Same goes for the standard "Recommended for fans of __________" line you see in reviews.  No, thanks.  I want bands with their own sound and vision.  I'll skip the imitators.

 

Have fun listening to absolutely nothing, buttface.

yeah! yeah! Buttface!  Yeah. Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh...

Discordant Dancer:

I just got into Through Silver in Blood recently...I want to check something else out by them. What album should I spiritually digest next?

Try A Sun That Never Sets, Times of Grace, or Enemy of the Sun.

Agreed. Their new album is still sitting on my shelf in pristine condition, and has no scratches since it was only spun twice. It gets as much use as Opeths Damnation.

Edit: '

Neurosis = boring

Deke':

I've been thoroughly unimpressed with Neurosis since day one, and have listened to each of their albums with open ear. 'Times Of Grace' is the most tolerable of them for me, but I'd MUCH rather listen to bands heavily influenced by them rather than actually suffer through Neurosis themselves.

*throws on 'The Ritual Fires Of Abandonment'...*

 

Hear, hear, even though I don't care for Minsk that much.

I used to really like them. Then, I just kinda got bored.

Sometimes, in fact, I have a great time doing just that.  While you're in the east bay strokin it to some power metal.

Whether or not I'm stroking it "In the Hall of the Mountain King" or not, is none of your beeswax, thank you.

You going to Middian at Annie's tomorrow night?

I can see someone liking their earlier crust/hardcore/punk/whatever you call it stuff yet not liking the stuff from Souls at Zero on.  It sounds like two completely different bands, so obviously he enjoys that style of music to the more experimental approach they ended up taking.  Neurosis is not a band that is necessarily easy to get into.

As far as I go, I love everything they have done.  My favorite would be Through Silver in Blood (probably my favorite album ever), followed by Enemy of the Sun.  I prefer the mid period of their career, the Souls at Zero/Enemy of the Sun/Through Silver in Blood/Times of Grace.  Favorite song is probably Raze the Stray, Eye, or Locust Star.
