TAKE A LEAK: BYZANTINE, OBLIVION BECKONS

byzantinecover.jpgByzantine are a band I think I should like more than I actually do like – but I know some people go absolutely ape shit for them. Their new album, Oblivion Beckons, is still a few weeks away from a legal release, but in the meantime The Underworld already has it for free download.

Oblivion Beckons gets its official release on Prosthetic on January 22.

It sounds a lot like Pantera. Shocker.

    I’m gunna give this album a big OK..as in, I’d listen to it, but not buy it.

    And I wouldn’t say it sounds as much like Pantera as a few other bands out *cough*Throwdown*cough* but I can definitely hear it.

    I’m still gunna say He is Legend is the best Pantera following band out there. Maybe that’s just because I’ve seen them 9 times and everytime they blow me away more than the last time.

    Love these bands last two efforts. Will definitely check it out, and as long as it’s not a huge departure from the last albums, I think I’ll love it!
