We don't, and we don't have Walmarts either. Probably they just don't know we exist, or think that we're some backwoods province of Russia.

Hmm...good question.  It wasn't really what I was expecting.  I was expecting something that sounded like Iron Maiden, and it really didn't.  Probably had something to do with there being no Bruce.  I liked it, but I can't say that I loved it.  It was only my first listen though, and maybe after getting over the "shock" of it not sounding like Iron Maiden it will impress me more on future listens.

Yeah, it's... different for sure. My first impression was of a lacklustre demo recording with some promising bits, on the second try I liked a bit more but still ended up putting it off after the fourth song. The production and performance quality seems to vary quite a lot between tracks, which is understandable since it supposedly was recorded in a ton of different places in different times. The singer has a sort of nice rock voice, but it sounds like he's afraid to really let go and wail from the bottom of his lungs.

But it's never a good idea to start an album with its worst riff and the worst sounding song.

Maudlin of the Well is good. Bath is a pretty mixed bag for me, tho. I'd give it like a 3.5/5
Plan to check out some more of their stuff, soon.

Bath is my clear favourite from their older stuff, but not quite as brilliant as Part the Second. Four and a half or five stars depending on the day.

I wish that too.  I know your pain sir.

Thanks :D

I think it's mostly just inflammation, and I'm not sure how to make it go away without snorting nasal spray like a coke addict. Early this year I did that and apparently became dependent on the stuff and had to suffer most of the day before finally breathing normally again.
I use nasal spray year round for congestion due to allergies. But have been told "one spray per nostril in the morning, and the same at night" and never to go beyond that. Using it more can be a problem, but i find if i stick to one spray per nostril like that, it helps and there is no heavy addictive stuff going on.
