Dont know if I ever gave my thoughts on this album, but
Ronald Jenkees - Days Away 10/10 If this style of music is your thing, you absolutely can't go wrong with Jenkees. Where 'Disorganized Fun' was all about the "solo", leading you through every song with a sick keyboard-shredding riff every time, Days Away is way more subtler than that. He really tries new things, the solo becomes more of a background noise while the rhythm and beat takes the lead. It's such a subtle album that it took a few listens before it clicked. Now, it's possibly my favorite thing he's put out. If you're not aware of who Ronald Jenkees is, fucking YOUTUBE THAT SHIT GOD DAMN IT. Sidetracked is possibly one of the sickest songs I've ever heard. |

I liked Hellbilly Deluxe 2 a lot. Educated Horses was my least favorite but still a pretty good album. But the new album has 2 ex-members from my favorite band so I might be a bit biased when judging it I heard mixed reviews as well but I don't know what people expected from it. |

Awesome. Have the same thoughts as you about Zombies solo career and I liked the single off the new album.

Bush- Sea of Memories 7/10
Surprisingly good. Most Bush albums have a couple good songs and the rest is forgettable. This is the first effort since Sixteen Stone that I've enjoyed all the way through. |

Queens of the Stone Age - ...Like Clockwork 10/10
Wow, this is the best thing they have ever done. It is incredible. Never expected anything like this out of them. I mean, I love QOTSA and Josh Homme, but this is far different and better than anything I could have imagined him putting out with QOTSA. |

Killswitch Engage - Disarm the Descent 7/10
This is the only KsE album I have other than Alive or Just Breathing, which I bought around the time of its release. The record is solid, though not particularly "engaging," and I can't say I like it as much as the the previous album with Jesse Leach. I've never bought any of the albums with the other fella, as they sounded a bit too melodic for me. |
