We're having trouble again. On this day of atonement I wish to thank you for your recent new releases. Holy crap, everyone who is/has put out a high profile album really knocked it out of the park.
Helloween, Iced Earth, Arch Enemy, Monster Magnet and Down have all made amazing new records. However, letting them all drop at the same time due to internet leaks is making it very hard to concentrate on any one. Iced Earth is so two weeks ago? Helloween is so last week? Damn our accelerated culture. I should *still* be grooving on the new King Diamond but it seems positively ancient, having dropped in June.
Please internet leakers, control the valve of new music more judiciously so I can enjoy and savor these new records.
PS- Holy crap the new Arch Enemy is freaking amazing! Do you actually listen to the music, or do you just leak it? Big props for dropping the Japanese retail version which has them covering "The Oath" from KISS. I know! A Music From "The Elder" track!!! Who the hell covers Elder era KISS? But also this is the best Iced Earth album since Something Wicked and the new Helloween is quite a grower! I need to find time to let it grow!
If this embarrassment of riches has done anything, I'm back on the album! Who has time to fast forward through Deicide and TMBG tracks while on random with this many full albums to enjoy?
