Cult of Luna - A Dawn to Fear

Camel - Dust and Dreams

Quite a revelation. Dated sounds, but a really engrossing listen nonetheless. Andy Latimer is one of the great unsung guitarists in rock history.

So if you really liked Crack The Skye and are sad Mastodon never really made anything else like that, well, here you go.

Stuff I played over the weekend that came out last week, in reverse order

1. Serious Black - Suite 226 (sucks)
2. Dan Deacon - Mystic Familiar (interesting since I'm familiar with the name, but, not sure I'll go back to this - thick, busy electronic sound, though)
3. Mobius - Kalas (djenty prog with Indian musical flavor. awesome stuff)
4. Big Scenic Nowhere - Vision Beyond Horizon (huge Sabbath worship here. interesting sound, good tunes, but not blowing me away)
5. Thematic - Skyrunner (big fun epic prog rock/metal with nice clean vocals and only a very few rough/harsh vocals. I hear tons of modern bands in this group, really hard to describe, need to hear it, I recommend it)
6. Invictus - Eden (instrumentally solid heavy metal. vocals ruin it though. not one great song on it)
7. ShadowQuest - Gallows of Eden (has a few awesome major key double bas drumming Helloween-style power metal songs - the rest are forgettable)
8. Lil Wayne - Funeral (uhh actually has a few songs I like, miraculously, but... yeah not gonna revisit most of it)
9. Dustbowl Revival - Is It You, Is It Me (WOW, best album of the lot in my opinion, was not expecting to enjoy this country-ish, Americana, roots-y, bluegrass-tinged, soul-and-pop-inspired record. my only complaint is the super political gun violence song, other than that, spectacular)
10. Monolithe - Okta Khora (doomy metal feat. saxophones. a couple filler tracks imo but mostly awesome)
11. Serenity - The Last Knight (standard prog-power metal, slightly better than most of what I've heard this year but still nothing to write home about)
12. Deathwhite - Grave Image (heavier Katatonia with more energy, me gusta mucho)

Still have 7 more to check out

Hey, you never know, but still, even if I enjoy one or two tracks it's still a win in my book.

These were the 3 on your list that I sampled on Friday, only a couple songs from each.

Yes, the Serious Black was serious suckage.

The Serenity was as expected. It didn't suck, but not a priority to get back it.

The Thematic sounded very interesting so I Saved it on Spotify and I expect to get through it, likely tonight. Working through the new Thoughts Factory today.

Didn't know Serious Black were still a thing. They really had no answer to the excellent debut at all.

The new album sucks imo. I was hoping to get at least one rip-roaring belter like Akhenaton or I Seek No Other Life (the only 2 songs I know, to be honest, but they kick major ass), but there's nothing even close to that here. Snoozeville

Checked this out over the weekend and recommended it to Chad as well. I really dig this. It's one of the better records I've heard so far this year. Loads of interesting moments on there.
