Weekly Metal Recommendations Feb 12-18
If you need even more metal in your life, I get all my info from https://www.metal-archives.com/ and http://metalstorm.net/home/.
I’m no longer using a rating system and will be doing a shorter list. This list now only includes the things going on my buy list or things I want to promote.

Feb 15, 2022
Band: Altair
Release: Ghosts ‘n Sinners
Style: Heavy, Power, Traditional
Sounds like it came out of the early 80’s NWOBHM, and I love every second so far. I’m also reminded of early Savatage.
Band: Schizophrenia
Release: Recollections of the Insane
Style: Death, Death/Thrash
Fantastic! Forced to headbang to this old school death sound reminiscent of some of the best Death/Thrash plus reminding me of one of my favorite death bands, Malevolent Creation.
Feb 18, 2022
Band: Immolation
Release: Acts of God
Style: Death
How could I not have such a classic death metal band included here.
Band: Spirits of Fire
Release: Embrace the Unknown
Style: Heavy
I would say this is an unexpected supergroup, but apparently this isn’t even their first album.
Band: Nightrage
Release: Abyss Rising
Style: Melodic Death
I’m reminded of many of the melodic death metal bands I love, but this band is good enough to stand on their own.
Band: Re-Machined
Release: Brain Dead
Style: Traditional
Has a strait forward style reminiscent of Accept.
Band: Mind Patrol
Release: Milking the Masses
Style: Thrash
worth a listen, I’m getting exodus vibes.
Band: Hydra
Release: Beyond Life and Death
Style: Doom
Love the vocals here, a lot of doom bands unfortunately bore me, but this singer brings some much needed dynamics to his delivery.
