In conclusion,
the album Gateways to Annihilation is really great. People who
say that only early Morbid Angel is good are only trying to look
cool. But how can you look cool if you do not like an album where
the chords all sound like collapsing castles on a frozen planet
and the rhythms remind you of Gorguts, but just a little, because
Morbid Angel sound like they could play smashy jazz style Gorguts
stuff, but they are being stubborn about it and forcing themselves
to keep their smash-jazz feelings inside? The answer is you can’t
be cool, unless you like Gateways to Annihilation. Thank you
for letting me guest write Last Plane to Jakarta this week! Grown-up
John will be back next week to talk about High Fidelity Pipe
Organ Favorites or some other record he has been listening to
to try to calm down his nerves or something! That was another
thing I was going to say about Morbid Angel, how it is really
good music for meditation (yes really!) but I guess that will
have to wait until next time! It was good to meet you! Fight
war not wars everybody! Peace out!
