You know the drill. Here's some rather fine sounding Cthulhu driven death metal that's not due for release until 2013, with extraordinarily beautiful cover artwork (check out the detail in the full image):

New video out of Correction's House full lenght (yes, mtv... wtf?). I've been shouting a lot about these guys but never put them on this thread I think, let's do now that their debut is out for almost a month already One of my favorites of the year.


Completely agree. The first single they released wasn't bad but the overall full release is definitely better. One of the most interesting albuns I heard in 2013, mixing atmospheric sludge and industrial in an experimental way. And it's great that they were able to fit a "apocalyptic Johnny Cash song in there contributing to the vibe of the album:

Some pretty cool sounding death metal. The guy from Chaos Moon is in this band apparently.

Lithotome's debut is really good, Aseity the debut of his other project Esoterica is also pretty nice.


Wolvserpent's sophomore album Perigea Antahkarana is quite enjoyable to say the least. Drone/Ambient/Black

Gardenia, some rather heavy psych/prog from Argentina. They made quite an impression in the national underground with this release.

I've never been a big fan of them, but this album made ​​me curious. I will keep an eye on this.

Well, this came out of nowhere for me. Jazz/Metal/Post/Classical/Prog/Funk/Whatever the fuck else it feels like being. It reminds me a bit of a more technically proficient Maudlin of the Well merged with Devin Townsend with moments of Animals as Leaders. Really great listen if you're looking for something a bit different.

Haven't been here in a bit, but these two bands caught my attention recently:

שְׁאוֹל (She-ol) - Sepulchral Ruins Below the Temple - Old school hellish sounding DM from the UK. Reminds me of the first Incantation album.



Vastum - Patricidal Lust - Doomy Death Metal from San Francisco, it has two members from crust/DM band Acephalix, which has a pretty decent album called Deathless Master, the song Bastard Self off of it amazing. Enough about Acephalix, here is Vastum:



EDIT: Vastum is scheduled for release on Dec. 13

Nice! Bandcamp tracks sound great. Always nice to hear more decent UK death metal. God knows we could do with more.

[EDIT]

In a bizarre twist this accidentally led me to another UK death metal band also called Sheol, who also have a demo out this year with the name MMXIII in the name, AND they sound pretty similar.

Yeah, I tried to look up Sheol on metal-archives and I got that band as well. Other Sheol doesn't sound too shabby. I think both Sheol's should duel to the death for their name, though one band has more members it seems. Might be an unbalanced fight Pretty weird that both bands have a promo/demo with MMXIII in it.

Maybe they should do a split too, just to confuse people even further. :3

And now for something completely different. Well, not really, it's modern melodeath, but compared to the usual recommendations here it's different.



As I said, it's modern melodeath. That, combined with the album art and tracklisting, should tell you a lot already. Fast throughout? Uber-polished? Kinda thrashy in parts? Guitars everywhere? Raspy screamy vocals? Cleans in some of the choruses? A couple of breakdown moments? Yep, you guessed it, this album has all of that. Yet somehow, in spite of how bog standard and cookie cutter that sounds, it kept my attention from start to finish, kept me entertained and never really made me want to turn it off. So I figured it might be worth suggesting here, just to see whether I really am the only one who sees potential in this.

Also, it's Japanese.

Hah. That would be rich.

Thanks, the artwork of that album is pretty awesome. The music is pretty good too, sick atmosphere.

Don't think these have been catalogued yet. Dirty Black Metal from Voidcraeft.

and Progressive Black Metal that isn't half bad either.

"Ansia" - a new, very interesting album from Mord'A'Stigmata (experimental/industrial/post/black metal from Poland):



Good stuff! Thanks for this!


This is a good one. The last 6 minutes of the song Inkaust are reeaally cool. The other tracks seem good but haven't sunk in yet I guess.

I recently was looking for bands in the vein of Baroness and harsher Intronaut and I came across Pyres' debut album "Year of Sleep". It didn't take more than one song to win me over. I've listened the album about a dozen times in a single week and still gets better with each listen. This is a genuine sludge-release with a crushing yet catchy and uplifting sound which easily holds its own waters against the aforementioned bands (though it's less experimental).



Also, they're streaming the whole album on Decibel: http://www.decibelmagazine.com/featured/streaming-pyres-year-of-sleep/ Oh man, I love the opener...

Your cousin plays in Still Remains?! Nice .

Used to jam Of Love And Lunacy a lot back then, was surprised they dropped this album since they were inactive for so long, and this might be their best album yet, though I've only given glancing listens. Plus this track features Dan from Zao which is always a nice thing.

Yup, Jordan the guitarist is my cousin. Awesome dude, one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. And yeah Of Love and Lunacy is a great album, this new one comes pretty close though in terms of quality.

Act Of Impalement. Thick death/doom. Marcel will be all over this one way or another.

EDIT: Seems these three are my age. Wish i could find people to play in a band like this.

We're in 2014 now? Well too bad, here is a late addition: Dominic "Forest" Lapointe and 2 guys from Unhuman did an instrumental album "à la" Blotted Science.
And it makes for an interesting listen.
