Walrus IV reveal Thread. Kingvaldo Collab.

Seeing the song title and the band, I was sure it wasn’t going to be a cover of the Neil Young song.

That BT song must be a hit with church groups across the nation. I’ve got some serious whiplash. Smashing Pumpkins, Typo O, Metallica, and then… ???

Orion was almost my submission for the Instrumental category. I think its probably their best album, though Justice could pip it.

Your mo belongs in a sanitarium pushing 1. f3 with its nose because its arms are in a straitjacket. Worst track by far is The Thing That Should Not Be, then there’s a decent sized gap and 2nd worst is Damage Inc., then you can start using your judgment, but can’t submit Disposable Heroes because it’s a bit too long, can’t submit Orion because there’s already an instrumental category, can’t submit either Battery or Master of Puppets because they’re just too iconic; the only other choice would have been Welcome Home Sanitarium. Leper has a solid groove throughout and an the riff it transitions into after 3:15 is epic. Also lyrics are great, I don’t rate the solo that high though.

Runner up choices were Frayed Ends of Sanity from Justice and No Remose from Kill Em All, as I have already pimped out Spit Out the Bone from their newest album.

I did totally burn myself by posting this jam too recently, I would have loved to submit this for this category, then again here I am double dipping anyway

Orion is the one with that bomb note at the beginning?

I thought about it briefly too, but it’s what walrusers on 2+2 used to call “a hallelujah”, i.e. a song that is a stone classic in its field that we all already know is great.

Orion opens with a slow fade into a steady muted minor riff
