DYSRHYTHMIA, JFAC, BOO & YOU
Thursday, July 2nd, 2009 at 3:00pm by Axl RosenbergI will never get tired of streaming new music. I remember when I used to have to go to a listening station (they didn’t even have full booths) at Tower or Sam Goody (SAM FUCKING GOODY!!!) if I wanted to hear new music that wasn’t on the radio, and even then, the pickings were fairly slim, metal-wise. So to be able to listen to shit for free while high in my favorite chair is really just magnificent. Just superb.
And away we go:
- Dysrhythmia’s entire new album, Psychic Maps, is streaming here. This is instrumental prog metal at its finest, boys and girls. You need to show it some love. The album comes out on Relapse this Tuesday, July 7 here in the States, and then July 13 in Europe. And I guess Asia can just suck it. Suck it, Asia.
- Job for a Cowboy’s entire new album, Ruination, is streaming here. It comes out on Metal Blade, also this Tuesday. And I think it’s safe to say that, yes, JFAC are officially no longer deathcore. In case y’all had any doubts.
- Sumeriancore favorites Born of Osiris have yet another song from their forthcoming We Smoke Weed A Higher Place, entitled “Live Like I’m Real,” streaming here. I have a feeling BOO have gone the down same “we got just melodic enough to really piss off a portion of our fan base” path as All Shall Perish. I guess we’ll see come Tuesday.

Is it just me or is this the first JFaC album worth buying?
Its just you, their all pretty worth it : )
*They’re
Oh Cisco, what would I do without thee!
Although I definitely like some of JFAC’s earlier stuff (when they were legit deathcore) I absolutely love the new material. Cannot wait for this album to come out.
No its just you.
But this one is worth downloading. I guess. If you have nothing else to download.
Heard the new JFAC and liked what I heard. Never listened to any of their material before but liked this one.
New BOO should be good stuff. I really liked the first CD and after seeing them at summer slaughter I’m stoked to hear the new one.
Question for anyone that saw BOO at SS… Did they cut out the linkin park style rap thing at the end of “Now Arise”?
Yeah, they did not rap that part at the Orlando SS.
I worked at a Sam Goody in Cedar Rapids one summer. Holy shit did that suck. What a depressing job that was.
I can honestly say I do NOT understand JFAC.
If this new JFAC had come out back when Morbid Angel and Deicide and all the other top of the heap death metal bands were at their peak years back then everyone would have been shitting their pants over it. Now everyone claims to not understand it or hate it because they are “core” when did metalheads and metal lovers turn into such panty waisted genre taggers. There are hardly any real heavy music lovers left, everyone has gotten so fixated on what is cool to loike and what is acceptable to understand that people are afraid to like good stuff just because it doesnt fit their current scene. Like it or not, had Job for a cowboy come out ten years ago, every death metal fan on the planet would have been having a shit fit over the stuff,of course that was back in the day when it was ok to just like metal for what it was.People constantly talk about how metal is in a sad state and not what it used to be but the people speaking of this are pretty much the ones that ruined it in my opinion. Trust me Brutal Doods, it’s really ok to think Job For A Cowboy are good, it wont hurt you to admit that they are putting out some bad ass tunes.
A – FUCKING – MEN BROTHER!
If Captain Beefheart came out today would it be called shit? I wouldn’t think so, good music is good music no matter what the time.
Face it JFAC are an sub par band. However they are getting better i will admit that
Ok, let me restate some stuff here.
Sometimes an artist is behind their time or ahead, we understand that. Today is a perfect time for Death Metal acts to come out and be understood. JFAC are not the Mozart of Death Metal music, they are just a sub par death metal band.
No longer deathcore, but now a shitty Domination-era Morbid Angel ripoff.
But that’s still miles and miles above the best deathcore.
Just listening now and it’s seriously so much better than the shit I usually am accustomed to hearing when I see the name “Job For a Cowboy”.
But god damn, do his high vocals suck.
I reckon the vocals are the best part. Ruination isn’t bad & did change my opinion on JFAC, but theres something missing that isn’t apparent & its completely bothersome. However kids should be listening to this then any other “phrase band name” band.
@balls
I love how you actually commented on yourself, like anyone was really interested in knowing what your opinion was about it, lol.
Job For a Cowboy’s Ruination…. New levels of suckination through constipation of talentation.
The new JFAC album is pretty good. The new BOO album, on the other hand, sounds fantastic. Can’t wait to get it on Tuesday.
I’ve got the new JFAC sitting on my hard drive at home… I finally checked out their last album and it was better than I expected, so we’ll see how it goes with this one.
Listening to JFAC now and I’m fairly impressed with the new songs. Good Job!
Vocals are better too. Haven’t heard a single Briiiiiiiiiii Briiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee Briiiiiiiii so far.
yeah but its not like davvy did shity pig squeals they were some of the best the ep and genesis were amazing with genesis being the better half runination isnt my thing but its growin on mecant wait to see them at mayhem
lol, Born of Osiris. Such an awful band.
