  1. Great show and Thank You for acknowledging such an amazing comeback after 33 years. What an AMAZING album. Who would have thought?

    What I do not understand however is how the main LiquidMetal station is not playing it….Lots of metal fans are chanting possible ALBUM OF THE YEAR on almost all message boards I visit but Jose and Shawn keep playing the same damn crap (Jinger, knocked loose, Alien Weaponry??? new Slipknot (sounds like most other Slipknot…). I mean comon already. They beat a dead horse on the same bands that they love but the mighty Possessed put out a tremendous album and it does not get played……

    Anyway, thanks for reading my rant. Either way, the new album absolutely slays! Keep up the great work.

    Btw, Impious death gods???? really? overstatement ya think?
