Albums currently kicking your ass

[Phylactery]

Gontyna Kry - Welowie

Beautiful.

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

Temple of Void. If you like doomy death metal you shouldn't miss this.

 

[CiG]

that looks pretty fucking cool

Dissonant death metal, somewhat typical of the Norwegian death metal bands of the modern era.

 

[Phylactery]

Sounds good. Another to put on what seems to be and endless list of albums to listen to.

Did you listen to that Musmahhu yet? Thoughts?

Also, been meaning to listen to that Hetsheads Dweller posted for years now. Thanks for the reminder!

Check it! But do also check out Temple of Void if you haven't yet.

 

[CiG]

Did you listen to that Musmahhu yet? Thoughts?

Yeah, savage album. You guys called it filthy but I also wasn't expecting it to sound so massive and frankly well-produced. At this point it's one of the strongest of the year for me, but early days yet obviously. The drums are punishing as fuck.

Have you checked out Mystik by the main guy behind Musmahhu?

 

[Phylactery]

No, but I know he’s primarily involved in black metal bands. One of which I’ve heard, Beketh Nexehmu. What is Mystik like?

I did say it sounds massive as well as filthy! And yeah the drums are pretty cool. It’s growing on me.

 

[CiG]

No, but I know he’s primarily involved in black metal bands. One of which I’ve heard, Beketh Nexehmu. What is Mystik like?

I don't know if I have enough black metal knowledge to really give a good frame of reference, but I like what I've heard. Could be because this guy is an awesome drummer and all his bands demonstrate that regardless of subgenre.



Link should go straight to the first proper song.

 

[Baroque]

never realized how similar these guys can be to Dark Angel, also i hear Devastation influences in Fueled by Fire

 

[The Ozzman]

Devastation is some killer death/thrash.

 

[The Ozzman]

Yet another nu-metal era band I slept on. Man, I missed some good stuff back then

 

[no country for old wainds]

i mean they're better than taproot and hed p.e., but come on, they're hardly the second coming of 36 crazyfists.

 

[Phylactery]

Since when are they even nu metal? Perhaps they are on that album. But their earlier stuff is metalcore.

I’ve had the unfortunate experience of seeing them live many years ago when I went to see Dark Tranquillity and they were supporting Chimaira.

This track was prettty popular on the music channels when it was released:



Not nu-metal and not good.

Do you even like 36 Crazyfists or was that a joke?

nu-metal era

Yes, I agree they are more metalcore or groove metal than nu-metal. Nowhere did I say they were nu-metal.

I don't really expect you to like anything that isn't considered in-crowd so it's not surprising you dislike that band

 

[Phylactery]

You might like this:

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Crown of Phantoms is the only Chimaira album ive heard and its definitely not nu-metal

I don't really expect you to like anything that isn't considered in-crowd

fact.

 

[no country for old wainds]

well, he likes opeth. that’s because he’s somebody’s alt pretending to be various stages of teenage me though

 

[no country for old wainds]

Do you even like 36 Crazyfists or was that a joke?

they’re good, not quite as good as spineshank but definitely better than ill nino

 

[EternalMetal]

This is my guilty pleasure weight-room music.
