Metalcore? This shit rocked my ass off today. That breakdown almost killed me.
 
Oh yeah, Korrozia Metalla had a neo-nazi phase didn't they.
But they're Russian, which might as well be middle earth in the west, so nobody really knows of them or cares enough to ban their albums on spotify/discogs haha
 
Big improvement over the first one, much obliged.
You're welcome.

Any addition you particularly appreciated?

That album specifically has this little number on it. Given their later career, I wouldn't be surprised if this song was celebrating the Klan:

They also covered Skrewdriver's classic "Hail the New Dawn", but that fucking guitar sounds like Savage Garden, for whatever goddamn reason:
 
my first ever vinyl purchases.

Speaking of Canadian crusties doing Black/Death Metal, I keep revisiting Iskra in the hope that I'll get used to the vocals but everytime I leave disappointed. It's so frustrating, because the band is great, but there is absolutely no variation in the vocals within or throughout all their songs at all, ever, which is such a waste.

True, no variation. And very generic.
Listening to their "Ruins" album now. Good album, nice Necrophobic vibes here and there but the vocals are a bit lack luster indeed.

Looking at some live footage it finally occurred to me that the singer is probably running her mic through a filter, and my question is just... why?

a) lack of skill / without filter it sounds worse
b) to achieve a special kind of sound that fits more to the music
c) retarded reason like "I can use a filter so I use a filter"
 
New GBK studio album announced three days ago on the WTC Instagram. First in 17 years. The song snippet was short, but from what I could tell the production on the drums is some of the best I’ve heard. I know Gelal’s stuff is usually guitar oriented but the drums always impress me, especially in Hornets of the Pogrom.

Check out the dumpster fire of a thread M-A has going on it right now if you want a laugh

And yeah, it sounds like Kosherat with a more bottomy drum sound, as far as I can tell from the sample.
Instagram compression probably doesn't help, but it does sound a bit slammed (but what else is new)
Guess I'll be buying one 2022 album before the year's over.

Jesus christ, NWN getting nuked really was the final nail in the coffin for metal forums. The criteria these people have for "non-sketch" music is totally unreasonable so they end up riding the wave of shitty flavor of the week bandcamp RABM and OSDM nobody's heard of instead. That's why they shit on the 90s bands so much. They're so prolific and so well documented in chris chan level detail that if you look hard enough, you'll find something sketch even in the most politically ambivalent bands. I pity them. They wouldn't know a good riff if Hank Shermann beat them over the head with Melissa.
 
In the Metal Archives thread some people talked about how this thread here is not really moving forward. So if it's ok I am going to post here instead of the "What are you listening to now" thread as long as it's Metal.

np: last year's album of CAVERNE. French "national romantic" BM. Unfortunately it's their last album.
