    ^Never heard that yet. I have to dive deeper into their stuff.
    I only listened to first record and last one. 
    So much music, so much time wasted on led zep
    Who, Tomahawk?

    Odd Fellows has some good stuff on it for sure. Southpaw f'ing shreds. 

    MIT Gas is a must have. Saw them in '13 on the Odd Fellows tour and had forgotten how heavy the MIT Gas material is... the crowd went apeshit during Bird Song & Mayday. 

    I never heard When The Stars Begin to Fall live though... that's my Tomahawk White Whale.

    Just have 1 song ep from THawk. Stone letter got from a trip to easy street. 
    FNM. Need to hear more of them. Most likely know some other songs.

    Oh man... FNM's catalog is so diverse.  

    Angel Dust and King for a Day are two of my all time favorite albums by anyone ever. 

    Tomahawk is a little less accessible, but still IMO the most listener friendly from Patton's Ipecac catalog. (It's a relative scale, mind you).

    First Tomahawk album is perfection!!  I was fortunate enough to catch them on this tour.  At the time i thought this album is what FNM would sound like if Mike had total artistic controll.

    I wish they’d bring a few songs from the first three out. Even just to replace the covers. I understand they’ve always done the opposite of what everyone wants lol. But still.

    If anyone missed out on a poster at the shows this spring... looks like the leftovers are available for cheap.
