SARDONYX ~ New album update

Tom Denlinger has given an update on the new Sardonyx cd 'Sons of the Kingdom' and included a couple of clips from the new album.  Am really looking forward to hearing this.  Here is the link......

What a neat guy. That first sample, "Perfected," is awesome. Love the way it builds and then hits you smack in the face.

I listened to the update and am cautiously optimistic.  I really liked the EP they put out several years back, but could not get into their full length debut at all.

Hello Jen, welcome to the board.

Hello Jen, welcome to the board.

Thanks for the welcome, Staybrite. I've been meaning to join for a while now. It's quite strange because I am familiar with the folks who hang out here often, but you guys don't know me at all. Weird position to be in. Kinda voyeuristic but not.  lol

About their last album...was it the length that got you? It certainly wasn't the sort of album to sit down and listen to from start to finish.

Despite the long songs, I loved "Majestic Serenity".  I had it on cassette many, many years ago and was excited when it was reissued to CD.  I haven't had time to listen to the new snippets, though.

I have a weird love for Puppet of Beauty. It's that off beat thing they get going in the intro that gets me. TD does creepy so well. I also like the way so many of their choruses have a different bible reference for every line. Admirable for sure.

Liar is another one I liked. I just think there were a few songs on there that dragged a bit. I felt that it would have been a tighter album without them. But then, I could say the same about my own work. So many albums fall into that though don't they...songs that seem ready at the time, but on reflection, they're not really.

Worth the effort to listen to the new stuff, adddat.

Have you guys really made 17,000!!! posts? That's a lot of chatting about metal.   lol

Have I really made that many posts?  Yep!  If we hadn't moved from the old EZ Boards to here several years ago, I would have had probably close to 30,000.

Good grief! That's a lot.

I did something similar at an older message board.  Lurked around for about 6 months reading all the old posts from the regular members.  Felt like I knew them already when I finally started posting.

Now you only have to make 16,000 posts or so, and eventually we will know you too! 

lol   That's one big mountain to climb.
...8...

...9...
Just kidding  

Funny!

Oi! That second one didn't register as 9! I'm complaining to the Big Guy.

I am the big guy!  Is Staybrite bothering you again?

From down here I would give his knee caps the worst biting he's ever experienced!

Ha! That's priceless.
Go get em Mike Wazowski.

I will have to lift my foot and poke him in the eye!!!

Ha. Shouldn't be too hard...it's a big enough target...even with your ridiculous limited-vision-cause-I'm-a-villain mask on.

Given that you never seem to clip your toe-nails I'm guessing you could put my eye out without even lifting your foot!

Ha! You guys are a riot.

And we hardly make any noise!  Does that make us Quiet Riot?
