Scuro's 1/4 2017

Year has been pretty good so far. Still a lot I've heard a few times but am undecided on, and plently more I haven't gotten around to yet. Looking forward to jamming new Mastodon soon too m/
1Ungfell
Tôtbringære


4.5 - folky black metal - Favourite of the year so far, love this earth style of bm and the production suits it perfectly.
2Fortress of Mystery
La Rose de Fer


4.0 - dungeon synth/ambient - check my review for a better explanation, unsettling, disharmonic stuff
3Dzo-nga
Upon the Shimmered Bough


4.0 - atmospheric black metal - awesome atmospheric bm with some Paysage-esque snowstorms at times, and some really cool softer moments to counter them.
4Steel Panther
Lower the Bar


3.5 - glam/metal - they're back, some top quality jams here when they get it right. Not their best but still a solid album.
5Sinmara / Misthyrming
Split


3.5 - black metal - two of icelands finest BM bands on a split, too short though
6Sepultura
Machine Messiah


3.5 - groove/thrash metal - this actually rules, been a while since that described a Sep album
7Skaphe
Untitled


3.5 - black metal - dissonant black metal goodness
8Eldamar / Dreams of Nature
Split


3.5 - atmospheric black metal - really nice, soft stuff, very relaxing and immersive
9Bond (BR)
Ascension Path


3.5 - dungeon synth - just some neat dungeon synth
10Escape from the ZOO
Killacopter


3.5 - folk/punk - check this out guys, really interesting mix of folk melodies and instrumentation put to a punk rock format
11Moongates Guardian
Let Horse Be Bridled, Horn Be Sounded!


3.5 - atmospheric black metal - LOTR inspired atmospheric black metal, now that's not the most original idea ever but these guys interject sound effects, spoken word segments and a whole bunch of other nifty ideas into their sound. The actual black metal parts aren't so impressive, but the more atmospheric material is very well done.
12Code Orange
Forever


2.7-3.0 - hardcore - Eh, it goes
13Suicide Silence
Suicide Silence


1.5 - nu-metal/metalcore - trash, so damn boring, uninspired, and derivative
