Is Dave Grohl's new Probot album any good?

it's okay. Good in a retro way, but not really much to write home about other than two or three tracks.

I'd still get it though.

MASTODON - Remission

In Flames - soundtrack to your escape wooden box
In Flames - Soundtrack to your escape XL short sleve t

Spazz - sweatin to the oldies.

Behold the contents of my freshly arrived Relapse Grab Bag (and before you ridicule me for the contents, remember I had no control of them):

Abscess - Seminal Vampires and Maggot Men
Genocide SS - We Are Born of Hate
Neurosis - A Sun that Never Sets
Namanax - Cascading Waves of Electronic Turbulence
Convulse - Reflections (I'm impressed with this one)
Napalm Death - Leaders Not Followers
Karaboudjan - Sbrodj

and three samplers

Is that grab bag the same for everyone?

Nope, it's completely random.

as soon as i send off a bunch of Euros gained from flogging various electronic paraphenalia, i'll be awaiting:
V:28 - Nonanthropgenic
Red Harvest - Nomindsland
Red Harvest - MazTurnation EP
Red Harvest - NewRage World Music
Dunkel:heit - Reincarnation Of The Sun
