Shall we talk about heavy music?

Recommended Posts

Been listening to the new Khemmis a lot since its release last week. "Maw of Time" and "The Seer" are great tracks. These guys might have supplanted Pallbearer as my favorite doom metal band, though I suppose they're more of a "doomy" traditional metal band than a straight doom band.

Those are my favorite tracks as well. I was concerned it was going to be more metalcore after the first single, but it’s still got plenty of doom.

Probably not better than Hunted, but a really nice album.

That popped up on my Spotify a couple days ago. I think it’s pretty good but Elias’ voice is aging. Not too surprising with how he sings and how long they’ve been around. I saw them many moons ago on their first album tour and I was impressed.

I'm kinda late to the party on Obscura, but man, this song. Outro riff from 3:20-4:00 is my crack. 

This is the type of stuff I listen to and its 50/50 on whether I should really focus on practicing guitar several hours a day to eventually be even a fraction this good, or just hang it up forever and leave it to the pros.

Sounds like Trivium if Trivium didn’t suck shit.

Eh, I like playing guitar but I'm not a "guitars guy" if that makes any sense. Parents decided I needed a hobby when I was 14 and been playing ever since, but I don't collect guitars or spend any time looking at gear. 

With that said, I am building a house over the next year or so and plan to make the upstairs study basically a guitar studio, so I'll definitely be looking to fill it up with some decent stuff over the years.

This popped up on spotify while I was at the gym the other day.  Love it!.

 

It definitely has the Iowa album vibe to it. Corey Taylor described the new album as a "mature" version of Iowa and it will contain the heaviest song Slipknot has ever released. I can't wait to hear the new album.

Fuck yeah, new album out from Psycroptic. Thrashy, technical, death metal. Riffs for days.
Still on my initial listen, but track 3 (7:51) is my favorite so far.
Gonna give it a try. Wasn't a big fan of the first single. Loved their last offering, possibly their best. Will be hard to top that one, especially from what I've heard so far.

If you haven't seen them live, do yourself a favor and go to their next show when they're in town

LOL, looked up the lead singer b/c that's quite a unique voice, and it looks like his day job is as a pheasant hunting guide. Not what I would have expected:

During a lull in the hunt: "So, Dave what do you do when you're not hunting." "Oh, I'm the frontman for a moderately succesful death metal band called Jungle Rot."
