    Bring on the EMP. I, for one, look forward to once again stretching dried skins across frames, stringing gut over resonant cavities, and yelling with abandon, to create unique and ephemeral musical experiences recorded only in the hearts and minds of my tribespeople (unless someone keeps a spreadsheet). It may lead to my exile, or even death by stoning, but such is my love for music.

    That Vortex was a joke. I've no real hard feelings about those guys, but I feel that their petty obsession with that stupid spreadsheet completely killed a pretty cool metal community.

    Yore.
    Give him a break, he's an old man!
    There is supposed to be a new KK's Priest album in the mixing stage, which reminds me I really should listen to the first one again. I wonder if they'll bash out this new Priest record, since its already written and mostly recorded, and then get KK back.

    Just wait until we drop our MF-approved spreadsheet of possibly good albums we didn't have time to listen to this year. That'll make a splash.

    I stopped by there recently but it's been months before that. I use my school district's Google account and currently use a work issued laptop so certain cites are blocked like porn (😆)and Reddit of all things. So, it's just not convenient and as I'm always saying, I'm pretty lazy. I switched programs this and year and  my class is in a community college so I'm not on a public school work PC so I actually can go to Vortex now but haven't bothered much. I used to check in on their top 10. I'll prolly do that towards the end of the year to see what stuff on their list I've missed. 
    Also, I couldn't get into rating albums constantly. I got on with a few them OK but overall found it an insular, rather snark good ole boy's club. Never really felt the vibe. 
  11. Thanks

    Oh, the fucking spreadsheet. I had forgotten how dumb it was and how obsessed they were as if they could scientifically and objectively determine what was good and right.
    Thanks again GG for fucking it over.

    I actually like it-but it is fairly subdued. It may still make the cut tho.
    Something about Halford's porky Santa Clause look was annoying. I was hoping he's at least make an attempt to resurrect the Metal God of days of ore.

    Those words are, umm, prophetic.
    But where is the pop music going to come from? If an EMP has wiped out data storage and, of course, streaming services (quicker that can come, the better) then we'll be left with the vinyl currently to hand. If it hasn't melted. We have no pop on vinyl, other than The Beatles. My wife likes jazz. Which is like being stuck in an elevator for all eternity, but there's only about a dozen LPs. Many times less than the metal cache. 
    New product idea: lead lined box and DAP combo. To keep at least some music and means to play it air-gapped and safe from either nuclear devastation or solar flare.
    ...although I was being optimistic and assuming there will not be a nuclear holocaust, just general breakdown due to constant barrage of extreme weather events, crops ruined, fresh water compromised.
    Thanos had it right.

    The sun is setting on the first generation of metal. 
    I wonder if, in a hundred years, they'll be remembered as anything more than a novelty (there will likely be a record of the music, but will anyone actually still listen to and enjoy it?). When our great grandkids are fighting it out in Mad Max style arenas for water tokens.
    In my early morning ponderings today I was thinking it would be a good idea to get some kind of bicycle generator that can charge a DAP for when the collapse comes. More reliable than a solar charger.
    Also, for all my whinging about vinyl, it is still the only commonly available method of physically generating music directly from a medium. You can hand crank a turntable and put one of those cones up against it to amplify what the needle reads. Or a bicycle powered stereo system. Has to be built to last and passed down generations so the simpler the better. 
    We might be headed back to Edison phonographs.
    I think there is a market in apocalypse proof music formats.

    Killing Joke - Outside The Gate   ...finally going properly down the KJ rabbithole. I hadn't heard this before and I love how art-rock and sarcastic it gets.

    Well they are 60 year old men with families 'n shit. (probably not Danny 'cause he's not the most attractive man I've ever seen) It's gotta be hard to live your life as a starving underground metal musician living on the road out of a van when you're 50 or 60 and have dependents and therefore likely a real job which you'd prefer not to lose. Extreme metal is a young man's game and a band like NA is not exactly a cash cow. I think we'll be seeing a lot more "extreme" underground metal bands (black-death-thrash) breaking up or deciding not to continue on into their golden years now that they're mostly all 50 or 60. It's a different story when your band is mainstream successful and generates some actual income and you can afford to fly in and out of venues for your shows.
