Anubis Gate - Horizons
Girlfriend Metal
Following up their excellent self-titled uh... fifth album, most fans knew that this album was going to be a disappointment. Suffering the loss of a founding guitarist and drummer, the odds were on a steaming pile of Danish doo-doo. Yet somehow, this album comes out like a delicious wienerbrød. Still one of the only bands that I can never seem to figure out when songs are going to end or begin, the structures are interesting enough to avoid boring us to death with ordinary melodic prog/power metal. If you want a band that knows how to write great catchy songs without all the plague of pompousness that most modern prog metal suffers from, you may enjoy this.

Divine Heresy - Bleed The Fifth (2007)
Ever wondered what Fear Factory would sound like if they dropped their new wave and post-punk leanings and instead focused more on bludgeoning the senses with their trademark rhythmical death metal approach? Well, Divine Heresy's Bleed The Fifth offers to answer this question as it is the new project of founding Fear Factory member Dino Cazares and by and large, is a nonstop extreme assault, often managing to one-up his previous band in terms of intensity. It is also a fairly decent album, mired...
