This is hardcore but it was a fun piece to write and interact with a band.

The Anatomy Of – Earth to Heaven

 

threw a little thrash in there for today's picks

Exodus - Toxic Waltz

Rva represent.

 

Hell yeah @Jon Serpent Column is sick. Double hell yeah to Demolition Hammer and @riotspray on that Exodus song. My THRASH METAL THVRSDAY selections are as follows:

Deathstorm - "Funeral Depths" - new single that came out yesterday for their album in July. Sick Austrian thrash akin to Kreator.
Ravencult - Force of Profanation - "Tormentor of Flesh" - really angry sounding Greek black/thrash.
Hellripper - Coagulating Darkness - "Annelise" - one of my favorite discoveries in the past few years. One man black/speed from the UK. More speed than thrash but that never hurt anyone.

 

Uh Misery Signals is teasing something on Instagram

Edit: short video with a date, 5/15. New song maybe??!

 

They've had an album ready since December so Im betting on an announcement!

 

A tour!!!

 

Today's three for the playlist:

Meth Leppard - Woke - Endless Prawn (Aussie grind duo that absolutely destroys)

The Ruins of Beverast - Exuvia - Maere (On a Stillbirth's Tomb) (Soundtrack to societal collapse)

Black Breath - Heavy Breathing - I Am Beyond (Because every playlist needs a mid-tempo Entombedcore romp)

 

Dirty old-school style sludge metal ala Noothgrush/Grief from British Columbia. I dig it a lot.

 

Beat me to the Black Breath rec. One of my favorite bands that basically disappeared.

 

If you like Black Breath, make sure you check out that Like Rats album.

 

Metal bands on the current Where Are You (And I'm So Sorry) status:

- Job For A Cowboy
- Black Breath
- Gyibaaw

Feel free to add others.

 

Not really metal, but getting back into cky

 

Huge high school nostalgia

 

Also, songs for the playlist:

Strapping Young Lad - City - Detox. I would go see Devin Townsend in concert specifically for this song and nothing else if I knew he'd be playing it.
Infant Annihilator - The Elysian Grandeval Galeriarch - Blasphemian. This song is just... Wow. Stupidly brutal. If you're still sleeping on this band I don't know what to tell you.
Nekrogoblikon - Stench - Prince of the Land of Stench. I had to include my favorite band at some point.

 

- Job For A Cowboy - No idea what/if Job for a Cowboy is doing anything specifically, but three of the guys from the band put out the Serpent of Gnosis album last year. Their most recent ex-drummer is also in Umbra Vitae and Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats.
- Black Breath - Their bassist passed away late last year. In their memorial post for him in January, they said they currently have no plans to record or play live. One of their guitarists plays in Theories. Another one of their ex-guitarists plays and fronts Supercrush IIRC.

 

Every time I read There's a Wocket In My Pocket! I get the urge to listen to Noothgrush.

 

Also, my daughter likes to dance to the sound of the blender, so I think she's going to be into extreme metal.

 

So much good stuff out today:

...And Oceans: Cosmic World Mother
BEAR: Propaganda
The Bloody Mallard: Realm
Cryptic Shift: Visitations From Enceladus
Forgotten Tomb: Nihilistic Estrangement
Forming the Void: Reverie
Green Carnation: Leaves of Yesteryear
The Hirsch Effekt: Kollaps
Naglfar: Cerecloth
Oathbreaker: Erase Me & 4 Interpretations
Of the Vine: Left Alone
Psijic: S/T
Sojourner: Premonitions
Toothless: Misinformed
Wastewalker: Lowborn
Winterfylleth: The Reckoning

 

Try playing her some Prurient

 

I would play YOB, and Pallbearer for my son when he was younger. They would legit put him to sleep when I rocked him. So I think he’s gonna love Sludge/doom later in life

 

Super crush is so good. I believe black breath also shared members with Shook ones too.

 

My three for today:

Electric Wizard - Dopethrone - Dopethrone (Legalize Drugs and murder)

Unexpect - In a Flesh Aquarium - Megalomaniac Trees (Genres are not necessary)

White Ward - Love Exchange Failure - No Cure for Pain (If Deafheaven listened to Bohren & Der Club of Gore)

 

Damn! I was gonna post White Ward soon lol

In honor of Mis Sigs teasing something (and me wearing my Mis Sigs shirt today coincidentally) I'm gonna lean towards metallic hardcore today. It's also a very simple history lesson.

Shai Hulud - Misanthropy Pure - "Chorus of the Dissimilar" - without this band we wouldn't have the next one...
Misery Signals - Mirrors - "Sword of Eyes" - these guys heavily influenced the last band...
Counterparts - The Difference Between Hell and Home - "Compass" - and the course of history takes us here. Listen to all three in that order.

 

Three Tracks:

BEAR: Apollo's Heist
Catharsis influenced Metal.

Strongarm: Advent of a Miracle
Metallic hardcore in the vein of @theagentcoma’s picks (I actually think these guys may have preceded Shai Hulud)

Nora: Nobody Takes Pictures of the Drummer
Sticking with the metallic hardcore theme. This album also turned 15 years old.
