I finally got around to listening to the new Pissgrave, and it's perfectly brutal, death-grind. Plus, arguably the best album title for the genre so far this year. #deathmetal #metalsky

If you're looking for some massively heavy sludge metal, the new Swamphead record is really well produced, brutally slow, and wonderfully doomy. \m/ #doom #sludge #metalsky swamphead.bandcamp.com/album/nightf...

These guys are so brutal the 3rd track on the album made audibly chuckle. Of course, they're from Montreal. I'm not convinced we can make doomy death metal this brutal in the US. LOVE IT! darkdescentrecords.bandcamp.com/album/foreor...

The new Spectral Voice album showed up today on creepy ultra-clear marble vinyl and it's fantastic. Easily one of the best death metal bands out there today. Excellent work ya maniacs. darkdescentrecords.bandcamp.com/album/sparag...

There's been a ton of buzz about this band but I dodged it when I saw they were calling themselves "antique black metal" it sure seemed too precious for a scuzzy lo-fi gore fiend like me. Gotta say, I'm pleasantly surprised. departurechandelier.bandcamp.com/album/satan-...
