Straight from the alpha quadrant! The menace from terra TEROK NOR with their self-titled debut ep! Sick riffs, sick beats and sick, ugly screams. Ravaging death thrash for warp speed maniacs.

I no joke hate most metal that I can understand. I only really got into the hard stuff when I had to have loud music to shut out noise at work. Lyrics gently caress all that up.

I've heard all of Victorius' albums and they started off as a very solid power metal band but recently are leaning way too far into the lolsorandumb 80s throwback shtick at the cost of their songwriting.

Great Value Gloryhammer isn’t that bad tbh. The lyrics suffer but I could set a primo 80’s arm wrestling tournament montage to this.

I'm all for dumb PM cheese, but this Victorius tune is just pretty lame. It's like "goofy power metal by committee". Some generic gimmick with no creative chops to back it up.

And now, to defende the honoure of this stupid subgenre that originally got me into this whole "Metal" thing to begin with, I shall post a reminder that it can also be good and classy and tasteful (y'know, relatively speaking):

Well yeah, most current power metal bands are going to fall short when you're comparing them to the last two Wuthering Heights' albums.

One of the better newer power metal bands imo, Dark Forest. Cheesy as per the genre but their songs are way more interesting than the Gloryhammer "look at us, isn't power metal wacky and dumb wink wink" style or sub-Kamelot pastiche.

You and me both, I've been hoping for a new album forever. Salt is one of my all time favourites and The Shadow Cabinet isn't far behind.

The main guy behind the band has been doing reissues of their albums, but for whatever goddamn reason you can only get them through his own private label, physically. None of their stuff is on Spotify or Bandcamp. I don't know if Ravn is some kinda digital-hater or if it's about some contract fuckery or what.

Yeah they're good, I really enjoyed Oak, Ash & Thorn a lot.


EDIT: Also I wanna give my periodic shoutout to Keldian, who are still perhaps my favourite of all the bands I've discovered thanks to this thread.
