Jan 1-8 Weekly Metal Recommendations
Starting this year I will no longer being do a comprehensive list of all releases. If you need even more metal in your life, I get all my info from https://www.metal-archives.com/ from which you can find upcoming releases, and from http://metalstorm.net/home/, from which you can find both upcoming and past releases although it is not as complete of a list compared to metal-archives.)
(I’m still using the rating system from our “New Releases” list although I will likely no longer be listing anything below a +2 unless it comes from a very well known band)
-1 - not for me or just bad
+0 - not particularly interesting or not that good
+1 - worth checking out if you like the style
+2 - interest peaked
+3 going on my buy list
+4 already bought or pre-ordered
