Soilwork is good stuff.

Me and the wife saw Rise Against and Pennywise last night. Great show!

I knew that Dookie was reissued, but I was unaware that the cover was given a face-lift. I must say, not my cup of tea, in all honesty. The original may have outdated references, but it's definitely leagues ahead of the modernized, vainglorious redesign.

I've decided to post a follow-up post of sorts to my previous post in another topic. I'm thinking that this general topic is perhaps more suited to the content.

So, I've been maintaining a music log since May 19, 2022. Throughout that time up to July 31, 2023, I listened to 1,124 albums. It reads like a lot, but that's an average of 2.84 albums/day. Since I've been tracking the stat in February 2023, I've listened to artists of 36 different nationalities.

Here is a post on imgur of my favorite albums during that 15-month span which were all first listens. I didn't put in the effort to organize the content in numerous ways this time like before, so I settled on alphabetical organization. All of the same data type collected from before is still visible aside from genre. I'm pretty open to most musical styles, though, so what I really liked from this period reflects that.

Here is a breakdown of some stats for my 60 favorites:
AU: 2
AR: 1
BR: 1
CA: 2
DE: 1
ES: 1
FR: 3
IN: 2
JP: 9
KR: 1
MX: 2
MY: 1
UK: 10
US: 23
ZA: 1

1960s: 2
1970s: 12
1980s: 2
1990s: 11
2000s: 11
2010s: 10
2020s: 12

Like before, I'd be happy to receive any recommendations.

Bit of a random topic to bring this thread back to life with, but I started delving into AFI's 90's output because I sorta realized that other than the All Hallows EP, I never got into the band, because when I got into that EP for being involved with Tony Hawk and then when they got more popular with their early 00's output with songs like Miss Murder, and it was more...emo and dropping the more punk vibe, I just had no interest in the band and otherwise never listened to anything else other than that single EP.

Finally started diving into their stuff and basically everything from their first album to The Art of Drowning is great, short of Very Proud of Ya (Production isn't as good as the album before and after for some reason and it doesn't work as well alongside everything else to me).  Kinda surprised I never tried to delve deeper honestly, especially with how much I was into punk in the late 90's/early 00's as a teen.

Anyone else had that? You got obsessed with something specific from a band, maybe a song or one album, and you just never realized they had a bunch of other great stuff till later on? I often have the thing where I'll get hooked on a single song or two, but the rest of the band's output does little for me and that's just how it stays, but never have I just been like "Oh, there's like 4 sick albums I just never got into for no real reason" lol

I use to buy CD’s and just listen to the few songs that got on the air. I find myself just playing the whole album now. So much good songs I skipped over throughout the years!!!
