I swam across the world thrice to bring you what’s fresh, what’s exciting, what’s baffling and what’s new. You’re welcome.<\/p>\n

Meshuggah<\/strong> is undoubtedly one of the biggest and most influential acts in metal right now. According to label\u00a0Nuclear Blast<\/strong> we can expect to hear new releases from them, along with label mates\u00a0Nile,\u00a0<\/strong>All Shall Perish<\/strong>,\u00a0Immolation<\/strong> and more importantly – for me, at least – the first full length release by\u00a0Brujeria<\/strong> in 15 years, featuring none other than El Cynico, a.k.a. Jeffrey Walker (Carcass<\/strong>) on bass duty.<\/p>\n

Nuclear Blast has already dropped a couple gems upon us metalheads this year, like Melechesh<\/strong>‘s Enki<\/em>, Enslaved<\/b>‘s In Times<\/em> and\u00a0Blind Guardian<\/strong>‘s Beyond The Red Mirror<\/em>. It looks like they have no plans on backing down from crushing 2015 with high-profile records.<\/p>\n

Is that a roster or what?<\/p><\/div>\n

The Dillinger Escape Plan<\/strong> has just announced a June mini-tour on the East Coast, backed by\u00a0Mutoid Man\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Primitive Weapons<\/strong>. See if you’ll be given the grace of watching Greg Puciato in action below:<\/p>\n

Drum kit\u00a0juggernaut\u00a0Gene Hoglan <\/strong>(Death<\/strong>,\u00a0Strapping Young Lad<\/strong>,\u00a0Testament<\/strong>,\u00a0Dethklok<\/strong>, Everyone & Their Mother’s [seriously, this list in endless])\u00a0has promised two things about the new\u00a0Dark Angel<\/strong> album: (1) It will be awesome and they will try to destroy everyone; (2) They will refrain from using modern production\u00a0crutches<\/del> and will sound as organic as possible.<\/p>\n

Like, I don’t think you’re gonna see some heavily processed, gridded today’s production on it. I like it to be as organic and performance-captured situation as possible rather than just have it sound like some sterile\u2026 We don’t wanna do that. I’m not gonna Pro Tool the drums or have them gridded. And we’re not gonna loop guitar parts that\u2026 ‘Okay, you played that take great. Well, I’ll just cut it and paste it in the next part.’ We’re gonna play it all.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Deafheaven\u00a0<\/strong>have posted this photo<\/a> of guitarist Kerry McCoy inside a studio, with a caption that reads “LP3”. I may be wrong on this one, but it seems recordings for their third album is under way. This will be the follow-up to 2013’s most hated & most loved album,\u00a0Sunbather<\/em>. Will the new record be any good? I don’t know. What I do know is that it is probably going to be as divisive as its predecessor. The last track released by the San Francisco group was “From The Kettle Onto The Coil”, which you can listen to at\u00a0this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Moving on to a slightly blacker shade of black (shouts out to Sterling Archer<\/a>), Suicidal Black Doom Metal duo\u00a0Yhdarl\u00a0<\/strong>have released a 7 minute audio ov the track “Ignite-Ashes”. It is a sneak peek into a track that tops over 15 minutes. According to the band, the best part was intentionally left out. Oooh. These gentlemen always had my curiosity, but now they have my attention. Do they have yours? If so, check out how brilliantly they have been covered in the Toilet before, once by a guy named Mendel and another time by a dude who lives inside Bandcamp – stab here<\/a> & here<\/a>, respectively.\u00a0Yhdarl’s new album will be released this summer\/fall by way of Belgian label Tanquam Aegri Somnia.<\/p>\n
