I was an Oz Fox Pants / Tim Gaines Vest combo guy.
 
99% of the time a re-recorded album from a bands early career would be a hard pass..



..but this is pretty killer. I like the rawness of the original, but they’ve breathed some new life into it and made it even harder. I haven’t listened to the new version of Bestial Devastation yet, but its on the menu for later.
 
um... so... the Industrial list on Consequence got me to look up metal lists, so now I am listening to City of Evil by Avenge Sevenfold and I don't think I like this either. In fact, at least the new album was interesting. This sounds like some shit I would have dismissed in High School.

I just looked this up now and I have serious beef with like 60% of this list. Jfc
 
I can tell you this much... I plan on spending a week with most of the punk and industrial stuff. I ain't spending a week with A7X or Evanescence. Actually, I may spend a week with Evanescence.


This City of Evil now sounds like some weird flamenco bullshit.

Consequence of sound top industrial albums.

Filter? White zombie? Strapping young lad? Thrill kill kult, lords of acid, big black, stabbing westward? Static x?

Sigh

The thing is, the things they got right (nurse with wound, for example) make the things they got wrong that much weirder.

It's a weird list (and Thrill Kill absolutely belongs there - MAYBE not that album, but they should be there)
 
Also, I started a thread...

The Mind is a Terrible Thing, and Linger Fickin' Good: THE INDUSTRIAL THREAD

I'll think of a better name later. Yes, this was sparked by Consequence's Industrial week, bite me. Check this weird at times list: https://consequence.net/2023/07/best-industrial-albums-all-time/ (How is Pretty Hate better than Downward Spiral?, Where is Rabies? WHITE ZOMBIE, really? Is...

So I bought that Scott Walker/Sun O))) album, mostly because I lean towards the Ambient/free jazz side of their spectrum, but I need some more context. Who is this weird operatic singer that seems to simultaneously sing about S&M and nature in one song!? What’s this album about? Why did these two groups of musical creators connect?

Sunn O))) songwriters Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson had previously contacted Walker about contributing vocals to Monoliths & Dimensions in 2009, but Walker declined due to prior engagements.[3] While developing material for his follow up record to 2012's Bish Bosch, Walker reached out to the band. Walker's decision to incorporate drones came about while developing lyrics. As the singer-composer stated, "I could get those gaps, you see, between phrases. Which I usually fill with silence, but now I had the drones."
