VIPASSI
Benzaiten (Radio Promo)

This single is some cool prog metal that reminds me a bit of Cynic with the prominent bass riffage, kind of a melodic death feel and most definitely prog.

EMPTINESS
Meat Heart (Radio Promo)
Season of Mist
20 January 2017
Kind of a doomy dark death metal.

Ranger

Classic old school thrash, great stuff, fast, heavy, catchy and melodic too.

Legion Within
Scourge

This is more or less alt-rock type stuff.

Gone Is Gone

Kind of a grooving doom, maybe a little prog.  Not real heavy, just chilled out hard rocking stuff.

Machinae Supremacy
Into The Night World
BD Pop
Sounds a little bit like In Flames meets a hard prog type thing like Fair to Midland.

Grave Digger
Healed By Metal
Napalm Records
Good ol german classic thrashy metal.  This band has been around forever and they still know how to put out the great metal

Sepultura
Machine Messiah
Nuclear Blast USA
First track (title track) starts off kind of slow… the 2nd track which is the lead single… now we’re talking.  Heavy raw metal!  Not much real signature tribal Sepultura stuff, just the full heavier old school death metal style.  The next track has more of a classic Sepultura feel… a bit more melodic and catchy.  Cool stuff.

Heavier hard rock maybe a little bit of a groove metal Static X type thing with mostly clean vox.

I’ve been a fan of this band in the past, then kind of lost interest, well, this one has me back.  Darker, heavier, but still going back to that melodic proggy metal too.  Lots of emotion coming through on this one too.
