I think I can make out a D at the end.....other than that I can't tell.

Metal Sucks used to run this contest with unreadable band logos. I swear with most of them you just had to know the band because you really couldn't read them. I don't know if they still do it or not.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Yea they still run that. Friends apparently Alice in Chains new record is out in the wild.

 

[MetalGuardian]

Here's a two minute sample of Thy Light's first new work in six years, "No Morrow Shall Dawn".

I cal already tell this is pretty much going to be my AOTY.

Was that an actual suicide in the video?

 

[forknknife]

What does MetalGAF think of Extol? New/reunion album coming out in June.

I was listening again to Undeceived after your post. This song might be my favourite from them

Extol - Time Stands Still

Their lyrics make me cringe so much, though.

They do, but you can just reverse image search on Google to get the answer.

 

[SoulPlaya]

There's a new A Pale Horse Named Death album? YES!

Ah! Those guys I discovered recently, really cool stuff! Ex.Type O Negative.

Can't watch the video here in the Netherlands though

Their debut album was fantastic. Pick it up, if you haven't.

Yeah, that kind of spoils the fun of it now.

 

[Giant Robot]

Baloff by far. Souza's voice is nasally mediocre.

I love both, Baloff probably edges Souza a bit because of his legacy. But Pleasures of the Flesh and Fabulous Disaster are mighty fine albums that I can't imagine Baloff singing on.

Crosspost from the pic thread. I was at the Hell & Heaven festival in Guadalajara, Mexico the other day and took some pics:

Gary Holt (Exodus/Slayer)

Anders Friden (In Flames)

Fernando Ribeiro (Moonspell)

Damien Boynton (Vital Remains)

Epica (one of their last shows before Simone leaves to have her child)

Testament (or Anthrax, I'm not sure) gear

Gilby Clarke (ex Guns n Roses)

Scott Ian (Anthrax)

Suicidal Tendencies (with Testament watching in the background, lol)

Lemmy

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Was that an actual suicide in the video?

I choose to believe it's not, and won't do any research to find out. Easier that way.

(Also I hadn't actually watched the video until now, since I just assumed it'd be the standard "band logo" type of preview video. I just tabbed over once the song started. That'll teach me, I guess.)

Yeah, Amazon's specific weekly stuff runs out June 11th so June 18th and on is bunched together and in no order by release date.

1. Serums of Liao
2. Frost Hammer
3. 10,000 Years
4. Devolution
5. Last
6. Fertile Green
7. Speedwolf

Charles Bronson wouldn't approve metalcore and melodic death metal.

 

[GutsOfThor]

Finally checked out Disarmonia Mundi's "Fragments of D-Generation" and I love it!

Love this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jT9ZsvC4uJA

no.
at the gates, skitsystem & disfear are more like it.
face what happened, you used to be cool.

I think that's the vocalist from Converge.
I'm not into them either, but whatever.

EDIT: whoops, thought you were referring to the neck tattoo guy.

 

[FACE]

no.

I am cool, brah. The bands you listed, however, aren't.

I'm not quite sure you even know what you're talking about
but okaaaaay for the record: not trying to start a fight here, but skitsystem (with and without tompa who is the guy in the pic), disfear etc. are far from poser metalcore stuff imho

 

[Ravager61]

You're being a twat

i don't disagree with face but you don't have to be such a so and so about it. people like what they like, man.

 

[SpartanForce]

Seems FACE is back, for good or bad.
I wonder why he was banned though?

[Vio-Lence]

like our esteemed colleague Giant Robot correctly pointed out, Left Hand Path + Clandestine = best Swedish DM. I'm not sure why we got sidetracked by Wolverine Blues cover discussion.



If anything we should commend FACE for showing amazing restraint with the guy who said Bonded by Blood sucked.

None of this discussion would have happened if Wolverine Blues was never released

The Bonded By Blood rage in this thread made me listen to the first three Exodus albums today and it was a good day.

 

[Lambda Pie]

haven't updated in a while so here it goes.

- 2 new songs (well 1 song and a demo) for the new Perennial Quest album (Doom Metal):

It Comes To An End
https://soundcloud.com/z-carlos-10/perennial-quest-07-it-comes-to

The Kingdom At Your Feet
https://soundcloud.com/z-carlos-10/perennial-quest-demo-the

- 2 first complete songs from Prose Edda, last time i showed them they were 60 seconds long each (Folk/Viking Metal):

Drinking With The Gods
http://soundcloud.com/z-carlos-10/prose-edda-01-drinking-with

Ravens Carry The Northwind
http://soundcloud.com/z-carlos-10/prose-edda-02-ravens-carry-the

- and finally, first demo of Sacred Shield (Power Metal):

Wield The Shining Blade
https://soundcloud.com/z-carlos-10/sacred-shield-demo-wield-the

that's all for now.

 

[FelixOrion]

Because I'm a twat.

At least you owned up to it

 

[ShaneB]

FACE doesn't like anything. It's best to not try and convince him otherwise, leave him be.

 

[RDreamer]

The month of June has a lot of big metal releases, what are you looking forward to?

This whole year has been crazy for metal. this is my list so far:

The Living Infinite - Soilwork
Circle - Amorphis
Spiritual Migration - Persefone
One of Use is the Killer - The Dillinger Escape Plan
Heart of Oak - Anciients
Infestissumam - Ghost
Beyond - Omnium Gatherum
Disarm the Descent - Killswitch Engage
Vertikal - Cult of Luna
Bloodsvept - Finntroll
Target Earth - Voivod

Any recommendations of things I've missed?

Upcoming albums I'm looking forward to (or heard through streams and love already, like Tesseract):

Altered State - TesseracT - May 27
Construct - Dark Tranquillity - May 27
Coal - Leprous - May 28
Wisdom of Crowds - Bruce Soord with Jonas Renkse - June 3 (sort of metal, maybe... it is Katatonia's singer)
Old Mornings Dawn - Summoning - June 7
13 - Black Sabbath - June 11
Halo of Blood - Children of Bodom - June 11
Everblack - The Black Dahlia Murder - June 11
Migration - Scale The Summit - June 11
Deceiver Of The Gods - Amon Amarth June 25
All is One - Orphaned Land - June 27

And this year will also have new Cynic, possibly Dream Theater, and Ayreon, all of which are varying levels of metal and interest for me.

 

[Flynn]

If liking "Live the Storm" means I have bad taste I don't want to have good taste.

 

[Greg]

Any recommendations of things I've missed?

two solid releases not mentioned:

In Vain - Ænigma
Vreid - Welcome Farewell

 

[SpartanForce]

so carcass got with nuclear blast. release date for new album likely september.
I came.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

So I'm trying to get into Megadeth. I need some recommendations to make a perfect playlist.

Note: Mustaine's voice is really on/off for me. I hate songs like "Sweating Bullets" and its "Hello me..." part. So anything without the 'weird' Mustaine vocals is my bag. My fave songs are Peace Sells and Hanger 18. What other songs should i be giving plays to?
