New Music Report – February 11, 2022

Fully chugging along with new releases now, and lots of exciting singles coming out foreshadowing some huge releases that will be coming out later in the year. We’re already into some really huge releases for the year, including a big one this week from Cult of Luna.

Cult of Luna – I LOVE Cult of Luna. I have to say though, I didn’t quite feel the hype going into this album, I didn’t pay much attention to the singles, it just sort of showed up one day. And I almost like it more because of that. Cult of Luna albums are best digested as a whole and being able to hear this piece of music as a single cohesive piece, as intended, was kind of incredible. This is a perfect next step to A Dawn to Fear, and honestly just as remarkable.

Zeal & Ardor – This is just an incredible band, there aren’t many bands out there pushing the boundaries of metal, activism, and honestly just music in general quite like Zeal & Ardor. It’s a very eccentric mix of black metal, blues, hardcore, soul, and basically everything you can imagine, wrapping around lyrical content that make Rage Against the Machine look like Rush Limbaugh.

Singles/Albums – In Hearts Wake (EP, Metalcore), Once Human (LP, Metalcore), Trentemoller (LP, Electronic), Dark Funeral (Black Metal), Wolves at the Gate (Post Hardcore), Dayshell (Post Hardcore), Spite (Hardcore)
