[AngraRULES]

I've discovered some very cool new music thanks to this thread!!

 

[Harvester]

Their winning streak continues. Great disc.

 

[Mardoch]

I know this kind of stuff is still relatively divisive in these parts, but this track is awesome.

Wow...I haven't paid much attention to Mercenary in quite a while. This is a terrific track.

 

[Harvester]

Wow...

 

[KingsGene]

Glenn finds some of the best GIFs.

Oh shit they put out a new song? I'm not in a place where I can listen to it right now but is this with the new singer?

Really bummed that they had to get a new singer. The old one ruled and imo was the best part about that band haha.

Sadly, no, this track's instrumental. They're due to reveal the new one at GhostFest (I think) this summer. The old guy fit their music like a glove, to be sure. So whomever the new one is it should be interesting.

Here's an interesting one. Haven't heard of these guys before today, but this grabbed my attention.

I kind of lost them on their last couple of albums, but that is a terrific song!

I'd heard/seen their name a bunch but never checked them out. There's wankery galore in that song. I'll definitely be investigating them further.

 

[General Zod]

Here's another really good band that often gets overlooked (something I've been guilty of with Dagoba too).

Dagoba - The Great Wonder

This disc has gotten many plays from me. Great gym music.

A new song from Agathodaimon who are finally putting out a new album. Their last one was out in 2009. From the album, In Darkness:

Discovered these guys separate from this thread and accidentally posted the same track. I really dug the single and checked out the rest of the disc... meh.

Awesome.

Another one from me, this time from a doom metal band out of Vancouver, Funeral Circle. The song is called Obelisk:

New tune from our friends in Hephystus from their upcoming album

Until youtube buffered it sounded great

I approached the new Amon Amarth album with skepticism, but hope. While they're essentially a one trick pony, that one trick is often very satisfying. After my first pass through the disc, I was unimpressed. None the less, I reached for it again. Each successive listen felt more rewarding, and I now find myself enjoying the whole disc. Here's one of the more instantly accessible tracks on the release:



Candlemass fans should out the track "Hel", as it features vocals by Messiah Marcolin.
