Stormwatcher is a perfect piece of Doom Metal forged by masters.

Mixed feelings towards this album on my side. Especially The Edge of Perfection doesn’t appeal to me. IMO Joey sounds quite powerless on this one.

But there are cool songs, too.

And I really appreciate that they didn’t choose the easy way in songwriting.

That’s a good album, however the sound lacks punch, sadly.

The record starts a bit slow, but the groove gets going with “Imported love”.

Thanks for posting, I had nearly forgotten about that album. 👍

Nice! I’m sure they own a copy of Pleasure to Kill. Refreshing. A bit like Lemmy doing some old school Kreator stuff. 🙂

You are right. This could have been on any of the last Metallica albums.

I need to check that out tonight

I am afraid but I have to inform you that this is just a cover version. Listen to the original here https://youtube.com/playlist?list=RDEIouvSWaFgM&playnext=1

Thrash Metal as it should be 🤘🏻

I can agree with that. IMO the have some real bangers.

When they started out they were better than most German thrash bands at the time but got lost in copying Slayer afterwards.

After the comeback they did well, but not superb. But there are the bangers. 😁

By the way, do you know Slower? They do Slayer covers, but as Doom versions. 😄

There is Holy Moses, who started really early, even 1980 AFAIK. The singer Sabina Claaßen shouted there nearly their whole career.

TBH I never liked her voice which kept me from listening to their music, which is actually quite good. But that’s just my personal taste.

I like the drumming… Didn’t know that cover until now. Thanks for posting. 👍🏻

@serpineslair@lemmy.world I can fully understand you checking out electronic music. I have been a metalhead all my life since 1986, however used to DJ Detroit electro and other breakbeat stuff like DnB, Ghetto Tech and of course the really heavy German stuff, Anthony Rother, Blotnick Brothers and the likes. Did club and radio shows back in the days.

I liked to use a Carcass bit to separate parts of my electronic sets.

These genres fit well together IMO.

I think Tidal redirects you if you don’t use their app. Glad you like it. 🤘🏻

It passed my “does it get me motivated for work” test in the morning with ease 😄

You nailed it.

Yeah, I agree.

I personally like the album better than Hate… I dig the opener especially, however it’s all a little to “big” for me.

A crushing crusher? 🤘🏻

I like how you live your true self even when it’s not appropriate.
