Symphonic death metal 🤘 I realized a bit ago I slept on that side of death metal a bit this year. Time to see what I missed out on.

I know my personality has basically become "the death metal guy" these days, but I'm here to inform you: it's not changing, deal with it nerds. Going to spend from now until the new year listening to all the death albums I picked up that were released this year to determine a top 10 of releases.

Bear Mace 🤘 Fucking awesome death metal.

Have I ever mentioned how perfect Bolt Thrower's "Mercenary" is? Because that album is peak perfection.

Bolt Thrower and Dismember for work tonight. Here's to hoping the morning Black Friday shoppers aren't TOO bad. Luckily I only deal with them for an hour.

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you've been to Rammstein Dir En Grey AC/DC deadmau5 Amon Amarth

I might be a weird hermit but my music taste is fucking impeccable. Go smoke some weed and enjoy some stoner metal/rock. Band list in alt text.

Swedish desert rock feels like an oxymoron.

Not a band shirt, but metal as fuck and my favorite kaiju because I'm a fucking nerd. This is now my favorite shirt.

Stoned, Minecraft, and some rad as fuck trad/glam metal 🤘 I might be boring but I enjoy what I do.

Total Annihilation and Nightbearer are doing a show together, but since I can't go, I'm just going to listen to a playlist of both bands. Also, new Total Annihilation album next year. Fuck yeah 🤘

Made yet another nearly 24 hour long playlist of thrash/death/melodeath. So many killer albums exist in this world, and alas I am a mere mortal with finite time.

I am here, once again, defending this as the best Skeletonwitch album hands down.

I do love how often vocals don't kick in until half way through a song in death metal. Until then it's all just riffs and vibes.

Ripped to Shreds fucking rips.

God this song rules. youtu.be/IaH6St6ktGY?...

I can't believe I went so long without listening to Omnium Gatherum. I have so much melodeath to listen to. I think I'm just gonna do a mega playlist.

In Mourning Insomnium Omnium Gatherum The holy trinity of melodeath (imo).

Oh yeah, I forgot that Omnium Gatherum album dropped. I know what I'm listening to tonight at work. Been a long time since I listened to them anyway.

It's death metal night 🤘

ity Boy Band Shirts 25: Mötley Crüe The absolute kings of sleaze, peak glam metal. Out of the entire glam scene, no one nailed the overall vibe of it better than they did in the 80's. While they ended up falling off in the 90's, their peak was so high.

It's time I die on this hill again: this album absolutely fucks. Nu metal will always be my biggest love.

Trying to avoid getting hit in the head by a box on a top shelf, hit the back of my head on a cart behind me. Story of my life.

For a self titled album, this Mötley Crüe album sure doesn't sound like them.

Bad Boy Band Shirt #24: Whitesnake Sometimes, it smacks me in the face that I'm a mid-30's, white, Midwestern dude like a brick. And hard rock is the fastest way that brick travels to me. But I fucking love this stuff.

Fucking Whitesnake 🤘

Band Shirts and Headbanging #23: Quiet Riot So I fucking LOVE hair/glam metal. I was raised on this stuff. And I have to say, Quiet Riot is my favorite of glam metal. Though their is quite a bit of a caveat.

And then one day, quite expectedly, Peter found Jesus. #grickledoodle #found #cartoon #art #drawing #funny

I keep forgetting: which is the okay band and which was the sketch one; Batushka or Patriarkh?

THE SUN NEVER SETS ON SOULS ON THE RUN THE WILD AND THE YOUNG youtu.be/-EsjbSkFwZM?...

This is basically what it's like where I live. The psychic damage I receive on a daily basis from being more metal than anyone around me...

BANG YOUR HEAD METAL HEALTH WILL DRIVE YOU MAD

Y'all know what time it is: smoke weed and Minecraft time. Listening to cyberpunk synthwave as my stoned ass eventually passes out. I know, I'm just so cool and interesting.

We've gone completely cyberpunk folks.

In the past 24 hour I have seen at least 13 posts on FB about the dipshit from Disturbed getting married. Jesus fucking God, if David Dipshit and Ronnie Trashy died, I feel many of these "metal news outlets" would collapse with nothing else to talk about.

Half of this playlist is more club style, the other is noisy industrial, but it's all 100% cyberpunk as fuck and absolutely wrecks. Yeah, it's not metal, but just trust me. These artists are amazing. bandcamp.com/psyenceficti...

Made a Bandcamp playlist of Lazerpunk. Come get some sick as fuck cyberpunk synthwave in your face. I am so grateful I was lucky enough to catch him live years ago. bandcamp.com/psyenceficti...

Spoil alert: no matter how well it mimics, it will never sound like the real thing. And if you think it does, it's because you're fucking lazy and have no respect for music.

A coworker last night at work attempted to talk to me about AI music being good, I looked them dead in the eye and said they will never convince me to buy into that garbage.

For once, I'm listening to something that ISN'T metal (though there is some overlap). Carpenter Brut Perturbator Lazerpunk GosT bandcamp.com/psyenceficti...

A Surprise Band Shirt Posting: In Mourning Long story short, did not expect to this shirt in the mail but I'm thrilled! In Mourning is absolutely in my top 3 melodic death/death-doom bands of all time. Anyone that knows me, knows I am a massive melodeath fan so that placing is not made lightly.

Free band name: Bone Labyrinth

Apparently Norwegian authorities a re in a search for some missing black metal musicians in a forest. Look guys, y'all really need to get some basic outdoor navigation skills, lest you end up a meme. But hey, maybe a killer album will come from this.

Surviving work tonight on a steady stream of arena/hard rock and hair metal. 80's metal and rock was at such a peak.

Being 100% honest, AC/DC has probably made the biggest impact on me and is legit the only band that could actually be my all time favorite. I have every album, I've listened to them more than I can count, seeing them live was a massive bucket list check mark. I fucking love them beyond reason.

Making a hard/arena rock and hair/glam metal playlist that totally rules, then I got to AC/DC and now that's all I can listen to.
