That's a wild lineup. Shame its not coming near me.

 

Last time I saw Cattle Decap it was with Full of Hell. I'd go for Atheist alone tbh

 

Living in the STL area fucking sucks

 

Similar problem living in Pittsburgh...most tours will do either here or Cleveland (like for you with STL or Kansas City)...and that's if we're lucky.

 

New song from one of the NWOBHM OGs.

 

lol my cousin is jim's guitar tech on this tour and apparently people thought he was tortilla man for a while.

 

some interesting bits on this post

I’ve always thought they’re a fun little band

new Witch Vomit today

 

some good stuff today...

Portrayal of Guilt
See You Space Cowboy
Entombed A.D.
Hesitation Wounds
Redd Kross (more of a rock album, I guess)
Tool ??? (pirate it)


Here's some other metal releases from today, but I'm not familiar with these bands, but if anyone wants to point out any recs, that'd be cool.

Cliterati - Ugly Truths/Beautiful Lies (Tankcrimes)
Culted - Vespertina Synaxis: A Prayer For Union & Emptiness EP (Season Of Mist)
Elvenking - Reader Of The Runes - Divination (AFM)
Essence Of Datum - Spellcrying Machine (Season Of Mist)
Imperium Dekadenz - When We Are Forgotten (Napalm)
Necronautical - Apotheosis (Candlelight)
Sons Of Apollo - Live With The Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony DVD/CD (InsideOut)
Tarja - In The Raw (earMusic)
Tenebrae In Perpetuum - Anorexia Obscura (Debemur Morti)
Visions Of Atlantis - Wanderers (Napalm)
Wage War - Pressure (Fearless)
Warcrab - Damned In Endless Night (Transcending Obscurity)
Wizard Rifle - Wizard Rifle (Svart)

 

Wage War are good despite being your cookie cutter Rise/Fearless metalcore. I have enjoyed a few songs off of each release.

 

New Municipal Waste EP coming out in October.

 

These guys always have great articles on the epic heavy metal genre, this is from yesterday. Great read.

The Secret of Steel: A Guide to Epic Heavy Metal Pt. 1 – Introducing and Defining the Genre (Ft. An Interview with Manilla Road)

 

Witch Vomit is awesome.

Excited to check out new Ledge:

And Hope Drone:

 

And if you're into it, this Tolkien-metal release is out tomorrow:

Keys of Orthanc – A Battle In the Dark Lands of the Eye

 

They go full power metal with the solo at the end

 

Damn! Mastodon released Leviathan 15 years ago today.

 

ah, those were the days.

 

And Crack The Skye turned 10 this year too!

 

The only thing I am going to say about Tool and the new album: Danny still remains one of my favorite drummers. That is all. Carry on.

 

it's such a slog to get through

 

I'm gonna be honest with the world, I know 2 Tool songs.
