"Super influential record for the new wave of British heavy metal. Super influential record for Megadeth and Metallica. That was one of those records that everyone should listen to but not a lot of people know about. I think the beauty of it is the simplicity of the British riffing and the general approach to the music. I'm sad to have seen the band fall apart from its classic line-up although I don't know that they were necessarily prepared for greatness, if I can put it that way without being offensive. They were heralded to be the next Led Zeppelin and I get it. But I think internal problems started around when Canterbury came out in 1983."

Chino Moreno recommended Sunset Mission by Bohren Und Der Club of Gore in Music (curated)

"This record can adapt to almost anything I'm doing - I listen to it when I cook, when I shower, when hiking, but it's perhaps best for nighttime, I have a cocktail in my hand, and I'm looking over the city lights. It is cocktail music in a way, but very dark. It's a very soothing record, to the ears and the soul. I actually put it in a metal category, even though it's more jazz, because the mood of it is so dark. They're opposites, but it works. In music that I make, even if it's subconsciously, I try to bring together the beauty and the dirtiness of rock. I love the contrast and dynamic of that."
