I just changed it, but it's cool that you recognized it. I'll admit that I haven't heard any Heavy Load yet, I just thought the cover was awesome. Most of my metal favorites are death metal and thrash, but I've been getting more into 80s heavy metal lately. Some old and new favorites there:
Manilla Road - Crystal Logic
Warlord - And the Cannons of Destruction Have Begun...
Adramelch - Irae Melanox
Witchfinder General
Mercyful Fate etc.
New Shizuka and Robbie Basho (both lost live performances) and catching up on some Henry Flynt.

Eugenics: you know it's right!
Nisenennmondai - Destination Tokyo
Boris - Smile
Anthony Braxton - Six Monk's Compositions
Messiah Complex - Altered State of Consciousness
King Tubby - Crucial Dub
Current 93/OM split
Cool. Amazing band. Did you see them on their recent tour? Absolutely incredible stage presence.
Yeah caught them in Manchester with Hot Bone and it was indeed excellent. Nice and Krautrock with some good ole Branca feedback thrown in, my kind of thing.
Thankfully I have it on vinyl so I don't have to listen to one of the most attrocious CD mixes of all time. I wish Beggars Banquet would pull their heads out of their arses and get some decent sounding versions of this period stuff out.
Can anyone recommend me some good NEW thrash? I know there has been somewhat of a thrash resurgence as of late... I'm a casual fan of the genre, which generally leaves me out of the loop when it comes to the new hotness.
Lately I've been on a sloppy lo-fi kick. In particular this record has been in ultra-heavy rotation:
The Death Set - Worldwide
Followed by:
No Age - Nouns
Times New Viking - Rip it Off
Wooden Shjips - Vol 1.
The YMD - Excuse Me, This is Yah Mos Def
Red Dons - Death to Idealism
Haunted George - Pile O' Meat
Witchman - Heavy Traffic
Witchman vs. Jammin' Unit - Inferno
Demon's Claws - Satan's Little Pet Pig
Fela Kuti - Shakara/London Scene
Killing Joke - what's THIS for...!
Hex Dispensers - Lose My Cool 7" (for like, the millionth time)

Great, great album, though I feel Original Sufferhead is his masterpiece (although, there's a certain point where a lot of his side-long sets could easily be argued to be his masterpiece.)
Did you see there was a new set out collecting his somewhat more restrained late 60's material where he's still trying to do club music? I have a 1 cd set of that material, but I guess now there is more

No sir, I had not seen that. But you bet I'll be trolling for it now. Cheers!
Got good and trashed last night and listened to:
The Dictators - Manifest Destiny
The Sons of Hercules - s/t
The Fumes - Self-Appointed Guardian of the Machine
Turbonegro - Hot Cars and Spent Contraceptives
