John Dyer Baizley (of Baroness) is a fantastic artist. He's done the art for all of Baroness's albums as well as several other bands, including Kylesa, Black Tusk, and Skeletonwitch. This wiki page lists albums he's done art for, but he's got some other great stuff around the net too.

VELOUR SPACESUIT posted:So, no one has said anything about THIS yet so... yeah... NEW MELVINS. TWO NEW MELVINS RELEASES. AND A TOUR. Yeah I'm catching them down in NOLA on 4/21, can't wait. Also echoing the HOF love. I thought Snakes wasn't really as good as their previous stuff despite my soft spot for Frost Hammer, but this album sounds like it's going to be great. I can't wait to destroy my roommate's speakers with Serums of Liao.

For everyone who loves Baizley's artwork, he has a blog at http://www.aperfectmonster.com/. There isn't a whole lot there yet but hopefully we'll start seeing more before too long.

nuncle jimbo posted:gently caress yeah. The other day I was even wondering what the hell was taking so long - best explanation ever. I take they're playing some new stuff on the tour? The first time I read that as March Into The Sea and my head nearly exploded from the idea of a Baroness Pelican cover.

degauss posted:Actually, it's called March to the Sea AND March Into the Sea. One of them is the 20-minute single version, the other is the 12-minute album version. Can't remember which is which though. Yea, that's the one I was thinking of. I haven't listened to The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw in too long. I think it's time to go remedy that.

My CD copy of Dopesmoker came in today. This thing is loving gorgeous. If you haven't picked up the album you really should. I'm not into collecting vinyl, but this CD had just as much love poured into it as the LPs did. The packaging has some nice embossing on the figures in the cover art and the inside of the album is a picture of the same setting but done at night. The insert has the riff chart Astrotrain posted earlier with a neat photo of the band on the reverse side. I'm also pleased as punch with the shirt I got with it, but the poster was regrettably folded and creased due to being mailed in a small package. Still though, this was a great buy and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who's even remotely into stoner metal. Oh, and I guess the music's pretty good too  It sucks that Sonic Titan never got a studio version released, but the live recording of Holy Mountain is fantastic.

The bass sounds slightly more prominent and everything sounds a bit sharper and clearer, but other than that they didn't gently caress with it too much. This one definitely strikes me as being louder though, which is always a good thing. The spacey solo at ~39 minutes in sounds incredible. ETA: I forgot to mention that the riff chart is on the back of the shirt Geddy Krueger fucked around with this message at 00:40 on May 4, 2012 |

The two live videos I saw of that song did it no justice. Can't wait for July.

Handen posted:I'm probably going to see Black Mastiff open for Ancients open for Boris at Sled Island in Calgary in a week or two, so what's the most accessible path you guys could recommend for getting into Boris? I've only listened to Pink, and I enjoy it, but I know they've got dozens of other albums, I just have no idea where to start. Start with the 2002 Heavy Rocks (orange cover), that should be right up your alley.

Pitchfork is streaming another new Baroness track, "March to the Sea". It's not what I was expecting based on the videos I've seen on YouTube, but I can't say I'm not excited as hell for this album.

I haven't seen this band mentioned in the thread yet, so let's talk Horn of the Rhino. They're a Spanish doom band with thrash elements and they're heavy as gently caress. Definitely check these guys out, they just released a new album this year and it owns. Songs are linked because of  album artSpeaking In Tongues Grengus Brought Back Also, Frank Caskelot posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6pEutFdZ6Q this owns, thanks for sharing.

Juaguocio posted:It's much closer to Sleep than HoF's later material, and also happens to be one of the most devastating collections of riffs ever put to tape. I've heard good things about the reissue, too- folks are saying that the bass and drums are much clearer, without compromising any of the power. I got my copy of it today and this description is spot on. Pick this up if you're into kickass riffs.

I guess it's not really that strange, but I did hear the beginning of "Vinum Sabbathi" in The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia, which gave me the chance to introduce a friend to Electric Wizard

I was also at the Sleep show and it was indeed great. I was hoping they would play Antarcticans Thawed but the set we got was excellent so I won't complain. Also, thanks to the folks who recommended Etymotic earplugs. I picked up a pair and wore them to the show and they worked really well.
