MetalSucks’ Least-Sucky Songs of the Week

This was a good week for bands and artists whose names start with the letter A.

Bodom After Midnight, “Paint the Sky with Blood”

Our first taste of the last material Alexi Laiho recorded before his death.

The Absence, “Choirs of Sickness”

The song is, indeed, quite ill.

Alluvial, “Thy Underling”

Featuring current and former members of The Faceless, Suffocation, Black Crown Initiate, Entheos and The Zenith Passage.

Animal Schoolbus, “I Can Do One-Handed Cartwheels”

This is a father-daughter grind duo; the daughter, Princess Beast, is nine, and has been screaming she was two, which explains why she’s so damn good at it.

The Armed, “An Iteration”

The rare music video that’s as much fun as the song it features.
