Not a fan either. They are one of only a handful of traditional rock bands still out there fighting the good fight and this thing is a mess. Very disappointed. If I was Taylor Hawkins I would take a break from Dave Grohl for a time and pull the trigger on the rumored hook up with the remaining guys from Rush and take an act out on the road under a new name playing Rush tunes.

One man band..... This one is currenty #3 on Metal Storm for 2021. It took me awhile to get used to it and liked the 2nd side much better.... OK, well... technically this is a double LP....

Best Song: Transcending Antecedent Visions [74.0]
Black/Death Metal
This was a bit strange and really not sure if Black/Death Metal covers it but that is what they call it so be it. Unfortunately I only liked 1 of the 5 tracks on the album but it was interestingly weird enough for me to listen to all of it.

My Ratings: 70.413
Rank: 1637 (out of 2036)
Best Song: Concrete God [73.0]
Sludge/Post Metal
First time hearing this band and basically if it came on the radio I would not get up to change it but I would not go put in the CD if I had it either.

Acid Mammoth - Caravan (2021)
My Ratings: 79.930
Rank: 233 (out of 2040)
Best Song: Psychedelic Wasteland [84.0]
Doom Metal/Stoner Rock
Solid album though falls short of last years great album but found it better than their debut. Should be in my top for 2021 list...
"It is a witchy album for witchy ears, a heavy opus that has emerged straight from the deepest abyss.
Once again the father and son duo on guitars offer the listener a horde of crushing, fuzzy, Iommi riffs while the mammoth bass tears down everything in its path with its acid hooves. Its drums are thundering unearthly beats of harrowing doom while its mesmerizing vocals will bewitch you with their words of woe. Heavier and more diverse than its predecessor, “Caravan” is here to tear you down with its acid tusks. Prepare to be doomed!!! " ... bandcamp

Best Song: Pistol Star [77.2]

It has been awhile since I have listened to Chevelle. Saw them a couple of times when they first started out and they were very raw sounding. This new album surprisingly to me sounds much like the older stuff which is a good thing. This one sounded pretty good.

For some reason I did not check this album out when I did the year 1987, maybe I was unable to hear it... who knows but man the first side of this one is great but the 2nd side was a huge drop off for me. Still a solid album.
