Metal 2014

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Yea the Ghost Brigade record is nice. I'm listening to Until Fear No Longer Defines us right now though.

 

[SweptbackFlame]

This song is fucking badass and that solo fuck....

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Yea thanks for that. I like it but all that symphonic stuff I could do without. They could/do create awesome melodies with just the guitars...

 

[EspaDa]

Pretty good track, but it's not better than their lead song off ..And Death Said Live. Departure sounds badass as hell.

WHAT YEAR IS IT

I knew nothing about this, thank you for the heads up! Stoked!

 

[ProphetofHatred]

This song is closer to old Pink Floyd

 

[The Ozzman]

The new Obituary is good. Better than the last few records.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Really? I hate the production, It sounds hollow and weak. I can't fuckin stand when the bass drum sounds like a popcorn machine.

 

[Luoto]

I love how this band came from absolutely nowhere and almost released the best album of the year. Amazing debut record.

 

[The Ozzman]

Who?

 

[Eligos]

I can appreciate that they're going for the Atlas Moth sound, but by no means do they surpass that band. Hardly album of the year.

Thanks for mentioning Atlas Moth, might check them out in that case. I'm not going to expect a clone or anything though, because Skein are older of the two

 

[Krow]

How can Skein be older than Atlas Moth if they debuted this year? Atlas Moth is 7 years old...

Edit: okay fine, theyre a phantom band that supposedly existed for 8 years before releasing anything.

 

[Luoto]

Three EPs since 2005 is nothing phantom. I understand the confusion though, it was beyond me too how a Finnish metal band could go so under the radar for about half a decade. They caught my attention when I saw them live a couple of months ago.

Atlas Moth are pretty cool too, but sound nothing alike as I suspected (more melodic and less... Scandinavian).

 

[tagradh]

That song was boring.

Maybe that's why no one noticed them. Also sounds like it should have been released about a decade ago when 'alternative metal' was still hip and trendy.

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

How's the new Primordial? I don't like them at all, but was surprised to see some early negative reviews. Usually they're fellated in the metal press.

 

[Krow]

I bought it, still have a week until it arrives. Im pretty well a fan boy though.

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

New Nightingale has a lot going for it. It's getting better and better with every listen. Swano sounds like a god.
