Same as the downloaded thread, but for the ones that didn't make the grade.

Visceral Bleeding - Remnants Of Deprivation

Silly and generic blasting death metal. Recommended by a pal here but I couldn't remain open-mined after the first track.

Jacob Miller & Ray 1: Natty Christmas.


nuff sed

Lock-Up - Necropolis Transparent

Blasting by numbers. Really disappointing from them.

I will prob end up as one of the most frequent posters in this thread. Of late :

Immortal Technique "The Martyr" - simply awful
Talbot "Eos", DreamTime "DreamTime LP" & Ice Dragon "The Burl, The Earth, The Aether" - all for being half decent doom/stoner/sludge musically but vocally shite and not living up to the standard of the music.

Piarevaracien - Торны Шлях

It was my token Belarusian album for quite some time despite not listening to it, however when I got round to it, it was just a bit too lacklustre for my liking.

That Metallica/Lou Reed abortion.

I really like that album, had it for years.

I couldn't get past what I saw as the cliches. Plus, I generally really don't like that style anyway, so it was unlikely to survive long with me.

I don't generally like Death Metal in general so why I do like it is even more of a mystery.

The Eight Hands For Kali album, I think. Loved the EP but the album was fairly shit.

I've just deleted shitloads of stuff off my MP3 player, but can't remember what any of it was, sorry.

Not good enough. Naughty step, 30mins.

DL'ed out of morbid curiosity, or..?

I'm not even going to steal it on principle...

stealing it = partial endorsement of the LP...I refuse to do this....

I've heard a couple of minutes' worth. I foresee being able to say the same on my deathbed.

Hmmm, this week has seen the culling of:

Nightwish: Angels Fall First, Century Child (I never listen to them, and the others are better)
Overkill: I Hear Black, W.F.O., The Killing Kind, From the Underground and Below, Necroshine, Coverkill, Bloodletting, Killbox 13, ReliXIV, Immortalis (2007)
Opeth: The entire discography. I've tried too many times. They're not for me and I cannot be arsed to try again with them. Any of them.
Nocturnal Rites: The entire discography. But I've just re-D/L'd it cos I was grumpy and musically restless the other day when I deleted them all after being underwhelmed by the first 2 tracks of the debut the other day (despite having had the second album since it came out and liking it). But I hadn't synced up to my pod since and a track came on on shuffle today that was a belter, so will listen to them all again and judge on an album by album basis
Fleshgod Apocolypse: Newest one. Bored of it already. It's lost it's shine.
Myrath: Something about sand. Yeh, it was alright, decent even, but I know I'd never listen to it
Ozzy: Various tracks from Blizzard, Diary, Bark and No Rest... and the majority of Ozzmosis

I think that was all... Oh, I did to Nevermore what I did to Nocturnal Rites (though I kept Dead Heart... cos I've always really liked that) - even down to the random track on the pod! The pod must've known and played a quality tune off of Obsidian Conspiracy, so I re-DL'd that, Godless Endeavour and Dreaming Neon Black cos I know I like them, I was just pissy about tunes the other day. I think the sheer quantity of Overkill that I had pissed me off lol

It wasn't very good.

Some two track EP by an instrumental doom/stoner band called Iron Hills - not bad but not worthy of the precious space on my ever shrinking hard-drive.

Nocturnal Rites: In A Time of Blood and Fire

Perfectly reasonable album, but I'd never listen to it. A tentative start and there's much better stuff on their later albums.
