I probably would've put it in my top 10...but that place could have easily been taken by Evoken, Satan's Wrath, Hooded Menace, or Gorod.<br /><br />As far as High on Fire goes: I agree completely and I'm glad you pointed out that it's a lesser effort.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486278711315411608.post-11178541999305798162013-01-04T20:38:35.397-08:002013-01-04T20:38:35.397-08:00Interesting post.

I think Jane Doe is exceptional, and I liked the previous release. But I can only take them in small doses. I don't often want to listen to them. I think it's because they are whining a lot, and I can only take so much of that. Suck it up. Re: High on Fire - when I first listened to it, had same feeling as you. Took about 4 listens, and now its one of my favorites of theirs.

It's just been sitting there, and I've listened to it a couple times, but simply don't have the drive to listen to it again. I'm not sure what to do with it. So maybe I agree with you on that too, but I'm not sure.Full Metal Attorneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04818204892818121018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486278711315411608.post-69465237298633861842012-12-27T22:49:36.873-08:002012-12-27T22:49:36.873-08:00Strongly agreed on Alcest and Whitechapel (based o...Strongly agreed on Alcest and Whitechapel (based only on prior output, because I haven't heard the new ones and don't plan to). Very strongly and more credibly agreed on Enslaved. I think people are just afraid to say anything negative about a band that's been so consistently excellent for so long. Partially agreed on Pig Destroyer, and you know where I disagree.Full Metal Attorneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04818204892818121018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486278711315411608.post-33934513273796700902012-12-26T23:51:47.663-08:002012-12-26T23:51:47.663-08:00You've noted before that you never liked Neuro...You've noted before that you never liked Neurosis, so that doesn't surprise me too much.<br /><br />And I'm guessing High on Fire at least will be on your list.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16643574297099103547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486278711315411608.post-7691259343026205412012-12-26T19:36:03.731-08:002012-12-26T19:36:03.731-08:00I agree with many of these, though there will be a...I agree with many of these, though there will be a couple of them on my Top 40 list coming up. I would probably put Neurosis's new album on a list like this myself.Metallattorneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05697604772912635416noreply@blogger.com
