In which I post a final selection of Metal songs from 2011 before moving on to fresh hunting grounds. I hope, as always, you find something to like.
We shall begin with a music genre I'd never even heard of before this: UnBlack Metal
I won't lie to you. This is not easy to listen to.
Bedeiah - Blood Metal (USA)
(Christian Black Metal, basically.
Which does seem a weird concept but ...whatever)
Honour to: 182tommy182
Something a bit more traditional...and tuneful next.
Erase - Metal Force (Greece)
Honour to: Erasegreece
Band homepage here: www.myspace.com/erasegreece
Kronos - Guerreros Del Metal (Costa Rica)
(Very 80s sounding in that distinctive Spanish/ South American way -
lolloping guitars and rough-edged vocals)
Honour to; SirDeka12
Is lolloping even a word?
Metalholic - Lei Do Metal (Brazil)
(No frills Trad Metal)
Honour to: BestialAven6er
There seems to be a bit of debate as to whether this next album came out in 2011 or 2012
Youtube says 2012, Metal Archives says 2011 so I'll go with the latter.
Obsessor - Satanik Metal Overkill (Germany)
(Rough & ready Black/Thrash)
Honour to; HeavyMetalSturmtrupp
Revenge -Speed Metal To The Bone (Colombia)
(Starts slow but then accelerates to neckbreaking speed)
Honour to: TRUEMETAL826
Rocka Rollas - Metal of Steel (Sweden)
(I'm not sure if this lot are taking the piss or not. Fun though)
Honour to: speedriider
And now for something I don't think I've posted before-
Rap Metal gets a lot of flak ( most of it utterly deserved)
but you know what, I rather like this one
Stillwell - Street Metal (USA)
Honour to: StreetMetalMusic
T.I.R - Metal in My Life (Italy)
(At the risk of sounding dense - am I the only
one who thought these guys are singing in Spanish?)
Honour to: TheSteel91
And finally, just for the hell of it, here's an instrumental.
Watcher In The Sky - Dean Of Metal (Greece)
Honour to: TheDarknez1994
I think you're right about TIR. Have never heard rap metal before, but did find Stillwell tolerable. They don't seem to take themselves too seriously.
