I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release!

Visions of Infinihility
by Carnosus
supported by 7 fans who also own “Machina”
Hype is a funny thing. Usually when I hear everywhere "Dude this shit is 🔥" or even the dreaded and oft-used "AOTY!!" bullshit, I roll my eyes. And I rolled my eyes last year on the hype train for Carnosus. But again, for every thousandth breathless fanboy review I've seen, sometimes the album exceeds the expectation. So I will confidently tell you that, yes, "This shit is 🔥" as I wait for Willowtip to release that sweet Green Ghostly vinyl variant domestically 🤣 Finally a win for my wallet!

Moon Healer
by Job for a Cowboy
supported by 6 fans who also own “Machina”
I’m very glad I set aside my preconceived notions of Job for a Cowboy for this record. It’s technical, exciting, and passionate. The songs veer all over the place, but there’s clearly a lot of planning and control to that chaos.

Midwestern prog-metal stalwarts go for the throat on their new EP, featuring a roiling cover of the Smashing Pumpkins' “1979.”

Killer, knotty blackened prog from Norway, full of ferocity and complexity, with blistering guitar leads aplenty.

Well, *of course* people compare this to Rivers of Nihil: the guy who plays the sax for Rivers is credited for “Bass, Vocals, Saxophone” on that album. That’s how I found it xD More accessible that Rivers but really interesting nonetheless. Wow the dl features a short story in PDF.
