Dunno what water witches do, but based on the music, they probably love drowning people.

In line with most of my picks, we're in front of some pretty unique form of metal here that's relatively unknown. Alchemist is the most legitimate name drop I could do for you to get a rough idea of how this sonic-bomb sounds.

Or you can just go here (and thank me right away).

Staff pick by:

Technical, sludgy, avantgarde, and even atmospheric at times. Unconventional, yet captivating music that's for sure.

A bit of doom and gloom breath of fresh air in this stagnant scene that's not to be missed if you're a fan of melodic death metal.

Staff pick by:

Imagine Mastodon that's decided to become catchier, groovier with a healthy dose of electronica. Mose Giganticus can make you shit flowers in your yard. Consider your diligent prayers for something original have been answered.

Most of the time when the label Progressive Death Metal is slapped on, you get people referring to Opeth. It couldn't be more wrong in this case and in fact, if you are in search of something fresh and a bit experimental at the same time without losing the heaviness in metal, this hidden gem from 2010 should be at least be listened to. A fan of Textures? What are you waiting for?
