New Music 9/7

Date: September 7, 2015

Here is the new music for this week:

Iron Maiden - Tears of a Clown

The Iron Maiden album is finally here! For being as seasoned as they are, it is amazing how can they can release a double album and still have no filler at all. They're about to embark on their world tour on their own plane, the Ed Force One, with Bruce Dickinson piloting it for the whole tour.

RIYL: Iron maiden

Nile - Negating the Abominable Coils of Apep

One of the most popular death metal bands right now. All their songs are about Egyptian history, and this album takes that to the next step. They also said their last album was too "Clean" so they tried to make this as heavy as possible.

RIYL: Kataklysm, Suffocation, Hate Eternal

Sevendust - Not Today

Sevendust is dropping its second single about a month before the release of their highly anticipated album, "Kill the Flaw." One of the biggest "WSOU bands" that we broke when they first started in this scene.

RIYL: Mudvayne, Nonpoint, Korn

Hemlock - Revolution

A really groovy band that has been around since the 90s and has toured with some of the bigger names in its genre (Lamb of God, DevilDriver, Chimaira, etc) a bunch.

RIYL: DevilDriver, Chimaira, Shadow Fall

Masters of Metal - Tomb of Ra

I could have sworn this was an 80s thrash song when I heard it. I honestly still think it is, it just took forever for this band to release the album. There's also a lot of NWOBHM vibes on this track so if you like that era of music, you'll love this.

RIY: Overkill, annihilator, Anthrax

Aftermath - A Temptation to Overthrow

An old school late 80s/90s crossover band that had a cult following and is re-recording a lot of its old demos and albums that got lost as the years went on. Most crossover bands list them as the pioneers of the movement.

RIYL: DRI, Iron Reagan, Municipal Waste

As always, if you see something you like, request it!
