Ha! That's great, Uland. Thanks.
That Catacombs album is great. I haven't thought about Genesis in a long time; that's Phil Collins era, right? I don't know that I'm ready to revisit that…though I like some of the Peter Gabriel stuff….
I've embarrassingly never listened to Voivod; I need to do that. And Tin Machine…wow. I really disliked that album, but it was a long, long time ago….perhaps I"d like it better now….
Hey, it was a random draw! There are like two good songs on the Tin Machine album, and I am genuinely embarrassed over liking mid-period Genesis. The Phil Collins solo albums are on every hipster playlist, but Genesis? nope.
Voivod is the greatest. Angel Rat is a weird album though. Fans love or hate it. They tapped into prog roots. I love it.
I somehow never realized you were super into prog. That's great. Do you like the Ruins at all? I love that side project Koenjihiyaki….
Solo Phil Collins is hip now? Good lord. I guess everything comes back around again….
"I am genuinely embarrassed over liking mid-period Genesis. The Phil Collins solo albums are on every hipster playlist, but Genesis? nope."
I guess between the two I'd prefer Collins w/ Genesis over solo Collins. There was a very early '90s Genesis single called something like "We Can't Dance" that I remember was really catchy, and a couple of other good Genesis tunes from the 80s, though I don't remember them now.
Liked solo Collins ok: some good ones, some clinkers, some in between. Back then (the 80s), if you turned on the radio, you got Phil Collins solo material coming out of it. So I heard a lot of him.
Okay, cuts 2-6 made me want to high, but I took the others and have made myself a nice playlist with favorites from the second batch you sent. From the second batch, I've assimilated the Silvester Anfug song and the Beastie Boys song, plus "translucent carriages".
Drudkh I might be able to get eventually. But that Heimdallr and the other loud stuff — good God, what is it? Is that death rock too?
Oh yeah, I meant cuts 2-6 made me want to hide, not "high." I don't think those songs would do me much good if I were on drugs.
Track 2 (by Aborted) and 3 (by Vader) are death metal; track 4 (by Enslaved) and 5 (by Satyricon) are old school grungy black metal.
Of them all, though, Drudkh is the one with Nazi leanings.
Glad you liked the rest of it, though!
