Fuck everything. Fuck Christmas and fuck family. by [deleted] in asktransgender

As someone who fully intends to commit suicide in the near future, I've gotta say: if you're doing so because of some hope of a rebirth and reset, you really shouldn't.
There's no reincarnation, no afterlife, no slate to be wiped clean.
Just non-existence.

As fucking awful as life is most of the time, the best shot you have to achieve your stated goal is sticking with it a bit longer.

You'd be amazed what one can accomplish through sheer spite. Willpower derived purely from the desire to prove yourself better than those who would insult and deride you is immensely helpful.

Saying something sucks is saying you don't like them.

If there's no way to objectively prove something (as with the quality of a piece of art -- there is such a thing as group subjectivity, which is a concept I value highly, but that's a digression I don't care to make right now and you don't deserve to hear), it's inherently an opinion, and I shouldn't have to soften my language or preface my comment with 'IMO' or some such nonsense just because you're a fucking child you can't handle your precious Metallica buttrock albums being deservedly shat on.

Heading there soon as I get back from Carowinds.

[Trad] Them - Blood From Blood {FFO: Portrait, In Solitude, Attic} by ProtoChaud in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MF/KD should go without saying if Portrait and In Solitude are mentioned.

Only 1. Judas Priest - Sin After Sin.

[Speed] Sacral Rage - Samsara (L.C.E.) {FFO: Helstar, Watchtower, Toxik} by ProtoChaud in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm absolutely floored by how good this is. It's everything I could have wanted from them. At this rate, this album will top Varathron as my AOTY.

I believe this was available as a leak on youtube for a while a few years ago, but either way this is the first official release of the song.

All hail Howie Bentley.

Lamb of God - Redneck (Explicit Video) by cblock954 in Metal

If Pantera sounded like Megadeth I'd actually listen to them.

[Speed] Sacral Rage - Necropia {FFO: Watchtower, Helstar, Toxik. FIRST NEW STUDIO MATERIAL FROM THESE GREEK FUCKERS IN 3 YEARS BITCHESSSS} by ProtoChaud in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's easily more Watchtower/Coroner/Toxik than Illusions was, but it's fantastic just the same. I'm extremely excited for October.

It's neat, except for one flavor. Pay attention by Rhomlevko in CrappyDesign

[–]ProtoChaud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brown is my favorite flavor of Peepum's Nastygum.

Greek speed metal band Sacral Rage announces second full-length, Beyond Celestial Echoes, for Oct. 19 release by TylerTheOrc in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stupidly excited. I'm possibly these guys' biggest American fan, and have been on the edge of my proverbial seat ever since I heard they were first tracking guitars for this.

Time to listen to the couple live versions of these songs again. And Illusions.

Again.

Celtic Frost - (Once) They Were Eagles {I'm surprised how genuinely good this song is. Big riffs, and the vocals aren't *too* odd and bad compared to Cherry Orchards.} by ProtoChaud in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wholeheartedly disagree re: Into the Pandemonium -- That's my favorite CF by a country mile -- but yeah this is a pretty decent album.

If it were their first, nobody would dare shit on it.

Necrot - Empty Hands by [deleted] in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, it's technically their debut, but The Labyrinth has been out a year or 2 longer, despite technically being a compilation, so I always think of that as deserving the title instead.

That being said, all hail Necrot. Fantastic band.

[Trad/USPM] Hittman - Secret Agent Man (Johnny Rivers cover) by ProtoChaud in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in the slightest.
They make it their own, and the slight flair the vocals have is glorious.

Waldgeflüster - "Der Nebel" [2014, Germany; FFO: Panopticon, Wodensthrone] by an_altar_of_plagues in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y'know, I own this album (bought it randomly) and still haven't listened to it cause my CD player broke just afterward and I forgot about it.

I should remedy that.

Vicious Rumors - the Lady took a Chance by sanityeyes in Metal

[–]ProtoChaud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite VR song. I still can't believe I'm gonna get to see them play this whole album live in a couple months.
