Iron Age - The Sleeping Eye, Cyclopean 2009
I hate the metalcore/crossover/nyhc style. I think its boring and has been done to death; however this record rules. the spacey, stoner aesthetic makes the heaviness of the music more welcome to me than other bands playing this style. This is about as far into the metal spectrum that a hardcore band can go and not completely suck. For fans of both smoking weed and lifting weights.
Best songs: Burden of Empire, The Way is Narrow
7/10
Other stuff I've been playing lately:
His Hero is Gone - 15 Counts/Monuments to Thieves
The originators, often copied but never matched.
Velvet Underground - s/t
There's nothing better in the world to listen to late at night or just mellow out
Die Kreuzen - Cows and beer
Void side of the split with the faith
Class hardcore records, not copied nearly enough.
Tom Waits - Rain dogs
The best record for the weather we've been having this summer. I love this record so much. Its absolutely perfect, best atmosphere on any record I've ever heard.
