Currently Listening To XII…
Baroness - Red Album
Released last year, it’s a metal band, but their sound rises to the level of becoming symphonic. 90% of their music in that album is instrumental, the vocals that are included are a bit harsh, but slip right in with the moods created by the song.
I gotta say, this is probably one of the better metal albums of last year, which I thought was a low metal year personally. Serj Tankian’s Elect the Dead is the only metal/hard-rock album that comes to mind right now that I even bother to listening to. Actually, Marilyn Manson’s Eat Me, Drink Me was sexy. Puscifer, Smashing Pumpkins (their last release seemed a bit heavy, so I think it fits in this discussion), and so many others… let down.
Now when the hell is Reznor going on tour…
