Body Count - Carnivore
At the ripe old age of 62, Mr Tracy (Ice T) Marrow is still releasing new music which packs a punch. Angrier than ever and with a lot to say regarding social politics and racial in-fighting, Body Count are more relevant and important than ever in 2020! They are also heavier, which is nice.
My Dying Bride - The Ghost of Orion
Hailing from the home of misery (apparently), Halifax, My Dying Bride were, along with fellow Yorkshiremen, Paradise Lost and Liverpool's, Anathema, early pioneers of the Death / Doom Metal sound. The band's new album, their 14th full length, finds them at full strength. I can honestly say the MDB have never sounded better...or more despairing. Perfect!
Crematory - Unbroken
You could be (quite rightly) forgiven for assuming that a band which decides on the name Crematory are going to opt for a Brutal Death Metal approach, however, they are actually purveyors of a stomping blend of Industrial and Symphonic Metal. If you've not heard then before, Unbroken isn't the best place to start, but hey, this is a new release blog. This, the titular track, isn't the best song on the album, but it is a good representation of the band's sound. Okay, so the lyrics are a little cringe-worthy, but as the band has English as a second language, I'll give them some slack. Recommended for fans of Pain and Deathstars.
