After a month of concentrated doses of Borknagar, now spending some time with Ego Fall. A nice mix of Mongolian, Turkic, Chinese vibes and non-cheese metalcore.

The last album was really good, somehow i didnt expect that from them anymore, listened to it a lot for a while.

Right! I've been a fan of Borknagar since day 1 and own all their albums, but I have to admit that their releases often come with sub par tracks sprinkled in between stellar ones, and as a result albums as a whole aren't always very engaging. Winter Thrice, on the other hand, is Borknagar perfected. I am really impressed that they could pull that off this far into their careers. One of my favorite releases in recent memory.

I do like the one after The Dreadful Hours called Songs Of Darkness Words Of Light. After that one it went downhill fast

Listening to The Unguided the last few days

Modern Day Outlaw - Movin' On Some Western Metal :P

This is a new band and I like their 90's inspired metal:

PALADINE - Paladine

And the Dragonlance readers among us might recognize the name, as the whole album is inspired by the novels :D

That was revolting.
