Record(s) o’ the Month – February 2021
February featured heavy metal that was reviewed by some people at AngryMetalGuy.com. Levity was experienced by all. In the following post, Mr. Metal Guy will tell you all about what his favorite metal albums that were reviewed on the website were.
Record(s) o’ the Month – January 2021
Turns out I’ve been reading the blog for a change. Nothing good can come of this.
Angry Metal Guy’s Top 10(ish) of 2020
May 2021 be a better year for us all.
Record(s) o’ the Month – March 2020
“March of 2020 was a big month for me, personally. I turned in a full manuscript of my dissertation for a seminar that gives you the bits and pieces that need to be fixed in order to go to a public defense. As a result, AngryMetalGuy.com is one step closer to getting AMG Himself back. You can bet that heads will fucking roll. That’s what I do around here. Fortunately, I had a solid stable of records to listen to while I was editing and planning my inevitable return, including March’s Record o’ the Month.” Back to rule.
Angry Metal Guy’s Top Ten(ish) o’ 2019
I’m a big fan of the D&D-themed webcomic Order of the Stick. As the comic became a true phenomenon a decade ago and its author Rich Burlew became increasingly in demand, he began drawing himself looking more disheveled with every self-portrait. In the introduction to the most recently released book, his self-portrait is wearing sweatpants, has unkempt hair and looks about ready to fall over. That is a feeling I viscerally share. Or, as the kids say in 2019: IT ME!
Record(s) o’ the Month – October 2019
I’ve been known to throw the occasional curve ball, but I think three Record(s) o’ the Month(s) in one month is the first time I’ve ever pulled this particular caper. But Angry Metal Guy is never late. Nor is he early. He does what he’s doing precisely at the moment he intends to do it. For reasons that are his own (but are mostly fuck you). This month’s Record(s) o’ the Month is dedicated to all the people who like music for “atmosphere.” Of course, you might as well say that you “like whatever, so long as it has a good beat.” But the way you’re doing it is way more trve and garners you less friends and so much metal cred. I thought I’d help you all out by giving you a handful of bands that can write and (gasp) edit songs!
Record(s) o’ the Month – June 2019?
There’s a really specific reason that the Record(s) o’ the Month are late this month. It’s because I don’t like anything enough to make Record o’ the Month. In the past when this has been the case, I tend to listen to things that people like and let a “democratic” decision happen. We did an extensive vote and came with a lot of options and no consensus. And while the options ranged from the “pretty good” to the “deeply insulting,” I wasn’t overly thrilled about any of them.
Angry Metal Guy on the Dumb & Dumbest Podcast
“So I’ve done a thing I haven’t done before. In honor of our ten year anniversary (May 19, 2009), I did a guest Dumb & Dumbest with KISS apologist Matt Bacon (Dropout Media) and Canadian politics apologist Curtis Dewar (Dewar PR).” Pods and sods.
Record(s) o’ the Month – February 2019
A RotM post going up 17 days late? Wow, smells like old times ’round here. What’s going on? And more importantly, how are the n00bs to blame?
