I know that a lot of people have trouble keeping up with new music because there is so damn much of it. I made a real quick list of most of my favorite metal/heavy releases of the 2020s so far. Pretty wide range of styles here- a good sampling of what modern metal has to offer. Mostly random order…

I wanted all those books so bad. I guess I could just buy them all now.

How can anyone cite Ezra Klein after his pathetic “Charlie Kirk did it the right way” garbage? I’m pro market (pro universal healthcare of course) but anti-dipshit- makes it hard to care what Ezra Klein thinks about anything. Free market folk need to become more comfortable with not being losers.

I deeply regret the years I spent not listening to Bongripper because of their stupid name.

I don’t know who the fuck is planning these shows but how is this possible? Is this on purpose to fuck with me? @category-fury.bsky.social I blame you for my pain.

Just secured tix for Kayo Dot in February. Thank you @category-fury.bsky.social for your KD enthusiasm.

Ugh. Huge bummer.

They have gone the Baroness route. Albums are unlistenable but somehow they are still good live.

Fuck both these things

I am pretty far behind on new music so who knows where my heart will be in 3 months

This is pretty good. I would add Cult of Luna and The Ocean to the FFO list.

I really don’t like 90s rock (I really was just assaulted with it nonstop growing up) but this album immediately sounded more appealing. Very pleasing guitar tone.
