Just a short update to say Ive cleared out half a dozen albums that I liked, but just never felt the need to listen to again. One of these was the new Hell Yeah! album. I really enjoyed the groove metal of Pantera although I didnt care too much for the screaming vocals, in fact they are one of the only bands I have that screams (okay 2 if you include Trivium but they sing with clean vocals). I have dimissed all of Opeth's albums because of this very fact. I just don't get black or death metal at all.
While Hell Yeah! had decent drumming, I felt the songs were quite weak and the vocals nothing special, so although it got good reviews, I didnt think it was a stand out enough album to keep.
I have now brought my download list right up to date, meaning any new albums that are listing on the website I dont need to queue up. I am still left with a weekends worth of music to listen to whilst also listening to some of my older classic albums. It doesnt help that the car Im driving to work at the moment doesnt have a CD player, and the mechanics involved in getting music from my PC to my mobile phone are too cumbersome. Im hoping to land a new job before September and I will migrate my music listening back to a dedicated MP3 player, maybe an iPod or 2nd hand iPhone.
