Melbourne progressive metal band NE OBLIVISCARIS has to be one of my favourite acts. Like top five - their albums are among my very favourite.

They craft soaring and epic pieces of melodic/progressive metal.

They've just released a new single for their much anticipated new album "EXUL".

The interplay between the clean and harsh vocal stylings are amazing.

The incorporation of string instruments and classic metal tropes of chunky riffs and double kick drums create some beautiful and brutal moments.

This is the kind of music that is best enjoyed in a single sitting: find a place to relax, put on your headphones and immerse yourself in the sonic landscape this Aussie metal band creates.

I've been waiting YEARS for this, and from what I can see this won't disappoint.

The Latin in their name translates to "The moment before I forgot".

And so we say farewell to 2022 from the Viperthrone crew.

Many thanks to every #band we've played alongside, everyone that bought a piece of smerch from us and everyone who told us "great set!".

So I'm thinking about moving more and more towards content on Mastodon of a specific kind.

While I love a wide variety of topics, music is a big part of my life and a passion of mine.

So I'm thinking of focussing on sharing and creating content related to heavy/punk/alt genres. Also a heavy dose of some rap and anything pushing boundaries.

So I may use this and create a new account.

Working title is:

LIBER MUSICA

Latin for "The Book of Music" (at least according to Google and my very basic Latin).

I'm at the point of my life where work is great, my kid is an independent teen and I have the world before in terms of seeing and exploring the world.

My intent is to share the sounds of musicians from around the world in the punk, metal, hardcore and alt scene. It's really about my own journey of musical discovery.

I'll be on the hunt for unknown artists and sounds in addition to what is already popular with the kids.

Given I'm an ex-librarian the idea of a library filled with the music I love is what inspired me.

Anyhoo, thanks to all those who have already responded positively - I appreciate you liking and tooting.

I think a community that is actively sharing music, boosting new artists and making the world better through metal is a wonderful idea.

So yeah, I'll update peeps here and see how it goes.

More #metal Saturday.

Mostly all-girl Aussie band "The Beautiful Monument" played at Cvltfest in Melbourne.

Didn't know these guys, but came away deeply impressed and enjoying their back catalogue.

Great clean vocals matched with some solid song writing and a deft mix of heavy and delicate sounds.

Check out their latest album on the YouTubes:

The track "Stay" is beautiful.

Also check out this clip made during the recent Good*Things festival (which I attended).

Photo is mine, which I took at CvltFest of their lead guitarist at crowdsourcing.

HEAR THE BODIES DROP!

Welcome to Metal Saturday - where every Sāturnī diēs is metal.

Today, one of my favourite Aussie acts metalcore band Alphawolf.

Had the great pleasure of seeing them about a month ago at #Cvltfest - the inaugural metalcore festival these lads have started.

It was a full day of metal and I spent a wonderful 6 almost consecutive hours in the mosh pit. Felt somewhat sore and bruised for the rest of the week but... worth it!

This is one of the biggest songs, "Akudama".

Clip is their #brisbane show a few months back but which gives you an exact feel for the intensity of their live shows.

Watch for the band member leaping into the pit at 2:36 mins!

If you can make sure to see them live: their touring all around the world the moment.

Figured I should spread the music love on both my instances;
Went to a metal gig last night as my mate's band The Lost Knights were opening. The next band, Windwaker were new to me but I loved them so much I bought a shirt. Then Northlane hammered it home. Great night of some Aussie metal.

Went through my old #CD's, this #song from Bane of Bedlam was on one of them, one of the first I ever bought myself and it's an absolute banger

Alkira from #Adelaide were one of #Australia's best thrash bands, a shame they pulled up stumps in their prime! Always a mad time whenever they played

In Malice's Wake from #Melbourne are #Australia's most talented band I won't hear any arguments otherwise, I have no idea how they can play this stuff faster live.
