So without saying under the influence, picked up the ABBATH CD last week and have been listening to it and it is fucking solid. Fuck you and your delusional standards, solid music, he earned this, Judas Priest cover in all, not trying to reinvent the musical wheel.
Haven't listened yet, but will later. Honestly, couldn't really care less about Abbath in 2016 so I'm hoping it's a good one. Don't let me down, buddy.
Like I said, he is not trying to reinvent the musical wheel, dude is established, feel good album, it is what it is, listening to it again to still digest the album, and the JP cover is killer.
