Playlist of New Songs Quick playlist highlights: – Kingdom of Giants finally has new music! ‘Passenger’ was a massive album in 2020 that I still go back to, but after four years, I was starting to worry that they were taking too much time out of the spotlight. It looks Read more…
Quick playlist highlights: – Starting the playlist off on a heavier note for once, Gaerea continues to impress. Their last two singles have been slightly more accessible than their 2022 album (which came in at #14 on my end of the year list). I’ve been less interested in extreme metal Read more…
Quick playlist highlights: – Miss May I is re-recording ‘Apologies Are For The Weak’ to celebrate its 15th anniversary. It looks like each re-recorded song is going to feature a guest vocalist – the bands on the list include August Burns Red, Currents, After The Burial, Silent Planet, and a Read more…
Quick playlist highlights: – In Hearts Wake released another surprisingly heavy tune. Their new album is set to release on July 12 and I’m pretty excited. It’s supposed to be the “dark” version of their 2012 debut album, ‘Divination,’ which is widely regarded as their best release. – Left To Read more…
Quick playlist highlights: – John Robert C. (previous vocalist of The Last Ten Seconds of Life) is killing it in Crystal Lake. Ryo Kinoshita was a monster, but John is incredibly talented himself.

Quick playlist highlights: – Get The Shot is outrageously fun. They placed #11 on my 2022 album of the year list. The vocalist has a unique sound and the samples they use in this song are great. LIGHT WEIGHT BABY!!! – I randomly came across this God Program EP from Read more…
Quick playlist highlights: – Kicking the playlist off with this insane track from Synestia and Disembodied Tyrant‘s split EP. The breakdown at the end of this song is ridiculous. – Falling In Reverse has a new single that features Alex Terrible (from Slaughter To Prevail) and TechN9ne. Everybody loves to Read more…
Quick playlist highlights: – Rivers of Nihil parted ways with their longtime vocalist and now have their bassist filling the gap. Their 2018 album is still an absolute favorite of mine, but I was less impressed with their 2021 release. The bassist is doing a pretty good job, and I Read more…
Quick playlist highlights: – Born of Osiris continues to embrace a more upbeat, cheery identity. I’m pretty into it. – Knocked Loose featured Poppy on their new single. I think I missed the boat on her – I don’t really get the appeal and her screams don’t sound good live, Read more…
