19 April 2019
one of my most anticipated releases of the year! Their last album was a masterpiece… I’m sure this one will be too, they have been consistently great with the brutal technical death metal thing… this single fits the bill too!

Downfall Of Gaia
Ethic Of Radical Finitude
Metal Blade Records
5 February 2019
this has that cold black metal feel, while having a doomy melodic kind of post metal-ish thing (but not like so much that I hate it like most post-metal!) pretty good stuff, might have to dig deeper.

Skid Row
30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition
Rhino Entertainment
This album came out just before I was getting into the heavier music, I knew the hits, but never really gave the album a good full listen. Good excuse to now, and really appreciate how good of a front man Baz can be… firing on all cylinders here and now in remastered goodness.

King Diamond
Songs for the Dead Live
Metal Blade Records
25 January 2019
This is a live recording of two shows, one in Philly and one at Belgium’s Grasspop from 2015 and 2016 resepectively… so the recordings are a long awaited… and at the age of the King… he’s ageless! Voice is top notch and the music is also, and was ahead of its time… so still relevant and a nice clean recording. Gives a great reason to revist these songs again!

LORDS OF THE TRIDENT
Pull The Plug
Local
Selection of tracks across their discography done all unplugged, primarily for Patreon folks, but then released for all. Great new take on some classics, the new ones and a couple covers they do pretty much spot on (More than Words and Dust in the Wind)

A Pale Horse Named Death
When The World Becomes Undone
Long Branch Records
Next best thing to Type O Negative, a couple of former drummers, and a doomy melodic gothy type sound.

Imonolith
”Hollow”
Self Released
a new group of some former Devin Townsend band and Byron Stroud and others… It had a heavy edge some good wall of sound, but it’s got that accessible clean vox part, catchy… i’d like to hear s’more!

Magnum
Live at Symphony Hall
SPV
Classic metal, melodic metal, power metal type stuff, all live.. great performance and recording too

Raven
Screaming, Murder, Death From Above: Live in Aalborg
SPV
Classic NWOBHM stuff, but all new and live! They just came through here and I missed it, but yeah i heard it was waaaay great… this sort of makes up for it and makes me wish I found a way to go!

Kane Roberts
The New Normal
Frontiers SRL.
Solo album from longtime Alice Cooper axeman. One of the singles here features Alissa from Arch Enemy on vox, good catchy hard rock then getting good and metal when Alissa brings out the growls. Great song, the other has a little bit of a bluesy rock classic rock feel.

Incite
Built To Destroy
Minus Head Records
Famous for being the band of Max Cavalera’s step kid, this band has its own thing, a good catchy grooving extreme-ish metal. Harsh vox, guitars on “Built to Destroy” actually have a little bit of a Jeff Loomis tone to me

Dark Sky Choir
End Of Days
Independent
Classic metal, a tiny thrashy, a bit of a melodic edge too. Cool stuff.

Evergrey
The Atlantic

ANABASIS
OF CONVICTION
ANABASIS MUSIC
Here we got some prog metal meets melodic death, like two of my favorite genres!? yup Clean vox, harsh vox, fast playing, keyboards, distorted guitars, meedly stuff, time changes, this has it all. Great stuff!
