New track from Dark Sky Choir:
Their CD just came out and is a real fun listen. Great riffs, killer vocals, even a Scorpions cover. Their guitarist and producer also plays with The Wizards of Winter. Chris Caffery (Savatage) and Mike Pinnella (Symphony X) guest on it

I mean, it sounded like nothing but chugs. I'll blame it on the live recording so I'm curious to hear the finished project before I claim it's any worse than "Heretic"

Damage Case
This live set of MA looks outrageously weird tho. I mean, it's great for the lovers of the Tucker era, but it's really odd to go to the MA gig and not witness Chapel of Ghouls.

And I bet it'll sound identical to all the rest of their albums (since they did the same album over and over)

Maybe. That album art is fucking warped. Want it on vinyl and shirt. My Diabolical Conquest shirt is starting to get full of holes so I even have an excuse.

Sacrilege's "Within the Prophecy" and "Turn Back Trilobite" are to be re-released on Hammerheart Records:

Curious what the unreleased bonus material might be. Not sure what to think of the "re-mastering", but in any case I still have got the original vinyl versions of both albums.

Yeah I have a few of their albums. The riffs aren't as compelling on this track, seems more like their Become the Sun material. For Egypt albums I'd go:
S/T
Endless Flight
Cyclopean Riffs
Become the Sun
I'll check out the rest of the album when it's released though, thanks.

Appreciating my extra day of free time here with a (so far) top 5 of 2017! First are some albums of note that aren't quite top 5 material that are, say, 8.5/10 or better and are top 10 contenders for year's end.
Spaceslug - Time Travel Dilemma (Stoner/Space Rock)
Hellripper - Coagulating Darkness (Black/Trad)
Dopelord - Children Of The Haze (Stoner/Sludge)
Horn - Turm Am Hang (Black/Folk)
Slaegt - Domus Mysterium (Trad/Black)
Mastodon - Emperor of Sand (Prog)
Havukruunu - Kelle Surut Soi (Atmoblack)
Ordos - House Of The Dead (Stoner/Doom)
Fen - Winter (Atmoblack)
5) Electric Moon - Stardust Rituals
Not really metal being more of a Psych/Stoner album, but relevant to interests around here and so good I had to include it in the list. Might have placed higher, but being so borderline metal it slots last. Mellow as fuck but still holds your attention. Give it a listen even if it's not your style.
4) Bestia Arcana - Holókauston
You could say atmospheric Black/Death since it is true, but it's really too pummeling to quite deserve that tag. Occult really is the right word. Splits the difference between Naas Alcameth's Nightbringer and one of my all time favorites in Akhlys' The Dreaming I. This exceeds Nightbringer's release from this year by quite a margin. Nightbringer can at times be a touch too dissonant for my liking though, so there's that bias.
3) Nokturnal Mortum - Істина / Verity
Okay, not quite The Voice of Steel, but close for some great Pagan/Blackened Folk. If you like that album you'll like this one. It leans a little harder to the folk side, and moments feels somewhat... forced, but I like what they're forcing so *shrug*.
2) Venenum - Trance Of Death
Weird, melodic yet dissonant psychedelic/atmospheric death metal. They remind me of the DM version of Oranssi Pazuzu. Not really sure what to say here as it's just a great album. I don't typically care much for DM, but this does something special for me. Note in particular the track "Trance Of Death Part I: Reflections."
1) The Ruins of Beverast - Exuvia
Black, Doom, Folk/Ritual Ambient elements. Has a very hypnotic dark shaman ritualistic quality matching quite well with the cover art. Discounting the fact that this album is just so cohesive and strong overall, it hits pretty much all of my genre high points. It will take a monster of an album to unseat this as AOTY. LISTEN TO THIS NOW!

lol at the new Dread Sovereign sucking. It's far more defined and honed than their first album. Much better than that mess of an album that Pallbearer put out.

The new Broken Hope finally got leaked.
This is some saucy vintage doom/occult rock shit with a lady singer.
Classic heavy metal magick.
Folk metal, not bad.
