Spazz - Crush, Kill, Destroy

After a weekend of going through a ton of PV recommendations (thank you Grindcore help thread) I seem to have saved the best for last.

I'm... I'm... :love:

Just tried baroness's blue album. I wasn't impressed. The vocals didn't impress me, and they just come off as shouts. Some of the guitar work was cool, and it was a pretty fun album, except just felt like background music. I can't see myself listening to it again any time soon.

Cryptopsy - Phobophile, off None So Vile

Ah, such a classic. You know, I have a particular love for early Cryptopsy's leads. That strange sort of "Malmsteen soloing in Slayer" vibe is so unique..... Wish more bands tried something similar.

Vital Remains-Icons of Evil

Was just looking at some reviews for this. Seems to get a lot of hate. I personally think its solid.

Danzig - Twist of Cain

Awesome opener. Catchy chorus and a great classic metal riff.

Acolytes of Moros - I Suffer in Silence

Very bleak doom - give this band a few years and they'll concoct an awesome full-length, EP, or additional demos, I reckon.

Defeated Sanity - Frenzy

This is no doubt staying in my top 2 for 2013 all year.

Helker - Angel, off A.D.N.

A tender ballad about losing one's own child. A father and a mother, both uselessly shouting to an unexistent God "Why?". Powerful stuff, for sure.

Barghest - Shifting Sands

Outstanding black metal from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I got a chance to catch their live set Friday night at a local death metal gig here in Austin, and they were captivating to say the least. A perfect blend of filthy, aggressive black metal with sweeping consonant and dissonant passages throughout. In a way, they remind me of Kvist. So I bought their vinyl split with False, and both Barghest tracks sound just as good live. Highly recommended.

Fozzy - Dark Passenger

Pretty solid melodic rock/metal, with a heavy as FUCK guitar tone and some surprisingly good vocals...nice. Nothing amazing but good.

Pretty Girls Make Graves - Good Health

I knew a band named after a Smiths song couldn't be bad. And now, for the seventh time today...

Anubis Gate - Hold Back Tomorrow

Originally I was craving some Danzig, but I don't have any on my iPhone, so I'm listening to this since I haven't in awhile. Are Anubis Gate writing another album? I can't remember.
