Merzbow Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 G.I.S.M have signed with Relapse, I doubt we'll see a new album but looking on Spotify they've uploaded a new release of Detestation before any official announcement has been made. At least I'll be able to get an official copy at last, there have been so many bootlegs. And speaking of Relapse, they're putting out a new Boris and Merzbow collab. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted October 25, 2020 Members Posted October 25, 2020 Pup have released a new EP, This Place Sucks Ass, and it is Pup doing Pup things, and has brightened up my Sunday morning no end, so have a listen if that sort of shit floats your boat. Quote
WyattSheepMask Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Pallbearer put out their new album (Forgotten Days) the other day. It’s getting a lot of praise and I’ve listened to it 3 times. It’s a very good album, but I wouldn’t put it above ‘Heartless‘ Quote
Merzbow Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Yeah it's very good and has that gorgeous sound they're typical of but it's not their best, It doesn't crush me like Foundations of Burden did. Maybe a bit too proggy and light. Quote
WyattSheepMask Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 I just put that down to them being a little older & wiser than they were 6 years ago. Obviously they’re on a new label now too which will effect things, but I wouldn’t say that it’s a dramatic shift and ‘Silver Wings’ is as good as anything they’ve ever done Quote

I thought it was ok. The Grandaddy cover is the best song on it. Quote

Hadn’t heard of these until two days ago when a song from their last album popped up in a random Spotify playlist. Instantly became a fan, so thanks for bringing this to my attention! Quote

Merzbow Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 Mary Anne Hobbs just played a metal playlist on radio 6 with some great choices from Boris, Duma, Divide & Dissolve, Tetragrammacide and others among a few classics. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000p8kq Quote

A really unfussy band, who just make excellent high energy music that zips along. Be sure to check out the album before that, The Dream Is Over. Another absolute cracker. Quote
wordsfromlee Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 I’d say The Dream Is Over is their best album. Followed closely by the self titled. I wasn’t massively fussed on Morbid Stuff. It felt a bit over produced for them. It didn’t have that rough-around-the-edges sound that fit their style perfectly that the previous two albums had. Quote
Kfogg1991 Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 I am THE biggest fan of bring me the horizon ( my firstborn son is called ollie just to give you 1 example of how much of a fan i am) So i have been fully invested in there recent releases on the road to this new EP out this week. However, it has leaked and has been out there to find for the past 3 days or so and i am so happy/excited to say this EP is the best release they have done for about 5 years now. The entire thing is a real throwback and nod to there heavier day's as a band. With the opener song "Dear diary" tearing your face off and has Oli screaming the entire way through. The weakest track on the EP by a far margin is the final track with Amy Lee which although it is a beautiful song, It really is a huge contrast to the rest of the EP and end's the release on abit of a low note instead of ending on a massive high with a super fast/heavy song to close this first or three ep's they are planning to put out over the next year. It has made it's way very high up if not at the top of my album's of the year (And even though this year has been so shit for the music industry thanks to Covid. The only good thing to actually come out of it all is the absolutely unbelievable albums/ep's/releases from bands) I would give it a 8 and a half maybe 9 out of 10!! If you haven't yet checked it out my god you owe it to yourself to hear it Quote
