@holla:

Maybe "prog" as in "progressive rock" combined with "fantastic"?

this^

Speaking of progressive rock AAL an amazing instrumental band. Tesseract is also another band I love but they are similar to AAL more so than BOO.

…This is progressive death metal (I hate death and metal in the same sentence... turns so many people off).

I dig what Tesseract does, but I have to say that born of Osiris is quite unlistenable for me…

Haha just my opinion.

2nd new Opeth.

[elclintor]

^ I've heard the whole album.

It's really great…

[hasty]

I'm jealous! I've read its got a full on 70s sound and no 'death metal'.

Slowing it down a little. I've had Yob's Atma on constant rotation for the last few weeks. Bit of a grower and probably not to everyone's taste, but I think it's…erm...Doom-errific 

[derivative666]

I have heard it as well. I like it even more then Damnation.

[riffblaster general]

big fan of Yob.

[MastersOfDeath]

nice to see Opeth getting some love here. Loving 'Heritage' so far… opener reminds me of

.

Looking forward to this as well..

Have you heard the new Negative Plane record?

[Seul]

Blasted that'un this morning… New Nightbringer's decent as well.. That'un 's actually "new new"... NP 's been out for a couple of months... Sounds even better on vinyl of course... 

New BLUT AUS NORD in November as well... Gonna be a good month!..

Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree) must of had a huge influence on "Heritage"

[elclintor]

He's produced a few albums of Opeth's.. (Blackwater Park, Deliverance, Damnation) So he's always been an influence.

I'm not sure if he produced Heritage.. Sounds like it though..

[derivative666]

Yeh completely I love Porcupine Tree

Hey, everyone has theirs :p Tesseract is pretty damn good. They are more of my mellow out music - they are imo like the heavy rock that just jams. They aren't too hardcore and its mostly clean vocals.

I never though I would be listening to BOO but to be honest after a while they grew on me and they are so insane. Cameron Losch (the drummer) is probably one of the better drummers out there. I love any type of music with weird timings and fast beats.

[elclintor]

Ever listen to Meshuggah?

They pretty much invented that polyrhythmic style of metal..

[derivative666]

Looking forward to new Mastodon

[elclintor]

This one's a classic..

From '95..  Blew my mind when I first heard it..
