Paradox - Search for Perfection

Working my way through my list of bands. I thought I'd change things up a bit. This is my first time listening to Paradox.
Yes, I agree. Not only would the proposed community be full of baseless claims etc. But also it may deter potential mods.
No problem :) . Thank YOU for posting. This can cause an interesting discussion.
Not really sure what this will achieve in the long run. Sure, some mods will up their game after being shamed... but would this not just encourage toxic behaviour? People may start shaming mods just because they may slightly disagree with them as opposed to because they are bad mods. Instead of a few bad eggs, we may end up with a chaotic community of people blasting and publicly shaming anyone with differing opinions. Is this the best way to go about this? Obviously I may be exaggerating slightly, but this is just to get across a point to consider. I know you have touched on this issue already, but another thing to consider is the potential bias of mods of this community as well. This is an interesting idea and I would also like to hear other people's opinions on the matter.
At least in my experience, parents seem to criticise their children playing video games, whilst watching TV themselves. In fact I'd rather my children play video games than binge Netflix or mindlessly scroll TikTok or watch YT etc.
Ghost-Repellant. Prevents the viewing and interaction with ghosts.
All reviews 5-star. Sell this product for easy money XD.
Yeah I hope modding support stays.
Well now I'm even more excited... What about mods (assuming it supports them). For example AC had content manager. Hopefully a "Content Manager" is no longer required for mods.
Hell yeah, can't wait! One of the few modern franchises I care about. Would be amazing if we had Linux support but unfortunately I know that isn't going to happen.
Sodom - Lead Injection (2021 - Remaster)

A tad more serious than Surfin' Bird...
Took me a min... I must admit when I first looked at the meme I was like "Where's the joke".
Monorail! Monorail! MONORAIL!!! Mono... D'oh!
I couldn't either... I ended up using dd, though it's probably not the best way by a long shot.
Sounds pretty brutal, haven't heard of these guys before, will have to check the band out.
I listen to a pretty equal split of each. I find crossover to be quite catchy, blackened is great for the added intensity and speed, death is good for the heaviness and technical for the impressive riffs.
Looks good, seems like an interesting concept. Will keep my eyes peeled for that one.
Which subgenre of thrash do you find yourself listening to the most? Why?
E.g. Blackened, death thrash, crossover etc.
Forced Entry - Bludgeon [FFO: Technical Thrash]

Not heard this band till now, loving it so far! Has a technical, almost progressive feel, which I admit isn't usually my thing, but I'm really enjoying it. Then again I have always liked Coroner.

Do you get sick of the same songs and how do you combat it?
If I find myself overplaying certain songs, I sometimes have to force myself to take a break because when I don't, I usually end up ruining/disliking the song. I hate when this happens because perfectly good songs that I love end up irritating me because I have heard it too much. Do you stop listening to those songs or just play it as many times as you like?
EDIT: changed title to be open-ended.

Know any underrated bands?
So I'm compiling a list of thrash bands to listen to, that I haven't already. When I listen to bands, I listen to studio albums and EPs in order of release, then move to the next. This way I can get a feel for how the band progresses over time. Just thought I'd mention that, as I think it is a handy tip for exploring new bands. Anyway, do you have any underground/relatively unheard of bands that you believe to be underrated and worth my time?
EDIT: I ended up pinning the post, as it may be useful to others. If you have any to share, feel free to add/update suggestions (don't worry about commenting on an old post).
