Last two Slayer albums arent bad, and i wouldn't compare them to the two garbage nu metal/groove albums that came before it. WPB has a few very good tracks(Psychopathy Red, Unit 731) and Christ Illusion was actually a pretty damn good album imo.

But yea, there is no Slayer without Jeff imo. And their latest will be nothing more than a download for me.

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Yea or a stream at least, when it's upped to YT. I saw in another thread you were listening to the Alkaloid record. What do you think of it? Are you an Obscura fan?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Yes, im a HUUUGE Obscura fan. One of the best tech-death bands around and already one of my all time favs. Cosmogenesis and Omnivivum are unfuckwitable when it comes to the realm of tech-death.

New Alkaloid is awesome and clearly has that Obscura sound. Definitely my AOTY so far.

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Yea me too! That and the Outre record are fucking awesome, probably my top 2 with Sulpher Aeon right behind. Check out Outre, Ghost Chants if you haven't yet...awesome record.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

I don't think i've listened to any Sulpher Aeon. What do they sound like?

 

[The Ozzman]

Sinister as fuck

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Pretty formidable black metal here...well worth a listen.

Liking what im hearing. Will definitely be picking this up!

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

I listened to the new Soilwork on my way to work yesterday. Nothing - not a riff, solo, chorus, melody or lyric - stuck out. I don't know why I even bother with them anymore. Atrocious band.

 

[The Ozzman]

In before V5

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

haha

 

[KafkaX]

I just downloaded it last night, but didnt put that shit on my iPod yet.

Im sure Ill dig it. I like pretty much everything theyve done.

 

[Luoto]

Well it's pretty hopeless if you don't even like The Phantom

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

The Phantom is good. I listened to the album again on my way home today and that song stuck out, sure. But...just a little

Rumors of Amorphis' demise can be put to rest. Under the Red Cloud sounds really impressive upon first listen and much better than Circle. This is a very cohesive record.

 

[EternalMetal]

Yes, im a HUUUGE Obscura fan. One of the best tech-death bands around and already one of my all time favs. Cosmogenesis and Omnivivum are unfuckwitable when it comes to the realm of tech-death.

Im not generally into tech death, but I agree that Omnivium is an absolute monster. I havent heard any other tech death (in that style of course) that even comes close.

New Alkaloid is awesome and clearly has that Obscura sound. Definitely my AOTY so far.

I usually avoid modern tech death, but maybe this one is worth checking out.

Im definitely gonna have to check out the new Mgla. My backlog of new metal for this year is huge though.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

You don't like Cosmogenesis? Their best album imo.

You should also check out The Radial Covenant, Hannes Grossmanns solo project from last year. A very good album, and has that signature Obscura sound as well ... i think you'll dig it.

Have you heard this ....

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Surprisingly, I wasn't a big fan of The Radial Covenant. I much prefer his work in Obscura and Alkaloid.

Has anyone listened to the new Dalhku?
