Not sure why this one popped into my head again recently, but that sludgy intro 🤤

Memories of a very fun holiday around this time last year - I'd decided to try this album after avoiding it for a long time and I wondered why I'd waited so long

IIRC this album slots in between Years Past Matter (maybe one of my favourites) and Dimensional Bleedthrough (also great)

Litany of Regrets is a very interesting song, but perhaps not the right place to start

These guys pretty much are the creators of Metal

Check out Live in Japan, one of the best live albums ever


Deep Purple




During the 70s, these guys blew Led Zepplin out of the water, and im a zep fan like everyone else

I missed this thread... Let me look through and update my metal play list. I'll try to drop any that are missed that I like as well.

And just want to say Howard Jones is my goated metal vocalist

YouTube keeps recommending me videos that have like no views or came out 2 hours ago :dahell:

including this:

like a cross between Dream Theater and AAL (first album especially)

Not a huge fan of this band as a whole, but this track is dope AF to me.


mmm yes
The lead singer and primary songwriter of the band is known by the moniker "Vessel". Vessel and II are the only members of the band who have been credited as performers on Sleep Token's studio albums. II is also the only member apart from Vessel who has been given songwriting credits.

The group's focus on anonymity and visual style have been likened to similar practices employed by Ghost, Slipknot, and Gwar. Slipknot's frontman Corey Taylor has praised the band's image and artistry, comparing their approach to the one Slipknot took in the band's early days.

In 2017, Sleep Token's then-new label Basick Records published a description of the band which read, "A band that goes above and beyond simply writing and playing music, Sleep Token are said to be "the mortal representatives of the ancient deity known only as 'Sleep', led by the masked and cloaked figure appointed 'Vessel' ... the master creator behind the music."

I also really enjoy when bands take their theatrics seriously, like Ghost or Portal or Imperial Triumphant (who I will definitely bring up again later)
