Metal Church!
« on: October 04, 2018, 11:49:54 AM »
The fantastic METAL CHURCH are going to release a new album on December 7th called DAMNED IF YOU DO!!!

https://www.ratpakrecordsamerica.com/metal-church

I just pre-ordered the CD/T-Shirt bundle! Can't bloody wait!!


XI was Album of the year in 2016 so I wonder can this do the same....it's gonna be going up against some fantastic albums like, Forever Warriors, Forever United by Doro, The Redemption Of William Black from Blaze Bayley and the fantastic Dream Child debut Until Death We Meet Again...but I'm thinking if anyone can top those albums it's Metal Church with Mike Howe at the healm!

XI was a great comeback album for the band. It was a very strong record and I am sure that they will be able to come up with more Metal greatness.

Looking forward to the new album. Hasn't been a great year for releases so a new Metal Church album will be welcome, especially given the strength of their last studio album.

Been listening to Damned If You Do pretty much non stop since I got it...

Gotta say it is pretty awesome.

Very classic MC. But there is one little gripe though...usually they've always had atleast one or two bigger tracks...this album is pretty much only filled with fast rockers. I would have loved to hear a bit more massive and versatile track like End Of The Age or Anthem To The Estranged...

But the riffs rock and Mike's vocals are still out of this world awesome! Album of the year material this one for sure!

Really?? I did not know that was an option - if the place I ordered it from does not get it soon I may go that route. Thanks for making me aware!!

Given Damned if you do four listens so far and it's gotten better with each listen. Reviews have been mixed online that I've seen which I don't get becuase if you loved XI you can't not love this album. I'd say it's at least the equal of XI and might even edge it out. A little too early for me to put it in album of the year category and it's gonna take a lot to beat Firepower but I think its definitely in the top five conversation.
