Merzbow Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Her music is great but why is she on Profound Lore? The music comes from the place of being a sexual abuse survivor but PL supported and promoted a convicted violent abuser, even using that crime as a selling point for the album the guy released after it.

King Mal the Glorious Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Profound Lore have plenty of hipster scene points so can get away with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperBacon Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Boysetsfire, Mclusky and Tellison are all great shouts. In fact, Contact Contact is probably my favourite album from a British band in the last 20 years. An absolute masterpiece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing to see the depth of their catalogue since then. I need to go back and listen to it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted October 7, 2019 Author Paid Members Share Posted October 7, 2019 Seeing that Vogg from Decapitated has joined Machine Head's touring band to play the non-Burn My Eyes portion of the their sets, be interesting to see if he joins fully to help put a record together and Flynn lets him contribute, that could be great!

Only just seen this but that's a cracking list. Get Up Kids, Lawrence Arms and Streetlight are great shouts. What are everyone else's underrated albums of the 00s? I'll go with The Riot Before - Fists Buried In Pockets, came out in around 2008 (although Spotify says 2015 but that is bollocks). One of those bands like American Steel that popped up around the same time as Gaslight Anthem but didn't get the attention. Unfortunately only made one more album then broke up. One for @SuperBacon maybe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merzbow Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) The 00's is truly the era of black metal that deserves the most attention, fuck those church burners of the 90's, the 00's is where the genre grew in many different directions and is so underrated. Austere - To Lay Like Old Ashes Coldworld - Melancholie² Xasthur - A Gate Through Bloodstained Mirrors The Ruins of Beverast - Rain Upon the Impure Sombres forêts - Royaume de glace Nuit Noire - Lunar Deflagration Nortt - Ligfærd Anaal Nathrakh – The Codex Necro Mütiilation - Black Millenium (Grimly Reborn) And this is just what I can remember while drunk. EDIT: I can't leave out Lifelover, Pulver and Erotik are both 10/10 for weirdness. Edited October 9, 2019 by Merzbow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those bands like American Steel that popped up around the same time as Gaslight Anthem but didn't get the attention. Unfortunately only made one more album then broke up. One for @SuperBacon maybe! As mentioned Tellison-Contact Contact would be right at the top. A fucking masterpiece. Honourable mentions go to Straylight Run-S/T (the best album John Nolan will ever be a part of, dont @ me) Emanuel-A Soundtrack To A Headrush. A banger of an album, I thought this lot would be massive. From Autumn To Ashes-Too Bad You’re Beautiful. Often imitated, never bettered metalcore. The Academy Is-Almost Here. I’ll say that this is the best album of any of that Victory/Fueled By Ramen label lot. Hopesfall-A Types, The Copperpot Journals-Plotting To Kill Your Friends and My Awesome Complilation-Actions I all love as well. That’s all I can think of at this late hour. Sure I’ll sit up in bed and scream “WHAT ABOUT THE APPLESEED CAST” at 3am later. Also, it’s not underrated but Set Your Goals-Mutiny would be my desert island disc from that decade. I don’t know how many times I’ve listened to that album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s all I can think of at this late hour. Sure I’ll sit up in bed and scream “WHAT ABOUT THE APPLESEED CAST” at 3am later. Okay, you've won me back over. TBYB is in my top 20 albums of all time, possibly even in the number 10 spot depending on my mood. 'Two Conversations' by The Appleseed Cast is excellent too. I'd also throw in: Alesana - On Frail Wings Of Vanity And Wax (screechy, moaning, skinny-jeans-and-all scenecore that felt like a breath of fresh air in 2007). Bright Eyes -LIFTED (People always refer to Digital Ash, Cassadaga or Good Morning as the bands best work but LIFTED is stronger as a whole). Cursive - The Ugly Organ (My favourite album of all time is also one that doesn't get the credit it deserves. Still underrated). The Good Life - Album Of The Year (Another Tim Kasher project that should've been a worldwide smash but was instead more celebrated by the hidden crowd). Moving Mountains - Pneuma (Post-rock with vocals? Soft post-hardcore? Emo prog? It's just really, really good). Our Lady Peace - Spiritual Machines (The best straight-up alternative rock album of the 00's. Bar none). Sesnes Fail - Let It Enfold You (Often overlooked due to their contemporaries' massive successes, and their next album getting all the air play with 'Calling Cars' and 'Can't Be Saved', LIEY is unabashedly fierce and loose. Every song is a winner here). Secret Lives Of The Freemasons - This Was Built To Make You Dance (I was very surprised that this album, and opener Make Like A Door And Shut Up, didn't explode onto the emo/post-hardcore scene and dance floors. It had everything going for it. Such a shame). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
