Heard any of them? Thoughts? I'm familiar with Swim School, some of their stuff is straight from the My Bloody Valentine playbook but songs like Delirious are more in keeping with a lot of what's been going on in the scene with bands like Spyres and Dead Pony. Mrs B claims I've heard most of them (except Sunstinger and Transmission Suite) via her playlists in the car but I can't place any of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastronaut 1236 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 @sammynb was it yourself that saw Carcass back in the late 80's? Fwiw the death metal scene up here is on fire right now if you still have time for any of that. Penny Coffin, Brainbath, Rancid Cadaver, Coffin Mulch all worth checking out. Far cry from shoegaze or dreampop right enough but the whole scene is really thriving right now which is surprising given that it's all a bit of a throwback to late 80's scene when Carcass were coming through. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it was me, for some reason I like grindcore, not a metal fan by any stretch of the imagination. I'll check them out, thanks. BTW you know there is this whole slowcore/shoegaze genre around at the moment called Blackgaze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that reaction a lot to be honest. While we're talking about Scottish bands and I've already been called out for lowering the tone I might as well go all in the Gallus album this year deserved a lot more attention than it seemed to get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm often reminded I'm also not a metal fan by any stretch whenever I talk to other self-professed metalheads. "Modern" metal peaked here and died long before Des left the band of you ask me. It can probably be resuscitated but it will take an army of drummers like Des Kensel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 38982 Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I did a bit of roadie-ing for a mate who was in a mildly successful Metal band way back when - Tysondog. Absolute shite But it was fun, I think. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contentious, but you're not far wrong. That year was a big turning point in the metal scene. Max Cavalera has a lot to answer for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammynb 2929 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 The podcast I posted above with the Ausgaze episode, did a punk now and then episode - https://eardrumbuzzradio.podbean.com/e/vapour-trail-live-punks-not-dead-episode/ And of course Suicidal Tendencies were on it and I have not heard this song in so long. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite like that, think I'll have to find the album now. Another great Scottish release from this year was Current Affair's new one (Gemmill just stop now mate, it's not for you.) Also Lichen Slow's album, with Middleton from Arab Strap, was another that seemed to pass under the radar. See the Mary Chain have just announce a new album first in about ten year.

sammynb 2929 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 That's not metal young Alex! I do enjoy Faith No More but they are to blame for the shite that is Limp Biscuit, etc. At least System of a Down were interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30652 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I don’t really think they were much cop post- Jim Martin and he was the most old skool ‘metal’ of the lot of them. His Sabbath-like riffs were what made them ‘metal’ imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing about FNM, isn't it, their two main members left, Martin and Mosley and then they went on to commercial success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin was still around for The Real Thing and Angel Dust. Which were commercially successful. Chuck Mosley left after Introduce Yourself, which was actually their second album, although I think their debut didn’t even get a CD release. I think Mosley might have been involved in writing The Real Thing but left before it was recorded. Introduce Yourself is a great album btw. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
