Released without warning, does this guy think he is Krallice? Nevermind, it's even better, it's a perfect mix between BAN's best industrial and raw BM releases.

Cool, forgot about this. Pretty sure it's a 2018 release though, the 2019 version is the physical release.

One of the best things I've heard this year. Will just quote myself:

If Virus were an art rock band, this is what they would probably sound like. Compositionally spacious, dark and bleak, it weaves together angular avant-garde metal, indicative of the known greats, with moments of noise rock discord, far-distant brass and quieter, eerie bass-driven lulls. Overseeing all this are near-serene female vocals that are mostly ever so slightly off-kilter, but inviting all the same. Something for the discerning listener




Some solid and rather big atmospheric hardcore (or post-metal if you like) coming out of France.




And Neoandertals are back! Crazy weird neanderthal death metal. The available song sounds a bit more grounded than their usual stuff but I suspect the rest of the album will dial it up.




Some interesting sounding Himalayan / southern asian-themed experimental drone. Haven't listened to much of it yet.

Neoandertals

Nice and primitive.

Maybe you think that because two songs were already uploaded on Bandcamp last year, but the two remaining songs were uploaded yesterday and Marcos announced the official release on his social networks.

Guess MA is as unreliable as ever then

Can't wait to listen to the new Neoandertals in full. Ebu Gogo Gutting The Child is an experimental death masterpiece.

Sentient Ruin getting even more down and dirty. Another gut wrenchingly heavy and bestial sludge album with a good dose of electronics and noise.

This was self -released 2018 but they changed it when SR picked it up so now its 2019. I listened a bit to it when it was streaming in full then and it was very thick and filthy, sounded good so I look forward to the label release.

Nice second wave black metal thing on Iron Bonehead productions.

I liked these Comma guys more than I thought I would, really fun album.

New Triumvir Foul does its job. Not sure if its a full length or EP. Haven't checked their fb page.

EDIT: Looks like its an EP.

^ when you gotta go you gotta go.

Hugely fun southern tinged mix of hard rock, trad doom and heavy metal.



Full thing here.

Black metal coming from Iron Bonehead next year. Digging that art.

Cénotaphe

Now fully listenable here.

Some cool stuff on here! Thanks!

Little bit of tab clearing again.

Anthemic, melodic blackened crust with some folk influences. They write long songs too, and surprisingly not bad for that weird genre descriptor.




Rather fine sounding black coming soon from Quebec.




Pleasingly chunky, often rhythmic death.




Fucking angry "emoviolence." I don't know what that is but it's some sort of very heavy sludge / core type thing. Actually really good though despite the length.




This is getting a fair amount of ratings on RYM. Somewhat dissonant, aggressive black metal. I don't find it all that amazing but others might.




If you like your blackened death doom espcially gritty and grim then this might be for you.




And some pretty sweet sounding heavy metal ala old-school.

Obnoxiously heavy metallic hardcore from Australia. Debut full length from these guys.

A few more I stumbled upon while doing my daily Bandcamp search.
[...]

[...]

Thanks for the recommendation of Mistveil! Their doom/death is right up my alley and I just ordered a physical copy of Amnesia.
Shit, I really love that voice...

The first release of Russian prog metal band Casamatta. To the fans of Mastodon, Baroness and some old school like Megadeth.

Some punky thrash with actual testicles for once.




Low-key but intense drone not unlike Tenhornedbeast. Creepy as fuck and I bet is amazing with headphones. Looks like a 2018 release but I don't care. [EDIT] actually this version seems to be longer than the 2018 release.




Somewhat challenging black / doom. Is far more higher frequency than doom usually is, so feels like slowed down black metal in a way.




Very nice prog stoner sludge.




Sick music with sick art (extra big because look at it).

Just French people being weird. Avant jazz with death metal vocals, and some other things. Sounds really promising.

-Core attaxx!!

Absolutely hecking exquisite post / prog metal with an underlying -core element. I've not heard something quite like this before. Somewhat abstract, with a focus on instrumental textures, it becomes a shapeless form of percussion and sound, whilst still just about holding on to that metalcore vibe. These guys are the real deal. Just when you think the albums gets a little too chill, it ramps it up into some off-kilter -core stuff (especially on "K") and kills it even more.




New album-length EP from Five The Hierophant. Bizarre, riualistic jazz and dark ambient experimentation.




Other nuggets:

Pretty nice, raw space black metal.



Solid blackgaze, with nice art.

New L'Acéphale, first track - semi raw black metal with some folky ambient parts

As if the new Neoandertals wasn't enough, another maddening display of extreme death metal is oncoming in the form of new Encenathrakh.

Funereal Presence got a new song out (Negative Plane member's band). Sounds rougher than the amazing debut but still rife with delicious, swirling, heavy metal-laden blackened deliciousness.

Rather good Chilean prog / tech-death that focuses on a moody atmosphere instead of spazzy instrumentation.




Enon Chapel, some kind of massively ballsy sounding punk, maybe thrashy, black metal. Oomph.
