Duncan's going to make a Horns Emoticon!!!
You should have gone with, "That Meal Thread".
Actually no, that's lame.
Sabaton has become something of a guilty pleasure lately. Epic, over the top, pompous power metal. Pure fun.
Check out my concert videos on my youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/broadaccent
A new Enslaved album is always a good thing for me.
RIITIR is powerful. I'm streaming it now in advance of purchasing. Enslaved are the most consistently progressing Metal band around these days.Originally Posted by 100423

Anyone into Europe's The Final Countdown?
High of Fire are an EPIC band! And I am lucky enough to live in their Hometown!

New metal releases that are on my rotation lately are Enslaved, Between the Buried and Me, Grand Magus, Graveyard, Captain Crimson, Down, Admiral Sir Cloudesley Shovell, Gypsyhawk, Kamelot, Neurosis, Threshold, Ensiferum, Witchcraft, and The Sword, just to name a few.
I haven't picked up the new Neurosis yet, what do you think?
I just picked up the BTBAM over the weekend but have yet to spin, of the rest of your list, on my list are the Enslaved, Grand Magus, Neurosis, and The Sword.

I like it. Not a huge fan, but I can get into most of their releases. Pretty heavy in spots, creepy & atmospheric in others. It's a usual, frightening Neurosis record, totally worth checking out if you like the band.
i suppose i should get a spot on this thread since i loves me metal.
new metal i've been jamming recently is actually old stuff i never got into much and that is blut aus nord. i obtained "the work which transforms god" and also "thematic emanation of achetypical multiplicity" and lastly "father of the icy ages". so imo these guys are very good if a little overrated. i compared them to "deathspell omega" and DSO are much better imo.
You should check out Blut Aus Nord's 777 – Sect(s), 777 – The Desanctification, and
777 - Cosmosophy.
I would agree that I prefer Deathspell Omega generally too, though.
I've been delving into this as of late:

Loving the new Threshold, Maiden Utd and Katatonia. The new Kamelot is solid if uninspired. Haven't bought a lot this year - have been feeling rather jaded musically.
another band i've been re getting into is Sepultura. I have a friend who's big time into meatl but mostly gothic and dark stuff so he made me a dvd full of bands i was not familiar with so i've got lots of new things to discover. The Sepultura is killer, there is some soulfly and fields of the nephlim, tristania, a whole bunch of celtic frost was on here (8 full cd's) but i'm still jamming it and checking stuff out and making notes as to which ones i like and need to further look into.

My "metal" Is totally on the stoner/ heavy psyche side of things. See my "Stoner!" thread to see what we've been discussing for a couple of months.
