Looks like Type O Negative "October Rust" then Birthday Massacre "Nothing and Nowhere" and then Mortiis "The Smell of Rain".

Lots of hrs on YT and checking music sites/mags......yeah, new stuff sucks.

Been bummed since Peter Steele passed. Kid scored tix to see Maiden next month and I really am not thrilled to go.

Well I am not familiar with Maiden's new album "The Book of Souls". Caught a few tunes at the show in Chicago.
Will spin the album tonight.
Newer stuff seems to be too wordy, different in style.

I always do a 3 full uninterrupted listens before review.
As mood and other can influence things.

I am out of Trooper Ale though......which sucks big time.
