Metal Appreciation Thread!

Timi Hansen from Mercyful Fate died earlier this month from cancer.

RIP ^ one hell of an artist! there is a new king diamond album out, anyone heard it yet?

Btw did i already say that that new mayhem album is fuckin amazing

Haven't visited this thread in a while, but this came up in my youtube recommendations today and is actually pretty amazing

Lately I've had Harikiri for the Sky's Arson on repeat. Heroin Waltz is a favorite.

Tomorrow's Harvest 2

Anybody into Astronoid? that style with clean vocals is quite curious...

listened a bunch of times to that new blood incantation album and it made me dropmy jaw

it's damn worth the hype

this is probably the most bonkers manic album i heard in 2019 and it's realy good 2

it's that insane vocalist from bethlehem , he never sounded better

dude that Ranier Landfermann is some next level shit! Very enjoyable thanks for posting.

I always liked that Bethlehem album that he was on.

Holy shit @ the vocals.  Respect to their bassist for being a goddamn fretboard wizard, but the vocalist cracks me the fuck up, in a this-has-to-be-for-comedic-effect kind of way.  Is that what he's going for?  There is a ballerina on the cover, so I'm thinking the comedy aspect may indeed be deliberate... but it's so hard to tell sometimes.

wut, the (non-clean) singing is probably the best part!

metal in a nutshell.

Fav Metal Releases of 2019:

Big Business - The Beast You Are
Blood Incantation - Hidden History Of The Human Race
Boris - Love & Evol
Car Bomb - Mordial
Cattle Decapitation - Death Atlas
Gatecreeper - Deserted
Mizmor - Cairn
Monolord - No Comfort
Sunn O))) - Life Metal / Pyroclasts
Tomb Mold - Planetary Clairvoyance

 

Great list. I'm playing catch up with a lot of 2019 metal, but I just listened to Planetary Clairvoyance recently and that shit is fucking insane. Reminds me a lot of Planetary Duality (Probably intentionally), which I would say is The Faceless best album, but a little more old school and thrashy. It's fantastic.

I've listened to this whole album three times in the last 24 hours, so it must be good.
