The "CD Haul" thread

[Metal Ken]

How about a thread about everyone's recent disc purchases?

yesterday, i picked up
Toxic Holocaust - Hell On Earth
Opprobrium - Discerning Forces
Dream Theater - When Dream and Day Unite (again...)
Arsis - United in Regret


Toxic holocaust is awesomely hilarious... its like, riffs from the first metallica album with vocals ripped off from Bathory..and it was recorded in 2005 by a guy with billy idol hair named "Joel Grind".
Opporobrium is the guys from the ORIGINAL Incubus. And it sounds brutally awesome. you guys know about the other two.. I traded in a bucnh of dream theater for Iced Earth a few years ago and always regretted getting rid of WDADU, so i bought a used copy for 6$.

Wow. I wondered what happened to them. I'll have to check that out...

Got George Bellas' 'Turn of the Millenium' in the mail today...

Currently got Tony MacAlpine's 'Maximum Security' on order...

its pretty awesome, its all 4 of the original Incubus dudes. It sounds like a mix between tech. death metal and Chaos AD Sepultura (All 4 of the guys are from Rio De Janeiro). There's some songs with some christian overtones on there, but eh, no big deal to me. the disc is badass over all.

Wait...Incubus didn't suck ass at one point?

 

[Metal Ken]

You thinking of the "S.C.I.E.N.C.E." Incubus, or the "Serpent Temptation" Incubus, dave?

He has an album before that called Evil Never Dies which is a bit better, as well as a four-way split with three other bands I don't recall that has all the demos.

When he plays live his backing band is the entire lineup of the Japanese band Abigail, whose stuff (especially Black Thrash Attack) you should check out if you like TH.

+1 on Incubus/Opprobrium too

I wasn't very metal this week. I picked up the (+44) album and John Meyer's new one, Continuum. The Blink 182 fan in me from when I was a kid is still there, and (+44) is a nice break from what I'm used to.

Continuum is class. John Meyer is truly talented and an excellent musician.

Yeah, they didnt have that one in, but they played some samples for me at the CD store from some website, and it sounded cool, a bit heavier, more like late 80s thrash (Gammacide came to mind) but this one sounds MORE oldschool, like on par with Kill'em All Riffs. i'd like to pick up Evil Never Dies.
