Metal 2016

Another Alcest song released.



And, the reviews of Opeth's Sorceress sounds promising, Im a bit more hyped for it now.

"As the song unfolded for the first time, I was struck by the aura of vintage Opeth the song had. For lack of a better phrase, this song – and the remainder of the album – sounds more like Opeth than they have in more recent albums, and it is wonderful to hear.

...

‘Sorceress’ is, simply put, Opeth’s finest album since ‘Ghost Reveries’, and their heaviest since ‘Watershed.’ It is moody, dark, and often mysterious, with its cover art reflecting its true nature perfectly."

The new songs are more polished and not barbaric like the single or epic like Retaliator but the difference in the two tracks posted so far I think show it will be a fairly varied album. Still my most anticipated release for the remainder of the year.

That's what I was hoping for.
 
Preordered the new Opeth just for the hell of it. October should be a good month. New Acid Witch, Khemmis, and Admiral Sir Cloudsley Shovell. All high on my want list.

Khemmis' first album was sword and sorcery themed Pallbearer doom mixed with sludge. Admiral plays greasy hard rocking heavy metal and kick ass despite the stupid band name.
