Need a little box with which track y’all are talking about when you go through the album or something for all the dumb/short attention span listeners out there (me)

Holy shit didn t mentioned Darkthrone! Or Ulver? Way befor weakling. The rev made me want to check this out asap though.

What song is that in the intro?

Wormwitch kicks ass! For sure one of my top BM albums of the year! Great review.

Knee Deep in the Head gives it such a different context than the real name😂

Skramz is the ONLY acceptable word for this! C'mon, now!

Didn't do enough for me to stand out from the pack on first listening but may be it will on a second try

I cannot believe I have never noticed that before. I’ve listened to Hate Grows Stronger so much and I’ve never noticed that it was in 15/16. Justin is absolutely right. The intro is in 4 but the first and second verse is in 15 but it’s so incredibly slow it’s almost hard to tell. You really have to focus when counting. You could almost blame it on syncopation(dotted quarter with a dotted eighth) or really odd phrasing but no. You have the slight interruption before the 1 making it apparent it’s in 15. Now I highly doubt any of them even noticed that but still cool nonetheless.

Keep the mastodon content coming

Ok.... Bucket Full of Teeth was only Will.... Bucket's drummer was Matt who played in Cancer Kids and Brad who was in Wolves/OG Orchid bassist.......Andy Skelly was not the drummer for Bucket. Unless of course you're talking about Funkbucket.... lol... Because Andy did play in a band called Funkbucket with Evan from Forcefedglass/Light The Fuse and Pat who was in the OG lineup of Daughters.... which was located on Cape Cod. Andy and Stephen both played in a band called The Last Forty Seconds while Will was still playing in Orchid. TLFS original bassist was actually Timmy from Wolves before Steveo took over. Both Andy and Stevo moved into the Montegue house before Ampere started..... the band started because they were literally living together and around each other often. Unicoroner featured Meghan on bass and came about after Ampere had started. OK.... so the demo on discogs LOLOLOL... I actually posted that..... there were two versions... one in a stapled bag and one in a jcard set up. Stephen was the one who actually made the demos.... most of them were just given out to a bunch of us who knew them around the first few shows. I don't think they planned on doing this band quite as long as they did at that point. At that point it was just a fun exercise trying to recapture that super intense energy of bands like Antioch Arrow.... playing like 8 minute sets. I do know for a fact if you were to reach out to any one of these four they would be happy to talk about it. Some of the most genuine people on the face of the planet.

This was a fun walk down memory lane, because Wolves was the first live show I ever went to, and I ended up listening to Ampere and Bucket Full of Teeth later

Enjoying your commentary and insight, but I really would have hoped you at least play some passages for people that never heard of the band.

Civerous rules.

I love your podcast and this album! It keeps me entertained and informed on my time off. Keep up the great work! Also I loved the deep dive on Thou and the Mastadon and Lamb of God pods!

I saw them on that G'n'R + Soundgarden tour. Classic Patton moment: a bottle of piss launched from the audience and hit him in the face. He picked it up and drenched himself in it then kicked the bottle back into the crowd.

babe, riff worship uploaded

This show fucking rules

great review!

Baroness is one of those transcendental bands to me. It's well thought but spontaneous, it's distorted but upbeat, and it's polished without losing any edge. It's truly a band for people who simply like music, regardless of genre or allegiances.

I fucking loved the cloud rat tour i still have my shirt from that show! Saw it in portland and the body showed up and everyone who was on the tour played parts of the drum kits to accompany a 10 min body noise set. Best show i have ever been to

Fuck yes, gorgeous album

Yiur info us really iffynit being a dick just saying

this album is a highway straight to riff city.

I first heard of malignancy because Roger from Mortician played drums for them, great band.

Awesome video. Criminally underrated grind classic. Probably their best one since it started their love for random weirdness within their grind mastery.

wow mark is so hot

Thier collab with the body is one of my favorite heavy albums of all time

KILLER.

When people ask me what my favorite riff is I say anything Matt Pike creates and walk away from the conversation. All hail the king!

Thou's bibliography is prolific to say the least, these guys know riffs!

I've enjoyed everything this band has put out, this album has expanded their sound a little. The demo/ep sounded like a mix of mortician & crowbar to me, this new album is the best thing they've done.

Thx you a lot guys! For fans like me who are not born in America and don't know that much to understand the full picture all those series was kinda like "door" to see much more. Great work! And yeah! It was really inspiring to re-listen ALL the stuff :D

Great interview…in all seriousness..I really would like to know what AIC live pre Dirt show that Andy was talking about…

A Matthew sighting here is unprecedented, incredible work boys

As a fan of Thou since Autopsy Kitchen released Peasant, this has been quite a lovely series. Currently listening and watching this from work

My all time favorite guitarist. I am huge King fan since 1987 and Abigail.

From Lafayette Louisiana but been in Baton Rouge the past 8 and THOU have become one of my top 5! Acid bath will always hold the first spot. THOU'S new release (umbilical) will be album of the year! It sounds like the 90 's!! I get very strong SHRUM vibes from the album and it is fucking awesome! Got into THOU from their cover of The Lasting Dose (Crowbar) then Changeling Prince and Their Hooves Carved Crators in the Earth.

Absolutely loving UMBILICAL! Reminds me a ton of SHRUM.... and basically just that 90s sounding metal. Also very grungy! Great stuff!

I also got into coalesce right as converge became a huge deal to me. Also curl up and die, BBTS, ETID, DEP and others

Awesome interview

Nick’s a legend. One of my fav bassists. Dudes funny and cool as hell

Emotional Terrorists Base reminds me on Admiral Angry (like on sex with a stranger) one of my most favorite band of all time

Thanks for doing the whole podcast and this whole review. I've been losing my shit listening to this album today. This band deserves so much respect and is a reason a lot of us are in bands. This may be the best Thou album upon first listen. What they did here is condense so many influences into a smaller window, and they did it with a lot of fucking class

Ok, about that tour lineup. Thou, Conan and Monolord?! That would fucking rule. But, I'd like to add Primitive Man to the bill. Thou, Monolord and Primitive Man are pretty much my 3 favorite bands. I love Conan, too. Umbilical is amazing. I love the new Thou album 🤘🔥💚

Bro I always thought your handle was daily boozer 😂! I'm an idiot. Keep rocking man🤟

🤘🏼

learning a lot from these vids - comprehensive as fuck yo! that new brat record rules :)

I could listen to this all day.

I love y’all’s passion! Add some 15 second sound clips fair use clause the powers that be won’t mess with you🤘🏼
