I really like this disc but I hope these guys are trying to create a funny flashback to the '80s with their band photo and that is not what is in style in the metal scene in Florance, Italy right now.

I have been into this band since 2011 or so and I really liked their 2010 album as I thought it sounded very aggressive at the time and in June, I picked this one up and then neglected to listen to it until last week. I am glad that I finally did because I like this one too, their sound really hasn't changed much at all in 11 years.

Pretty good effort from this obscure and defunct band from Oak Ridge, Tennessee especially considering this is a reissue of their 1996 demo. It's funny I definitely don't think of death metal when I hear Oak Ridge, Tennessee but these guys are representin'.

Here is another band that is new to me, the album art is what caught my attention and I assumed this would be death metal based on the visual concept but this trio is playing old-school styled thrash and I am liking their take on the genre.

Battlegrave is primarily a 2-man project with some guest musicians in the studio and they play a pretty heavy brand of thrash with some death metal undertones and I like it. Hear for yourself and decide.

When I saw the band name and album art I was expecting something quite different from this but I may like this more than what I was expecting. I am not saying this is a great album but I think these dudes from Indy have some potential to get better.

I remember watching the video above early in the year when it first came out and thinking that this was going to be a very good disc and then I didn't even listen to the album for several months. Well, ever since I took the time to listen to this I have been liking it more and more. These guys are tagged as brutal death metal and I don't necessarily agree with that genre tag but either way, this is highly recommended \m/\m/

It is probably recency bias on my part, but could this be one of the year's best albums? It is in the discussion for me. This is a killer band that has 2 members from Spain and one from Germany, which explains the confusion on my part about where they are from. They are from both but metal-archives only gives Germany credit for their place of origin. They have a killer EP from 2017 as well.

These guys had a nice EP back in '20 and this disc shows a nice progression in their brand of atmospheric prog-death. I really enjoy the bass playing on this album and the other performances are very good as well.
