    Ooo this is an unexpectedly big release day.

    The Menzingers - Everything I Ever Saw
    Revisited all 4 singles last night and I've got very high hopes for this one. After The Party was the last album to really resonate with me even though I've enjoyed all their albums.

    Quicksand - Bring on the Psychics
    This one is going to rip isn't it? I still find it mad that they are back and making music as good as this. Slip was 33 bloody years ago.

    Protest the Hero - Within
    Palimpsest really reignited my interest in Protest The Hero and I think it contained some of their best songs to date. I didn't listen to the single Mouthpiece so I'm going to enjoy going in completely blind to this.

    Loathe - A Stranger to You
    I hear nothing but good things about Loathe. I enjoyed seeing them open for Spiritbox a few years back, but will finally give them a proper go with this album.

    • Psycroptic (The Pulse of Annihilation) -- These guys have been on a 3-ablum roll. Tech-death that doesn't sound like it's made by robots. The riffs really take a lot of influences and are just awesome.
    • Protest the Hero (Within) -- This thing is stupid incredible.
    • As It Is (S/T) -- This album is the brightest/happiest the band has ever sounded. It's a real whiplash from their last few records. I like it a lot more than those last few.
    • Boundaries (Yearning...) -- One of the best active metalcore bands. Great chugs, breakdowns, super heavy, and can be really catchy. Also, don't worry, it's not your headphones, the production is absolutely atrocious on this.
    • Fuming Mouth (The Ringing Bell) -- Superb mix of hardcore & death metal. love these dudes.
    • Riley! (To Live And Die...) -- Emo-tinged pop-punk. Think older Real Friends. It's good.
    • Haken (in a fever dream) -- I am pleasantly surprised that I like this. I was unsure about this band after the departure of Charles Griffiths. While the music is a bit more simplistic, it is still pretty good and definitely still Haken.
    • Loathe (A Stranger to You) -- Post-hardcore/Metalcore/Nu-metal. This one has a lot more electronics in it then their last one. I am unsure how I like this... I think I like it? It will probably grow on me. I love their other LPs.
    • Black Sites (For Eternity) -- Good progressive trad heavy metal/proto-metal.
    • Inferno (The Anthropic Sophisms...) -- Epic, oppressive blackened death metal.
