Hate to pull a Mort here, but

Hour of Penance >>>>> Fleshgod Apocalypse

Lovin the Nocte Obducta love on the last page. I'll check out the new Agrypnie, though their albums tend to be great first listeners with little lasting impact.

Agrypnie - 16[485]

This is fucking awesome, expansive, progressive, modernized post-black metal with balls. It verges on -core here and there, but it's nothing like weak American metalcore most people here despise, so I'd urge everyone who likes anything remotely "modern" or "progressive" to check this band out...more people neeeeeed to hear this! Win.

Fucking amazing stuff man, only just saw this post, thanks for reminding me :kickass:
 
I'll definitely be looking into them. From your description it sounds like I would enjoy them.

Awesome! Can't fucking wait.
 
Fellow Soilwork fans, check out a studio drum report from Dirk...you can hear a really quiet guitar track in the back, and Dirk's drumming is sick as usual. Check it!
