fixed it for ya  ;)

i can't get into Ghost...i like the pop song structure, the music/vocals are great....just can't get into the vibe i guess, dunno.  

as far as fuzzed out 70's style metal, my favorite this year was definitely Christian Mistress...

If you read their interviews and, at least to me, listen to the delivery I think they are more satirical and intend to provoke thought/feelings than anything. Not that I care, I wear my Ghost shirt for the same reason.  People see the upside down cross and the Clockwork Orange cover and get worked up. Being an atheist confuses them even more since I don't worship a deity "above" or "below" the ground ;)  Though many religious folks seem to think atheists are Satanists either way so the provocation is complete no matter what I do.

Eagle Twin's new album is stellar as well, the first one was good but this new one is great. wasn't too happy with the new Earth...they've turned into the metal Grateful Dead (which i suppose is good for some

From what I remember, pretty killer. I've seen Sunn O))) 4 times I think now. Earth is still strange for me to see live, I find them to be a very private, intimate experience but they generally are on point.

I have to check ET's new one out, Dylan seems to be trying to find his direction again. Would love for Joe Preston to come back for an album. For me, Hex is my favorite album and the best of one side of the Earth sound spectrum and another being Pentastar which is more rock oriented.

Sunn O))) this year at Power of the Riff Fest East.

Shirt & LP from a 2008 show to celebrate the The GrimmRobe Demos. Sadly that incarnation of the KF isn't there anymore, my favorite venue for a while.

anyone heard these guys?

it's a really weird mix of Americana / country / folk, and black metal.  i picked it up after reading about it on a top 2012 list, the first 3 songs are actually pretty neat (the album overall isn't great IMO, the last half is just over the top indulgent psych noise) but the concept was pretty neat and unlike anything i've ever heard.  kind of like Neurosis if they came from nashville...sorry if this is old news and i'm just way behind

Oh man, and I just ordered that one :p
