Metal 2017

Holy shit a new album by Trial. How did this slip by my radar? Thanks man, their last album was killer.

Their last album slipped under my radar completely. Need to grab a copy. Motherless seems pretty good after a couple listens... but then again it IS metal blade that doesnt fuck up albums too much, unlike Nuclear Blast or Earache or Century Media nowadays.

Metal Blade is a great fucking record label that still caters to the old school. Relapse has some good bands, but they tend to draw the more extreme stuff. Those that you listed are fucking trash. (I'd sign with one in a fucking instant though probably).

What struck me were extremely weak vocals. Frank used to sound great, I considered him one of the best dm vocalists ever and here he sounds really bland and tired.
 
Started out bad but got better. That was really bland though really. If I didnt know it was Suffocation I would have thought it was some random band releasing their debut on New Standard Elite.
