Review: Come Back from the Dead - Ad Nauseam #metalsky thoseonceloyal.wordpress.com/2026/04/23/r...

Listened to a lot of Rage Against the Machine today, as I'll be discussing 'Evil Empire' soon and ooooft, no wonder I became left wing at a young age

Review: Decipher - Thelema @transcendingobs.bsky.social #metalsky thoseonceloyal.wordpress.com/2026/04/20/r...

'Am Fear Liath Mòr' by Cnoc An Tursa could be this year's blackened folk metal anthem

2026 Anniversary Series 038: Neurosis - Through Silver in Blood #metalsky thoseonceloyal.wordpress.com/2026/04/16/2...

Watched that Louis Theroux doc on the Manosphere at last, and if my daughter ever brings one of those kind of cunts home I'll snatch the life right out of him

Hashtag Rate My Vest

We've decided I can't be cancelled for any bands on my battle vest, which is nice to know...

In Glasgow for the Blackbraid gig tonight and I will never forget how much I love this goddamn city

Review: Misotheist - De Pinte #metalsky thoseonceloyal.wordpress.com/2026/04/12/r...

What I actually love most about Hard Boiled is the fact everything explodes for no reason

Hard Boiled is objectively the best Chow Yun Fat movie because he spends the first two minutes of the film jamming on a clarinet

An album for the Kyuss-heads out there

2026 Anniversary Series 036: Lacuna Coil - Karmacode #metalsky thoseonceloyal.wordpress.com/2026/04/09/2...

I think when Dave Gahan says he loves your cover of his work, then we can establish that Lacuna Coil's version of Enjoy the Silence is the best cover of it

Review: Azken Auzi - Infernua @thesleepingshaman.bsky.social #metalsky thoseonceloyal.wordpress.com/2026/04/09/r...

⚡ New Review ⚡ Sandy delves into Azken Auzi ‘Infernua’ – bulldozing brawn, a fanatical worship of the riff, mesmerising power and dense atmospheric shrouds. Read the full review over at The Sleeping Shaman👇 thesleepingshaman.com/reviews/azke... @thekillchainblog.bsky.social

2026 Anniversary Series 034: Thin Lizzy - Jailbreak #metalsky thoseonceloyal.wordpress.com/2026/04/06/2...

Potentially spicy take: Thin Lizzy's 'Emerald' might be the best rock song written in the 70s?

Every time you hear dueling lead guitars in a band and think, fuck that's because of Judas Priest... no it isn't, that's Thin fucking Lizzy baby

THIS IS A MOTHERFUCKING INVITATION!!

Review: Hegeroth - Soaked in Rot #metalsky thoseonceloyal.wordpress.com/2026/04/04/h...

Sabbath may have invented heavy metal in 1970, but Judas Priest perfected it in 1976 and we've been chasing that dragon ever since
