If you want to hear a more dynamic song by The Sword check out Cloak Of Feathers, also definitely do a stoner/doom marathon sometime soon! I pretty much predicted Ryan's reaction to this based on the fact that he likes groovy songs, and groove is like the main element of stoner/doom metal so it'll be your thing for sure. Especially bands like Elder which blend the groovy stoner riffs with progressive elements.

Glad to hear The Sword on here! They actually released six albums: this is from the first album, which might explain why it's a bit simple, and the first three records are all very heavily in the "doom/stoner" mode, before they branched out and experimented with bringing in other elements with the latter three albums. They went on hiatus for several years and did some solo projects, but they're slated to get back together to support Primus's Rush tribute tour next year.

The first time I saw The Sword in concert, it was in 2006 on their first album 'Age of winters'... opening for In Flames & Lacuna Coil. Didn't think much when I heard their music, but when they got on stage? They were ripping 🤘🤘🔥🔥and pits started during their half-hour set. No one knew who they were... and that is the mark of a great live band. I knew that they were going far... Saw them on headline tours years later. The Sword was formed in Texas, and if u listen to their newer songs - 'Tears like diamonds'... 'The Dreamthieves'... 'Deadly nightshade'... u will be shocked how far The Sword have come musically and sonically... Their last record was 'Used future' (2018) and I think they might be coming back soon...

They put on Christmas rock shows every year. Most of the members of Savatage are in Tran Siberian Orchestra. Show Savatage some love when you have a chance.

The Sword are a riff machine and I can't wait for them to get back to their roots. By the way Lars was the one who wanted them to tour with Metallica back in 2008. Lars is a fan.

Flotsam and Jetsam - No Place for Disgrace. In 1986 after Cliff Burton died Metallica replaced Cliff with the bassist and founder of Flotsam and Jetsam named Jason Newsted. The 1986 debut album "Doomsday for the deceiver" saw Flotsam storm into the thrash scene. Their follow up, released in 1988, "No Place for Disgrace" was a masterpiece. The title song of that album is my request. This band is the most underrated band in the history of thrash. Now with 14 albums under their belt they still release some of the heaviest metal to date. They should be considered for the "Big 8" FLOTZ Till Death!!

Apocryphon off the album of the same name is one of their best songs. That whole album is their best one and every track is a banger. Also they have a new drummer and you may be more into it. You guys should check that song out!

I get that this channel mostly focuses on sorta the well known bands or the ones that get the most 'upvotes' but It's good to see you guys giving some of the lesser known bands a shot. If people use whether a band 'charts' or not as a barometer for what's good they're gonna miss out on so much awesome music cause there's so many amazing bands out there that never go mainstream.

And yes to answer your question George they are still playing, making music and touring!!! I just saw an upload of one of their recent shows in March of this year, and they also were doing "Conquest of Quarantine - Lockdown Sessions" last year. I think they are also an opener for Primus for their tribute to Rush tour recently as well! I also found a live video from their time touring with Metallica, and Lars was actually playing drums on Freya and...I didn't hate it! Lmao Their channel is: SwordOfDoomMusic Their catalog is outstanding, for what few songs I've binged so far! I'm also gonna check out Elder, because people keep hyping them up as much as The Sword, so my birthday music marathon of Doom/Sludge/Stoner metal/rock is gonna continue on past dawn and probably throughout this whole weekend thanks to all these awesome suggestions! A beautiful and glorious rabbit hole to get sucked into and lost in!

The sonic variation and dynamics George yearns for come in their brilliant, yet under-appreciated, later albums of High Country and Used Future. Masterful songcraft, not always heavy, but damn good.
