Sorry if already posted Loving these, goat-a-licious Krwawy Pontyfikat | Okrütnik (bandcamp.com) Crucifier - Led Astray | Iron Bonehead Productions (bandcamp.com)

Aloha Mark! Hope the east coast is treating you well. I do use the Dragonfly, or a small portable amp, or a dongle for both, but Meze's do not need much.

Another 10 year-in-the-making release. Brutal black death from Mexico: Into the Path of the Gods | Alfa Eridano Akhernar (bandcamp.com)

Feels like there are already a bunch clogging my wishlist. Here's one, after 10 years these Germans are back with a slab of slightly melodic, riff-stuffed black. The Aphotic Embrace | Zwielicht (bandcamp.com)

Meze's are a treat to my ears! Warm, rich and surprisingly light. I have Drop's HD6XX and they are the other side of the coin - open back, very detailed, expansive, precise, and defined layers of sound. I probably lean to the Meze's more. Comfort food for your earholes.

Back from hiatus but about to be super busy for a few weeks again. Thought this NYP gem was worth posting. Give it a chance and be rewarded with folk-tinged, slightly blackened pagan melodic death with some amazing but too few King Diamond-esque riff/solo runs. Beyond Unseen Gateways | Ildaruni (bandcamp.com)

The Arylic was a great intro and I have since upgraded to the Wiim Pro Plus. Got it on sale for $175 on a black Friday deal. Ether from router to the wiim, coax to my Edifier S3000 pros, awesome app that I use to play my Tidal all the way to hi-res and mqa quality. Wiim pro plus meets the hype in terms of DAC, app functions including eq and sound quality settings, and full functionality of Tidal favorites and Playlist. This set up is end game and what I was looking for in terms of easy access and control, good remote, and connectivity. Unlocks the S3000s to full potential for deep clean base, tight, clear separation and detail throughout. Loud enough that we can hear the bass thumping from three houses over. Very happy with this. If bandcamp can just make a compatible app I will really be set.

Changing pace, I haven't heard these Norwegians before but this is excellently crafted, thoughtfully done, stripped-down avant-garde/modern black metal. In Death I Shall Arise | Tilintetgjort (bandcamp.com)

Vastum is back and the promo track is killer Inward To Gethsemane | Vastum | 20 Buck Spin Sticking with 20buckspin Gravesend also has a new one. Grindcore terrorism indeed (shoutout to @MacabreEternal for that phrase) Gowanus Death Stomp | Gravesend | 20 Buck Spin

Cristo Demente | Túmulo (bandcamp.com) Some blackened speed/d-beat. Switzerland Unholy Sacrifice | World Decay (bandcamp.com) Thrash! From Belgium. 2 song EP, but the featured track is titled Goat Rider. Keep it coming lads.

Here is some goat juice to rinse the Tomb Mold taste out of your mouth! Dele Et Vinces | Blasphemous Division (bandcamp.com) No prisoner black war thrash assault from Peru! Just messing around the Tomb Mold is to me obviously excellent, but for me it's a sit back and analytically pick the parts that are good vs. listening and being mindlessly compelled to pump fists and bang head. Sometimes, most times, you just have to let the goats run wild!

Vile Ritual - Caverns of Occultic Hatred Perfect words to describe these sounds! Grafvitnir - Into the Outer Wilderness Love these guys they always deliver icy Swedish black with no BS Ekpyrosis - Primordial Chaos Restored Italian DM that I always liked but they split up Maze of Terror - The Night Where the Evil Prevails Peruvian balls-to-the-wall black speed thrash. Fun times and this one is a horror movie themed album. Pretty sure this is the millionth time that has been done but who cares its good stuff.

"under control" is relative Of course you and I both remember when 2TB was more memory than existed on planet earth.

Pretty quiet around here but here are a few new purchases: Awesome new additions: IKKO OH300 IEMs. A budget IEM to be sure but instantly my favorites. Detail, stage, imaging, tuning- all really nice. Trend to the clear and bright side, but not overly so. Arylic S10 Streamer thing. Attaches to internet and wired to speakers with an app so I can easily play music on my powered speakers, controlled by my phone but not over wi-fi. This thing is great. Super easy to set up, control and unlocks ridiculous tonality, especially base, that I did not even know my speakers could handle. Really nice little device that was cheap enough for my budget hifi aspirations. Not awesome: Ifi Go dongle dac/amp. Not strong enough of an amp for HPs, not needed for iems. Decodes MQA which is why I got it, but Tidal dropped MQA. Has a nasty crackle at times, gets hot. Sounds fine but my smaller DAC dongle sounds just as good. Not offensively bad and sounds good when not crackling, but not needed anymore.

Dark Angel - Time Does Not Heal

Megadeth - CtE

Wallfahrer - Anthologie Der Abkehr

Serviceable and faithful OSDM of the Swedish variety by way of Nippon. Frostvore • Drowned by Blood | Testimony Records (bandcamp.com)

The Rite - The Astral Gloom

Sarcófago - Hate Its channels like this that make me wish I spent more time on Youtube and less on Bandcamp and Tidal Death Metal Supply - YouTube

Not sure but its pretty damn good. This Demonic Being is absolutely killer though.

Under The Sign Of Rebellion | Rebaelliun | Agonia Records (bandcamp.com) Just the pre-release promo track, but I can't fing wait. Love these guys.

Mudhoney - Souvenir of my Trip

At the very least the other kids at their middle school should be impressed. The kid on the left is my hero look at that battle jacket.

This new release is getting spins. A smorgasbord of modern, polished rifftastic DM goodness. An amazing effort put forth on this one. Bonus points for having a made up word for a name. Horrific Illusions Beckon | Begravement (bandcamp.com)
