This album is so great! Gets better and better and adds to their cstalogue another heavy slice of powerful doom.
Its a denser, heavier and more challenging album than its brother The Plague Within. Glad you enjoy it!

Underrated album but overall it still doesn't beat the energy, speed and aggression of Reign...Jeff (and Slayer's) masterpiece, no question. I wanna know your opinions of Slayer's "classic three" and the classic Anthrax stuff!!

Slayer's not one of my big favorites, but they are entertaining to me in a thrashy thrashy thrash thrash kind of way. I prefer South Of Heaven to Reign In Blood, more interesting album from a diversity and atmospheric standpoint, though Reign In Blood does what it does better than anything else. It's been some months since I listened to Seasons, but I initially preferred that one to Reign as well. We'll see when I get back around to it.
And my Anthrax ranking so far:
Among The Living
State Of Euphoria
Spreading The Disease

Yep, I can understand that. TBH Reign seemed overrated to me at first BUT after quite a few more listens I totally got why it's held up as a masterpiece on so many levels. It's just so relentless, so perfectly executed with that production, just does what a thrash album is meant to do, they absolutely nailed it. Seasons and South are kinda the same from different standpoints - both 8/10s. How do you rank all these albums out of 10? Totally agree with you on Anthrax although Persistence is really solid as well. I will have to duel it with Disease again to reassess 3rd placing. LMK when you finally get to it yourself

Speaking of which, for its genre, I think it's one of the best sounding vinyl masters I've ever heard. It's got the doomy production, but the dynamics is stupidly amazing for vinyl. It's a joy to listen to on vinyl.

Faith Divides is my favourite album, and the title track is my shared favourite song alongside Pray Nightfall off of Symbol Of Life.
Medusa is fast becoming the album of the year for me.

in particular "The Mighty Masturbator". what an epic 16 minutes
Devin Townsend really became my artist in the course of 12-18 months

Jerry Garcia - Reflections (2016 180g reissue)
The Beatles - Revolver (180g reissue of 2009 remaster)
Listening to Reflections and it's so much better than my original pressing that I bought a year ago. A bit apprehensive about Revolver, considering I don't particularly like the remastering job from the 2009 project.

after a few full playthroughs I'm adoring this album. Fun, and a different take from the rest of his discography.
Super strong opener and closer, which is something I always appreciate in an album.

I would be interested in a few more details, if you felt like it ORFie.
Love his first 5 albums but then things got sax-y and I wandered away.
(listening to Replicas right now - great, atmospheric stuff.)

I'm in love throughWarriors also, but a friend in Massachusetts told me she heard it on a radioshow, and said it was great. It IS! reminds me a LOT of the early stuff. His daughter helps on one song too!

Cool! I'll keep an ear out for it!
Have you heard this one? I just bought "Replicas Redux" and it was bonus track. I'd never heard it before and it rox my sox.

Kinda sounds like their circa 2001 stuff. Kinda sounds like Scott, too.
