i seem to remember there being a few converge fans on here. any opinions on the new album? it's pretty great, of course. i can't believe they can put out such consistently amazing work at such a rate.

Absolutely loving it so far, probably my favourite since You Fail Me. When I heard the title track I knew it was going to be a classic, the second half of that one is immense. Along with a new album (hopefully) from Eyehategod, this could be a good year for extreme music.

have you heard the new Baroness? that's another AMAZING album.

I just downloaded it on your recommendation. I can't say I've ever heard of them before so i guess they are fairly new? I used to be really into metal/metalcore/noise but don't really know any new bands in the last couple of years.

From the first couple of tracks, I like it. They have a bit of The Melvins, a bit of Mastodon and something else, which I can't place.

*edit* a bit of Down/COC I think.
