Rockstar doing quite a bit of heavy lifting here but I guess he’s closer than any of us. Glass Beach has around 500k monthly listeners on Spotify - nothing to sneeze at, but hardly making the zeitgeist.

It’s the only hardcore album I’ve ever felt compelled to listen to front to back, and it’s probably the only hardcore album I’ll ever buy a vinyl of. It feels like they really took the time to make it a solid album experience.

Haven’t they also had some wild hot takes on certain albums? Maybe it should come down on the specific reviewer but I think Pitchfork took the reputation of being kinda off its rocker.

Black Sabbath is my dad’s favorite band and I have NEVER heard of the Tony Martin era.
