I could go on…these albums have been in steady rotation for over a decade in my CD players.
Maybe I’m old, but the new music these days sucks. The 90’s kicked ass.
Dude. Nice. Love old solid state stuf… I have tons of it. As for poor old lou, ever hear their album “sin”? So good. Glad to see someone gettin’ in to the old school christian hardcore. Everdown’s “straining” is a phenomonal album. I lost my copy years ago. Brandon ebel/tooth and nail/ss/bec used to have it going on… I feel they have really gone to pot… The stuff put out now is garbage.
DJ Shadow is revolutionary. His “six days remix” is one of the best tracks I’ve heard. Also, portishead is amazing. “Wandering star” is my favorite track of theirs.
I haven’t listened to much Solid State/Tooth and Nail stuff in a long time.
About shat myself when listening to Liquid Metal on XM and there was a new Living Sacrifice song being played. Whatever they’re doing nowadays it’s working.
