I miss having Sirius; Liquid Metal was a great resource for finding out about new bands. -

@ Joe.Distort
We all know you manlove for HATRED SURGE is intense and all encompasssing. It´s even more weird that i´ve heard if ORLOCK AND GENGHIS TRON!
Anyway here are some band from the local Metal scene here....
Solstafir - Post metal band.
Plastic gods - Doom/Sludge metal. Know the bass player very well. Very popular with the metal scene here
severed crotch - Probably the best death metal band in Iceland at the moment. And i also know the bass player here very well also!
Swords of chaos - screamo Hardcore punk. Seen as the local next big thing...
and last but not least Myra who are my mates band. Only do 3 shows a year, but they do a very nice line in alternative metal (i.e. - very quiet to start, builds to shattering noise) -
@joe.distort I can see what you mean after checking out all those bands. Thanks! I wasn't that aware of this "non-straight-up-metal" new genre :)
@icelandbob OH! metal from iceland... will certainly and carefully check it out. -

in that case, also check out DISCORDANCE AXIS, AGENTS OF ABHORRENCE, EXTORTION and IRON LUNG! -
-
@joe.distort just picked up Kylesas static tensions today :D
-
@icelandbob - Love the Plastic Gods track. I'm a sucker for some metal sludge. Ever check out Yob? Great local doom metal band that made it biggish before breaking up.
@joe.distort - Liked the Landmine Marathon stuff. Thanks for that. Ghengis Tron was a sweet treat too.
Anyone enjoying the newish wave of thrash metal that's been coming out?
Bands like:
Warbringer
Skeletonwitch
Evile
Municipal Waste (only really new to me) -

@Fauxhammer Liquid Metal's still kicking. I've heard of Winds of Plague for the first time through there. Unfortunately, after watching the video, I want to stab the lead singer in the head with a soldering iron.
(As mentioned in another thread,) I've been on a huge sludge fest lately. So it's been all:
Melvins
Buzzoven
Crowbar
Acid Bath
Iron Monkey
Along with assorted other bands that sort of orbit the sound, Soilent Green, Neurosis, etc. -
-
Lye By Mistake has been kicking my ass for the past couple of months. Rocking grindcore band, they sound like Mr. Bungle on crack. Check em out.
Also been listen to a lot of Taint. Rockin metal band out of Birmingham England.
Horse The Band
Holy Molar
The Locust
PsyOpus
The Blood Brothers
Theory of Ruin. One of Alex Newport of Fudge Tunnel's bands.
And War From A Harlots Mouth. Another awesome grind band.
With a little Melvins, Acid Bath, Unsane, and Trap Them. -

well if we can throw in HOLY MOLAR and THE BLOOD BROTHERS, straight up emo-violence, than my suggestions dont go TOO far astray.
NEIL PERRY
JOSHUA FIT FOR BATTLE
THE ASSISTANT
KAOSPILOT
PHOENIX BODIES
FAILURES
and if you were into that LANDMINE MARATHON stuff, they just started their tour this week up the west coast with BOOK OF BLACK EARTH. check it! they are killer. and grace loves SPARKS- you wont be disappointed hahaha. -
-
@sleestak There's very good stuff to be found on the New Wave of Thrash... love Evile from the UK and Municipal Waste from the US. Here's two more:
Ramming Speed
Evil Army -
@icelandbob Severed Crotch is Awesome! I'm trying to find where to buy their stuff but haven't got any luck yet. Thanks

@Penntor
they´ve nly realsed 2 demos at the moment, but they are due to go into the studio next month to start recording their debut album. Hang in there.... -
Kylesa's last album (Static Tensions) is one of the only "metal" albums I've bought in years. It is just great.
If we're coutning The Blood Brothers in this area (I disagree, but whatever) then I recomend An Albatross, especially Blessphmy, though Family Album has The Electric Proletariat Rides a Velvet Chariot, which is made of awesome *ahem* rawk!
Moletopopolis by Deathmøle (QC creater Jeph Jaques ficitional band) is pretty cool. Metal instrumentals about unicorns. -
