People were fucking dumb in the 80s.

Damn Kreator....
There is also a possibility that somebody from their record company/printing added those lines before they went to print, but were found before the main print started.

No, this was the first pressing of the album. Not a test pressing. Sounds like it was removed when people started sending letters and shit to them saying they weren't fans anymore. Also let's be real, it's not a statement from the label, it's a note personally written by the band.
It's just interesting to see how something like this could be buried at the time (especially when nowadays they seem to be a progressive band) when if this would've happened now they'd have some real issues

If Bob Marley were still alive what are the odds he would have been anti gay marriage and lose a bunch of fans with his old man tweets.
Oh I thought that is was some limited edition print and not the first one.
And I agree, a lot could be hidden in 80s and early 90s. Just image if somebody wrote that down now and release it into the print....

Ha ha, probably many.

The 80s were a different time. This kind of thing was pretty much the norm. It's hard to explain in the context of 2017, but that kind of thing was not uncommon back then.

Andrew Dice Clay too...Pretty much every comedian was doing gay jokes back then.
You also have to understand the absolute level of fear all over the world of HIV/AIDS. It was literally portrayed as a death sentence and we were being bombarded with messages all the time about it being a "gay" disease.

So that brief discussion we had about doom/sludge/psych/etc a few pages back led me to discover some cool new bands, including a Swedish band called Blue Pills.
I bring them up here because I just want to say that their vocalist, Elin Larsson, is amazing!
I've never really been a fan of female vocals in metal/hard rock, but this girl can seriously wail!
Some songs to check out:
High Class Woman
Lady in Gold
No Hope Left for Me (shades of Amy Winehouse here)
Little Boy Preacher

Speaking of Power Trip, the title song from their upcoming release:
Nightmare Logic
That riff. That goddamned riff at the beginning and the end.

It's even sadder because that album is fucking awesome.
Blues Pills is indeed a great band, had a chance to see them live last year and they rocked. I was a bit disappointed in their new album though, it's not bad at all, but i was expecting an even better record than their debut album and i don't think they accomplished that.

Some sweet footage from the techno-slam masters 7 H. Target.
I hope we get a new album from these guys soon! Truly on another level.

It is, although i think it's a bit inferior to White Devil Armory, it's a very solid and heavy album.

Fantastic album, the band has been in a great run since Ironbound.

Looking forward to seeing Alcest tonight! Can't wait to hear Ecailles de lune pt. 2 live!
It's glorious. Enjoy!

Saw them a couple weeks ago. They were great. Are they doing an acoustic performance before your show too?
GutsOfThor

Don't think so. Didn't see anything mentioned on the event page unfortunately.

That's too bad. It was part of their VIP package in Chicago. Their show was perfect. You'll have a good time regardless.
Umm holy shit. Never heard these guys before. Cro Mags meets Exodus is a very fitting description.
Indeed.

Somewhere in time and Seventh son of a seventh son are damn good albums.

Yup, when I saw Maiden back in 2011 and they played pretty much the entire Seventh Son album on top of almost all my personal favorites from their discography.

One of the best Maiden concerts I've been to, almost had the day ruined by Coheed and Cambria butchering Heaven and Hell

Oh god, that sounds fucking awful.

Yeah, I actually got the date wrong, looking at my ticket, it was 2012 not 2011, but still, Coheed and Cambria are shit

Awful band, I agree. An insult to the same genre that blessed us with the magnificence of Close to the Edge, Red, In the Court, Thick as a Brick, etc.
Hello good folk of ye metalle threadde. Sorry, I don't know where I was going with that. Anyway, I am looking an album that I've forgotten the name of, and I need help finding it. I don't remember the name of the band, but it was death metal. The cover is primarily blue in color, with some red in there, I think, and shows Jesus' upper body while lying horizontally as he gets nailed to the cross. I vaguely remember words like god, christ, dethroned, execution and so on, but none of it sticks. No pun intended.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Oh man, I'm jealous. Three years ago on my birthday Alcest and Opeth were playing together and I didn't find out about it until that very night, so all the tickets were gone. I've never seen either to date, so it still hurts. Have fun.

Seems legit.
God Dethroned - Blood Blasphemy!
Excellent and catchy album.
Thanks, but this isn't it. I think my memory is mixed up because I do remember God Dethroned and this cover as well, including a bunch of others with similar names and motifs. I think the album came out in the mid or late 00s, if that helps.

Damn, that's a great cover.
This is it! Thanks! I have no idea why I didn't remember Vital Remains. It seems so obvious now.
Many thanks to all three of you for the assistance. I will listen to both God Dethroned and Vital Remains tonight.
It really is. Great album too. I remember it being a bit unappreciated.

Coheed and Cambria sucks ass, I never understood how they got so big. Same goes for The Mars Volta.

Mars Volta isn't too bad, and At-The Drive In is fucking amazing, but yeah the band is corny as fuck. Give me Pink Floyd any day.
