Into Eternity
The Scattering Of Ashes
Century Media
41:22 - 11 Tracks
The best of power metal and power technical death/black metal these days. They’ve gone through a ton of lineup changes, but as with a lot of bands like that, they have the one visionary that is his band (Tim Roth) that keeps the sound on the track. The songs are well put together, heavy, melodic and crisp and clear sound. You’ll definately hear this on the Mosh Pit!

Fahrenheit 451
If I Knew Then What I Know Now…
Awake Strong Records
76:28 - 22 Tracks
Kind of old school metal/rap/punk… similar to Bad Brains… This CD/DVD set has demos and a lot of previously unreleased material, which if you are a fan, it’s cool, but this is not really Mosh Pit material. Due to a light week of new stuff, you might hear this!

Regurgitate
Sickening Bliss
Relapse Records
36:09 - 26 Tracks
A lot of really short tracks on this CD. Glassic gore/grind sounding death metal. Simple death metal blast beats and guitar grinding, vomitous screams and growls round this out. There isn’t much stuff like this out there anymore, and it will be a welcome addition to the Mosh Pit!

Chthonic
Seediq Bale
Down Port Music
Melodic black metal from Taiwan! Some cool keyboard stuff, great guitar shredding, and drums either severely triggered or from a drum machine thrown all together with some classic black metal scream growl vocals. It all works together, and it’s also a bonus that it’s some extreme metal music coming from Asia. You’ll hear this in the Mosh Pit.
