Grabbed some cds from Memento Mori and Xtreem. Xtreem have a decent sale on at the moment.

Tempting me to go on a shopping spree as there are quite a few things on my wish list. Trying to be disciplined though as I’ve got to pay for a course I’m starting shortly.

Yeah. I sort of justify it on the basis it was previously boozing money, haha.

Was in the city for a Conciliation hearing and treated myself to the new Saxon afterwards. I’m really liking this one. Death Metal vocals on a Saxon album? Wowee.

Unlike Battering Ram which flattened out towards the end, this one is much better paced.

I’ve no doubt I’ll like this the more I listen. First impressions are that it’s one of their better ones in recent times - and their recent times have been pretty damn good too.

Ps. Fair perve in the cbd this afternoon

Yeah, just had that song on then. Nice to hear that AA bloke on there. Been pretty good in the city since I got back. Sometimes I just sit and people watch (that's a euphemism) for 15min in Bourke Street after work. Tough life.

You do live the tough life....

Was up the sharp end of town (high end of Collins Street) which helps. Plenty of ‘window lickers’ down Elizabeth St..... viewing not so good.
 
Just woke up. The Last Command at breakfast with the soothing sounds of Mr Lawless.

....can’t think of a better way to ease into the day than the dreamy, doomy soundscape of ‘Widowmaker’.....then straight into Ballcrusher, Wild Child & Blind in Texas to get you going...

Det Som En Gang Var (the song) pretty much sums up that entire wave of BM for me.

Yes, it one of those songs that takes me back to the mid 90s. Love it.

Listened through the Crimson Idol Re-do and it’s decent enough. Still prefer the original but it’s fine. Interestingly one of the 4 ‘missing’ songs added back in is ‘Miss You’ which appeared on their most recent ‘Golgotha’ album. Wonder why it didn’t make the Idol first cut - it’s a great song.
 
I love the ambient track on that album. If fact if I'm going back to Burzum I normally go to Hlidskjalf and Daudi Baldrs. Nothing against his early work, they're all classics, but I love his ambient stuff, too.

I really like the ambient stuff on HLTO and F, though do not like H and DB. Pretty sure I got rid of my copy of each album shortly after I got them. I also haven't bothered with the last couple of ambient albums. Weird but it is what it is.
 
The guitar tone in Burzum's earlier work makes them great.

But Satanic Warmaster have had some stuff I've really enjoyed the sound of in that same way, too.



Big fan of SW. Funny, I don't think he ever did anything original or groundbreaking but what he does he does really well. Has a great ear for melody. Have to get that new comp.
