Official "Song of the Week" 2013 thread

Not prog, not necessarily metal (there is a breakdown though, so debatable. lets say hard rock) but catchy as crap and I just cannot stop playing this CD. Comes out tomorrow.

Contender Rising

Here's some cool, modern rock/metal with harmonies, yes vocal harmonies in the chorus. This is pretty darn cool stuff from Ft. Wayne Indiana. They only have an EP now available on Amazon.

Some Overkill style prog metal from the newest Warbringer album.. I really enjoy their renewal of classic thrash metal. Havok is really good as well.

You guys hear they broke up? So unbelievably sad.



SSSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's sad to read about bands that cannot financially continue to put out their material while seeing supposed "artists" rake in millions. It's the way of the industry and that rarely changes but doesn't make it any less frustrating. This last album is first-rate awesomeness, so at least they go out with that. There are few bands that are self-sustaining, so a lot of these guys work other jobs. Not sure why SMT can't just be a recording act till things get better, but they've made their decision.
 
I don't know if this has been posted yet, new song from the upcoming Satan's Host release Virgin Sails, Cor Malifecus:

Would be great to see them live sometime.
