LITURGY is fixing heavy metal, and there's nothing you can do to stop them

<< < (22/27) > >>

Tom:
Oh dear, TMT really likes this record.

David_Dovey:
Well yeah, but they also showed their hand re: their knowledge of and attitudes towards metal in the first paragraph. Namely that they don't know dick and don't really care to try. Oh and that metal is all "thuggish brutality, reactionary conservatism, and senseless misanthropy?" and that's "self-evident". Maybe not to anyone who actually listens to metal.

So of course they fucking love the Liturgy album.

SWOON! at My Gravitas:
The Swans comparisons irk me, because Hunter Hunt-Hendrix is the kind of person I like to think Michael Gira would loathe.

But then, he recorded a guitar part for the bonus disc of the latest Swans album, soooo

Also, Pitchfork rated Aesthetica about as well as they have ever rated a metal album.  Neither review mentions how ridiculous and annoying the song 'Glass Earth' is

David_Dovey:
Yeah Michael Gira, for all his other upsides, seems to have really dogshit taste in bands and musicians he chooses to support (Akron/Family blowwwssssss wooo)

JD:
Flux Information Sciences is rad though
