@@danb5944 Fuck yeah! As The Flower Withers blew my mind back then. The Trinity Compilation is fantastic and never seems to get mentioned.😎🤘

[@Anthony32126]

Excited for this one Robert! 🤘 Would love to see a ranking the albums of these guys!

[@marcelo.bassalo]

Love My Dying Bride. I played some of their songs on Rocksmith and will check that album out when it launches.

[@vladomatoski1634]

It was released on 19th of april, i pre ordered it in february, received it in May

[@vladomatoski1634]

I remember first time listening to Turn Loose The Swans during summer vacation 1996 in Montenegro. I've been hooked on since, my favorite band.

[@NicolasAristizabal-rb3ju]

I’m hyped for this one, kinda lost touch with the band until the last album, but I loved that one and I’ve loved the singles. Can’t be released soon enough

[@wretchedforever]

I've been listening to this band since the beginning of their career. Kind of lost touch the last 15 years or so. Just listened to the 2nd Of Three Bells. Wow. Sounds great. Love the heavy vocal part. Really sick. This is some nice sad heavy music.

[@ruiner115]

This was my first album from the band, and it sure as hell won't be my last. Definitely a top favorite of the year. Thank you again for introducing me to an awesome band/album!

[@karlsetterberg5940]

Huge Rush fan here, Well done! said a lot in 8 min.! I give it a 4.5/5 after 2 listens...

[@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic]

I'm so excited to hear this record because I absolutely love the singles. As great as "The Ghost of Orion" was, I'm really happy to hear some more of the chunky and simplistic death metal riffs make a return here, since MDB has always hit that contrast so well. Great review, man, you made me even more pumped for this record than I was before 🔥

[@Grim_666-]

Great review.

[@user-lb9yt1mm8o]

Ahhhh what a album!

[@CraigMader]

Avoided this band because of the band name and logo, I thought it was American deathcore(not my thing). Cultural bias in full effect. So I guess you called me out as a metal racist. Humbly adding this band to my life. Always something to learn over at Melty's. Something new with a similar vibe is THROWING BRICKS & ONTAARD- Oud Zeer. Thanx, dood

[@mikepenny8940]

I'll give it a listen

[@heavymetalmusicofdestructi3430]

just listened to it absolutely amazing

[@bennyfrey8411]

Robert, please do yourself a favour and check out the new Dödsrit album. I guarantee you, you're gonna love it, it's pure magic

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

Noted, thanks bud

[@DylanTheCDAndVinylCollector]

Great album!

[@blackwaterrust476]

I absolutely can’t wait to listen to it, been one I’ve been anticipating since going through their Discog.

[@markpalavosvrahotes5575]

Robert would you give Turn Loose The Swans a 5/5?

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

Nahh, probably a 4/5 leaning towards a 4.5/5. 'Like Gods Of The Sun' maybe though.

[@markpalavosvrahotes5575]

I would give Swans a 6/5. It’s my favorite album!

[@benedictdonald4338]

Absolutely a 5/5. A top ten all-time metal album, imo.

[@ilves6664]

My old Friend. My Dying Bride New album is great. No filler 😮

[@lionlissauer7104]

Just gave it a spin. Usually I don't play too much death/doom because it can trake me to places I don't wanna stay for too long but I gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised. I do think that production-wise the guitars are a bit too much on the forefront for my liking though.

[@joefixit347]

I'll definitely be checking out the album when it comes out! quick question, when you describe music as sounding "carnivorous", do you mean to say "cavernous"?

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

No, I mean carnivorous

[@alexchavarria2582]

❤ sometimes I do not have time to comment but I give my support commenting with emojis etc

[@robertsparling917]

I saw A&P Reacts' interview with Aaron Stainthorpe. He said that his daughter lost her spleen to cancer, so she is SUBSEPTIBLE to being infected by COVID!

[@RE-vy4wn]

Thanks for reviewing this album, I saw that it was available and these guys are still kicking arse, so I'm excited to try it out! Edit: Came back to mention, yes, this album is absolutely glorious! 🤘🖤

[@peterhalkjrhedegaard4861]

Would you include Ekbom by Benighted in your next albums i had missed episode?

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

Probably yes. Good album, just didnt have much to say about it that others weren't already saying.

[@flynnhale1243]

Oh my gosh when can we here this album

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

Comes out this weekend bud

[@blakegunnels9205]

This album is great when you just relax or play video games while drinking coffee and water

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

I dont know how you relax listening to such gloomy and depressing music but more power to ya bud lmao

[@blakegunnels9205]

​@@themetalmeltdownofficial me either lol and I like some depressing music

[@Oldy-dingo]

Any plans to review all of their albums?

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

Nahh, not really. Did a poll but there wasn't any interest.

[@Oldy-dingo]

@themetalmeltdownofficial oh I didn't see the poll. I would've loved to see that.

[@toddmorse8972]

2012?? What the hell were you listening before then?

[@themetalmeltdownofficial]

Literally only thrash metal lmao, I was 17

[@scottsmith6235]

Just listened to the opening track and doubt i can get through the album. Their worst song I’ve ever heard from them and I’ve been a fan since they released Turn Loose the Swans

[@markocoric9233]

I love MDB but this album is meh
