Re: Whatcha Eatin'?

yeah I'll suck your parisian carrot allright.
I was only using a figure of speech... unfortunately there's not much to see in real life. Parisian carrots are only about half an inch long. :( The good part is, you can fit a lot of them in your mouth at once. If you really like carrots. BTW Iceni, Ye Mighty Goat Qveen might be the least appetizing person ever... you're wet-blanketing the food thread!

Really? Ghouly puts up vegetable bukkake and I'm the one who's being unappetizing?

Re: Whatcha Eatin'?

I didn't have anything except a cup of tea and a handful of nuts. (stop it) But tonight I'm doing a roast of pork, rolled and stuffed with cinnamon, apples, spices, wild rice which I'll eat around, a demi glace sauce, and some ginger maple carrots.
Did you enjoy your handful of nuts? ;).... I kid ghouly haha. I'm starting the morning with a cup of tea.

You don't even eat rice? There's no gluten in it... Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

I can understand cutting back on grain foods, especially given the impact that genetic modification has had on their nutritional value, but I wouldn't give them up completely. I've stopped eating anywhere near as much bread over the past couple of weeks, and cut out some sugar, also cutting back on alcohol. I can't be too zealous about it, though... I love beer...

I've managed to change my metabolism pretty successfully. There's nothing in grains, nutritionally, that can't be gotten from vegetables, and vegetables are really good for you anyway, and more nutritionally dense while being low in calories. No human body needs grains, for anything. Plenty of carbohydrate available from other foods and better healthier options for vitamins. Lean meat and green / colorful vegetables are all I eat. Never felt better in my life.

My body seems to want to take grains and sugars and carbs and burn them first before my bodyfat, and anything not burned, converted immediately into fat. I've managed to change my metabolism pretty successfully. There's nothing in grains, nutritionally, that can't be gotten from vegetables, and vegetables are really good for you anyway, and more nutritionally dense while being low in calories.

I have a relatively active job, so I would have a tough time without things like rice bumping up my carbs and calories. I usually opt for brown rice if given a choice, which metabolises more slowly, and eat most of my calories in the morning and during the day when I'm most active (eat for your activity level), and try to focus more on protein and fruits/veggies later, as protein and fat can be digested and used overnight. I used to hit the gym 4 times per week, and was in excellent shape before I got married (under 10% body fat and pretty lean/muscular), but haven't been in years. Being in two bands and having a wife, two dogs, and my own home, I don't have much free time, and I run the business I work at, so I tend to put in a lot of hours. In any case, I'm pretty sure I'm not gluten intolerant, and I know non-glutenous grains don't bother me. I have a tough time with potatoes on occasion and have to eat them slowly, and bananas give me a problem sometimes, but otherwise food tends to agree with me. However, I know that overloading on gluten can make your system reject it, so I don't have as much as I used to. I'm definitely glad I don't have issues though, I have a friend with celiac disease and his diet is extremely strict. Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

    • Sacred Reich "Awakening"

      MacabreEternal posted a blog entry in Album Reviews,

      Whichever tier of thrash metal you consigned Sacred Reich back in the 80's/90's they still had their moments.  "Ignorance" & "Surf Nicaragura" did a great job of establishing the band, whereas "The American Way" just got a little to comfortable and accessible (the title track grates nowadays) for my ears.  A couple more records better left forgotten about and then nothing for twenty three years.  2019 alone has now seen three releases from Phil Rind and co.  A live EP, a split EP with Iron Reagan and now a full length.

      Notable addition to the ranks for the current throng of releases is former Machine Head sticksman, Dave McClean.  Love or hate Machine Head, McClean is a more than capable drummer and his presence here is felt from the off with the opening and title track kicking things off with some real gusto.  'Divide & Conquer' and 'Salvation' muddle along nicely, never quite reaching any quality that would make my balls tingle but comfortable enough.  The looming build to 'Manifest Reality' delivers a real punch when the song starts proper.  Frenzied riffs and drums with shots of lead work to hold the interest.


      There's a problem already though (I know, I am such a fucking mood hoover).  I don't like Phil's vocals.  I never had if I am being honest.  The aggression to them seems a little forced even when they are at their best on tracks like 'Manifest Reality'.  When he tries to sing it just feels weak though ('Salvation') and tracks lose real punch.  Give him a riffy number such as 'Killing Machine' and he is fine with the Reich engine (probably a poor choice of phrase) up in sixth gear.  For every thrashy riff there's a fair share of rock edged, local bar act rhythm aplenty too.

      Let's not poo-poo proceedings though, because overall I actually enjoy "Awakening".  It is stacked full of catchy riffs that are sticky on the old ears.  Whilst not as raw as perhaps the - brilliant - artwork suggests with its black and white, tattoo flash sheet style design it is enjoyable enough.  Yes, 'Death Valley' & 'Something to Believe' have no place here, saved only by Arnett and Radziwill's lead work but 'Revolution' is a fucking 80's thrash heyday throwback to the extent that if you turn the TV on during it you might catch a new episode of Cheers!

    • Overkill "The Wings of War"

      MacabreEternal posted a blog entry in Album Reviews,

      Full length number 19 from overkill certainly makes a splash in the energy stakes, I mean there's some modern thrash bands that are a good two decades younger than Overkill who can only hope to achieve the levels of spunk that New Jersey's finest produce here.  That in itself is an achievement, for a band of Overkill's stature and reputation to be able to still sound relevant four decades into their career is no mean feat.  Even in the albums weaker moments it never gets redundant and the energy levels remain high.  There's a real sense of a band in a state of some renewed vigour, helped in no small part by the addition of Jason Bittner on drums.  The former Flotsam & Jetsam skinsman is nothing short of superb throughout "The Wings of War" and seems to have squeezed a little extra out of the rest of his peers.

      The album kicks of with a great build to opening track "Last Man Standing" and for the first 4 tracks of the album the Overkill crew stomp, bash and groove their way to a solid level of consistency.  The lead work is of particular note and Blitz sounds as sneery and scathing as ever.  The album is well produced and mixed too with all parts of the thrash machine audible as the five piece hammer away at your skull with the usual blend of chugging riffs and infectious anthems.  


      There are weak moments as mentioned but they are more a victim of how good the strong tracks are.  In it's own right "Distortion" is a solid enough - if not slightly varied a journey from the last offering - but it just doesn't stand up well against a "Bat Shit Crazy" or a "Head of a Pin".  As the album draws to a close you get the increasing impression that the last few tracks are rescued really by some great solos and stomping skin work which is a shame because trimming of a couple of tracks may have made this less obvious.
