Portal ION
In the past, I've felt like Portal's murk shrouded their ridiculously bizarre instrumentation; it was easy to lump Portal in with other atmospheric-leaning death metal groups like Gorguts, Abyssal, Grave Upheaval, or Aevangelist. With "Ion", it lays the bare bones out and shows in extreme proportions how ridiculous this stuff is.

Eryn Non Dae. Meliora
Although "Meliora" doesn't possess the same sort of mystic quality that made "Hydra Lernaia" so appealing, it's still an incredible release. The chaotic and complex riffing, along with the passionate Gojira-esque vocals, alongside the mysterious and sinister ambience creates some good tunes.

Black Emperor, black metal tinges of Negura Bunget, to symphonic contemplation of Mono, these guys bring a well-rounded bunch of crushing tracks.

A fantastic collection of songs, traditional folk and contemporary interpretations alike.

While lacking a theme, "The Girl Who Couldn't Fly" is a fantastic contemporary addition to the world of British folk.

On paper, this should suck so bad. I hated their debut EP so much, and this has the same qualities: deathcore chugs, hardcore drums, okay vocals, production quality that disallows any melody, etc. But there's a quality about it that I can't quite explain...

Although akin to many other metalcore bands, it's impossible to not see the potential these guys exhibit. Their technical and songwriting capabilities are solid and the production is crisp and clean, resulting in a highly listenable record with an extremely high replay value. Although bringing nothing new to the table, these guys certainly bring a tasty and overall dependable entree.

A Faylene Sky Define Alive
Not the best or most original band out there, but the versatility of the vocalists and the crisp metallic production quality set this group slightly above mediocrity. Otherwise, they pull the same tricks as In Fear and Faith, Burden of a Day, and especially Blessthefall (this EP pretty much bleeds Blessthefall).

Tehom (SWE) The Merciless Light
Solid blackened death metal, but wears its influences on its sleeve. Ultimately, it sounds like
Behemoth's sting with Goatwhore's punch. Pretty effective, but entirely unoriginal.

A Call To Sincerity Foundations
A lot of potential here, but it unfortunately falls into generic territory when, instead of relying on the melodic that allows them an almost transcendental sound, devolution into mindless breakdowns happens. While groups like Heart In Hand or While She Sleeps fuse the heavy and the melodic to great results, A Call To Sincerity creates an awkward schism between the two. But, like I said, there is potential.
A Dream Too Late Intermission to the Moon
A Great Big World Is There Anybody Out There?
It has some pretty catchy well-written songs ("Rockstar", "Already Home", "Say Something"), but overall it's
unfocused and obsessively cheery to the point of unrealism. The highlights keep it listenable, but songs like
"You'll Be Okay", "Everyone Is Gay", and "Shorty Don't Wait" are unbearably lighthearted, especially in context
to the solemnity of hit "Say Something" or "I Don't Wanna Love Somebody Else".

I honestly expected worse. Ideally, this should embody everything terrible about music: djent-influenced
breakdown-heavy electronic deathcore with Risecore cleans. While incredibly, incredibly unoriginal, it's not as
bad as The Browning or Abandon All Ships.
