Speaking of underrated awesome albums, Abremelin's self-titled is definitely worth a purchase.

I think that's the point; it's an oldies tour.

Oldies tours I'm down with, just not when the oldies suck now. Morbid Angel sucked a huge bag of dicks when I saw them last year. CC is decent enough live, I guess.

Comparing it to the big 4 Megadeth and Slayer may not be doing anything good with their new material but they can at least still play the poo poo out of their back catalog.

Can someone recommend something in the vein of Acid Bath? The tempo changes, the vocals of Dax and Sammy, and the atmosphere set by the lyrics and the sludgeness of the music was such a perfect combination for me. Was there anyone else like Acid Bath?

Fake edit: to be clear I have listen to all of Dax's projects.

Slightly more psychedelic in nature, but you might like maudlin of the Well. It also has the abrupt style changes, bizarre lyrics and a sludginess about it.

Soilent Green, Harvey Milk, 16, Mistress, Today is the Day. You might also like Twitching Tongues, Ringworm, Integrity, etc. though that's getting more into hardcore territory. But they're all coming from a similar place.

I saw them last Friday with Aborted - I would say only go to see Vader if you really like them. I loved every minute of Aborted but thought that at 75 minutes, Vader's set was maybe a little too long. Having said that, my friend is a huge Vader fan and he thought it was fantastic. They're great at what they do and played a solid set.

Also, he interviewed both bands - Aborted is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpKOYKDgrfs and Vader should be up soon at wwww.metalrecusants.com

I saw Vektor last night. It was poorly promoted but it was a great bar show and half the people there were in bands that played, which made hanging out more fun. Vektor is awesome live and I can't wait to see them again.

Solid recommendations, but I would add Dark Quarterer. They're an underappreciated Italian band who've been around since the mid '70s, released a masterpiece of an album in 1987 (with horrible production), and just re-recorded it for the 25th anniversary. Keep in mind, the singer is 59 years old on this track.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yslnrLazl_8

gently caress yes, Dark Quarterer are awesome. Saw 'em live in... 2010, must have been, and they kicked all manner of rear end.

On the thrash recommendations front, there's been pages of perfectly good stuff posted, but as far as I can see no Nekromantheon? This must be fixed. You might like this if you like, say, the way Slayer and Sepultura sounded in the 1980s. But these guys are barely old enough to shave and this is a 2012 release:

You bet! And yeah, he is a monster. If you haven't heard his previous band (and now current band again hooray) Augury, you should. They're a lot more..."progressive" rather than "technical," but excellent stuff too. I swear, 90% of the world's quality technical death metal comes from Quebec. He's not quite as firmly at the forefront in the mix as he is for Beyond Creation, but his skills are still showcased (particularly in the intro to this song:)

One of the best shows I ever saw was Augury opening for Quo Vadis back in 2007ish. Forest pulled double duty on bass that night and it was insanely good.

Also, listen to Quo Vadis.

A message to Toronto, ON - Canada from Enslaved:

We simply can't believe it; we're trapped in a blizzard at the US/CAN border near Winnipeg. We've been here for a full day now-meaning there is no chance of making tomorrow's show (Feb. 19th) at The Opera House in Toronto; even if the weather should turn around dramatically during the next few hours. We're completely devastated as we sit on the bus waiting it out. We can't believe we'll miss what was for sure going to be one of the very highlights of this tour. – Ivar.

Enslaved express their sincere apologies to everyone in Toronto who was looking forward to the show.

My condolences to TDot goons.

I just saw them this past Friday in Calgary and I have to agree that it was an incredible show, but I was unable to get hype for the 3 opening bands. I guess Royal Thunder was pretty cool because its uncommon to see a female bass/vocalist.
