ok the voiceover in the last track is ridiculous

fuck you, your hat is horrible (Neanderthal), Thursday, 23 November 2017 19:17 (six years ago) link

apparently Prurient plays synth on this album which even though I like the guy I have a hard time imagining to be a hugely necessary teamup

Dawn Ray'd alb is good black metal w/ violin. though sometimes the moments where it appear seem tacked on rather than organic

speaking of good black metal,

Dawn Ray'd disappointed me because I'm ready for some angry lefty bm but it didn't grab me much.

ultros ultros-ghali, Friday, 24 November 2017 17:05 (six years ago) link

what do you non-journalists use to keep up with upcoming metal releases? I used Lambgoat's release calendar for the longest time, but something is seriously fucked with it lately. it didn't have the Cannibal Corpse release date, it didn't have In Flames, didn't have Taake, didn't have Exhumed....

fuck you, your hat is horrible (Neanderthal), Friday, 24 November 2017 17:07 (six years ago) link

I follow this guy/organization on Bandcamp, and find him/they add/buy/review a thorough enough chunk of new releases to stay on top of things enough (at least as a non-cvlt outside observer) :https://bandcamp.com/metalbandcamp

I regularly read Invisible Oranges and No Clean Singing, the latter is a bit uncritical and hyperbolic about some fairly ordinary stuff but both are good for finding new releases.

ultros ultros-ghali, Friday, 24 November 2017 17:19 (six years ago) link

rateyourmusic charts, this thread and idk following the white rabbit of stuff i already like

imago, Friday, 24 November 2017 17:24 (six years ago) link

Guys. If you love Immolation. And you love Atonement...see them open gor Mayhem. Holy shit.

fuck you, your hat is horrible (Neanderthal), Saturday, 25 November 2017 02:38 (six years ago) link

Been thinking about it. They're playing NYC next Saturday.

grawlix (unperson), Saturday, 25 November 2017 02:42 (six years ago) link

Seen em 4x and this was the best one by far

fuck you, your hat is horrible (Neanderthal), Saturday, 25 November 2017 02:44 (six years ago) link

Technically 2018 but Portal have a new song out:

https://profoundlorerecords.bandcamp.com/album/ion

It sounds like Portal!

ultros ultros-ghali, Saturday, 25 November 2017 16:02 (six years ago) link

amazing

Simon H., Saturday, 25 November 2017 16:50 (six years ago) link

it certainly sounds like portal

imago, Saturday, 25 November 2017 17:16 (six years ago) link

i wish my reaction to portal was stronger than 'this is impressive i guess'

imago, Saturday, 25 November 2017 17:16 (six years ago) link

bet they're incredible live mind

imago, Saturday, 25 November 2017 17:16 (six years ago) link

Yup. Very cool live.

EZ Snappin, Saturday, 25 November 2017 18:29 (six years ago) link

That song didn't blow me away but I'm about ready for something new from them.

Also I've been listening to this, slightly weird black/death w/fretless bass and impressive drumming. I almost gave it a miss because of the crappy band name but it's good:

ultros ultros-ghali, Saturday, 25 November 2017 18:32 (six years ago) link

Ever considered getting a 'produced by Colin Marston' tattoo? ;)

Will give this a right good listen

imago, Saturday, 25 November 2017 18:39 (six years ago) link

Oh my, getting J*** G*** vibes off this

imago, Saturday, 25 November 2017 18:43 (six years ago) link

or maybe it's just amazing

but SO amazing. oh my days

imago, Saturday, 25 November 2017 18:59 (six years ago) link

The Elevenfold Vibration: jaw -> floor

guys. guys, you all need to hear this. metal album of the year (for a week at least)

imago, Saturday, 25 November 2017 19:19 (six years ago) link

Yeah I like it a lot more than I came across, I'm not great a hype man. I'm really glad all this great avant-metal stuff's coming up at the end of the year but Cleric I reckon will top them all. And yes lol Colin Marston is E V E R Y W H E R E

ultros ultros-ghali, Saturday, 25 November 2017 19:31 (six years ago) link

I'm amusing myself pretending imago's asterisk post is supposed to read Jim Goad vibe

Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 26 November 2017 02:46 (six years ago) link

@Brad any good metalcore-y stuff this year? I wasn't that struck by this year's August Burns Red, though I am enjoying this Ghost Key album I discovered completely by accident while looking for something else

i didn’t engage much beyond being bored by the abr

to belatedly answer my own question, the best metalcorey thing I've heard this year (non-Converge division) is the Code Orange record, which was an impressive step forward

Simon H., Monday, 27 November 2017 15:59 (six years ago) link

oh yeah i forgot to check that out, that band RIPS

ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Monday, 27 November 2017 16:03 (six years ago) link

An excerpt from the best press release I've read in a while:

Let the black wings of Omega be ferociously and perniciously uploaded to Spotify, this Night or some other Night soon, please.

glenn mcdonald, Wednesday, 29 November 2017 18:56 (six years ago) link

new jess and the ancient ones and morbid angel records came out friday. not sure where the morbid angel is gonna find them, given the last one, but i'll still get around to it

ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Saturday, 2 December 2017 17:23 (six years ago) link

i am finally getting around to the new cannibal corpse and my god this rocks

ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Saturday, 2 December 2017 17:51 (six years ago) link

HEADS! SHOVELED! OFF!

ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Saturday, 2 December 2017 18:35 (six years ago) link

ok the combo of rutan production + azagthoth writing extremely nasty oblong gateways-esque riffs = i think the new morbid angel is going to be worth spending a lot of time with

ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Saturday, 2 December 2017 19:20 (six years ago) link

In addition to the actual new Morbid Angel album, there's something on Spotify called Complete Acid Terror, which I think might be demos or something - it's seven instrumentals with a drum machine.

"the pillars crumbling" -> "for no master" is so sweet

ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Saturday, 2 December 2017 19:47 (six years ago) link

aaah hahaha thank you for this

imago, Sunday, 3 December 2017 01:05 (six years ago) link

Man the "Deep the Beatles" thing by those same dudes is pretty freaky.

The Fortnightly Intruder (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Sunday, 3 December 2017 09:46 (six years ago) link

all it needs is spiderman and pregnant elsa

imago, Sunday, 3 December 2017 09:52 (six years ago) link

lol

and... probably going to buy the new Morbid Angel tomorrow

The Fortnightly Intruder (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Sunday, 3 December 2017 11:17 (six years ago) link

The AI Krallice thing is maddening because I recognise all the elements but it doesn't go in the direction I'm used to. Apart from that well done computer? It still manages to be less weird and robotic than Glyptoglossio!

ultros ultros-ghali, Sunday, 3 December 2017 13:37 (six years ago) link

I'd prefer to hear it after the entire history of metal has been uploaded to the network, and the parameters set to 'go on, impress me'

imago, Sunday, 3 December 2017 14:43 (six years ago) link

not until you have listened to metal before 1999!

Finally listening to the new Azonic & loving it, so thanks to unperson
