    Job for a Cowboy really just released a possible Metal Album of the Year contender. Moon Healer is brutal 10/10

  • @cmd_f5
    @cmd_f5 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I dig this style. Breaking it all down, having references to prior works, and solid examples of your points. More people should discuss music like this. Really diving into the mindset of an album, their impressions and thoughts of its various aspects. Hell, I'm writing this like some paper now. lol. Good stuff man

  • @adamsteinbacher2629
    @adamsteinbacher2629 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +27

    Absolutely agree, Sun Eater is an easy 9/10. Moon Healer will likely be a 9 or 10 on subsequent spins.

    IMO Job for a Cowboy became a real band when Nick Schendzielos joined, and finally we can see the beast that this beautiful man really is, already AOTY material

      Nick to Job for a Cowboy is like what Steve DiGiorgio was to Death. Feels like both bands really matured when they joined the band.

    I found myself nodding and saying "yes" out loud three times while watching this review. I couldn't agree more! I really believe the secret of their new sound is the bass like you keep mentioning. Every song is a complex wall of sounds that sit well with me but are busy enough to where I always have to go back and listen to grasp any sort of grounding for the song. This was the easiest 5 out of 5 skulls ever.
    Edit: New rule. If you give this album a 9/10 you must list at least ONE 10/10 album right after. Nah. Kidding. Sort of.

    Seriously dude, your explanation of how you felt about Sun Eater LITERALLY put into words my feelings at the time as well, and I never knew how to convey that. I 100% fucking agree with that.

    • @bradleyzorgdrager186
      @bradleyzorgdrager186 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you so much! Glad I am not alone in that. Feels like a unique thing I felt, so it's cool that I'm not totally off my rocker and it's a sentiment shared by others. Check the album out now in the context of a scene less defined by the problems back then, and you'll have a newfound appreciation for it, I'm sure, especially with this one to complete the picture even more.

    Good to see you back on the channel, Brad! Job for a Cowboy has always been a love or hate band for me. Their earlier stuff I definitely hated, but somehow caught them live like four or five times due to them touring with every band I wanted to see. Sun Eater and Demonocracy were great, though, and I'm definitely enjoying this new release.

  • @TheMetalTris

    You can use "personified" to discuss albums because personification means "the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman". Though what I think you are looking for is more about the unification of ideas present on the two albums.

    Agreed, i love this LP. I pre-ordered Moon Healer when it got announced. I was nervous because I went dark until release. Everything worry melted away when I listened to it from start to finish. I don’t know about 10/10 or whatever. I just know I like this album a lot.

  • @donbehatin
    @donbehatin 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    you mentioned mastodon which sort of solidifies my opinion in that jfac is the mastodon of death metal. there's more similarities than differences if you really think about it.
    no i'm not saying they're ripping off mastodon. i'm saying they're equivalent.

    Man, i dont know what's happening with this channel. When this dude is on all he talks about are the bands he's managing. Sam and Martin are never to be seen. Blayne's stick has become quite stale And the rest of the crew are reviewing stuff I'm just not into. Only Daniel seems to bring the good stuff. Nothing personal guys. Maybe I just changed and gotta move on. Still giving you all the respect you deserve for putting out content consistently.

    Death Metal with Techy grooves splashed with Funk and distilled with Prog is a weird mixture but crafted a Badass album, that i cannot wait to blast in my car, at work, and in my earbuds 🤓
