Holy fucking shit.

Snippet of the new Gorguts!

[hellhamster]

Yeah that certainly blew my fucking mind alright.

I came here for new Gorguts, I was not disappointed.

Carry on folks.

[galimim]

After listening to Beez bang on about Creeper a while back I really got into them.

Can''t help but agree with them this week that Misery is fucking massive. Give it a listen, proper class.

Im glad Im not the only one that is on the That's Not Metal train! Also Creeper and Milk teeth are amazing bands!

I'm not convinced by Milk Teeth to be honest.
Only gave them one listen to be fair though.

Holy fucking shit.

Sounds like it's picking up right where Colored Sands left off, which is more than OK by me. CS is one of the finest metal albums I've heard in a while.

[Duilliath]

One thing that strikes me with the new one is that it doesn't reconstruct the entire genre. Obscura essentially turned death metal on its head and Coloured Sands was them inventing themselves over as well. This ties in a bit too closely with Coloured Sands, but at the same time... that was an incredibly good album.

[Gib Lover]

Shame it's only going to be an EP, really digging that new tune.

[Cairhiin]

Pretty good American black metal. The opening track actually reminds me of older Lux Occulta.

Those last three words certainly piqued my curiosity.

I'll give it a listen after I finish this soothing synth pop:

Those last three words certainly piqued my curiosity.

It is only really the first track, in the early parts, False is overall a much more brutal assault on the senses than Lux Occulta.

[Duilliath]

Not a fan of the vocals. Can understand why you'd be reminded of Lux Occulta though. The sense of melody does ring a bell.

Though it's mostly for the older stuff, rather than the more avant-garde stuff like this (not to mention their latest, which has very little bearing on metal).

[Noobie]

Just Discovered the band Orphaned Land. And im sold.

Prog / Doom Metal? Check. Middle Eastern / Arabic Folk Music? Check.

Awsome? Check.

I feel disgusting for liking the new Babymetal song.
I know it's all prefabricated and all that, but it's still a banger.

New Zakk Wylde and Rob Zombie are both great as well.
Good day.

[Deleted]

Just found out Zakk Wylde is coming by my home town in June.
Cracking.
Last time I saw him he was awesome, didn't go overboard with the solos; just right.

I was curious about the new Rob Zombie after someone mentioned it to me, and I agreed with their assessment: total Primus ripoff.

Personally also find the vocals the weak point of False. I am not much of a fan of the later Lux Occulta. I don't think it is bad per say but I really prefer the first two albums. Especially Dionysos is amazing.

[Duilliath]

Can see why people'd say that. I like the more break-away stuff like The Mother...

[Fencers]

Only a few more hours till I see Obituary and Cryptopsy. Should be fun.

[Noobie]

I guess if you like Orphaned Land you might also want to give Acyl, Myrath, Al Namrood and Melechesh a listen. Those are some of the more well known/popular middle eastern themed metal bands.

Im familiar with Myrath, and enjoy the hell out of Tales of the sands, Will def check out the other three

[TonyMonktana]

New Anthrax is killer jumps straight to number 1 on my list for the year
