Cloudkicker - Subsume


Epic instrumental metal/post rock/whathaveyou. More riffs, less ambient than his past couple albums.

Bossk - .1


More or less the apotheosis of the mid-00s post metal explosion, as far as I'm concerned.

More stuff to make BM purists froth at the mouth.

Riffy post-rock/metal sadtimes.

AoP - TGAI


Heavy, weird, only tenuously related to black metal. One of the more challenging records to come out so far this year.

Second part of the trilogy.

A Silver Mt. Zion - 13 Blues for Thirteen Moons


That feel where you have everything you could possibly want and are still fed up, bored, and unsatisfied with your life. One million died to make this blog post.

Posted for a friend. If for some reason you don't have this, time to fix that.

Hell Comes Home


Irish label that put out a series of split seven inches featuring some excellent bands (Thou, Kowloon Walled City, Coffinworm, Fistula, Burning Love, Dephosphorus, etc). Certainly worth a look.

Jungbluth - s/t tape


Turns out the "hype," such as it is, is well founded on this one. Member(s?) of Alpinist I guess, kinda jangly, kinda epic, vaguely post but still heavy and aggressive punk and hardcore. Named after a German communist and antifascist.

*Shels - Plains Of The Purple Buffalo


Gorgeous, sprawling, epic, feel-good post-rock/metal. Somewhere between Mono and Pelican.

Well, that didn't take long to leak. It's been a decade, let's see how this holds up.

The Reptilian


Something a little different for you. The Reptilian are heroes of Kalamazoo's local music scene, playing tappy, mathy post-punk/rock with screamo vocals. I know, I didn't think I'd like them either. Maybe I've just got hometown-band-tinted glasses on. Anyway, their discography is free, so you might as well check them out.
