I've only really checked out the new Clutch, Hatebreed, Coheed, Riverside, KSE and BMTH albums, all of which I liked... and I've got the new Megadeth and two Queensryche albums preordered. 

Otherwise, I don't really know much from this year.

I might check out Children Of Bodom, Amon Amarth, Deep Purple, Gama Bomb and Gamma Ray albums, I'm not sure yet.

Man . . .

I am WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy behind Cry.

But . . .
I was sent a preview to this album via-my YOUtube account.


Could someone have actually made an "Original" (Prog)Metal album?
It could be said that this is a lot like the band "The Ocean", but there is something more atmospheric,
symphonic and surprisingly heavy/experimental-out of left field about this one that will ease you to
sleep, then ATTACK you awake!

A beautiful album Smile.

Yeah, it's pretty much Mastodon meets Opeth. Definitely check the whole thing. I saw them live too. They ruled.

How is that Anciients album? I heard a sample and it sounded really great. Like a more progressive version of latter day Mastodon?

I�ve been listening to the new Soilwork recently and boy is that a great album. I�m actually a bit surprised that I like it so much, but it�s just so great I can�t help myselfLOL

I just got the new Serenity, gave it one listen.

It's a good album if you like Serenity / or Kamelot-like power metal, but I don't think it's as good as their albums 'Fallen Sanctuary' or 'Death & Legacy'.

Maybe 3.5 stars at best. But that's on 1 listen...

both the new Amorphis & the new Sacred Mother Tongue get released on April 30th Smile

I just ordered both of 'em. The new Amorphis sounds like there's alot more death metal growls, from the youtube lyric videos I've listened to.

The new Sacred Mother Tongue............Andy James!!! Headbanger

^ I'm looking forward to hearing the new Summoning. The trailer sounds pretty epic.

The new Rotting Christ is a pretty awesome album. That being said my expectations were very high and a small part of me feels underwhelmed. It's definitely still one of the best I have had a chance to hear so far this year. I got the new Krypts in the mail today and holy shit is it crushing. I knew I would like it, but I wasn't so sure if it would wow me. I'm pretty blown away by it.

I got a few other 2012 releases coming. I'll wait until they arrive until I touch up on those.
