Here are Metal Utopia’s most anticipated albums of the week!
Leon is looking forward to Imperial Triumphant’s Spirit of Ecstasy, Panzerfaust’s The Suns of Perdition – Chapter III: The Astral Drain, and Wake’s Though Form Descent:
I’m just gonna say I saw them live the other week and I couldn’t even begin to understand what was going on musically (not to say the live sound was poor, on the contrary). This was not a bad thing. It was a very, very good thing. I’m ready for the joy of having my mind blown.
Chapter II was awesome. No reason why this won’t be awesome as well.
I remember listening to their album “Misery Rites” and thinking it was some decent grind. Later, “Devouring Ruin” came out and boy did things take a turn. You could tell it was the same band, but it was as if they decided they wanted, musically, so, so, much more. It was a superb record. Atmospheric, melodic, dissonant, and of course, unrelenting. Hope this one keeps up.
Rick is looking forward to and Moonshade’s As We Set The Skies Ablaze:
Honest-to-God melodic death metal made in Portugal; nothing’s better for clensing one’s ear after having to listen to summer hits in every single bar in town.
“The demo was better.”
Antinoë, Shores of Null, Convocation, Depravity, Decrepit Altar, Morbikon
Lamp of Murmuur, Nuclear Dudes, Storming, Ghoulhouse, Strigiform, Tempestuous Fall
