Basically sounds like Monotheist part II. Which should excite a couple of
people in here. I found the first track a bit boring but the second one
rules, much more like early Frost!

Does anyone know what the release date will be?

I found it funny that Dark Tranquillity had just entered the studio
to record their new album, and there is a set release date. What if
they run into problems recording it and can't make the date?

I really wasn't sure what to think after CF disbanded, but this
exceeds my expectations greatly. I'm really looking forward to this
album now.

I found Monotheist to be excellent, as have a lot of listeners.
Although it may not be troo-cvlt enough for you.

While I disagree with TJ on a semi-regular basis, I do think he gets
unfairly stereotyped into that tr00 kvlt thing.

Not liking a popular (or semi-popular) band does not automatically
mean somebody has a counterculture agenda.

Besides, it distracts from poking Ian for liking In Flames!

I don`t think TJ dislikes Celtic Frost. In fact I`m sure he`s a fan of the
early albums. It does strike me as unusual he wouldn`t have sought out a new
album by them, especially one that`s been so well received and with a
reputation for being such a grim affair. I do like it when I`m in the mood
but if I`m not...it`s too damn gloomy for me!

It's a joke. A good natured ribbing of TJ. I know it rolls off of

It alters my mood. I have to watch out with this album, elsewise I
could be called to the office. When I listen at work, that is.

I fucking love Monotheist, almost as much as their classics. In fact,
I like it as much as To Mega Therion and obviously *light years* more
than Vanity/Nemesis (yawn).

While I understand that it's a "mood" album for some, I could put this
thing on at any time.

I have heard the album. I like some of it, but haven't played it in
years, and not since Monotheist was released.

That's 4 times more than a lot of people can handle. So, Monotheist?
what 50 plays or more?

Tom

It's at least that many for me.

It's that good, but I don't know that I could manage to make it a
top ten listen for the decade.

I dig the second song, I went to it first off Ian's comments, but
will listen to the first song (longer) next.

Not knowing much about GD, except I dislike them, these are the two

Green Day - 1,039 Smoothed Out Slappy Hours (pop punk)
Green Day - Kerrplunk! (pop Punk)

Yeah. Im a moderate fan of top notch pop punk, and the 2 lookout!
releases fall into that category. Honestly much more into the ramones/
queers/screeching weasel than green day. Long story short is theres a
section in my 300cd changer devoted to the last X discs I've purchased
where X is the size of a smallish cd book that I can pack up if im
gonna be away for a few days. Green day had been in there to the
point where they were getting replaced in the "newest" section and got
a final listen before either being filed with my other discs or going
into the main section of the changer with the favorites.

I have some vinyl records, but no turntable to play them on. I have
seen some that are made to hook up to a computer. But I doubt I'd ever
really want to play records again.
