Astral Funeral, by Ancient Seance

Astral Funeral

by Ancient Seance

supported by

PKMetal There are two types of "trippy" metal. The most common is the kind where you're around a campfire with friends enjoying a substance of choice. And then there's the kind where you're wandering in dark caves, seeing monsters around every corner while you lick patches of wet mold to survive. Guess which one this is? Hint: It's dark down here.

StillbirthMockery Off-kilter USPM/speed metal with an almost first wave black metal touch to both the tonality and riffing choices. Demon Bitch comes to mind but this dwells in realms more infernal in character, reminiscent of something like a condensed and classic metal interpretation of recent Predatory Light. Promising band we desperately need a debut album by already.

Dream Quest Ends
by Smoulder

supported by 10 fans who also own “Astral Funeral”

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good. playfulpooka

Mother's Guilty Pleasure Part One

Unexpected power metal win, but I'm not complaining. A large part of me loves the severe deviation from power metal norms while still making absolutely fantastic power metal at the same time. Brett (Lascaille's Shroud / Soulmass)

RONDE DE NUIT
by meurtrières

supported by 10 fans who also own “Astral Funeral”

My bad never heard of these Lyonnais before, and boy did I miss something. Starting with "Rubicon" and immediately I am hooked, it's grabbing and not letting you go, relentlessly captivating, also the vocals, it's high-pitched powerful female vocals, and it sounds full of energy, like the singer is about to have an aneurism, but not screaming either. The album continues with plenty of energetic hooks, riffs and that catchy rhythm that keeps you rocking (e.g. Ronde de Nuit). Putain c'est BON sachavonkarl74

I love myself some classic heavy metal, especially when the vocals are as strong as with Lady Beast. What a discovery! dcdirkzwager
