These guys are from my home town along with Sleep and High on Fire. They put out one album. I used to go see them all the time. Nice guys. There was a pretty good scene from mid 90's to early 2000's.

Sounds like a cool town.

@Bridger it was awesome.

@jpvisual High on Fire are one of my favourite metal bands.

I consider them to be a love child of Motorhead and Sabbath.

They should go down in history as one of the greats. However, I don't think their studio albums deliver what you get when you see them live, which is a sledgehammer to the face in the best possible way.

Coady Willis is beast and a great fit for the band. I can't imagine how many calories he burns per gig - he must carb load before a show.

@Bridger totally. Great band.

Seeing a Celtic Frost post reminded me to check out Tom Fischers original band - glad to see their musicianship improved slightly! Used to live this when I was a kid.

[Tago Mago]

@Gavin666 I assume you have also checked out Triptykon, his latest venture?

[Gavin666]

@Tago-Mago Yes but my tastes have mellowed as I have aged!

[Gavin666]

Friend of mine and his bros band. Also below, his lounge!

[Bridger]

@Gavin666 do you know why he has bookshelf speakers next to the tower speakers?

[Gavin666]

@Bridger no idea I am afraid

This may be a good place to ask this random question: Anyone have a line on someone who's doing Black Flag bars patches? I mean, like, doing them well? Or someone who does custom patches and would do it? OR (and this is final or I swear) someone who does custom chainstitch and would chainstitch me some Blag Flag bars on my IH jean vest?

@Matt I have listened to this record quite a bit recently and I really enjoy listening to it. The spaced-out proggy parts are great in particular. The beginning of The Stargate Tablet II is giving me major Mass Effect vibes

@Tago-Mago @Matt we listen to that Blood Incantation record quite a bit at the shop. It's great.

[guiltyparty]

I will suggest this Stormkeep record, it fucking rips

[Oaktavia]

@guiltyparty dude, I listened to this album on my long commute to work this morning. Thanks for sharing, it's a ripper. I need more music like this in my life.

[Tago Mago]

@guiltyparty 100% agreed

[Oaktavia]

@Tago-Mago hell yeah

Made my first shitty YouTube “music video”. Spared no expense, lol, recorded and edited with nothing but a GoPro on my bike and iPhone in my garage with my guitar and other toys. Nothing special, but I just wanted a place to put things. I’ll probably just post junk as kind of a journal of things that interest me. More for my kids than to get attention. Thought I’d share with y’all.
