apparently Prurient plays synth on this album which even though I like the guy I have a hard time imagining to be a hugely necessary teamup

Dawn Ray'd alb is good black metal w/ violin. though sometimes the moments where it appear seem tacked on rather than organic

Dawn Ray'd disappointed me because I'm ready for some angry lefty bm but it didn't grab me much.

what do you non-journalists use to keep up with upcoming metal releases? I used Lambgoat's release calendar for the longest time, but something is seriously fucked with it lately. it didn't have the Cannibal Corpse release date, it didn't have In Flames, didn't have Taake, didn't have Exhumed....

I follow this guy/organization on Bandcamp, and find him/they add/buy/review a thorough enough chunk of new releases to stay on top of things enough (at least as a non-cvlt outside observer) :https://bandcamp.com/metalbandcamp

I regularly read Invisible Oranges and No Clean Singing, the latter is a bit uncritical and hyperbolic about some fairly ordinary stuff but both are good for finding new releases.

Technically 2018 but Portal have a new song out:
https://profoundlorerecords.bandcamp.com/album/ion
It sounds like Portal!

amazing
― Simon H., Saturday, 25 November 2017 16:50 (six years ago) link
it certainly sounds like portal
― imago, Saturday, 25 November 2017 17:16 (six years ago) link
i wish my reaction to portal was stronger than 'this is impressive i guess'
bet they're incredible live mind
Yup. Very cool live.

That song didn't blow me away but I'm about ready for something new from them.
Also I've been listening to this, slightly weird black/death w/fretless bass and impressive drumming. I almost gave it a miss because of the crappy band name but it's good:

The Elevenfold Vibration: jaw -> floor
guys. guys, you all need to hear this. metal album of the year (for a week at least)

Yeah I like it a lot more than I came across, I'm not great a hype man. I'm really glad all this great avant-metal stuff's coming up at the end of the year but Cleric I reckon will top them all. And yes lol Colin Marston is E V E R Y W H E R E

@Brad any good metalcore-y stuff this year? I wasn't that struck by this year's August Burns Red, though I am enjoying this Ghost Key album I discovered completely by accident while looking for something else

to belatedly answer my own question, the best metalcorey thing I've heard this year (non-Converge division) is the Code Orange record, which was an impressive step forward

ok the combo of rutan production + azagthoth writing extremely nasty oblong gateways-esque riffs = i think the new morbid angel is going to be worth spending a lot of time with

In addition to the actual new Morbid Angel album, there's something on Spotify called Complete Acid Terror, which I think might be demos or something - it's seven instrumentals with a drum machine.

The AI Krallice thing is maddening because I recognise all the elements but it doesn't go in the direction I'm used to. Apart from that well done computer? It still manages to be less weird and robotic than Glyptoglossio!
