I found this Christian rock group called Petra. Their 1974 debut was good. there are a couple albums I like more, but it's an interesting mix of Eagles and Allman Brothers styles, and Christian. The album lead me to three other Petra albums. Rank score is 9.
I've actually heard of them, haha. My dad had one of their CDs when I was growing up. Not really my thing but it's cool that you've also heard of them, haha.
Right now, the album I'm most interested in from last year is Omnium Gatherum - Beyond. It's relatively brutal because of the growling vocals, yet extremely melodic to the point where it soothes my soul. I guess it belongs in the "melodic death metal"-category, or "Gothenburg metal"-category (though they are from Finland, haha). I'm very, very surprised, as I did check the band out with their earlier releases, and I found them extremely boring, but with their latest release, they've completely surpassed and exceeded my jaded self's opinion of them. I've yet to re-listen to their older stuff, so whether they've become that much more awesome, or if I'm just an idiot, I've yet to decide. But listen to it, dammit!
This album is probably the peak of Phil Ochs career, its funny, its poignant, the songs are classics.
I think it gets unfair judgement becuase ppl think its a compilation. It isnt, its the 3rd and final record that Ochs made with Elektra and the last one he did fully acoustic.
i'm too lazy to search old posts here. apologies if i've shoved these down your throats before. #sorrybutnotsorry _________________ follow me on the bandcamp.

this isn't like a city block where promotion is just slapping a picture of whatever you're trying to sell on a wall. can we get descriptions in a thread like this for once?
