Armored Saint
Win Hands Down
Metal Blade Records
Well, we got the full album now, and it’s just what you’d expect, great classic metal and how can you go wrong with this band, and especially with John Bush singing?  Great catchy riffs, melodies and just all around great metal.

We Butter The Bread With Butter
Weider Geil!
AFM
Kind of a metalcore, and maybe even nu-metal, with some electronic static x/rammstein type stuff going on too… Overall, it’s good and heavy and catchy.

Turbowolf
Two Hands
Spinefarm
kind of a stoner metal or commercial-ish metal.  Catchy, great riffs, clean vox, maybe a little bit proggy.

Anti-Flag
American Spring
Spinefarm
Poppy punk hard rock

Cattle Decapitation
Manufactured Extinct (Single)
Metal Blade Records
First new stuff in three years! (doesn’t seem that long).  Intro starts off a bit slow, but then BAM… we’re good.  Heavy, grindy and in your face fucking brutal shit man.  Yeah.

White House Burning
I Am Hatred
WHB Entertainment
On one hand, it sounds like some just standard metal, but deeper in, there’s some cool thrashy and heavy moments too.

(Tony Gabriele’s) Orbynot
Without A Trace
Independent
Standard metal with a bit of thrash and female vocals… a bit sung/raspy… not growly or opera-ey.

Our Transfixion
Our Transfixion

This is one of those bands that’s pretty cool. Brutal, catchy metalcore stuff with good melodies yet heavy too but then…. whiney vox in a chorus that just i dunno… ruins it for me.

COLD CELL
Lowlife
Avantgarde Music
Release Date: 25 May 2015
Genre: Dark Black Metal | Country: Switzerland
So yeah, the genre says it all… it’s a classic black metal, has a dark evil feel, maybe along the lines of a Satyricon in style and heaviness.

MARUTA
Remain Dystopian (Radio Promo)
Relapse Records
Fast Grindy death metal.  Just two short tracks, but it’s good stuff with no fucking around.

SKINLESS
Only The Ruthless Remain (Radio Promo)
Relapse Records
Just a single so far, but this is sick brutal death metal like they’ve always done.  Can’t wait to hear more.

Ashbringer
Vcant
Avantgarde Music
Classic sounding black metal, a bit doomy and depressing overall, with moments of blast beatty black metal.

Standard metal with proggy thrash elements

Amestigon
Thier
W.T.C.Productions
Doomy black metal, but this actually gets going and heavy in parts.

Cult Of Endtime
In Charnel Lights
Svart Records
Blackened death metal with groove.  Brutal stuff a bit down tempo in parts, lots of meaty riffs, abrasive vox… pretty cool stuff.

Autokrator
Autokrator
Iron Bonehead
Wall of black/death metal noise.  hard to really even tell what’s going on here.

Somehow Jo!
Satans Of Swing
Inverse Records
Reminds me a little bit of Kings X or Galactic Cowboys in heaviness and style… Melodic hard rock stuff with some melodies

Impurity
Into the Ritual Chamber
Greyhaze Records
A groove thrashy thing… but with vocals that are more in a black metal voice style… interesting mix
