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..

[laxlife1234]

^^Yup! Meshuggah blows my mind listening to them. Honestly its so complex its like math. I have tried to play some of their stuff but it always ends up with me throwing my drum sticks across the room cause it is out of this universe and only robots can play that type of music.

I am pretty sure they invented the djent sound that a lot of bands that I like use.

Edit: Kinda sounds like TDEP they practically invented mathcore
