I'd like to take a moment to recommend a friend of mine, Andrew McGuire's band Botolph Dissidents. His music is a unique blend of melodic death, thrash, speed, classic, viking, and groove metal. It's incredibly melodic and catchy, with awesome guitar riffs and leads, harsh and melodic vocals, tempo changes giving it tons of variety, and the best double bass drumming I've ever heard next to Morbid Angel! He has two songs out, called Trails of Treason and Sounds of the Revolution, with more songs on the way. The amazing thing is he does all of the music all by himself. He's incredibly talented and is the hardest worker I know! Check out his two masterpieces of metal and give them a listen. If you like them and are impressed, they're only $1 each!
