Heavy Music thread

I know we have some Katatonia fans here. This may, or may not, interest you. Similar style of playing.

 

Wombripper is now my favorite Russian band. Their newest, while not better than the previous, was enough to give them the nod.

I never really listened to them, but I know they were a gateway band for many. RIP

 

Couldn't stand the guy but didn't really want him dead.

 

Hatebreeder is a sweet album

 

You losers stop listening to metal?

 

Just been listening to a shitload of the newest The Ocean album.

 

I’ve been on an Icelandic black metal kick. Currently on Svartidaudi - Flesh Cathedral

 

Currently listening to new Wytch Hazel. Probably not a band many in this thread would enjoy.

 

I'm such a dork. Sacha Dunable from Intronaut posted that he was selling a bunch of shit he doesn't need anymore, so I bought a pedal from him that I fundamentally don't need because I like the story.

 

congrats on the sex

 

What pedal?

 

An Earthquaker Arpanoid.

I'm happy with my distortion setup currently, so it was one of the only pedals he listed that was some sort of modulation. It'll be fun to fuck with, but I highly doubt I would ever use it live or in a recording.

 

new surprise Gatecreeper album. their first since Nate Garret (of Spirit Adrift) departed.

 

It's awful. One minute tracks can fuck off.

 

Change is hard for old people to accept.

 

Found some random black metal band from France called Ferriterium, quite impressed with their 2021 release.

 

French scene is very good.

Good mix of all the facets of bm.

 

Only thing I hate about discovering new bands/releases is after listening to the album I find out they have 3 older albums and there goes my night.

 

Lol a dude from Iced Earth got arrested for playing revolutionary on Jan 6

 

can we get a new Vektor record yet or what

 

Literally listened to the new track like 10 mins ago. It rips.

 

A dude? lol. It's Jon Schaffer, he is Iced Earth. Also, side note I came across with this recent news, he's apparently made multiple guest appearances on the Alex Jones show.

 

I don't keep track of the lineups of c-level thrash bands

 

Richard Christy's disappointed in you.

 

had this in my youtube recommendations and thought it was pretty funny, probably already in the karen thread but I don't go in there since watching adults having temper tantrums typically just pisses me off

 

new Yoth Iria out today Heavy Mental

 

God I hate 3 of those 4 bands.

 

I hope my Yoth Iria keeps performing well and I can retire young. Work sucks.

 

Any good? Heard of this band bc of former RC members, haven't experienced their music yet.

 

that is one bad ass album cover, wow

 

Not sure yet, I have it ready to go but haven't listened to but one song.

 

i listened to the EP from 2020 on Spotify this morning and it fucking slayed.

the new album isn't on Spotify yet and the vinyl is sold out.

 

mid listen on the Soen album. whoever produced this album apparently doesn't believe in bass guitar.

it's not bad but it definitely seems like an attempt to get into the popular spotify metal channels

 

they're trying to skate that nu-metal line like Katatonia and it goes the wrong way kind of a lot. the playing is good like you'd expect

 

I was able to convince myself that I liked it.

 

I enjoyed it. I just thought the last album ruled and this one went in a distinctly different direction.

 

mastodon is pissed that the big riff from their new album got stolen

 

I loved Lotus. This one is solid but a notch below their last IMO.

 

Switching it up and throwing it back here, but iyo which is the best Dokken album?

Also the best Ratt album?

There's a whole damn thread celebrating the majesty of God's music: 80's butt rock (the moniker sounds ironic, my love of this music is, in actuality, far less so).

The correct answers are Under Lock and Key, and Invasion of Your Privacy, respectively

 

this album is on Spotify now. really fucking good.

it's like the epic scope of mid-era Dimmu Borgir, late-era Rotting Christ atmospherics, and melodic, Hellenic black/death metal riffs throughout.

thank you for making sure i did not miss this burnttatertot

 

i listened to that yoth iria album and i enjoyed it

mainly i just wanted to reiterate that the album art is sick
