[Music] Metal

It's tied with Acrimonious' release as my metal album of the year so far.

No doubt, Black Sarcophagus is something else, hell of a way to end an album. I'll be on this for months now, I blame you

Islamic metal

The new Ulver is a legitimate 9-9.5/10.

After giving the new Mastodon record time I've come to the conclusion that it's brilliant.

Synthpopmetal.

Finally breaking out of my thrash-binge, need some good 2017 BM.
Found this so far and it rules

I assume you already checked out Acrimonious, Nightbringer, Dodecahedron and The Great Old Ones?

GOO yes, no to the others but I'm going to listen to Nightbringer right now because they are great.

I forgot new Midnight Odyssey was on the way, hell yeah.

[hellhamster]

I thought about giving the new Ayreon a shot. I only listened to The Theory of Everything at some point a few years ago but I remember it being interesting enough to actually listen to the whole thing. I probably won't check out the new Artificial Brain, the tracks I heard off of it so far didn't sound that interesting.

Isn't the new Jesu release just a compilation?

Well, it's "only" a compilation but it'll still end up being about 2h long, I guess.

edit: RYM has a calendar for upcoming releases too, but it only seems to track stuff by bands that you've already rated. I usually just check metalstorm every now and then for upcoming releases and bookmark tracks off of upcoming albums that I want to keep an eye on.

I'm using hasitleaked for the short term. Long term, I don't really bother or care that much.

Useless info: Malakia means ailment that softens (the muscles, but can also mean the mind/spirit) in Greek. Also used as slang for masturbation.

[Duilliath]

Less impressed with it, mostly because over time the production keeps getting cleaner. I love the grimier sound of some of the earlier stuff.

To clear the air:

Rain Upon the Impure > Unlock the Shrine > Foulest Semen >>> Blood Vaults

This is a literal tidal wave
