This week’s new heavy metallic releases embody danceable noise, nods to the basic eras of rock, and extra! To the metals…
Confess – Destination Addiction

Genre: Groove metallic/thrash
Origin: Tehran, Iran
Label: Self-released
Buy now on Bandcamp
Confess are a band with a hell of a backstory. The duo had been sentenced to jail for enjoying metallic in Iran and are at the moment in Norway after being granted political asylum. This is their second album since relocating to Norway and per their bandcamp that is about their 2015 arrest and fallout from that. It hits HARD. Perhaps due to the literal hits of Nile‘s George Kollias guesting on drums.
Enterprise Earth – Descent Into Madness

Genre: Deathcore
Origin: Spokane, Washington
Label: Self-released
Buy now on Bandcamp
Next up, a heavy as hell EP from these fashionable deathcore kings. Like all their music, that is intense and filled with breakdowns a moments of unease. This ought to carry you over whilst you look ahead to the following full-length.
L.S. Dunes – Violet

Genre: Post-hardcore
Origin: Chicago, Illinois
Label: Fantasy
Buy now on Bandcamp
I’m frankly shocked how prolific this band has been contemplating all their members are in energetic bands and that L.S. Dunes excursions fairly recurrently. What they’ve put out thus far has been fairly strong, and the sophomore album from them is not any totally different. The Coheed & Cambria, Circa Survive, My Chemical Romance, and Thursday supergroup continues their win streak right here.
Lunar – Tempora Mutantur

Genre: Progressive metallic
Origin: Sacramento, California
Label: Saibot Reigns Records
Buy now on Bandcamp
If you want your progressive metallic equal elements bizarre and rocking then look no additional than the newest from Lunar. There’s a bit little bit of an Opeth vibe typically, however like latest Opeth, Lunar have a love for the classics. Tempora Mutantur is a enjoyable one and an early favourite of mine on this new-ish 12 months.
The Night Flight Orchestra – Give Us The Moon

Genre: AOR
Origin: Sweden
Label: Napalm
Buy now on Bandcamp
Like Lunar, The Night Flight Orchestra love the old-fashioned. On their seventh album Sharlee D’Angelo (Arch Enemy), Bjorn Strid (Soilwork and each different band’s vox for rent), and the remaining are again after 4 years with album oriented rock earworms. There can be an air of disappointment this time as that is their first with Rasmus Ehrnborn on guitar taking on for his fallen Soilwork collaborator David Andersson.
Tayne – Love

Genre: Noise pop/industrial
Origin: London, England
Label: Inside Job/MNRK
Buy now on Bandcamp
This one caught me off guard, and I find it irresistible. Love has a sound someplace between Health, No Spill Blood, Nine Inch Nails, and Genghis Tron. You’ll dance, you may struggle, and you may cower in concern.
