The Pagan Altar song on youtube is alright. I'm a big fan of all their albums and I really hope this one won't be a dissapointment.

 

[Avigrus]

New Psycroptic, which i'm fucking keen for.

 

[Luoto]

Let's see... Barren Earth will release The Devil's Resolve in Feb/March. Be'lakor are currently recording album number three, probably out in May in Aussieland. Also Portal of I by NeO. In Mourning is coming out with The Weight of Oceans... Also anticipating albums from Eternal Tears of Sorrow, Kalmah and Noumena.

And that's just the (prog) melodeath

 

[The Emptier]

Seriously hope the new Sigh isn't as crappy as that last one, Hangman's Hymn i think will end up being their best

Darkthrone are going to record a few songs in march. Im hoping for an album by the end of the year.

 

[Evil Dead]

Whatever happened to Summoning? seems they vanished into Oblivion.

They keep pretty quiet but I am sure they will kick out another bad ass record as usual. I wish Minas Tirith would do something though.
