Oh jeez love those guys

I like that French band Gojira as well.

When I read they were from Bayonne I immediately thought NJ.

The best part of working from home in my basement is being able to listen to louder music while I am working and listen to a lot more music.

Children of Bodom Blooddrunk is a ####ing awesome album.

Thanks for this. I have been on a metalcore kick recently and this album is an awesome break from that.

That is some interesting stuff. That last one I really like, and I watched some live stuff that was pretty awesome too. That would be a great concert.... at some point in the future.

So Poppy is a metal singer now. Don't know who poppy is? Weird AF, that's who she is. Anywho, she's touring with Gojira and Deftones this summer. Think of her as Babymetal meets Manson meets bubble gum pop. It's all absurd but fascinating given were she was 2 to 5 years ago.

Definitely a trip down the rabbit hole if you choose to brush up on Poppy. I generally find her salad fingers level of disturbing. But worth checking out.

yup, only found out about her a couple of weeks ago and got hooked. Really good album, weird and fascinating AF. There's a Manson/NIN vibe to a lot of the songs that I really like. And I always appreciate genre-mixing chaos so I shouldn't be too surprised that I actually like it.

I only know of her because she's performed a couple of times on NXT.

I posted this in one of the other music threads months back as I wasn't sure what to make of this but it's grown on me. IMO her new album is actually pretty good. Heavy metal with a bit of pop fluff which isn't for everyone but at the same time there's some untapped creativity here that is fascinating. I'm not sure what the long term shelf life is for this type of music but in small doses I actually find it quite entertaining to listen to. Personally I feel she could probably shed the whole pop transition thing and go all heavy metal as she can sing, has some presence, and the band sounds tight.

yeah we'll see, after this album there's a number of directions that she could go. But she's with a good metal label now (Sumerian Records), which doesn't hurt.

either way, in a time where many metal bands gravitate to mainstream I do appreciate acts that pull out the UNO reverse card, so to speak. I've seen Youtube comments like "wth, we live in a world where Poppy is actually heavier than Bring Me The Horizon" ... ain't that the truth.

I had no idea synthwave pirate metal was a thing, or that it would be so catchy

They're generally right on the border of being too ridiculous for their own good, but they have some pretty great catchy songs:

One of my favourite bands finally finished re-recording and re-releasing their old albums that were being held captive by their previous label.





Lots of sax and flute which both work great for them.
