In fact, Punisher was the 4th child hanging from the tree, the only one with a beard. Then Santanchè organized a petition to free him. @Kosmo: when you get hanged, kick. And your shoes will fly off your feet. So much so that in the Old West there was the saying: "Die with your boots on", meaning to die still wearing your boots.

"You had the feeling that once you stepped in there, it wasn't you choosing the record, but the record choosing you"... you said it all.
The Oscillation Out Of Phase

"the mind travels but the ass moves too." A bit like: "you feel it in the throat, and also in the nose." Now I understand this sensation as if... absorption!

Damn the puppet!!!! I swear I was almost done with this! Well: great review. And a big, huge album: I might be cursing, but I like it almost more than the first one!!
Buzzov-en Welcome to Violence

I like sludge because it's almost always played by really badass people. Bongzilla, who would play TV proclamations against drug use between songs, Church Of Misery, who only do concepts about serial killers... Sludge is the music of the office worker who, after 8 hours plus lunch break of harassment from the boss, gets in the car and freaks out the mom taking her kid to judo by making a deep voice and a mean face at the traffic light. Sludge gives the former medallion wearer all the frenzy and voltage of metal, but without the ridiculousness of metal (solos, macho poses, studs, and all that nonsense). Against the wear and tear of modern life, sludge is almost better than Cynar.

I instead take the opportunity to say that I've hated sludge for years. Then, a while ago, I found a cassette by EyeHateGod and now I almost only listen to that. But ever since I started getting back into sludge and trying to do the deep voice like Phil Anselmo with nails under my fingernails, I've developed two pneumothoraxes. So I think I’ll ask Enea to lend me something by Buscaglione. These guys are badass.

I haven't listened to him in ages. What Caz says is true: every album is (more or less) a story unto itself. The genre is the same, the sound is theirs, yet each of their albums has something that makes it "different." I, for instance, still prefer the ultra-rotten sound of Dopethrone.
Pentagram Day of Reckoning
Voto:
Great review and an excellent, truly outstanding album. It’s a tough battle between this one and the first. The first has the dirty sounds, this one has Burning Saviour which alone is worth the album and remains my favorite song by Pentagram. By the way, it really pisses me off because it was used as a monicker by one of the most unfortunate bands in the Göteborg revival scene... @Superboia: for Pentagram, just grab the first two blindly. You can’t go wrong. A sort of compilation of tracks from the '70s called "First Daze Here" has also been released. If instead you want to dive into more recent bands, check out Wino's stuff. From The Hidden Hand to Spirit Caravan (their Jug Fulla Sun is nothing short of a masterpiece).
Slayer World Painted Blood
Voto:
Well... I've only listened to it a couple of times, but it really seemed quite bad to me: fragmented, trivial (but how awful are the riffs of Human Strain???), with some embarrassing sounds, even verbose in some songs (e.g.: the title track), with Araya going through a major, major crisis. Nowadays, every time Slayer releases something, we end up talking more about their career and their role in the current metal scene than about the album... pretty much like what happens with every "legend" in music.

Such a shame the few comments. Lush proposal.
