well it's been a good month of music for teh Fist
A Perfect Circle - The Thirteenth Step
The whole band got changed around but the result is just fine by me. I really like the first 4 tracks, then things slow down, but pick up again at the end. Sure the sound is very different from the frist album but I think that makes it more interesting. And I want to have Maynard's baby.
Acumen Nation - Lord of the Cynics
Jason Novak and the gang are just as awesome as ever on this CD. I love it because although the band has stayed the same they've still managed to release an amazing album that sounds nothing like 5th Column, which came out in 2002. What also is great is just a year between the two records, whereas before the albums were at least 3 years apart, and always had a change in band members. well I could go on forever on this cd/band so I'll shut up and move on. One word; AMAZING
KMFDM - WWIII
So Tim Skold is now playing with Marilyn Manson and crew, but surprisingly that didn't stop Sascha K. from KICKING ASS and releasing this great album. I was hoping for something big after Attak, which I liked but it took a while to grow on me. I've listened to this cd four times or so, and like it more and more. the beginning tracks totally stomp and set the pace for the rest of the disc, which follows through and delivers catchy industrial tracks and killer lyrics.
Wumpscut - Bunker Gate 7
Revisiting an old favorite of mine, this cd sould be the soundtrack of the world..that is if the world were to suddenly be plunged into post-apocalyptic darkness and you had to fight with every breath just to survive. Ah what a good feeling. Rudy is a master of his craft, it shows on this record the most, which flows with blood from beginning to end.
Type O Negative - Life is Killing Me
It just wouldn't be Fall without the boys from Brooklyn. I had hoped to the elders gods of goth music that Type O hadn't broken up, rumors were spreading, but sure enough this cd came out a few months ago and it has to be their best yet. Pete's voice is perfect, and the music is perfect, feels alot like Bloody Kisses and October Rust combined, but with better writing. Overall I could listen to this disc over and over and not get sick of it. Black is back baby!
That's all for the month of spookiness, I'll go back to my Dungeon of Doom until next time...
