Heavy Metal

Wow, this is really good!
This thread delivers solid reccomendations once again.

Never expected to post anything from NutritionFacts in the metal thread

I do love me some thrash metal

Gama Bomb - Thunder over London
https://youtu.be/XUuSM_2aSbk

Just seen Katatonia and Solstafir are touring together, pretty tempting combo

Interesting project with now mostly Berlin based Elder and Kadaver combining musical talents.

Elder is probably my all time favourite band, can't wait for this to be out, love the singles so far. Different, but awesome.

Oh, and the slugs are back at it again. This band is utterly fantastic.

More fun exploration on Bandcamp leading me to this

The mass legalisation of weed in North America is resulting in some pretty amazing music.

^probably a good shout for folks that like Unto Others

Yeah that Worm release is great. Takes a lot for things on the doomier side of death to keep my attention, but love that one.

Do enjoy a bit of Idle Hands / Unto Others so will give that a spin, cheers!

Vocals definitely seem to be a bit hit or miss in places, but good fun riffing otherwise.

My favourite records from this year, in no particular order:
