- Blaze Worship
Lovely colour combo on this one. Awesome release overall, the embossed outer sleeve is a nice touch and the mastering is superb, so heavy!
When the bonus track on side D started I thought it was going to be Murder of the Universe 2 but it was still a cool story
- I made a fully tagged collection of Gizz's KEXP sessions with custom artwork for your listening pleasure :)
Sup weirdos, like many of you I love Gizz's KEXP sessions and wanted a local collection I could stream from my plex server. I downloaded some broadcast rips from archive.org of each set but they were completely untagged and had filenames like "KGATLW6718" "01.flac" etc. so I spent the morning tagging them up and making custom artwork!
In this collection there are: KEXP 2015, 2017, 2017 II, 2018, 2019, and 2022 which I believe is all of them. Each set also includes the post-performance interview :)
I chose .M4A ALAC over FLAC because it works great with the MacOS music app (I use it for my main library) whilst still being compatible with pretty much every music player in existence.
And finally here's the download link. (Mega)

- Eye of Gila variant. What y'all get?
I can see what they were going for with it, but some more color would have been dope. The sound is phenomenal though... The drums especially really stand out on it. Great master.
- Eye of Gila gang rise up! What did everyone else cop?
Waiting until after work to give the audio book a listen, but the tracks sound phenomenal. The drums are especially rich on it, gonna be a favorite to listen to for sure.
- Hype train, engage!
Any other vinyl collectors out there getting their shipping confirms yet? What variants did y'all grab? Can't wait to hear how full Motor Spirit sounds on this.
- Favorite Petro song so far?
Currently can’t get enough of Converge and Flamethrower. I’ve been loving this album. Which have y’all been loving the most?
- [Discussion] New Music Friday! What are you listening to? 6/23/23
Hey y'all! Its Friday which means new music. This is your thread to talk about what's released or what you're listening to today. Have a great weekend.
- Anyone knows that riff in Dragon?
There's this riff coming in around the 2:41 minute mark. It sounds eerily familiar. Is it a reprise from something earlier in the album, or a variation of something from another album? Or is it unique and my ears are deceiving me.
timestamp 2:48 in the youtube version: https://youtu.be/IpUKO-WKaqo?t=168

- Have the boys been watching 60 year old B-movies or is this just a coincidence?
I feel like this is a likely source of inspiration for the new album, it wouldn't be the first time they take inspiration from an obscure movie.
