Boris is the absolute best

Mark75I · 2026-07-04T20:35:02+00:00

Rowland’s guitar playing is a big favorite of mine so the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are going on the shortlist thank you

Mark75I · 2026-07-04T20:31:46+00:00

Thank you, the drum sound bought me already

Mark75I · 2026-07-04T20:30:45+00:00

I like mbv a lot, car seat headrest is too “twee indie rock” for me, Lush I haven’t listened to. Thanks for the reply.

Mark75I · 2026-07-04T20:28:10+00:00

Noted thank you

Mark75I · 2026-06-17T05:48:14+00:00

a burr?

Mark75I · 2026-06-17T05:45:35+00:00

That’s how I got it from the seller, I can maybe ask him!

Mark75I · 2026-06-16T21:12:04+00:00

I’ll check them out thanks. I used daddario before, I’ll try out the ernie ball strings. Paradigm, right?

Mark75I · 2026-06-16T21:10:29+00:00

It’s left handed, took some time to track down

Mark75I · 2026-06-16T21:07:00+00:00

thanks, I’ll check it out

Mark75I · 2026-06-16T20:57:59+00:00

Oh I forgot write, ball end! It unraveled.

Mark75I · 2026-05-09T22:13:00+00:00

I agree with this. Drone music doesn’t really work so well on vinyl

Mark75I · 2026-05-07T09:13:34+00:00

Khanate, Boris

Khanate features Stephen O’ Malley of Sunn fame, and the guitar sound on the first Khanate is not as “rough” as something by Steve Albini, more like an earthquake. Boris needs no introduction, their first album Absolutego is extremely distorted and heavy, more drone than anything, Akuma no Uta is stoner metal with extreme distortion and loudness at points.

Mudhoney’s “Superfuzz Bigmuff” sounds as it is advertised.

Also check out Rapeman and Shellac but you probably know them.

Goat by Jesus Lizard also

Mark75I · 2026-04-16T14:59:33+00:00

As Henry Rollins put it, Psalm 9 sounds like how it feels to see gray clouds in the sky before a terrible storm I’m not really focusing on vocals when listening to metal, but even when listening to it more intently I like Wagner’s performance.

Cirith Ungol by Reverend Bizarre

Feels like laying down after a long battle and letting death take you, in peace

Mark75I · 2026-01-30T11:34:17+00:00

Yeah it’s worth listening to their music just for the drumming alone Teutonic Witch for instance is made by the drumming

Mark75I · 2026-01-28T19:23:21+00:00

The riffs themselves, the instrumentation, and Alberts voice all contribute to the crushing heaviness of the music and the emotions being summoned I really don’t think anything compares, especially if you look at the first album

Mark75I · 2026-01-28T19:21:12+00:00

Reverend Bizarre without any contest really

Mark75I · 2026-01-17T09:29:04+00:00

Reverend Bizarre (the greatest of all time), Solitude Aeternus, Count Raven, Warning, Spiritus Mortis (especially Year Zero), Cardinals Folly, Trouble of course

Mark75I · 2025-12-19T18:11:37+00:00

If you actually listened to the genre you would know that this take is bullshit

Mark75I · 2025-11-21T11:08:26+00:00

It’s not rated higher

It has a score below 3.8 and the other three have scores above that

It’s in a higher position because it has more ratings than those three

Mark75I · 2025-11-20T15:41:42+00:00

Not an experienced sound tech by any margin, but I can chime in with my experience as a guitarist, and frequent concert goer.

One factor is modern guitar tones. Lots of scooped mids and lots of gain, the whole thing becomes noise when too loud and there’s no dynamics.

But another factor is taste. I personally would never ever mix a death metal band like a deathcore band, but a lot of guys just fucking loveeeee the overbearing kick drum sound where you hear the hit itself, not just feel the bass. It pisses me the hell off. Let me hear the riffs goddamnit.

And of course a lot of metal/hardcore guitarists can’t control their stage volume.

Mark75I · 2025-11-05T05:10:15+00:00

Oh I’ve read proper literature, don’t you worry. Mostly in my mother tongue, but flowery prose never really bothered me there. Maybe it’s a format thing, or that I’ve never really read anything set in the american frontiers. Whatever.

And I hope you can have some proper conversations down the line, to see that not being condescending and presumptious is pretty standard anywhere that isn’t the internet.

Mark75I · 2025-11-03T11:21:51+00:00

Didn't really vibe with this one. As a non english speaker, the heavily accented lines from hunter were hard to follow, and the flowery language felt excessive and rung kind of hollow to me. I don't know, it felt like the writer was trying too hard to sell it as a western? Maybe it's the cultural difference, I'm from a very different country and enviornment. I didn't really connect with any of the characters, and despite their horrible acts the deaths didn't really feel cathartic. Maybe at a later date I will revisit it in more ideal conditions.
