I haven't really gotten into their new stuff, would you say they've gotten better? I've always been a fan of Dez Fafara's vocals, I think he could go far if he had some more creative streaks.

As far as their newer stuff goes, they haven't surpassed Fury of Our Maker's Hand, so I wouldn't really say they've gotten better, but they also haven't gone completely downhill.

two new bands to add to my list.

Stormlord
NordicWinter

I'm happy to hear the name Turisas around here. I've pre-ordered their new album as well and from what I've heard so far, I expect this to be a kickass album, especially after hearing The Great Escape.

In my opinion The Last Kind Words is also damn good, but Pray For Villians is a bit meh, only a few good songs. Beast is sounding good so far from what I've heard, I forgot they were releasing a new album soon.

I misread Stormlord as Stormcrow. But you know what? Fuck it. You should listen to Stormcrow anyway. Heavy fucking crust. Dat guitar tone.

Fuck me sideways hit the post button too soon.

Winds of Plague are excellent live, and AiLD are good but the singer sucks balls live.

If I find the time I'm going to throw water bottles at them in two weeks.

They all suck balls all the time.

Good god, fuck As I Lay Dying. I'd rather listen to fuckin, fuckin.. Foo Fighters or something.

Aaaah Foo Fighters. New song, sweet new video.

The Foos are sounding heavier. And Lemmy KILL-MEISTER himself is in the video.

I envy you. I really hope they bring out some new shit soon. In my opinion, if they continue their trend of not having a trend, new stuff should be super epic. Okay I guess they do kind of have a trend going on... Whatever. Seems like their vocals are becoming less guttural and more... Singy... Ish. Not that that's bad, but their lead has fucking epic screams, particularly in Leviathan (i.e. Aqua Dementia).
Ugh. I have to wait a whole month still to hear anything new from Obscura besides Septuagint, which I still am unable to become tired of. I could listen to this song all day.
I know I've already posted that link like three times, but the song is still fucking sick-tastic.

Gorod still has the best solos though.

God fucking damnit the Fleshgod Apocalypse gig has been cancelled. My life is ruined.

I am going to be seeing Gorod in May, unfortunately they are supporting subpar bands like The Faceless, Born of Osiris and Veil of Maya.

Oh yeah I just remembered I saw Malevolent Creation on Sunday with Full Blown Chaos (GAY!) and Havok and I don't remember who else.

I only have the varangian Way which is pretty tits. Didn't know of a new CD. I need to listen to mor turisas

Man Anaal Nathrakh's guitar tone is so brutal, it's like a rusty sawblade being driven through my skull, in a good way.

Gentlemen, I give you 8 bit black metal.

What's the big deal? They actually are. Shallow, too. Plus, what's the big deal with Gorod touring with them? I think they fit in pretty well with bands like that. I wouldn't be able to tell them apart.

Ponos is going to hate you for this...

I suggest you guys listen to Gallowbraid, they are and amazing Doom/Folk/Black Metal band :)

8-bit variations, you say? I really like The Grand Conjuration and Cry of the Banshee!

I have their album Ashen Eidolon but I've not listened to it yet. Might check it later.

The grand conjuration would make a great boss battle song or intro song in the 8-bit version. I can totally imagine it as like the final championship battle music in Pokemon. Which is kind of a bummer, but I certainly don't think less of the song for it.

There's a song from Anaal Nathrakh's new album 'Passion' up here.

I don't know what's up with that album name, completely in contrast with all their other album names.

My friend decided to introduce me to some Decide

Pretty cool stuff, any recommendations as to where to start?
