Agrimonia are excellent- their 2018 album Awaken is right up there with the best crusty/sludgy post metal I've heard. Quite reminiscent of the likes of Fall of Efrafa, Anopheli or Morrow. But with less cello.Jinjer - Pices (live version)

The range of Tati's voice is just insane, gives me goosebumps towards the end.

Today I've mostly been listening to the rather unsavorily-named s
tfker's new album, the also unsavouriy-named "Sex with Dead Body".It's actually very good- members of Nuke and a few other Detroit bands doing a punky first-wave black metal album. Bit like a dirtier Midnight.

I tried to watch them at Download last year, they had been dumped in the ten that serves as the 4th stage, we turned up fifteen minutes before they came on hoping to get inside - no chance, it was totally packed and you couldn't even get close to the perimeter of the tent.https://youtu.be/SQNtGoM3FVU

I'd love to see them, they were supposed to be doing a gig in Manchester this summer but obviously not happening now. Great band

Same here. Great band
Luckily I got in there for that Conjurer performance (much better band and performance in my opinion).
It was empty for Ne Obliviscaris and they were the best I saw in there.

No Idea why it’s taken so long as Anthrax are one of my favourite bands (especially the John Bush albums but that’s another thread), but just listened to S.O.D. Fantastic!!!!

Related discussion, but of all the original Big Four, I get the sense Anthrax are the only ones that have actually enjoyed being a band over the last twenty years or so. There's just that little extra street edge to them. Probably held them back a bit way back then, but they just seem the most honest of the lot.
Although Reading wouldn't normally be on my agenda, with RATM playing this year I had booked it.
Just had the email from ticket master that the events been cancelled - so my 20 year wait to see RATM continues...

Sadly I think the same will come of my lifelong quest to see Faith No More. Got tickets for them in June and I just can't see it going ahead. I had tickets for their King For A day tour but it was cancelled following the poor album reception. Then failed to get tickets the next time around, which was their last before breaking up. Missed out on the tour from 2 yrs ago as couldn't get tickets but finally bagged some this time around.
Not had confirmation yet but can't imagine it will be long

Only seen Anthrax & Slayer out of the big four, that was maybe 3 years ago with slayer headlining and Anthrax supporting. I have to admit I prefer John Bush to Joey but it was quite amazing the difference between the two bands, one after another in the same dark venue. Both bloody good like.
The whole thing is rather depressing. Had Gwen Stefani in Vegas cancelled (ok, not heavy, but as a show looked brilliant), Rammstein, MCR with the hope of a support from Thursday cancelled.
Live music is really suffering and cant see local venues hosting smaller bands this side of November.

Agree with that. I think possibly genre helps as they are more on the punk side of things compared to the other 3, with generally more upbeat & stimulating songs, if quite not as legendary as the others.

Probably not a fair sample size, as I've only seen Anthrax and Slayer once each, and both a long time ago (supporting Maiden in 1991 and 2000 respectively). As much as I love the classic Slayer songs, I can honestly say they bored the arse off me, as the whole thing just felt phoned in. No real rapport with the crowd, and no real atmosphere until they played the obvious stuff at the end. Might have been a bad night, as I know people who have seen them dozens of times and will defend them to the death, Anthrax just seemed to be having that much more fun.Only seen Anthrax & Slayer out of the big four, that was maybe 3 years ago with slayer headlining and Anthrax supporting.

Yep, RATM, parkway drive and black crows, all of which I expect to be cancelled.Live music is really suffering and cant see local venues hosting smaller bands this side of November.
Yes yes, I know their not heavy, just bands I've been looking forward to seeing.

Saw Anthrax some time within the last 10 years as we actually went to see Motorhead who were supporting. It was a fvcking amazing night and they had the place bouncing. Unlike any time I've seen Metallica. I wouldn't hesitate to go see them again even though I'm not that familiar with their back catalogue.
