  • Epica's newest album, The Classical Conspiracy, is right the fuck up my alley.

    Only a sampling - check out other songs in the related videos. If you decide to torrent this, just note that the most well-seeded torrent is a bootleg recording with really terrible quality. There is a good one though.

    I have never been more fucking pumped by a song in my life. I need to buy this album.


    EDIT: I bought it. This album is effing glorious, Not to mention a great deal. It's almost two and a half hours of music for $9 on Amazon MP3.

  • I got Blood Venus by Goliath Bird Eater in the mail today, and it's really fucking good. Fans of sludgy stoner metal will dig it.

    It's a bit hard to find on teh torrents, so

    Blood Venus rules, you should all download it right away. I've been listening to Mount Eerie's new album Wind's Poem a little bit lately. I posted about him a few pages back. On this new album, he has totally taken the plunge into metal. Some of the tracks on here are down right brutal, balanced out by his tried and true folk and ambient pieces.

  • I'm shocked by the lack of Ayreon in the progressive metal discussion. People should really check it out, all the albums are fantastic, especially 'Into The Electric Castle', 'The Final Experiment', and '01011001'

    Seriously people:

    I'm pretty sure we have just found the legitimate best metal band ever.

    [Edit] They call themselves bardcore.

    I second this. I love everything about this band, and that is a rare thing for me when it comes to metal.
  • Bardcore. That's fucking awesome. The music itself is alright - it's not too special - but the concept is really what makes this for me.

    I think they struck a good chord with the music (ha). It's simple, catchy, and hard to really dislike; rather like AC/DC.
  • So, Mastodon is touring with "Dethklok" this year and there's no way in hell that I'm missing it.

    I'm trying to get some friends together to go see the Myrtle Beach show. That concert is going to be freaking awesome!

    I'm almost finished Heaven & Hell's first album (not as Black Sabbath), The Devil You Know and I would have to say that it is almost on par with Black Sabbath's Heaven & Hell album. It's definitely worth a listen. Maybe this can be some blog fodder in the future...

  • My favorite track out of Devil You Know is Bible Black.
  • "Smooth Jazz" Lamb of God.


    For comparison's sake:


    "Radio Disney" Slipknot

    "Put your fucking hands in the fucking air!"

    That makes me wish the actual band sounded like that.

    Upon further investigation, AndyRehfeldt is amazing.

  • Oh good, I thought they tried to do a cover of Black Sabbath's Paranoid. I'm relieved.
  • I know previously in this thread the band Lightning Bolt was classified as noise and not metal, but their newest track is pretty brootal.

    Hmmmm...That would be worth the two-hour, $50 round-trip Amtrak ride from my school to Chicago.
