Now that you mention it I went searching for it and realized there are lotsa bands that use microtonal (screw that, Jute Gyte isn't experimental anymore, ima throw away my collection)
Well the use here seems stronger... I can tell the difference when on Jute Gyte's songs though. While I can't on BAN for instance. (Or maybe BAN used microtonal on songs i never listened to, i dunno)

I'm not sure I could point out when a band is just using dissonance or using microtonal / xenharmonics or whatever it is. I only really know to an extent that BaN use microtonal on MoRT because it's a fretless guitar, and does sound genuinely microtonal to my ears.

A song is worth more than words. Anyway, the "microtonal" tag seems to refer to the fact that his guitar makes twice as notes as it would be possible on a normal one, even an average joe like me who don't understand anything about guitars can tell the difference while hearing the riffs. But if you browse his bandcamp there are probably better explanations

Oh I forgot to reply to this. Yeah I know about that microtonal thing, but I would never be able to tell you for sure when it's used. But it sounds obvious in this one. I don't know if that track is very representative, but if it is, I don't think I'll be listening to any Jute Gyte in the future. It's interesting because I'm curious about weird/new stuff, but it's not really enjoyable for me.

I never thought Joe was sensitive about the size of his manhood.

Jute Gyte also play an almost drill and bass-y experimental electronic type thing on some albums

That second track reminds me of a bit in the Trigun OST.
But hmm yeah maybe I'll check one of their albums.

Some UK death metal

This is from July and it's too good to be missed.Intense, hard hitting black metal.

Old Man Gloom's new track sounds tasty.

Stream it here.

Cvlt Nation shared some stuff by Aleph Null. Pretty nice sounding stuff

Primitive Man release a new EP this winter. The first snippet entitled "Loathe" is available for streaming and free download below. Enjoy!

This girl opened for Alcest in their South American tour and brought her first EP with her. She has a lovely voice and did a really good job with the songwriting.
Also, she played all instruments on the EP except drums.

Alantagrde Music has put two tracks from Vulturium Memoriae on bandcamp . Has nice Aluk Todol feeling in it. Definitely an album to keep track of.

PROJECT TERROR Conquistador (US Prog.Power with Ronnie Stixx - ex Shdowkeep and ex Vicious Rumors)
WICKED WALTZ Perseverance (US Prog. Metal with Scott Huffman)
VENGEFUL GHOUL Eternal warfare (Band from Turkey - playing US Power)
SAVAGE WIZDOM A new beginnig (Pure US Power)
SUNLESS SKY Firebreather (Pure US Power with Juan Ricardo - ex Ritual and Dark Arena)
PROMISE LAND Harmony ruins (From USA. Like Savatage meets Psychotic Waltz meets Beyond Twilight)

Experimental, nonconforming sludge from Down Under. Pretty nasty shit right here.

Hehe, with a cover like that (picture of Jack The Ripper's last victim), and that those tags, this goes on the pile of stuff I have to listen to.

Well that's definitely one of the best things I've heard this year.

That "Name your price" option.

I shall give them 10 bottlecaps and my Showaddywaddy LP collection.

Well I'd say more drone/doom than just sludge, but it wasn't unpleasant at all.

I always loved that picture. That alone is a reason to check it out.

Some nice Swedish heavy metal throwback.

Never liked these AC/DC copycats,

at least they did away with wanting to be AC/DC on this track, now it is just an Accept copycat.

It's always a pleasure to watch some chicks playing their instruments...although the song was pretty bad and the vid hilarious at times.

I don't know what kind of tone you wanted your comment to have, but the first half of your comment *might* be a little offensive. It doesn't really offend me, but for consistency's sake, I'm going to call you out on it (just as people did with Zaphod on some thread about the new singer of some band). I don't want to place blame on you; rather, I think we need to avoid those kind of comments about women in the future. OK?

Now to keep the thread going, I have to recommend my album of the year so far, Vectorscan by Amogh Symphony: http://amoghsymphony.bandcamp.com/album/vectorscan
