I never heard of them either. I was looking at the Record of the Week section of Pirate Records and saw another of their albums was one of their favourite records of last week. I stoellledededed all their albums but love this, their most recent.

Pirate Press Records are artists.

I've listened to that today, it leans more towards hardcore and sludge and is less melodic than Spiral...

To be decent, this would have to be a huge huge improvement on Static Tensions, which was ass. As is this whole Mastodon/Baroness/John Baizley scene: all artwork and no good music.
I have read reviews that they have gone in a more melodic/grunge direction, so I consider giving them another go. But no hurry.

I saw them open for Converge. They didn't really grab me, but I was pumped for Converge... being the pimperly, impressionable teenager I am.

I missed that
"Helmet" played Meantime right? When I saw them last year, only the old songs were any good live...
And I really like the new album :?

Yeah he played the whole album. I've never been to in to them but I enjoyed it live. The highlight for me was St Vitus tho.
