Hot Diggity! posted:The new Ghost album is very fun and brings back the rock sax, so it's good, to me. Speaking of that, can anyone at all help my friend and I figure out why the gently caress the piano riff in Pro Memoria that shows up around 1:08 sounds so loving familiar? It's driving us crazy.

Also I firmly believe that everyone should just listen to whatever the gently caress they want. I like poppy riffs, goofy lyrics about satan, and am an absolute sucker for keyboards so I like Ghost, but other people dislike a linear combination of those things so they don't. I vaguely worry that the weird PURITY thing about metal is what attracted nazis to it but

Of all the embarrassing bands I like Ghost is actually one of the better ones I actually listened to/own Christopher Lee's extremely terrible album about Charlemagne, for one thing It's real loving bad you guys but I like listening to the late Christopher Lee say/sing things

Nazzadan posted:Amazing how many songs even on SA's first album are about being broken up with. Tony's been about whining in PM since the very beginning. Like their most standard power metal song is probably like wolf and raven and he loving hates that song. Sometimes I don't think he actually likes the entire genre group he plays in that much.

Yeah it's basically "i wanted to hear him sing goofy lyrics" and he's a fun studio vocalist for sure. He seemed okay on the couple videos of the same performance of master of the universe that i saw on youtube but standard show to show variance and it's harder to tell on a phone video caveats apply on that

remigious posted:New Gloryhammer is extremely cringe to me. Especially knowing that the band is full of racist misogynists. I simply cannot give them another chance. yeah I felt bad knowing about it when clicking but wow his voice is just wrong for it. also lol the way i originally learned about everything was when their very first song with him dropped and i listened to it and was like what the gently caress is with tom's voice and went down the rabbit hole

If I were to say best overall, I'm a shameless Powerwolf stan do I'd go with Atilla/Karsten but Tom is really good. I just think the guy they picked to replace Tom belongs in more of a Kamelot type band where they do things slower sometimes and generally more seriously than a fast and funny band.
