[Music] Metal

[Deleted]

My top Metal bands as of now are:

Meshuggah - Sybreed - Ektomorf - Neurotech - VOLA and Enshine

[Gib Lover]

I can listen to music at my job, and I've listened to probably 300 albums since I started last October. It's pretty great

[Cairhiin]

We might have a few Bal-Sagoth fans in here.

This is, essentially, the entire Bal-Sagoth line up without their vocalist Byron. The new vocalist doesn't shy away from a grunt, which makes this demo bring back memories of Starfire Burning Upon The Ice-Veiled Throne Of Ultima Thule.

Looking forward to the finished thing, though it's been several years in the making now.

Just listened to this and I definitely like it. Will there be a full release at some time? This demo is already a few years old.

get hype

Definitely looking forward to this release. That teaser sounds amazing.

It's good to see some people posting underground metal of all genres, and not just the commercial boring shit that most people tend to listen to.

One of my favourite albums that I listened to a few years ago:



Coming out with a new album soon:



And 2 of my personal best released albums this year:

Last update I saw on the band's facebook dates back from last Feb, where they posted about recording the full-length. So, there's hope.

New Hyperion was good as fuck

Anthrax - Among the Living

Good shit, god inspired to listen to their old stuff after hearing how good For All Kings was and I've gotten really into it

I AM THE WALKING DUDE!

I AM THE LAW! You won't fuck around no more!

Killswitch Engage are my guilty pleasure, honestly the only great melodic metalcore band I know.

Yes as far as melodic metalcore goes they are the bees knees

A7X is my guilty pleasure lol

[Duilliath]

Friend of mine once summed up A7X as a combination of the worst songs by your favourite bands. I think that's about right.

New Hypno5e is on my to do list.

This album is Portal as hell, and in a good way.

[hellhamster]

Fantastic followup to their 2015 debut, epic space atmoblack with a lot of keys.

Panopticon's split with Waldgefluster.

This album is Portal as hell, and in a good way.

Really not too thrilled about a bazillion Portal clones popping up.

Saw Chelsea Wolfe. Kinda metal-ish. Was a great show.

I also saw Faust this weekend. Not metal but I recall one of the metal bros here digging Krautrock. Faust was ballsdeepbruh.

[Duilliath]

The boys are back in town:

[thewallofsleep]

Possibly the heaviest trad doom band in existence right now. Certainly one of the darkest.

That's really awesome that you saw Faust. I didn't even realize they were touring. I like a bit of kraut rock, but my chosen form of 70's music (other than metal and heavy rock) is typically symphonic stuff a la Genesis, Camel, Italian bands such as PFM, etc. I saw Magma last year and it was amazing. Truly a wonderful and bizarre fucking band.

Chelsea Wolfe is about as metal as you can be without actually being metal.
Did she cover any Burzum in her setlist?
Listening to her whole discog again at work, I'd love to see her live.

New Sammich is tasty.

[TonyMonktana]

Fleshgod Apocalypse is dank

Fair enough lol

[Fencers]

Did she cover any Burzum in her setlist?

Nah. It was 90% of new stuff off Abyss. She played a few older tracks like "We Hit a Wall" and "Moses" though. "Pale on Pale" was the encore.

She was quite good. Well rehearsed- really well.

I dig Prog, Art-Rock and Post-Punk too. The latter of which almost as much as Extreme Metal.

I've seen Genesis as a three piece. Yea, I'm actually old. We Can't Dance tour, 1992. When they played "Land of Confusion" I lost my shit. But I would give a kidney to have seen Genesis with Gabriel.

Faust were rather subdued. It was an interesting set. They played a lot of newer stuff but also a few of the more textual from their early 00's output. It was quite good but rather nebulous. Which was part of the point but I did think the really old stuff (Jennifer) was a little awkward in the mix of what was Autechre-by-way-of-Listen to the Fish.

Enter Shikari on Thursday, so looking forward to it.
