Another band I discovered thanks to the Youtube algorithm. And we will start out with a great cover of an Ultravox song.
And I have had this one on repeat for about the last 45 minutes.

So is there even a prayer of the Deftones/Gojira or Korn/Faith No More tours happening? I'm going to be extremely disappointed if I have to miss out on Faith No More and Deftones, but I don't see how it happens. I'm of the opinion we won't see any more concerts for the remainder of the year.

I'm of the opinion we won't see any more concerts for the remainder of the year. Korn/FNM, probably. I think all the shows were domestic and they’re established acts who can afford to wait out the crisis. Deftones/Gojira, who knows.

Deftones/Gojira did the bullshit "postponement" thing where you can't get a refund/are at their mercy for a refund. Kudos to bands like Slipknot and Korn for cancelling their shows so the fans can get their refunds right away.

TOOL is giving everyone their money back with the very reasonable explanation of "we don't want to tie your money up for a year". Furnace Fest is taking a similar step of rescheduling and offering everyone who wants out their money back pending a revised lineup ahead of the new date. Genuinely not that difficult to do the right thing here, and fans won't forget.

You'll have to go some way to convince me this isn't Evil Uno as Captain Yarrface.

Defeated Sanity - The Sanguinary Impetus (2020)At first the new Defeated Sanity gave me a minor heart attack. After the worst intro to a death metal album I’ve ever heard in went into the tech-death wankery that ruined the second half of their last album only with brutal death vocals. It was terrible. But after the first couple of songs they got that shit out of their system and worked back into brutal death, albeit with the f***ing tech-death bass wankery. They should fire their bass player. A very strange album. The earlier tech songs are all less than three minutes while the more brutal they got the longer the songs got, sometimes topping six minutes. It was almost as if they were joking around with the whole “are they tech? Are they brutal?” dynamic again but this time with song lengths. I applaud them doing something different with brutal death...but if I wanted lots of notes I’d listen to Yngwie Malmsteme. I wanted brutality. That’s why I can’t give this as high a score as I would like. Skip the first two songs. 7/10

So my vinyl copy of Nattens Madrigal by Ulver came from Century Media today, and the production is every bit as intentionally nonexistent as advertised. Still a good album, though.

Napalm Death - Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism (2020)Almost forty years into their career (if you include past members that are long gone). Sixteen albums deep. A stretch of seeming unstoppability for the last twenty years (yes, the 1990’s weren’t that great). And in 2020 Napalm Death release what is quite possibly their greatest album. That’s all I need to say. 11/10 Oh, the new Deftones is really good too but nothing else matters today.

I know there's a whole "Are they Tr00 metal!?" thing on Deftones, but holy hell that new album is awesome. It's easily my album of the year at this point. After seeing the Fantano review, I was expecting it to be awful. Not sure what the hell that dude listened to.
