Prong
“Cut And Dry” [Single]
SPV
As with the first single, this is good classic catchy Prong!

Killswitch Engage
“Hate By Design” [Single]
Roadrunner
Well this track starts off brutal and full on metal, then shifts gears into a heavier KSE style… cool stuff, they don’t seem to be fucking around on this new one.

Anthrax
“Breathing Lightning” [Single]
Megaforce
As with the Prong… this song is a classic Joey Anthrax song… melodic, catchy with some hooks… not on the heavier/brutal side like the first single.  Sounds like it could have been on We’ve Come For You All as a radio single.  cool stuff.
Dream Theater
The Astonishing
Roadrunner
What can I say about the band that I call my favorite?  I mean, I’m automatically going to like it… What I like most about Dream Theater is the heavier “metal” moments… and sad to say there aren’t a whole lot of those on this 2 CD full on rock opera-like concept album.  Typically I say they are like Rush meets Metallica.  This album is more like Rush meets Styx.  Not that that’s a BAD thing, just like I said, I prefer more metal in my prog metal.  Still worth picking up… you’ll need some time to digest it, I know I need more time.

SEVEN SISTERS OF SLEEP
Ezekiel’s Hags (NA Promo)
Relapse Records
Doomy death metal with a bit of grind going on in the heavier stuff. The slower stuff has a good groove too.

OBSCURA
Akróasis (NA Promo)
Relapse Records
Technical, proggy, deathy, a bit metalcore-ish… but really tech death stuff.  Brutal in parts, melodic and chilled out in others… great stuff!

BLACK TUSK
Pillars of Ash (NA Promo)
Relapse Records
Stoner metal feel, but heavier and grittier.  So like extreme stoner?  Yeah.  Great meaty riffs, some good grooves, but aggressive too.

Striker
Stand In The Fire
Record Breaking Records
Traditional metal with some thrash leanings… and in some parts the heavy metal saxophone!  Overall, there’s a bit of an Iron Maiden feel mixed with some early 90’s hard rock type stuff.

Product Of Hate
Buried In Violence
Napalm Records
Catchy brutal thrash from Wisconsin’s very own Product of Hate.  Saw these guys at the Inferno last year.  Brutal techy not quite death metal, but heavier than thrash… great stuff.

Drowning Pool
Hellelujah
eOne Entertainment
As much as I wanted to hate this, it’s pretty catchy and good hard rockin’ stuff.  While still “solid rock”  it’s got a good groove and I’m sure it’d come across even heavier live too.  Not sure there will be a long term spot for this on the Mosh Pit, but it’s worth a listen.

Digitalife
Uroboros
Imminence Records
A sort of industrial melodic death type thing.  Screamy growling and electronic stuff too… good chugga chuggas and meaty riffs too.

Ketzer
Starless
Metal Blade Records
Melodic and kinda proggy melodic death type stuff with a bit of a black metal feel.

BLOODPHEMY
BLOODPHEMY
Sleaszy Rider

OCERCO
A Desolação

Black metal with a little bit of an atmospheric feel.

Arrayan Path

A prog metal type thing… some cool power metal stuff getting into melodic death stuff in parts.  Music matches along, a heavier grooving power metal, then getting into a heavier thrashy thing too.

One Morning Left
Metalcore Superstars
Inverse
Emo-ish vox then getting into some growly stuff… so yeah “post metal” or metalcore stuff with singy emo stuff in parts too.  Oh yeah, some electronic dancy stuff here and there too.  Pretty diverse thing here, but as weird and “emo” as it gets, this Finnish band here is interesting.

DIVINITY
The Immortalist Part 2. Momentum
Self-Release (Asher)
4 song ep of groovin’ melodic proggy death metal.  Cool stuff.

Rhine

Hippie Heart Gypsy Soul

Classic rock sounding stuff… just a single.

POWER FROM HELL
Devil’s Whorehouse (CD, LP)
Hells Headbangers
Classic black metal vox sound, music is a more grooving black metal… production isn’t awful, but it’s not that great.

THE VEER UNION
Decade
Label: Pavement Entertainment
Commerical hard rock type stuff… sounds decent, just not for the Mosh Pit.

Megadeth
Dystopia
UME
What can I say… it’s new Megadeth, new drummer, new guitarist, still the Daves remain.  This has a good edge, the vocals are not trying too hard to sound like the old days, a good harsh lower sound which seems to fit what Mustaine can do these days and it works well with the music, which seems more edgy, thrashy and still melodic and not “sell outie”.  Good stuff.

Toothgrinder
Nocturnal Masquerade
Spinefarm
Melodic metalcore-ish I guess.  It’s got some melodic prog metal stuff going on in parts, other parts seem like straightforward screamy growly metal core.  Pretty cool interesting stuff that isn’t boring.

Serenity
Codex Alanticus
Napalm Records
An epic symphonic metal… decent heaviness, clean vox, these guys have been around a while, so they’re not going to mess with their formula too much.  Decent stuff overall.

Billion Dollar Babies
Chemical God
Metalville Records
A more “accessible” solid rock type of metal.  Catchy cool stuff, polished sound with a bit of electronic hits and stuff.

Avantasia
Ghostlights
Label: Nuclear Blast Records
This kicked off on the intro track, I thought I was listening to a Meatloaf album.  (Not that there’s anything wrong with that).  But, continuing on, this is some melodic hard rocking symphonic power metal type stuff… Some parts get a little bit more “metal”  but this seems a lot more AOR than metal to me.  still pretty cool and epic though.

Baphomet’s Blood
In Satan We Trust LP
Iron Bonehead
Blackened thrashy metal. There’s some melodic stuff, maybe a pinch of a Motorhead loud-in-your-face thing happening.

Exumer
The Raging Tides
Metal Blade Records
This some serious old school classic sounding thrash.  Great stuff.  Riffage galore.  Kind of an older classic

IRON JAWED GURU
Mata Hari
Grimoire Records
This is some pretty sweet instrumental stoner metal.  Maybe along the lines more of a Mastodon.  Good grooves, a bit proggy.  Good stuff.

Titaan
Kadingir
ATMF
Classic brutal black metal.  Blast beats, cold guitars, screamy and growly vox.

Fall
The Insatiable Weakness
Self-Released
Melodic metal with keyboards and oh, I guess it could be melodic death, as there are growly things happening too.  Seems a bit more like a metalcore with the style of the clean vocals.  As I get deeper into the album, the heavier growly stuff gets stronger and makes the clean vox not seem so bad. Pretty cool stuff actually…and to have something of this genre out of Texas makes it better!?  yeah.

Hexvessel
When We Are Death
Century Media
A big 70’s psychedelic throwback

Forndom
Dauðra Dura
Nordvis Produktion
Doomy ambient depression.  Not going to qualify this one as metal… huh.

PROLL GUNS
Horseflesh BBQ
Label: Nrt-Records
Hard rockin’ metal… I’d say they’d compare to Clutch with energy and catchiness… maybe a bit heavier in parts… 3 song EP has a good driving groove and edge too.

A THOUSAND SUFFERINGS
Burden
Satanath Records
Kind of a creepy doom metal

Enzo and the Glory Ensemble
In the Name of The Father
Label: Underground Symphony
Always fun to get a symphonic prog metal band from Italy.   you know it’s going to be a bit cheesey, but still epic and cool.  This one has vocals that are in a lower register… I’m used to that over the top screamy singing.  This seems to have a bit more emotion vocally because of it.  Judging by the vocals and some other reading… this is a full on Christian metal thing with a lot of guest musicians… The guest musicians include Marty Friedman (ex-Megadeth), Kobi Farhi (Orphaned Land), Ralph Scheepers (Primal Fear), Mark Zonder (Fates Warning & Warlord ), Gary Wehrkamp (Shadow Gallery),  Brian Ashland (Shadow Gallery), Amulyn (Whispers From Heaven) and Nicholas Leptos (Warlord).

Justice Theory
Necessary Evil (single)
Inverse
Great melodic thrash with a throwback to classic thrash, but with a modern feel.  While they are Finnish, this sounds like that new wave of american thrash stuff.  Me want more!

Band name: JACOB LIZOTTE
Title: FOR THE FALLEN ONES
Label: SELF RELEASED
Kinda thrashy, and kinda just your standard classic metal too.

Band: Jack
Album: Neurozis
Label: Give Praise records
Grindy brutal thrashy death metal.

AVITAS
Pioneers
Bud Metal Records
classic old school sounding black metal.  cold, melodic and creepy.

WHEEL IN THE SKY
Heading For The Night
Label: The Sign Records
A guitary hard rock type thing… reminds me a little bit of The Cult.

INEDIA
ARITMIA WASTELAND
Sleazy Rider
Melodic hard rock

MR. RIOT
SAME OLD TOWN
Sleazy Rider
More hard rock… a little raw and punky… otherwise, there’s some sort of 90’s throwback… a fun hard rockin’ thing.

ROTTING CHRIST
TRIARCHY OF THE LOST LOVERS
SLeaszy Rider
Reissue of their 1996 album.  sounds good… sounded good back then too.

Band: Ildverden
Album: Temnich Chorna Jde Za Mnoyu
Label: Satanath records
Ukrainian black metal a bit of melody, cold classic black metal feel.  Long songs…   and a bonus cover of The Wolfpack from Satyricon!

HÄLLAS
Hällas
Label: The Sign Records
Some cool sabbath-like stoner metal on this 4 song EP.

Band: Exterminas
Album: Dichotomy
Label: Satanath records
Black metal but with a bit more of a death metal thing.  Still has that cold dark black metal feel, but not as much as a super old school thing.  I guess a more modern raw melodic black metal is what’s going on.

DEATHRAID
Submit to the Will of Chaos
Iron Tyrant
A little thrashy, mostly deathy decent stuff.

SENESCENCE
Endoomed
Label: Self-Released
Doomy metal, but with a bit of a melodic almost proggy feel in parts.  (3 long songs)

This has been out for a little while, but never got pushed to metal radio… Now I guess isnce it’s nominated for a Grammy, they’re giving it another push… and well, since we didn’t do much with it when it came out, it’s worthy of airplay.  Good technical melodic deathcore type stuff.

AGORAPHOBIC NOSEBLEED
Arc (NA Promo)
Relapse Records
Screamy doomy and sludgey…3 long tracks and did I mention that it’s doomy?  Big Meaty sound

Bury Tomorrow
Earthbound
Nuclear Blast USA
Just a single in my hands for now… but it seems like some melodic death/metalcore type stuff.  Abrasive and brutal while still being melodic and catchy…

Conan
Revengence
Napalm Records
Kind of a sludgey doom

Degradead
Degradead
Metalville Records
sounds like some pretty cool melodic death.  Great contrast between some very clean sung vox and screamy death stuff too.  Great melodic guitar work contrasting to blast beaty technical death metal type stuff.  Catchy and brutal all at the same time.  Cool stuff.

Grieved
Grieved
Prosthetic Records
A sort of doom tinged hardcore, good heavy edge while still being true to hardcore too.

MORTUARY
Nothingless Than Nothingness
Label: Goregeous Productions
Thrashy classic death metal.  Great groove sounds like some German edgy influence… just a brutal heavy death metal.  Me likey.

Brimstone Coven
Black Magic
Metal Blade Records
A grooving laid back stoner metal with a bit of a 70’s throwback

CHARMING TIMUR
So Much So Little So Little So Much
Self Released
A modern post metal doomy black-ish metal with synthy stuff going on too.

PRIMAL FEAR
Rulebreaker
Frontiers Music srl
Heavy classic metal/power metal with a great edge.  These guys have always been at the top of this genre and this album keeps it up.  Melodic grooving power metal makes you want to pump your fist, sing along AND mosh it up too.

Borknagar
Winter Thrice
Century Media
Melodic folky proggy black metal. There’s folk and black metal blended with prog to make it a full package. Great stuff.

HELL IN THE CLUB
Shadow Of The Monster
Scarlet Records
A modern almost emo core thing to a quick snippet… but moving into it a bit more, it’s a driving hard rock with a strong 80’s/90’s hard rock/metal thing going on.  Probably something like the Italian Steel Panther.

Various Artists
4 Doors to Death
Unspeakable Axe Records
22 January 2016

Slægt
Beautiful and Damned 12″ MLP
Iron Bonehead
Brutal black metal, but listen deeper, you have actual real melodic guitar solos and some really cool stuff.  Cool abrasive growly vox.

Chthonic Cult
I Am the Scourge of Eternity
Iron Bonehead
Kind of a doomy blackened death metal… big meaty riffs in parts with a groove yet going full on black/death metal too.

Temple Below
The Dark Goddess 12″ MLP
Iron Bonehead
Grindy brutal blackened death metal.  Growly vox, drony black metal guitars, but a solid groove when there aren’t blast beats going on.

Seer
Vol. 1 & 2
Art of Propaganda
Doom with some melodic sludge

Peace Killers
Peace Killers
Svart Records
Good ol metal.  A doomy stoner vibe with a bit of some melodic classic metal going on, but the vocal production is in your face…

Wrathrone
Born Beneath
Inverse
Blackened death metal, good chunky groove, brutal vocals and overall brutal sound with a bit of melody.

CHRONOS ZERO
Hollowlands
Scarlet Records
prog metal with some good variety, male and clean female vocals. Music has some balls and good classic prog metal sorta like Dream Theater/Symphony X… contrasting vocals make it kinda neat.

Black Blood
Black Blood
Inverse
I know I use the word groove enough… but this IS real groove metal.  Foot tappin’ head bobbin’ good classic groove metal.  Lots of meaty riffs.

Wolfhorde
Towards The Gates of North
Inverse
Proggy melodic folk death metal.  This will go along well with the Borknagar above… but more folky.

Escalane
The Days of Decay
Inverse
Female fronted melodic hard rock… synthy and a bit too “poppy” for our show.
