most promising new band?

[cookiecutter]

There are lot's of good new brutal death bands coming out now that most here would not like, so I'll spare you. As for other genres, I've liked what I've heard from Imperial's new band N.I.L.

 

[Alter]

Hills of the seprioth

 

[Seditious]

Taunusheim

only one release, an LP in 2005

promising new Viking/Folk band in my eyes

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Mithras

Honestly, if their new album is any indication, they can keep improving as they've been doing. Great stuff. Very intelligent, very atmospheric, very envelope-pushing.

just checked em' out on myspace and they are bad as fuck

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

What does that even mean.

slang for good...ultimate kickassery.
but i wouldnt go so far & compliment you on your diverse and specific metal knowledge cause i might know a bit more

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Ha. OK I didn't know whether you meant they were horrible or not...but yeah Mithras is awesome.

I'd like to also nominate Communic; I guarantee their third album will be great.

 

[Vitor]

Torture squad

 

[~Neurotica]

Clad In Darkness

Indeed.

 

[challenge_everything]

Riverside. Impressive prog metal. Need to work on the laughably bad lyrics though.

 

[Son of Evil]

Outworld's self-titled debut in '06 was amazing. A very promising band.

And like someone said, Savage Circus, of course.

[genocide roach]

btw

a new TURISAS album is on its way. shall be released shortly!
~gR~

 

[Carcassian]

Yeah, saw that on their myspace bulletin.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Necros Christos are fucking phenomenal. Triune Impurity Rites is the death/black album to beat in '07. And I dont see it happening.

Listen to this guy.

 

[Koude Haat]

Laethora
demiurg
mithras
necros christos

All very good new bands imo.

Во Скорбях, easily. The Russian/Eastern European scene is the only one producing anything I find to be truly innovative or interesting lately, and I find this band to be the best of them. Brooding doom metal with heavy Slavic folk influence, especially vocally. Their s/t debut was just released a few months ago. Fans of Drudkh and Крода should take note.

 

[Death Aflame]

or good

house of lies, etc.

This Demontage band seems pretty badass thanks for making me aware of them Jean-Pierre.

Crimson Massacre seems to be the most promising recent DM band. Alcest is also highly promising though no longer metal.

Crimson Massacre seems to be the most promising recent DM band.

I can agree with this, The Luster of Pandemonium is probably the finest album the genre has produced since Obscura in terms of originality and creativity. I'm hopeful that the follow-up will continue in the same vein of incorporating classical influence into death metal.
