Pungent Stench - Been Caught Buttering, Austria 1991. I feel like this album gets unfairly passed over. Absolutely one of the best death metal records of 1991. And I say that knowing there were some real bangers released in 1991. Massacra - Enjoy the Violence, French death/thrash 1991 Parler Anglais ou mourir? I liked this album well enough in '85, but it hasn't aged like a fine Bordeaux. More like 40 year old camembert.4 points -

Morningrise was where I discovered Opeth. Love it to pieces, but BWP is their pinnacle which extends through the twins of Deliverance and Damnation. @markm, id hesitate to reconsider your back catalog rule with any other band, but Opeth is different. Everything they did from the first album through Ghost Reveries is worth your time. My Arms and Orchid both have some real gems. The Baying of the Hounds, Face of Melinda, The Moor... just so many great tunes.3 points

Coffin Curse - The Continuous Nothing, Chile. Where the hell's Blivvington gotten off to anyway? Wasn't he telling me that Death Metal Promotion channel got shut down? Well it seems he's back now with a new red logo. Unless it was a different YT channel Blivvie was talking about, I can't remember now. Obscurial - Heretic, Malaysia. Digging this one.

Bon jour Ari. Every morning you come and I think maybe I should listen to some French bands. Never realized how many French metal bands there actually were 'til you showed up here. I've noticed tonight that all 3 of these bands are from various towns in the eastern part of France, not far from Switzerland. Would you say this is probably just a coincidence, or are the people from eastern French just more grindy for the most part? I know they have to grind the mustard to make dijon (the only type of mustard I'll eat) maybe that grinding mentality has spilled over into their music. You're down in the southwest part of France near Bordeaux right? I love looking at European maps and seeing all the various names of places we've adopted here in America. I see you have a Bayonne over there in Aquitaine, we have one too right here in New Jersey, also a port city. And even "Jersey" is the name of a place in France. We're practically brothers! It's funny my ex's father was French so she used to always ask if we could go to France one day. And I always told her no because I never had any desire to see France. We hear stories here in the states about how the French hate Americans because we come over there acting all loud and pompous and entitled and uncouth and idiotic and none of us speak a word of French, we just expect you guys to cater to us. Shit, I don't want to be one of those stupid Americans. I've always wanted to see Spain or Greece or Scandinavia or even the UK could be cool, but never France. But now that I've found all these French bands I've become a little bit curious about France. Not gonna ask my ex though, she got tired of waiting for me and finally made it to France with her sister a couple of years ago.

Dude this album is awesome, I fucking love it. And not just because big Ed and the boys are from Red Bank New Jersey. Although that helps, and Ed was after all a founding member of both The Atomic Bitchwax and Monster Magnet, two of my favorite non-extreme rock bands. Even though Ed only guests on three tracks here, it's still a good album, I'm sold. Solarized - Neanderthal Speedway, Red Bank NJ 1999 Unida - Coping With the Urban Coyote, another cool stoner rock album from 1999 in much the same vein, featuring John Garcia of Kyuss fame on vox. You're gonna get me on a whole stoner thing now.2 points -

Thanks, I'll give it a spin along with the others. And thanks @navybsn for the recs. I'll add those to the list. I'm sure there will be some more awesome stuff to find in addition to that Unanimated album I'm currently enjoying.2 points

I'd say if you're looking at Unanimated don't skip out on Ancient God of Evil. Great album if not that similar to Dissection. Also, for a more modern equivalent, check out these guys: Ninkharsag https://vendetta-records.bandcamp.com/album/the-dread-march-of-solemn-gods2 points

One of their best albums. Sealed With a Fist is such a banger. Thanks @GoatmasterGeneral. I'm really digging Unanimated - In Light of Darkness. Missing some of the speed of Somberlain but it has those evil riffs I love. Light's Bane is one of my all time fav albums. Still gotta check the Necrophobic album. Thanks @SurgicalBrute. I'll check all these out. It will take several days but I'm well stocked for now. Got a craving for that Dissection sound.2 points

I'll second this suggestion. It's not quite as catchy as Dissection were at their best, but what it loses in that department it more than makes up for in depth and quieter shifts in the guitars. For me at least, that creates a ton of replayability. NP: Fantasma - Abomination of Human Pestilence ▶︎ Abomination of Human Pestilence | Fantasma | Narbentage Produktionen (bandcamp.com) This one's growing on me. It's only an EP, but it shows a lot of potential.2 points -

NP: Chainsword - Born Triumphant ▶︎ Born Triumphant | Chainsword (bandcamp.com) Polish dm. The expected Bolt Thrower and Vader are in here along with a few tricks to vary things up. Otherwise the album knows what it is and fully embraces the idea that doing something unoriginal extremely well will always beat doing something original poorly. Fans on the subgenre, myself included, will enjoy.2 points -

BIG|BRAVE - A Chaos Of Flowers. There are some beautiful passages here. They are further from metal than ever but that's OK. ENGULFED - Unearthly Litanies of Despair. Nothing out of the ordinary here. Noice, but. MÆRE - ...And The Universe Keeps Silent. Spare, thoughtful music.2 points

Alright now this is starting to make sense, I didn't realize you were talking abut sours either. Don't remember anyone saying anything about sours, we were talking about the hugely popular IPAs and how a lot of them have that citrusy after-taste that I personally don't care for. They're drinkable in a pinch, and some are better than others, but I don't seek them out. Now sours are a completely different story. When a bunch of us went to the Metal Threat festival at Reggie's in Chicago back in July '19, one of our mates who happened to be from the windy city took us all (wasn't his shout but he suggested the place) to this burger joint called Kuma's Corner that had all of their burgers named after various rock and metal bands. And they had shitloads of different beers on tap. I made the mistake of ordering one of those sours since I'd never tried one before. I took one sip and almost spit it back out, had to flag down the chick to take it away and bring me something else. Never again, that was truly some nasty shit. Don't know how the normies can even pretend to like it man. You don't really say "blimey" in real life do ya Doc? That was just for poetic effect, right?

Yo JT can you explain to me sir how these Whiskey Rebel dudes play "southern metal" if they're from fucking Sheboygan, Wisconsin? Can't get much less southern than that unless you go to Alaska. Or is 'southern' just a state of mind? Back in the day our "southern rock" bands were Skynyrd, Hatchet, ABB, MTB and the Outlaws. And even as a New Yorker I loved all that shit. But those bands were all from Florida, Jaw-ja and Carolina. No one would have accepted a "southern" rock band from up north in Yankeeland. Nowadays it seems they have "southern" bands from up north and I even saw one or two you posted that were actually European. What's up widdat? Also I'm mildly curious to try one of these modern post-Udo Accept albums you keep posting just to see what they sound like without Udo. (which one would you recommend I try?) But I never actually do it because I'm sure I'll be disappointed. I only ever liked two Accept albums to begin with even back in their hey-day, R&W and Metal Heart, so I'm not exactly a super-fan. Did see them once at L'amour in '85 though and I have to admit they put on a helluva show. I saw TT Quick a few times a few years before that back when they were a LI club band and I even had their first EP so I'm somewhat familiar with MT, and I don't think I could accept that guy as the front-man for Accept. It's Udo's band dammit. His thick German accent and being just barely over 5 feet tall was part of the appeal. I guess change can be hard for us old guys. Accept - Metal Heart 19852 points -
Ya know, I was thinking you might have a soft spot for those Jersey Monster Magnet indebted stoners being from your neck of the Northeast generally, but wasn't sure if it would be sufficiently punkish enough as I know that's your preference with the genre. For some reason, I never got into Unida, not sure why. I should give them some ear time. Solarized stood along bands with less name reco than Kyuss/Fu/Magnet in my listening like band like Nebula, Sons of Otis, Orange Goblin, etc. But they have that great heavy, skuzz factor. Speaking of punk influence, following that split you posted of Nebula. I definitely enjoy me some Nebular like To the Center that has a punchy heavy psyche meets Stooges vibe, and in a decidedly punkier vein. I still go back to this from time to time :1 point
