Heavier and darker, slithering its way from Örebro, Sweden, comes Wormtales, a prequel to the critically acclaimed 2023 album, Visions of Infinihility. Wormtales contains some of the band's most impressive riffs thus far and once again lures the listener into the realm of infinihility. Release date: October 18 on Willowtip Records Track Listing: 1. Birthless 2. Within Throat, Within Heart 3. Neglectikon 4. Yearnings of A Rotten Spine 5. Worm Charmer 6. Harbinger of Woundism 7. Paradoxical Impulse 8. Wound of Wisdom 9. Cosmoclaustrum 10. Solace In Soil Credits: Recorded and produced by Carnosus (except drums; recorded and produced by Robert Kukla & Dennis Rosic). Re-amped, mixed and mastered by Robert Kukla at Obsidian Recording Studios. Cover artwork by Timon Kokott.

Well that was super cool, exciting exposure too.
- Space Corpse (or Spacecorpse?) - Shapeshifter [EP] (USA-CO) - [Valsa Pintura - Plénitude [EP] (France) (instrumental tech)](https://valsapintura.bandcamp.com/album/pl-nitude) Also, don't forget to catch Gojira playing the Olympic opening ceremony in a couple hours! Bonus - misc eye-catching new releases since I last posted, listed loosely in reverse order of release: - Abiosis - Hollowing the Mortal Form - Serpentslain - Cognitive Dissonance [EP] - August Mayhem - Incredulity (arguably deathcore) - Commander - Angstridden (very groovy, ffo Griefgod, Eye of Horus) - Lynchpin - ...This Mortal Coil [EP] - Fallujah - The Flesh Prevails 10 year anniversary remix/remaster (I haven't done a close enough A:B listen to understand the difference, but damn is TFP a great album) - Helvetskval - Hjarnspoken - Abandon Agony - Dark Matter [EP] - Replacire - The Center That Cannot Hold - Severe Torture - Torn from the Jaws of Death (not tech, but gotta love these DM kings) - The Fallen - S/T (arguably *core) - Ulcerate - Cutting the Throat of God

I promise I’m not dead, just very busy with both work stuff and life stuff. Thanks to other posters for contributing content to the community! I definitely don’t intend to be the primary poster long-term lol
Light on proper tech this week, here's a mix of tangentially related stuff that might be worthwhile - [Diminish the Gods - Exopaedian (AUS-NSW) (I've been waiting for this for over a year, haven't listened yet but should be good for tech/core enthusiasts)](https://diminishthegods.bandcamp.com/album/exopaedian) - [A Karmic Gray - Ghosts of Times Obscure (USA-OH)](https://akarmicgray.bandcamp.com/album/ghosts-of-times-obscure) - [Shitkluster - Shitocracy (USA-KY)](https://shitkluster.bandcamp.com/album/shitocracy) - Xenocide - S/T [EP] (USA-IL)

Weird prog-death goodness out soon
Whitechapel - The Saw Is the Law (USA-TN, 2014) Obviously, any metal with "death" in the genre name never ends up literally on the radio. But some singles are catchy in a way that feels like a radio jam. This is one of my best examples of that, alongside Aversions Crown - Hollow Earth and Carnifex - Pray For Peace
Oops late one this week - [Blasteroid - Crypts of Mind (Greece)](https://blasteroid24.bandcamp.com/album/crypts-of-mind) (ffo Mastodon, but deathier than that) - [Cutterred Flesh - Love at First Bite (Czechia)](https://cutterredfleshband.bandcamp.com/album/love-at-first-bite) (again, NYP right now) - [Esodic - De Facto De Jure [EP] (Jordan)](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_k74Ls78WiwoToGFZI40ZowvEpQYI55YIs) (death/thrash, and the first Jordanian band that's come to my attention) - [Vale of Pnath - Between the Worlds of Life and Death (USA-CO)](https://valeofpnath.bandcamp.com/album/between-the-worlds-of-life-and-death)

From clicking around, it seems to be that all existing releases are name-your-price, and preorders are $1. Definitely give this a look - here is a sample of albums that appear for me as NYP: - The Last of Lucy - Godform (yes, the new one, super sick) - Replicant - Infinite Mortality (also quite new) - Dyssebeia - Garden of Stillborn Idols - Arborescence of Wrath - Inferno (underrated af) - Orphalis - As the Ashes Settle And some head-turning $1 preorders: - Carnophage - Matter of a Darker Nature - Cutterred Flesh - Love at First Bite - Februus - Surveillance Orgy

Maaaaaan - this is what’s cool about the huge umbrella that is metal. It includes the stuff I always post on this community, yes, your JFAC, your Carnosus, relentless techy wankery. But it also includes beautiful operatic melodic metal like this. The guitar work makes me want to go explore the ruins of a temple, and the vocals make me want to soar above it. This is what Mods Are Drunk Friday is for, thanks for sharing

Ugh that’s really tough, they’re both solid. I agree about the slight edge to Moon Healer. It’s just hard to set aside how big a stylistic change Sun Water had been from previous releases, how much Jonny’s vocal range had expanded, etc. Felt really fresh at the time. But goddamn, Agony Seeping Storm…

Ok awesome. Well welcome to the community! Feel free to post whatever you like, I’m pretty liberal with genre bounds, so a little black/prog/melodic/core creeps in a lot of the time. My main focus is music discovery, including for myself, so I’ll definitely check out Underdark and Agriculture, those are not names I’ve heard. JFAC has been a favorite forever, so I’ll talk about them all day long lol

Somewhat late post this week, but man oh man I've been absolutely drunk on the quality releases! I was super excited for Hour of Penance (excellent, I can tell I'll be playing this a lot over the coming weeks), but then stunned at newcomers Jet Engine Dragons, and how hadn't I heard about Burn Down Eden or Monastery Dead until now?! I also only just discovered Orecus on my tour through Sweden (musical, not literal), and now they have a new one - groovy af.

Totally fair, and a fun thing about the tech side of things is that the instruments are doing plenty of interesting work, even without vocals. I’d try some quality instrumental tech/prog death, like Omnivalence (criminally hard to find, for how good it is, but I think it’s on YouTube), Blotted Science (somewhat more old-school sound), Sleep Terror (progressive and a little humorous, their latest Railroad to Dystopia is killer, and Screams of Tenerife off a previous one is an absolute jam), Essence of Datum, Myth of I… I don’t wanna give you too much to start with, but there’s plenty to get into, lmk what strikes a chord.
Ooh and honorable mention: I love Carnosus, and they recently released an instrumental version of their latest album, calling it Visions of Instrumentahility.

Yeah! Reclaimer really grabbed me when that came out. Ben Duerr can at once demonstrate that he’s one of the best vocalists in deathcore and also not overdo the “look at me” theatrics that can turn people off of the genre
