to me these dudes have the same hipster appeal that blood ceremony had when they were a fresh band.. i saw BC's second gig openning for bitchwax and honestly i thought the hot chick singer-flautist-keys player was the shit-but that was it.  it's just recycled sabbath riffs .  maybe it's because i cut my hair and stopped wearing back patches on my jean jackets but this retro shit has seriously lost it's appeal.  no soul, no staying power.  i'm out

They were one of the highlights of Roadburn.

Got the CD in the mail.  First listen - heavier, doomier on some tracks.  Vocals are buried in the mix somewhat.  Not disappointed.

Yeah, it's really good.  I like that they went away from the horror movie themes on this one.  It's got more psych flourishes thrown in, and some tracks get more down and doomy.  The opening two tracks are pretty upbeat. I could review the whole thing, I guess, though I feel like I've got more important things to do?
The fact that I kept setting my own boats on fire was considered charming.

Actually there are some riffs that remind me of your old band, Andy.

I'll get around to listening to this once I finish my Uriah Heep album by album marathon.

Still doing those marathons?  Glutton for punishment.  Who's next, Nazareth?

I tried to do Nazareth, but flamed out. I'm willing to give them another shot, though.

Not anytime in the foreseeable future.

But get this, I've done Jethro Tull twice now. Probably next up is The Young Gods (again) ...

Uh, anyway, we now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

Songs are a good bit longer on this album, less pop structure.

Yeah, maybe a little.  The riffs are definitely good.

I like the new album but I think the production is a little too clean.  I kinda like the shitty recording sound on Blood Lust more it added a lot of character to the sound.  The vocals in particular on the new one seem to be pitched a lot lower and just don't seem to have as much power.  It's still a good album though.

While I like it, and have two different cd versions of it, I find Uncle Acid is a lot of hype, and not as "great" as to be believed.  Now with this being said, I still will buy the new one coming out.

Oops!!

Where'd you order it from, England?  ;)

I think so actually haha.  When I order cd's they take forever to get here.  ATIH would take up to 4 weeks to get here.  Small Stone sometimes the same.

I've sent stuff to Canada and received stuff from there.  Takes longer than getting stuff from anywhere else in the world.
