LET US PREY
DEADLIGHT SUNSET (single)
M-THEORY AUDIO
This one has a laid back progressive feel, clean vox, sounds like a drum machine providing the beat… a bit ballad-y

Famous Underground
In My Reflection
Self Released
A bit of a classic metal, a little thrashy, a little bit of Megadeth sound vocally.

TRIVIUM
“In The Court Of The Dragon”
Roadrunner
A new single that doesn’t waste any time getting going… cold start with punishing riffs and screamin’ vox. Heavier than usual… sounding more like shadows fall here than metallica. Cool stuff.

HEADLESS
STREETLIGHT BUZZ
M-THEORY AUDIO
Melodic and classic metal type stuff. clean vox, a little 90’s AOR type sound too.

SHADOWS FALL
OF ONE BLOOD (reissue)
M-THEORY AUDIO
Speaking of Shadows Fall.. after selling out this album on last year’s record store day and the reunion show coming up later this year… the stock is high. I don’t think this is remastered or anything… sounds good though!

GOD FORBID
“DETERMINATION”
M-THEORY AUDIO
Another reissue for M-Theory for an american new wave of metal type band… another good excuse to revisit… I thought they were “ok” back in the day, but looking back, they deserve another listen.

MINISTRY
Good Trouble (single)
Moral Hygiene
Nuclear Blast
A bit more laid back overall, but still a classic Ministry sound, with the megaphone voice guy over classic industrial sound.

Portrait
Phantom Fathomer – radio single
Metal Blade Records
3 September 2021
Classic metal with a Dio-like sound… cool stuff… full album in Sept.

Rising Insane
“Afterglow”
Long Branch Records
Modern metalcore type stuff… Clean emo-ish vox.

Laurenne/Louhimo
The Reckoning
Frontiers Music SRL
Vox from frontwomen of Battle Beast and Smackbound with this heavy classic metal thing with some great dual powerful voices and catchy msuic…

Cognitive
Malevolent Thoughts of a Hastened Extinction
Unique Leader
Crisp brutal heavy death metal. Wall of punishing brutality with great catchy stuff too.

Eradicator
Influence Denied
Metalville Records
Classic thrash sound with a modern just “metal” thing going on, cool stuff!

Wizardthrone
Hypercube Necrodimensions
Napalm Records
Epic thrashy blackened symphonic type stuff… Over the top and awesome!

Die Apokalyptischen Reiter

Melodic deathy thrash, a bit epic, a bit wall of sound, some symphonic black metal stuff too… cool stuff!

Pretty straightforward black/death metal… about a 50/50 mix on whether it’s black or death metal

Epic power metal, and yeah, catchy and heavy in parts, pretty straightforward power metal overall.

Paradise Lost
At The Mill

16 July 2021
Live album playing through some songs… I’m been “ok” with this band over the years, so this isn’t jumping at me, but maybe a good reason to give them another try.
