Where do you usually get them? Aside from shows, that is.

Also, in reference to the pic you posted of your new back patch(which is extra swift, I might add) a few pages back, where did you see a Sanctuary- Refuge denied patch? I have wanted one since I was a snot nose wannabe swashbuckler but never got one. My older brother had a Death - leprosy patch and I remember seeing the sanctuary cover and wanted that patched ever since. So it's funny you should mention it. Caused me to ruminate. Make a childhood dream come true.

I know some dude that makes custom back patches. He'll do any picture any dimensions so it's sweat as hell.

I've found out that germany is the best place for getting obscure band shirts, especially 80s/90s thrash/death/doom

no doubt, classic cover.

I have a scream blood gore shirt but it's really short on me now, almost like one of those old thrash belly shirts, but I don't think I'm ready to try and bring that style back.

This is probably one of the best albums of this year and the singer is dead and gone in that crash. I had to go back and revisit the album the other night when i was doing my headphones ritual before bed and i realized how punishing this record is. It destroys so much pussy shit. Crusty rotten and explosive as fuck. I love this album and its worthless that Makh Daniels became deceased this week. Dude left a monster behind.

^ DLing now.

And dudes, I need your help. I've been way out of touch because of work. No time to pay attention. What's in heavy rotation this year?

The only thing I've checked recently has been that In Solitude LP that MT1 posted, and it's wicked to say the least. Hook me up with some upload cliff notes. No need to post new links either, just name drop and I'll find it.

Im waiting on this new Torche Ep to drop and thats probably gonna do it for me this year. Im sure im missing as few great albums but dudes will fill you in. kinda been a slow year for Metal but whats been coming out has been outstanding.

Masked Terror #1 · Post by **Masked Terror #1** » Sat Aug 07, 2010 1:12 am

If you don't have Bison BC- Dark Ages, make that shit happen asap.

Plus Nachtmystium- Addicts and Watain- Lawless Darkness.

Lightning Swords of Death- The Extradimensional Wound is pretty badass too.

the brow · Post by **the brow** » Sat Aug 07, 2010 6:30 am

Didn't know there was a new Nachtmystium. Dope.

Thanks for the recs. I'll check em out and state some irrelevant opinions.

Indeed, that's what I would go with if I can't find the Sanctuary patch. Mainly because my brother still has the jacket with the patch. So it's about 20 years old. At this point, the patch has an awesome faded out and worn in appeal. Although, he probably wouldn't even leave it to me in his will.

The Brow, MT also upped some new dudes named Wolvhammer. They are rather awesome and have been in rotation, as well. The dl link is about 2-3 pages back.

DLG · Post by **DLG** » Sun Aug 08, 2010 12:21 pm

Dope list man. Do you have a link for that Kvelertak, what I heard on their myspace sounded dope. I'll be seeing them live next week too I believe at brutal assault.

HoF is dope, though not as good as the last couple, Decrepit Birth is essential for those into latter day Death, Immolation is fucking fantastic, those guys remain legends and keep putting out amazing stuff. Some of the most sinister riffing I've heard in the 2000s.

Couldn't get into The Crinn. Mekong Delta is great, they finally have a normal, good singer, though the music is not as chaotic as in the past.

Dillinger is awesome, up to par, they pretty much can't do wrong, even though they've obviously hit their stride and have a mapped out formula for the music now.

Periphery I talked about earlier, mostly bump for the lack of other quality djenty stuff.

Yakuza puts out winter music to me, I couldn't get through the album this summer, I'll try again later in the year.

Canvas Solaris is like all their albums, half great, half snooze fest.

Twilight is excellent, but not fucking with Nachmystium, which will get played over them on my ipod every time pretty much.

I really can't get into any solo Isahan, even though the last Emperor album was my shit

Mercuthio · Post by **Mercuthio** » Sun Aug 08, 2010 1:58 pm

yeah, the Kvelertak is really good stuff. right now, i'm wondering why they didn't make the list...

pretty sure this link is 320:
http://www.mediafire.com/?hk2mmmczm0t#1

i didn't know periphery or HoF before the records were posted in here, so thanks a bundle for those. especially the Periphery has been in heavy rotation.

Funny thing bout Yakuza being winter music, Transmutations was a really good go-nuts, fuck shit up record for me last winter. the new one really impressed me and i haven't been able to stop playing the shit.

Ihsahn, Dillinger, Immolation and Mekong are probably the stuff i've been playing the most since they dropped. The whole vibe of After, it feels like one of the most complete records this year to me.

Mercuthio · Post by **Mercuthio** » Sun Aug 08, 2010 2:14 pm

and that sounds really cool, seeing these dudes at Brutal Assault. Very good record.

Gonna finally see Gojira though, also Meshuggah for the seventh time I think Devin Townsend solo finally, Macabre (finally!), Napalm Death, Lock Up, Kylesa, Necrophagist, whole bunch of shit.

also will be drunk for five days straight.

Mercuthio · Post by **Mercuthio** » Sun Aug 08, 2010 3:30 pm

oh, cool line-up though.

speaking of Necrophagist, what in the hell is going on with that record?!

DLG · Post by **DLG** » Sun Aug 08, 2010 3:48 pm

I have no idea, it's pretty stupid at this point how long it's taking.

seems like they do nothing all year, play festivals in the summer and that's it.

Mercuthio · Post by **Mercuthio** » Sun Aug 08, 2010 4:42 pm

heh, yeah.

it seems I've been in a loop waiting for this shit, I completely forget about the freggin thing, six months go by, i'm reminded of it, i play Epitaph and then I wonder...

where the fudge is that new record?

at this point, who really gives a rotten rat's rectum?
