Metal!

Nice to see some life here!! I wanted to mention that I really do want to like Thou and I know it's sacrilege, but they never did much for me.

Here are a few I've loved this year but many more to discover:

Spectral Voice - Sparagmos
Darkthrone - It Beckons Us All
Pallbearer - Mind Burns Alive
Sumac - The Healer
Crypt Sermon - The Stygian Rose

I need to give the Sumac and Spectral Voice another listen. I did a background listen of each but haven't gone back yet. Agree on the others being tops for the year so far.

I’ll see if I can get some traction on this list tonight.

I did listen to SUMAC the other day and it didn’t really do anything for me.

The new Thou is still in my rotation.
The Promise, & I Feel Nothing When You Cry, for me, are the standouts.

For the first few listens, when Panic Stricken would play I thought I added Alice in Chains to the playlist - until the vocals kicked in.
 
I perused this Brooklyn Vegan list yesterday:

...and added a few things from it to my queue.

I'm only 3 songs into this one and LOVING it!!



To quote Revolver‘s Gregory Adams: At its most extreme, the labyrinthian heaviness of Civerous’ Maze Envy rolls out as a quixotic minefield of quasi-heretic riffery, jarring extend-o blasts and dark-and-stormy gloomscaping. But while the twists and turns on the Los Angeles group’s sophomore album ramps up the technicality from 2021’s Decrepit Flesh Relic — and features a co-sign guest vocal from Derek Rydquist, formerly of the Faceless —it’s just as easy to get lost in the more spaciously-paced epics of their mega-melancholy, death-doom abyss.
