Sh*t That Comes Out Today – May 24, 2024
If you’re reading this from the chaotic confines of the United States of America, then you’re either already off for the long weekend or you’re counting the hours until you’re free to take off for said long weekend. Stop looking at the clock, you know it goes slower when you do that. Just sit down, pretend to be working, and check out some new tunes.
Abrams
Blue City (Blues Funeral Recordings)
Hailing from Denver, these guys have a special ability to hook you into whatever they’re playing, even if it’s not the most melt-your-face off metal at all times. If you dig Baroness, you’ll really dig these guys.
Bring Me The Horizon
Post Human: Nex Gen (label)
In a surprising move that nearly no one saw coming, Bring Me The Horizon unceremoniously released their latest album Post Human: Nex Gen. It’s a wild, often confounding batch of new tracks, so definitely give it a listen knowing that it might not be your cup o’ tea. A number of these songs have been played by the band already, so you might already have a grasp on what the album’s putting down.
Dopethrone
Broke Sabbath (Totem Cat Records)
Sludge metal titans Dopethrone are back with their latest album, Broke Sabbath. Serving as the band’s first new release in six years, this Canadian powerhouse has released something that’s dirty, gross, angry, and completely worth your time.
Rotting Christ
Pro Xristou (Season Of Mist)
Leave it to a band full of Greeks to remind the rest of the world that yes, empires actually do fall. Not that anyone from a certain major superpower might actually be living in those times, mind you…
Vale Of Pnath
Between The Worlds Of Life And Death (Willowtip Records)
Eight years stand between Vale of Pnath and their previous full-length studio album II. Over that time, some major shit’s gone down, but one thing remains the same — this band knows how to put a little extra somethin’ somethin’ on whatever it is they’re doing. This album is no exception.

Bleakheart, Silver Pulse (Seeing Red Records)
