And great records by Killing Joke, Satyricon, Cult of Luna all in the last few weeks, with Ministry, Red Hot Chili Peppers still to come in the next few.
Add that to great albums by Devin Townsend, In Flames, Revolting Cocks and Bleeding Through released earlier in the year… 2006 has been a fucking ace year for heavy music
Oh, Deftones and AFI are putting one out as well! hurrah!

That’ll be fucking ace I reckon…I have Nemesis Divina and Volcano but I think the new album is even better. Reminds me of Heartwork in a black metally kind of way :)

I saw Satyricon support Pantera many moons ago and wasn’t really impressed at all, but I saw them on the Volcano tour and they were fucking brilliant. Really, really good live band.
Get Rebel Extravaganza too!

Yes! They do drone on for ages with crap on most of their albums, but you still get some of the best Metal songs ever written when they stop fucking around and just play.
Except on 10,000 days. There isn’t one real stand out track on the whole thing. All pretty boring to be honest.

Yeah i find 10,000 Days pretty dull and it’s quite annoying they seem to be recycling parts of songs they used on other albums.Roll on the next A Perfect Circle album!

Wings for Marie parts 1 and 2
The Pot
Right in Two
All Amazing
Intension and Lost Keys / Rosetta Stoned are a wee bit unspectacular though.
Wings for Marie part 2 could be the best thing they’ve done.

Got it as well. Not a classic. Decent, but they could do with some new ideas and maybe a more original sounding guitar and bass. Solid, but has not been worth the wait.
The case is very cool though with the lenses (yes I bought it).

The thing I noticed first about it was how Maynard doesn’t really stand out and after listening to the album about 3 or 4 times I couldn’t hum a a single song…
After a few more listens and the album has a chance to seep into your subconsious and now I think its great. I think its something you have to give time to grow on you.
For me, its worth the time and effort, but I can understand why people are left feeling a little underwhelmed by it.

7 songs spread across 9 tracks and two throwaway tracks.
Have you notice Tool albums have less actual “songs” on them per album ?
Undertow - 10 songs
Aenima - 9 actual SONGS
Lateralus - 8 songs
10,000 days - 7 songs
probably just me :D
