new beauties came in list , spinned one time all, soon will come comments in each album thread, as always I do it whit new ones and new one last 3-4 years I listen 3 times before I coment, so far no killer surprises, small let downs

Bloodwish - Beyond Our Legacy

old geezers remember in 2005 something to 2009 I was in MA every day 10 hours and dig bands, in French list somehow for some reason I dug thius demo and downloadet from old my space. Its good TM, but band needs full album and re record this, good idea, bad sound. Now I go trough french bands and well listen this one and now dont ask why I downloafdet this

The last album I listened to was Awaken the Guardian by Fates Warning. I've been listening to a lot of classic stuff from the early to mid 80s lately. Personally, I prefer Fates Warning's early USPM era over their prog stuff. Don't get me wrong; their prog stuff is great. I just really enjoy 80s power/speed metal.

Impaled Nazarene - Road to the Octagon ; Quite amazing really, fun album, super catchy and hilarious at times (Gag Reflex, Rhetoric Infernal, Cult of the Goat)
Judas Priest - Point of Entry; Amazing rock album, it's like the sequel to Rocka Rolla, and I really like that one. Fun, simple, catchy, but sometimes too watered down.
Incantation - Mortal Throne of Nazarene; I'm just on my third playthrough. Amazing so far, the last song is so epic. The atmosphere is just unreal, dark, and infernal.
Gallows End - Nemesis Divina; Above average heavy metal with a great guitar tone, and some creative melodic ideas. Only on my 2nd playthrough.

Impaled Nazarene - Road to the Octagon ; Quite amazing really, fun album, super catchy and hilarious at times (Gag Reflex, Rhetoric Infernal, Cult of the Goat)

Pretty much how I'd describe most of their discography. Basically the perfect band to get drunk to at a party

Tristitia - Burial Of The Sad
Its forgotten band unique black ro blackened doom metal in the world, non other plays similar, I like but I have not lusten this band so much

Golem - Eternity: The Weeping Horizons
artwork was what turned me on to check that band

White Lion - Fight To Survive
Good band came in special time, what made band be as they are but same time, its just one generation band,

Brainstorm - Hungry
I wish I can influence Maco listen PM



Horn - Mohngang
Old Corpse Road - On Ghastly Shores Lays The Wreckage Of Our Lore
Paradise Lost - Obsidian
Firewind - Firewind
Sinisthra - The Broad And Beaten Way
Tyrant (US) - Hereafter
Exgenesis - Solve Et Coagula

another bunch of new ones, I am curius to all actually, sortha good list again mixture between good bands, and good another genre bands and good diferent genre bands. Its metal , metal is genres, never stucked to one

Rad a Trest (Order And Punishment) by !T.O.O.H.!

My all-time top 10 album without a doubt, I never get tired of it. It's so catchy and so complex at the same time that I don't even know how they made something so brilliant. I was actually listening to some Nightingale stuff afterwards and I found myself feeling completely bored. Dan Swanö is one of the most awesome and most prolific metal musicians ever and while not everything he's ever done is excellent, the fact that Nightingale sounds boring AF after Rad a Trest is a testament to how great the latter album is.

Just listened to Terra Incognita by Gojira and all I can say is it was low tier ok

Crystallion - Hattïn
Jacobs Dream - Jacobs Dream
Jacobs Dream - Theater Of War
Jacobs Dream - Drama Of The Ages
Jacobs Dream - Dominion Of Darkness
Jacobs Dream - Beneath The Shadows
Jacobs Dream - Sea Of Destiny


Such classic band, sad nobody talks, listens and knows this one, I decide go trought whole albums. I know Rico likes this band, but sad such good US PM is forgotten in MS comunity. They dont desapoint

Wolftooth - Valhalla
Árstíðir Lífsins - Saga Á Tveim Tungum II: Eigi Fjǫll Né Firðir

Grave Digger - Fields Of Blood
Sorcerer - Lamenting Of The Innocent

Few good things, as new list comments follow, it was most road music , diggital. North is amazing on 100 km road between Arjeplog and Arvidsjaur few days ago between 22:00 and 23:00 you can drive 10km per h because sun was so bright shining, you dont see the road, because of sun, as you know in the north it never goes down.
Most interesting was Wino because its acoustic , Carach Angren because new sound and Falconer as their last.

Russian Circles - "Blood Year".

Kvaen - The Funeral Pyre

An excellent melodic black metal album, and what a debut! Fierce vocals, excellent guitar melodies, and nice production. AOTY contender for me for sure.

(Ech0) - Below the Cover of Clouds

Pretty nice melodic doom, good atmosphere, pretty refreshing in my opinion.

Ensiferum - Thalassic
Rebel Wizard - Magickal Mystical Indifference
Ringarë - Sorrow Befell

well hard du judge those, not in mood, some good, some, not so but it will work

Psychedelic rock band Melua from Finland.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA_cyAp842U

Listening to Inhaler by Tad. Feel a little late to the party on it. What an album, fairly consistent but definitely highs and lows on it. Starts great. Personally have a soft spot for "Rotor". Serious set of lungs on him, has a bit of a Rollins band feel but down tuned. Love the bass Tone and he has good variety in his vocals can sing and go angry flawlessly

NightCreepers - Towards Abyss
NightCreepers - Svingeheim
NightCreepers - Alpha
NightCreepers - Hreidd
If you dont think about name, listen what band actually plays you will like it, good band , try

Long time ago as young men in 20's I did listen, dont remember if it was songs, whole albums, well many yes but all I dont remember. I re started listen boat like 3-4 years ago, but did noty manage, only BH . Since CU has new album out this year and somehow in the work, I did listen Necropolos few times in my brake. So I decide listen whole albums. From opening CU wins, MR was bad,. that band born to me whit Crystal Logic album. I dont remember how they sound later , so I am interested, and CU always is good re listen.

This band is to heavy to be just power metal, but not heavy enough to be thrash. IN US we have good thing, USPM. Well it sonds abit such way.
As I remember non song sounds same, it has weird old school jamming song writing, Accept or Udo each song has same song writing, here no, different process. I like it a lot. Good band, sad there are no actual album planned as we know. Good band , somehow we can ad groove pre fix. A bit Pantera, you know in soother Sweden there are rednecks to, hehhe. No they are not as Phil. lol. Anyway solid band, such genre mixture are not popular, not many likes it. Its underated, I wish many would know it more, specially those who are under 25.


Benediction - Scriptures
Wayfarer - A Romance With Violence
Spirit Adrift - Enlightened In Eternity
Nightstryke - Storm Of Steel

Quiet Riot - Quiet Riot
Crowbar - Obedience Thru Suffering

Wow this album is pretty crazy. Black metal with breakdowns and electronic elements. Songs are a little disjointed but there are some great moments.

Leviathan - The Tenth Sub Level of Suicide

Forgot how amazing this album was!

I'm in a Coffin - Waste of Skin

Bit underwhelming, not sure if it was just because the first album cam out around the dsbm Hay day but it just doesn't have the same impact. Still very depressing.

Make a change... Kill yourself

First one is the best one

Cryptic Shift - Visitations of Enceladus
absolutely love this album. Vektor does death metal, with a bit of Blood Incantation mixed in for good measure. Incredible album, and my death metal AotY thus far

Graceless - Where Vultures Know Your name
Another incredible 2020 release, Bolt Thrower with a touch of death-doom.

On Thorns I Lay - Threnos
the 3rd of my "2020 DM top 3". This and Graceless are both heavier than a neutron star

I've got the Cryptic Shift on vinyl. A very good album indeed, but far away from AOTY material.
I love that Graceless album. Just Checked out the new Benediction and that's even better: what a comeback.

agree to disagree on Cryptic Shift. The bits of prog death mixed in with technical thrash hits the nail on the head for me.
