This is the new shit.

YES!

I recommend this album to Marcel.

Witchrist's new album sounds pretty solid. Black/Death metal

Ahuge Tool ripp-off, but still it's good enough to be mistaken for one of their album



Cool new album from a band called Stoneburner


And it seems Funerary Call are back to hunt us with Fragments from the Aethyr

The new Wodensthrone? I'm into it.



It undeniably claims an "epic" atmosphere without inserting obnoxious synths or war-like chants into every track; they do it naturally through atmospheric riffing. It doesn't break any ground really, but it is organic, energetic, and well constructed.

My favorite of the year so far is Sigh's In Somniphobia. Litrosis and Xandria's new ones are reall good too.

This is good. Great cover pic for the album too!

Stoner/Sludge.

Paradise Lost - Tragic Icon
Woods of Ypres - Woods V
Anathema - Weather Systems

"The Great Old Ones" with their debut album "Al Azif" sounds really good. No idea what genre this exactly is but M/A says it's Ambient BM. Tags in the video says Post Atmospheric BM or something like that. Nevertheless, a very good album.

A friend told me to check out Baroness, so I just heard their latest single (album releasing July 17th by the way) and not really impressed. Do their older stuff sound like this? Or more sludgy?

their older stuff if 100x better than that pile of turd. However it still isn't very sludgy.

Turb, you know my musical tastes pretty well. I don't like Baroness very much. Their whole "twangy" guitar sound gets old. I've listened to both their releases a few times now and I just don't get them. I prefer Mastodon instead.

Poeple, my aoty so far is Rush's latest. Pick it up, it is soooo fucking good. I never expected what they released...

Prepare to be bludgeoned to death. Frenchies sure do releases some of the craziest Doom out there.

Sectu - Gerra (2012)



I'm not sure what to make of it, yet, but it has some moments and the musicianship and production are good. It's a bit on the clean side for the usually death metal tastes of mine, though I've found it interesting so far after a couple times through.

I'll take your word for it! I heard a few songs, just not my cup of tea. Although Mastodon too is not my cup of tea. Just like a few songs here and there haha.

They're here

^ A friend recommended this record to me a few days ago. It's definitely good stuff, I really dig the whole tribal feeling to it.

Love Om, great band, nice choice.

My favorite of the year thus far is:
Blood For The Master

Brand new Agalloch track!

Whales And Aurora - The Shipwreck --> Bandcamp

Nice piece of work, in the mixture of post rock/post metal and slightly doom.
