not sure if this counts as "metal" or only "metal adjacent" but it is hairy and weird and I like it a lot

Senyawa are fantastic
all the new stuff on that label - granted I'm going on their own sales notes - sounds extremely good

I interviewed Senyawa for Bandcamp this week. The new album's amazing, especially the first track.

Wow this is amazing.

Feels like something that should be on Utech more than Sublime Frequencies tbh.
― One bad call from barely losing to (Alex in SF), Saturday, 3 November 2018 14:30 (five years ago) link
Yeah, when I think SF I think field recordings, and this is a masterful studio production. I'm just glad it's out there. Would love to see these guys live sometime, too.

Best part of doc is probably performance at what appears to be some sort of "fair" in front of a enraptured but not exactly adoring audience. Music in it a little different from new record (or at least first track on new record) more Boredoms than Utech to me.

For those who loved Astronoid but wish they would be more prolific (it's been a while since their last album and with Mike DeMellia leaving the group it may be even longer even as they get yet another decent support slot for Between The Buried And Me and TesseracT) I think I discovered a reasonable facsimile in Sylvaine.

Her album Atoms Aligned, Coming Undone just came out yesterday on Season of Mist. Although this is the third album for the Norwegian multi-instrumentalist, I haven't heard her before. I am listening now for the first time and enjoying it very much.

Two of the veteran metal bands here in the midwest I like have put out records in the past few months.
Stonecutters from Louisville just put out their fifth LP. Just heard a couple of tracks, but they are really good live and I hope to see them live again sometime soon.
https://stonecuttersmusic.bandcamp.com/album/carved-in-time
Apostle of Solitude from Indianapolis put out their album back in February but they are just getting ready to tour in Europe starting next week. Saw them last Saturday night here in Lexvegas. Doom metal with harmony vocals is pretty good in my boat. I like these guys quite a bit.

Listening to Sleep for the first time. Love the fuzz but I can barely stomach these vocals. And the lyrics…

Revisiting the Shrinebuilder record and revelling in all its daft glory. The guitars are fabulous.

I know nobody here will care, but I wrote about the new Disturbed album, specifically about why it debuted at #4 on the charts after their last five albums all debuted at #1.

as unperson suggests in that piece, the second disturbed album is p good

I like the new Psycroptic, cos it has hooks amongst its noodling, but I feel like every tech death album to come out in the wake of the two Necrophagist albums has the same wafer-thin, sterile production and it drives me nuts.

So, uh, Peste Noire is now a rap act:

Famine's lyrics are as despicable as ever, although when he spews the line 'gros comme Babar' (big like Babar the Elephant) to describe his pureblood tribe, I couldn't help but wonder whether he's been taking the piss all along.

First listen to Hekatomb. Maranatha was one of my favourite records back in the day (that and the Devilry EP - the first album weirdly passed me by). This is suitably committed to utter repellence and grotesquery. In an entirely positive way.

Funeral Mist-related post ^.
― Have the Rams stopped screaming yet, Lloris? (Chinaski), Friday, 16 November 2018 19:48 (five years ago) link
Yeah, Funeral Mist are great and that new record holds up alongside Maranatha.
― grawlix (unperson), Friday, 16 November 2018 19:49 (five years ago) link
It was your post elsewhere that prompted me to listen. Cheers. Was going to say it felt slightly less ambitious if anything (maybe I just meant more condensed)? Then Cockatrice came on. Cor.
Was there a new Marduk record this year, too?
― Have the Rams stopped screaming yet, Lloris? (Chinaski), Friday, 16 November 2018 19:58 (five years ago) link
Yeah, but it wasn't great. At least it was short (only about 30 minutes IIRC).

For fans of the Kriegsmaschine, here's another Polish band with a bit of a similar sludgy black metal vibe:

No clue, I couldn't even tell you what language the lyrics are sung in. However, from reading the lyrics on this page (translations?) it sounds like pretty typical death, blight and hopelessness type stuff: https://www.metal-archives.com/albums/Kriegsmaschine/Apocalypticists/741196

that is in fact english, like the singing is
― j., Sunday, 18 November 2018 02:46 (five years ago) link
their lyrics read like Deathspell Omega style "metaphysical" stuff but yes it's fair to think a metal band from Poland who call themselves "kriegsmachine" might be a little dodgy

They hide it well over the past ten years then, there’s nothing in the lyrics or artwork of Mgla & KMS and main guy Mikolaj “M” Zentara has done many interviews over the past few years where he’s made it pretty clear they’re not into the dodgy stuff.

Mgla is on Bestial Burst, though, right? BB is 100% not sky about issuing shit by nazis, which is a giant bummer, as they also release a lot of very very good stuff
