What are you listening to in 2021 and why might anyone be interested

OK, so having listened to Trivium’s In The Court of the Dragon and Ascendancy, thought I’d go with another band I discovered about the same time

Type O Negative - Dead Again

More Goth Metal than Metalcore it its a shame that a couple of years after this release their frontman and bassist died of sepsis / diverticulitis and the band spilt up.

Dokuz parca is nine pieces. Their other album is dokuz parca daha - 9 more pieces but I cannot find it anywhere other than youtube with relatively poor sound quality. It’s a good album. I asked a contact in Turkey if he could find me the CD but no luck.:frowning: Spotify has 2 albums by Trio Mrio and also “solo” albums by group members eg. sarp Maden

Stevie Wonder - A Time To Love, a splendid album from '05, featuring the single “What The Fuss” with Prince.

Discogs shows 6 people selling mint / near mint copies of Dokuz Parça Daha if that helps.

Hi Dread, the UK 2017 red translucent pressing does it for me. Mine is the Sainsburys exclusive release with the runout ‘MATT@ALCHEMY’ on side 1. Granted I’ve never compared it to an original but it sounds superb, full of detail and a rich depth. It was well pressed. It’s been highly praised.

Nice one Tony, can’t beat a bit of Man, unfortunately never managed to see them live, but I did catch Terry Williams drumming for that Knopfler guy’s band, quite a powerhouse. Thought you would be impressed :sunglasses:
