The new Wormrot is pretty awesome, I don't even listen to that much grind anymore but I'll definitely revist this.

 

I'm not a grind person by any stretch of the imagination but this is top notch

I've been caning the latest Haken album lately. Not strictly metal, but they do love a good downtuned riff every now and then.

Love the unexpected Neurosis section at around 10:45 in this track:

and the unapologetic 80s prog sound of this track..

Really like that design/album art. Almost looks like the box of an old Atari game or something. Proper old-school Dream Theater vibes at 5.30 or so onwards for sure.

Gatecreeper - Sonoran Deprevation:

been really enjoying the new Gatecreeper, not a groundbreaking album by any stretch of the imagination but still a really well put together mix of genres. Suffers from pretty much all the flaws of modern metal production but it is what it is

looking forward to new urfaust album!

Just got back from an Angelcorpse gig. Haha, fuck all your weak metal bands.

lol nice

there's something I really love about those ridiculous, nonsensical/atonal walking guitar riffs in death metal

That new Khemmis album rips. Saw them play a couple of the new songs at Migration Fest, which was a treat for the ears.

got me the awesome new Urfaust, dank space meditation

excellent true clochard black metal

Ulcerate - Shrines of Paralysis:

yeah it's really good, sounding pretty much like previous efforts (which is ok in my book) albeit with a bit more blatant emo parts. what i really appreciate about this band is how they reward your attention yet don't demand it. if you listen closely lots of detail and complexity reveal themselves yet because of their limited palette the music is also really enjoyable as a monolithic blur just passing by / over you. great stuff for working out.

The new Urfaust is great, the new Deathspell Omega is the best thing ever in the history of anything.

Really need to check those both, that new Urfaust album is really promising from what I've heard.

I'm finally trawling through Aluk Todolo's discography today, saw them live years ago when they were opening for Sunn. Turns out their studio work is equally good.

ya, it's really neat! deffo better than paraclit and the last few eps. less athmospheric gheyness and awkward "groove-parts", more unholy blasty fuckness! also awesome production, works great as hair dryer! is that even aspa back there?! vokills sound kinda different...

Khemmis - Hunted:

 

this is so fuckin good, got me the album thanks to you

^ I like the sound of that.

fuck.

yeah sounds cool, will check it out for sure

Those vocals sound too high school for me.

I like the vocals, against my usual tastes. I've been listening to this album all day, it's great. I wonder if I'll suddenly get over it though, as with so many doom/stoner bands.

^the vox aren't my usual taste either but they fit the music just fine imo

i just bought a shitload of metal albums and wanna let them sink in for a while but here is one i gotta share cause i just know it's gonna disapear under the radar and that's sad cause these guys make great fruggin musick,, check em out!!
