Sharon.

I really think this is an issue of Bill's disinterest which probably correlates equally with compensation as well as confidence in his physicality. On a less dramatic note I posted a preview of the new Christian Mistress LP since Relapse was kind enough to give my team an advance copy.

Have any reasons been given for Ward not being involved? Did he do anything to warrant a "firing"? I love Sharon Osbourne's personality outside of Ozzy/Sabbath related poo poo, but this is just ridiculous.

Bill Ward's son posted a long comment: http://heavyrocktheplaylist.blogspot.com/2012/02/black-sabbath-bill-wards-son-aron-ward.html From his description, it sounds like the band had a lot of work already done towards writing new material. It sucks that this is all in jeopardy now. Also the Black Sabbath facebook page has turned off user submissions, so a new page has been created http://www.facebook.com/pages/1000000-Black-Sabbath-fans-say-yes-to-Bill-Ward/387229524625706?sk=wall&filter=2

I'll probably drag my roommate up to that, just cause. Orlando and Tampa have been getting a lot of shows this spring (I assume because people know I'm leaving at the end of the year and are STACKING the shows, hah!). Corpse is a fun live show, last time I saw them in Jville, it was a blast. Exhumed are super fun live, really cheesy gore-y fun. I just saw them at MDF and Hellfest and had a blast watching them both times- totally worth it. Look for me- I'm short and blonde and, well, I'll be there.
