Metal/Rock/Industrial The metal thread \m/

HELL YES! Forbidden is coming back!

Chris Kontos will be on drums, and local Bay Area hero Norman Skinner on vocals.

Skinner is a beast, I was calling this right after seeing the Bay Area Interthrashional show:

I just saw Cannibal Corpse for the first time. They didn't disappoint.

Friends that had seen them before told me they were a death metal machine live, but after watching some live footage on YouTube from the last 10 years I was worried they'd be a bit naff.

They were not. Brutal sound and so tight. Some of the extended blasts slowed down a bit as they went on, but they're like 80 years old now so I'll forgive Paul M for that. Magnanimous soul that I am.

Yeah I'm waiting on a tour by them, they come down here a bit I believe. I'm kind of a new fan, their latest album absolutely rips.

I only appreciated last night that it's actually a good time to see them. They have Erik Rutan on board these days, and he's a death metal god. I saw him back in the 90's playing with Morbid Angel on their 'Domination' tour, and then again last night as he settles into his autumnal years with Cannibal Corpse. What a dude.
 
2nd Extreme single off their new album dropping in June '23 :).....Extreme are waaaay better than 90% of (overrated) HM bands out there today !

CC is an example of what a top-level band should bring in terms of professionalism. I haven't had any interest in their studio stuff for years (just looked it up and the last album I recognise a song from is Torture), but would still see them live knowing that you can safely expect a top-quality performance.

I know what you mean. I certainly don't have an encyclopaedic knowledge of their back catalogue. But every album has a few genuine bangers on there, and the latest album is no exception. Definitely worth a listen. 'Slowly Sawn' might be my pick.
 
Happy Birthday Paul Baloff!

The GOAT Metal front man... so fuckin' Heavy.

Destroy something in his honor... property... relationships... lives... all qualify.
