I'm glad this is in such high demand, hoping this will be the kick up the arse they need to re-issue the whole discography.

Stress On The Sky reacted to lgfuad in I don't like music anymore
Thanks man. I've been trying pretty hard recently listening to music and watching a few films to try and get my interest back but it's not been terribly successful. I just can't enjoy anything I used to love doing and it's hard. I hope you're doing ok.
New Mongol Horde songs sounds hopeful! I was worried this was going to just be a one-off album. It's been a while since they released it but I guess Frank has other priorities which is fair enough.
I'm actually quite keen to check out Biffy Clyro now. Had no idea they used to be heavier.
I've not heard of Remote Viewing, thanks!
You've given me a lot to check out. Thanks for that, it's a big help.

Great guy. Check out his old band Reuben if you haven't already, they only put out three albums but they are all stellar. Lenman n a lot of his chums were the bands I grew up on so I have a few other recommendations for hard hitting rock from the same UK scene. Also Mr Lenman has just announced a new live LP featuring an acoustic set performed at St Pancras Old Church.
As I see you've spotted Frank Turner's hardcore project Mongol Horde you may also be interested in his band from way back when featuring the same drummer called Million Dead. They're post-hardcore bliss, two albums, both great. The bassist went on to be part of Future Of The Left a rather more oddball heavy act made up of ex-noise rockers Mclusky. The drummer also had a sludge/noise/metal band called palehorse but those guys are insanely heavy in comparison and not walking the line of melodic and hardcore. Saw Mongol Horde earlier this year you may get a second album before too long.
There's a whole collection of related bands you may dig like Sucioperro (have Lenman featured on a few tracks but sadly mostly defunct now and no vinyl still 4 albums and a tonne of great EPs). You might also be interested in old school Biffy Clyro the new stuff is polished to pop rock standards that may make you turn your nose up initially but the first three albums Blackened Sky, Vertigo Of Bliss and Infinity Land are twisted and choc full of heavy moments. Sucioperro & Biffy Clyro front men have a bizarre side project called Marmaduke Duke as well although the third album seems like its never coming out.

You're more than welcome. I got a few kneejerk cds from back in the day too. When I saw the London leg of the Mongol Horde tour they did play a couple of new tunes so as soon as Frank has a break from his Billy Bragg routine we may get something new.
You're spot on as far as Biffy Clyro goes these days, since 2007 theyve been getting more commercial for sure. I can still stomach it but I've been a rabid fan for 16 odd years so I'm a little biased. Those first three albums though strike a great balance between melodic and chaotic and are all probably in my top all time albums. I do miss Simon's screams.
If you wind up enjoying Palehorse but want more after you've gotten through their discography most of the band are now in an outfit called Remote Viewing who just dropped their album this year.
Also it goes without saying but I hope you feel better soon. I struggle off and on with depression myself n its a cruel mistress especially when it turns a passion into ashes.

I know of Reuben from years back but I've never listened to them. I'll check them out.
I also know Million Dead but never got into them. I'm actually old enough to have known his emo type band Kneejerk wayyyyyyy back in the day. They're a bit of an acquired taste but I love their song "Wire Wool". I think I've listened to Palehorse before too but I'll check them out again. I don't mind heavy stuff. I was reading about Mongol Horde and apparently their tour earlier this year was the first one they've done since the album? I'm not holding my breath for them to tour again but I would absolutely love to see them live. If they tour, I'll be there. They played King Tuts in Glasgow which has a capacity of about 450 I think. That would've been amazing. So gutted I was late in discovering them. Fingers crossed for a new album and a tour. Oh and Future of the Left I've again heard of but never listened to.
I know of Sucioperro and and Biffy Clyro but always assumed they were poppy rock bands so never checked them out as it's not really my thing. I'll do that now. I think I listened to Marmaduke Duke years ago but can't remember much about them. I'll also give them a spin.
Thanks a lot for your suggestions, means a lot.

Stress On The Sky got a reaction from Tommy in The Mark Kozelek/Sun Kil Moon/Red House Painters thread
Wow that pretty much sums up my exact cut off point. I didn't really dig Among the leaves but its the last one I bought outright. Benji was critically lauded n I gave it a few cursory listens but it never clicked. Partly because it is such a personal release. I get that its dealing with his actual family so I see the merit of naming individuals he knows in each song but somehow it isn't as relatable as other songwriters attempts to tackle grief and the fear of mortality and this at least for me is in part because of the inclusion of such specific minutiae, down the line that seems to have been the facet of the album he carried forward until we land where we are now: Records about buying churros from a gas station on his way to Nantucket.
Gimme April and Admiral Fell Promises re-issues and then I can stop opening this thread.

Stress On The Sky got a reaction from helsabot in PO: Dear And The Headlights - Small Steps, Heavy Hooves//Drunk Like Bible Times
copped one in spite of the fact that I know I'll get burned for importing it. Cannot stop listening to Small steps. Had never heard these guys before this week but they are just amazing. The curse of finding new music through here is strong, my bank account weeps.

Ouchy. Pretty brutal stuff indeed. If it's just the extra tracks you're looking for I can possibly send them over or something?

I had to pick the /100 edition, even though I had the regular pressing. Amazing album, and supporting a local artist.

Stress On The Sky reacted to Rip in Official Flenser Releases Thread - Always Flensing
Grabbed the black/red splatter of Echo Beds and the /100 Drowse (since I missed out on the first press).
Also finally gave me an excuse to grab Deathconsciousness.
