This album was agony. i hit the skip button so mny times. and i REALLY tried. I just do not like this record at all. well ok.......i like 3 songs. Distant Early Warning Afterimage Between the Wheels. And for such a dark album lyrically this sure sounds bright..... mixed hot and really AGGRESSIVELY shiny. I also really don't like Alex's guitar here so damn shrill. and you CAN'T say i'm not being open. i lve albums i hated ALREADY so shut that stuff down right now. This one just doesn't connect. Mick I rank GUP at No.3 in my overall Top RUSH Albums .. above MP ! which I agree with you Mick is a tad over-rated P/G is not as instant Mick as some of their other albums, but with repeated plays it might grow on you 🤞🙂 ( It helps if you also happen to like The Police ! 🙃) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick I’ve got a feeling if you like Signals, you might also at least quite like Power Windows 🤞🙂 I reckon you’ll enjoy at least ⭐️ Big Money ⭐️ ⭐️ Grand Designs ⭐️ ⭐️ Marathon ⭐️ ⭐️Territories ⭐️ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Mastodon- Call Of The Mastodon Mastodon- Remission Mastodon- Leviathan Mastodon- Blood Mountain Mastodon- Crack The Skye This was a phenomenal run. However, I still feel slightly let down by Crack The Skye. The first four albums (well, COTM is a collection of EPs) are phenomenal, mind melting metal. Crack The Skye...is superb but somehow not as intoxicating. But I think it's still a classic album, I just hold every Mastodon album so high that for me to be "disappointed" is to be really petty. Will continue with their discography. I'm excited for The Hunter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Mastodon- The Hunter It's fine. It's watered down and not all that interesting. I hoped I'd love this more than I realised, but I don't. Still my least favourite of their great discography. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Now playing: Mastodon- Once More 'Round The Sun It's the reboot of The Hunter. I know some fans dislike this album but I don't understand how. Its a stronger, weirder album than The Hunter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Third Eye Blind- Our Bande Apart Okay so this album is new and was released without me knowing. Thanks to Spotify, I found it. It's a mature album, I like it so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick The Hunter is an excellent example of a band slicking up their sound and not losing their identity. But unfortunately...I don't love one song on the album. In fact, for all its strengths I find it a very annoying listen. OMRTS is proggier and weirder, and I love it. But I can see either album being at the top or bottom of any lists. I have great appreciation for all their albums, they have no misses for me (it's just dependent on taste what era you prefer). I still love HaG. Can't wait to see how they go from there in future 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see how they go from there in future i've been doing a relsten too (barring the first 2 records cause i'm just not in the mood for that agressiveness) and i will say i'm find the 2 midpoint (i guess midpoint) albums the Hunter Once more and Emperor of Sand the "weakest".....note weakest in quotes.....period of the band for me. Though i'm putting weakest in terms of like really pushing themselves. alll our straightforward to me. I feel H & G was needed refreasher and re-boot for lack of a better term for the band. Though i still LOVE the hunter. my 2nd fav from a personal angle. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H&G is an awesome raw album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Beyoncé- Lemonade R. Kelly- R. Lemonade is in my top ten albums of the last decade. I grew up loving rnb as much as metal. Loved R. Kelly. I'm actually ashamed I played this album today, he's a disgusting human being. But...I still love his music. I feel dirty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefox4000 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Mastodon-Emperor of Sand (6/10) Not my fav at all. Not bad....but i think the Band feels just a bit stale on here. i think they needed an album to jump start them again. i think they found it on the next album.
