This is just an excellent symphonic female-fronted metal album. There's a lot of good stuff on it, and if you're a fan of this particular genre, check it out. If not, well, try the recommended tracks and see if this is something you would be into.

I, personally, think this is pretty reinvigorating when it comes to the whole symphonic metal scene. These guys will be playing on a festival in Russia in 2019, and I've bought the tickets purely because of them. I'm sure it's gonna be fun.

Will this thread live to see another day? We'll see.

The problem with a thread like this is that a week is a long time, and there are loads of albums to choose from. I imagine it will be months before an album shows up that I'm interested in and can talk about. And after a while, I forget to even check because it's slipped from my mind.

I tried to take the approach of "I'll listen to every album recommended, regardless of if I think I'll like it, to try and discover something I'd never normally hear." I have missed a few but I've listened to most and tried to post. I think if I want people to check out my submissions then I need to listen to everyone else's too.

I'll try to listen to this one but I'm a little busy atm & I need to finish up stuff for puppies' roulette before I leave next week so I dunno for sure if I'll have the time

Pretty sure this is another band you sent me on that one EP though right?

[Nekov]

While I like the idea of the threat, most of the things that have been posted don't really appeal to me. I listened to Orphaned Land, Snarky Puppy, Beth Gibbons, The Sword and Kick Axe, however black metal, paramacore and growly stuff are really not my thing to be honest. As RoeDent said, sometimes there's a batch of stuff that I don't even try so it's hard to come in and participate.
It would be great if more people send stuff, that way we can get more diversity and more people can join the fun.

I really like this thread, but I just don't have the time to listen to each of these records, so I can't comment on most of them. But there are some I will most definitely listen to sometime in the future.

[The Walrus]

I'm just sad nobody listened to The Rippingtons. Will be playing catch up...

[Crow]

I did put it on my to-listen list but I'm focusing on 2018 stuff right now

[Sacul]

I'm just sad nobody listened to The Rippingtons. Will be playing catch up...

I did sample the songs Evermind shared and they weren't really up my alley, a bit too cheesy
