    I'm loving the latest Archspire album. I'm not usually a big tech death listener, but every time I listen I have a big grin on my face. Opening track:

    ^ Cool. That drummer really needs to work on his blastbeats...that was kind of weak.

    Albums spun recently:

    Agalloch - The Mantle (really starting to dig this...growing on me. Killer atmosphere)
    Bathory - Under The Sign of The Black Mark (classic! Pioneering 1st wave Norwegian black metal)
    Burzum - Belus (1st album from Varg affter prison. Pretty great and the production is much better than the classic 90's albums)
    Death - Human (Just unbelievable playing and writing. Masterpiece metal imo. Sean Reinert needs to be mentioned as one of the greatest drummers of all time based on this album alone))
    Furia - 1) Ksiezyc Milcszy Luty -and- 2) Marzannie, Krolowej Polski (Superb Polish band; really hard to describe but all over the map. Highly recommend both albums)
    Bell Witch - Longing (Excellent doom)
    Cannibal Corpse - Violence Unimagined (we already discussed this above. Gorgeous love songs)

    Yeah, its a metal binge. Loving it and the only other shit I want to listen to right now are Cardiacs (duh) and Sibelius
    If it isn't Krautrock, it's krap.

    I enjoyed Burzum and especially Agalloch musically, but ultimately found some of the personal drama too distasteful to continue enjoying them. It happens.

    Bell Witch is great, and excellent live if you can see them

    Frankie, I've ranted about them before but it's been back in heavy rotation of late...if you haven't checked this out yet, PLEASE DO. Amazing, insane "everything and the kitchen sink" band. Was my favorite "progressive" album of that year.

    Seeing the Bathory and Burzum listings reminded me that I had a recent binge of Dayal Patterson's books on the history of Black Metal. More info here.

    Bell Witch and Agalloch are essentials, Death is foundational and Furia is new to me, thanks!!

    I'll second Batts' Oranssi Pazuzu recommendation. Their discography is top notch.

    Canvas Solaris has a recent release that I have yet to spin. If you haven't already listened to Thy Catafalque, highly recommended. Does include some choral and chanting, but no lyrical vox as best as I can recall. Posting this reminded me I hadn't picked up the latest, so I had to buy both the CD and T-Shirt.

    You'll be switching to Canterbury come the new year along with a bunch of us, so enjoy your metal binge over the holidays!

    I'm sure they've been talked about here, but I've only looked at this last page , but I'm enjoying the snot out of the new Gojira and Mastodon albums. Also the latest from Green Lung is kickass if you're into Ozzy Sabbath and autumn folky metal...

    Oh Duncan, you're in for a treat Oranssi are pretty amazing.

    Those who really love that sound might also dig the collab they did with Dark Buddha Rising with the spectacular name Waste of Space Orchestra

    Also, they've got members in common with Kairon; IRSE

    Furia seems to have roots in black metal, but they are way more stylistically diverse than yer average black/white corpse painted BM bands. Some nice dynamics too, all in a very organic sound with a real "live" band feel and sound. Apparently they are fairly big in Poland.

    This is pretty cool and very different than what I was expecting.

    Any chance there is a CD release of this one?
    Please don't ask questions, just use google.

    Never let good music get in the way of making a profit.

    Screw it...taking a deep dive into the past for this one

    3rd and the Mortal are literally the reason I got into metal. So much of what I'd heard prior was thrash or hair metal shared by school friends and it did little for me. But a friend loaned me Painting on Glass and it blew my world apart. Dark female vocals, burned out groove with tuned down drums, and...a trombone solo? What the hell? Overnight, anything felt possible and the more I explored, the more I found to love in so many of the different subgenres. And then of course, maudlin of the Well recalibrated my ears to vocal growls and....sky's the limit!

    Painting remains a top desert island disc of all time. Arguably the follow up In this Room was even better, more progressive and more fearless, but I'll always have a huge fondness for Painting in my collection





    Bonus link...suffice to say Anne Marie's vocals on this one are, errr, divisive I think it's bold and adventurous and wonderfully weird, like a RIO vocalist jamming with mid-70's King Crimson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVJETCvl11s

    I loved The 3rd And The Mortal from the first time I heard them. I have Tears Laid In Earth, Painting On Glass, Memoirs, and EPs And Rarities. Somehow I am missing only In This Room. Haven't listened to the band in a while. Thanks for the reminder. I'll play some soon. For now, I'll play the videos you posted.

    I think I have the whole 3rd And The Mortal catalog - need to spin them again.

    Not that it matters - but they're not metal, IMHO.

    Then they have no place in this thread! As OP I officially banish them from these pages. So say we all.
