I did not not have it on my 2024 list (or any other years list) that The Jesus Lizard would release a new album.

Sounds like they never left

Watched these two the other week, starting with USM. Love how the feature the same cast, but ones a thriller, the other more an action movie.

Hadn’t watched the fugitive in a long time. It’s really good. Kicked me off on a bit of a 90s watching binge.

From the a new album release -

Specifically Wretch era Kyuss.

Sidenote: I read an interview with Greg Anderson recently talking about I and its influences.

*When the weather gets warm and the windows go down on the car, 1 is usually one of the first records I typically turn to in Spring. California isn’t a particularly doom-influenced part of the country, is it?

People used to ask me, how I could be so into doom, but live in southern California? Which is a good point, but Goatsnake took on some of the atmosphere of our surroundings. I was listening to Kyuss a lot at the time and Pete used to spend a lot of time out there and he was friends with Josh Homme and was around during the formation of Queens of the Stone Age. Kyuss was so powerful to me back in ’95. We used to jam a lot with people who liked heavy music like ‘70s obscurities like Cactus and Captain Beyond, Josh even joined in on a couple. He even went to The University of Washington too. We could all tell that Josh had a vision for something that was completely his own; he “big-leagued” us in a way, not spitefully of course.*

Not that I follow it at this time but this looks to be the current standings. GG guys.

Interesting discussion on the 90s output of the thrash bands, incl Slayer. Personally Seasons of the Abyss FTW for the Slayer records, although Paul B's debut was also pretty good.
