Tombs - Path Of Totality (2011)

Image
Recently got my hands on this one after reading some great reviews . And I was quite unfamiliar with this obscure band, until now.. I would highly recommend this release to anyone that is into extreme (& rather progressive) metal. Tombs is a one of a kind band, influenced by many things. On here, you'll find Sludge, Doom, Grindcore, Post-, Black & Death Metal mixed into one apocalyptic wall of sound. Path Of Totality has to be one of the most hard hitting, original & conceptual metal releases of 2011. Get this on Vinyl if you can! myspace.com/tombsbklyn Tombs on Relapse Records.

Agnes Vein - Duality (2010)

Image
Pitch black sludge/ doom from Thessaloniki, Greece. For fans of Moss, Cough, Coffinworm, Tombs, Dragged Into Sunlight,... Influenced by the legendary Bathory & Neurosis. 'Duality' is damn good & stays interesting from the first track to the crushing outro. This is a fantastic debut, get it! *Check out Doommantia for another great review on this one. myspace.com/agnesveinband Physical needs: venerateindustries.com MP3@320Kbps Download or Download 2

Vattnet Viskar - Demo (2011)

Image
'Vattnet Viskar is an ambient black metal/doom band from southern New Hampshire. Formed as a 2-man project, a demo was released, and it quickly became obvious that there was interest in the music. Recruiting members to fill out the band, the sound evolved into what it is today. With influences ranging from Neurosis to Gorgoroth, it is hard to classify the sound, although the band describes themselves as “the east coast answer to pacific black metal”. Already sharing the stage with Shai Hulud, Woods of Ypres, and Black Anvil, it is clear there are big things in store for this band.' - last.fm Like it says in the bio; from Neurosis to Gorgoroth. Although this is more black & ambient (Wolves in the Throne Room comes to mind). Not my 'usual' genre but a good listen nonetheless.

Coffinworm - When All Became None (2010)

Image
'Blackened' sludge/doom from Indianapolis, Indiana. Recently got into this band, and this is one hell of a record. It mixes elements of death & black metal into one filthy sludge pool. A crushing & nihilistic wall of sound. This is the band's debut full-length, released on Profound Lore Records .
