That Golgothan Remains album has latched onto me. Earlier I posted the second song. This is the album opener.
I wonder if they take bookings for office parties? Portal is pretty much the end of the line in extreme music.
Taking a quick look around, clicking on links resulting in my thinking "dull. Yawn. Heard it a thousand times. Sigh. Heard it before. Hey! that's kinda good" Sweet guitar near 4:16 onward. June 15, 2018
That new Anicon, at least the first half, was really enjoyable. Not sure if it was my flagging attention span or their meandering into more atmospheric type music later in the album, but those first four tracks were monstrous. The fourth one, "Names Written in Tar," started out like a lost Borknagar track from The Olden Domain days. Exquisite. I really like this type of blended black and death metal where it doesn't just sound like Belphegor or Behemoth or what have you. It sounds really alive and organic and purposeful. They're listed on metal-archives as "black metal" only but there's definitely some other stuff lurking in their music. Some of the arrangements even remind me of latter day Gorguts, like Colored Sands. Not necessarily the riffing but the way the drums sort of lurch around underneath the jagged guitar playing then join up to explode into regular mini-crescendos. Whatever they're doing, it's working. And the very audible bass is a nice touch. Here's to more of that sort of thing.
Can't say I've ever been much of an ImpNaz fan but someone linked this bonkers '91 performance of theirs in what appears to be a post-apocalyptic high school gym and it's one of the coolest clips I've ever seen. Just pure metal essence.
I guess I'm going in. I noticed yesterday when I moved on from my Anicon post, and listen, I felt instant relief. It has to be the distressed emotions of that album. As for "some other stuff lurking in their music" you're a better musician than I. I'm not one at all. I am aware of my fuzzy, limited, signal-to noise ratio reactions to music. Funeral Mist's Hekatomb. My opinion hasn't changed that Rostén/ Arioch/ Mortuus is a 5 star vocalist in at best 3 star bands. That includes if Rostén is essentially the band. Metamorphosis at 21:28 is a prime example of the 5 star/3 star. Individual songs have not yet been broken up on youtube so the whole album link. My fav track from the album is Shedding Skin at 09:13. If I had the means I'd send him on a vacation to Iceland or goat roofed Faroe Isles to meet those various leading edge musicians and hopefully assimilate.
I'm really digging the Anagnorisis album! Thanks for posting! Metal Bandcamp: Anagnorisis - Peripeteia
I only made it 2/3rds through their new album but I must say it didn't have that individual angst, personal demons that Peripeteia had and which was what made it special. The new one seemed like plain ordinary BM. I guess I'm obligated to verify if my one take was correct.
Checking out, quite randomly, this split and only a first blush but I like it. 'Old School' but unmistakably current.
I accidentally discovered the frequencies wherewith sonic fingers' music passes through the skull to massage the brain directly. The start of this song at sufficient decibels.

I've returned to the Grá album that came out April 27. Without flipping back through the pages here I think I posted a single pre-release song. I like the not usual songs such as The Devil's Tribe at 29:44. In completely unrelated news a stunning, statuesque, Japanese or Korean super-model sashayed past Mrs Dreadnought and I at the grocery store, I blurted out "Yokohama Momma" and received an elbow for being too loud.
