[link] List update. It's been a while so I went through and updated the current bands, but I did add 4 new bands (2 of which are phenomenal) Please check 'em out :)

Farmer black metal, Tribal black metal and Western black. Euronymous must be rolling in his grave.

I'm listening to Emptiness for the first time and wow.

04:00 - Apothecary
Which reminds me that there should be a new Tribulation album this year as well. Should be pretty promising considering the almost unanimously positive reception to their last one

03:43 - Fearmeister
Lugubrum is a great band

03:41 - Karlabos
That Lugubrum is pretty good btw. Weird, I've listened to a release of theirs before but found it was ordinary.

Coroner is one of those Thrash Metal bands that got disbanded in the early nineties as a result of the overall decline in the scene. However this similarity with other bands of the genre is probably the only one because no one played like Coroner. Of course, there were other bands labeled as Technical Thrash, but not one of them was as cool as them, especially concerning the technical side itself. When this trio play, nothing is static; the music flows with so many changes that it's impossible to get bored.

Classic album for it's time, and perhaps a shining example of Coroner's forward-thinking creativity.

"I Want You (She's So Heavy)" is the best cover song I ever heard ... obsessively hypnotic, brilliant arrangement
