Sh*t That Comes Out Today: March 3, 2015
Hi MetalSucks reader! Welcome back to Shit That Comes Out Today, your satanic bible of this week’s heavy new releases.

Sannhet
Revisionist (The Flenser)
On a playlist with: Inter Arma, Woe, Altar Of Plagues
Listen Revisionist full stream (here)
In the world of instrumental post-whatever, it’s harder to capture your mind “musically.” Yes, you get progressive licks, interesting song structures, and plenty of moody discordance. But where are moving bits? What exactly is left to take over the duty of a vocalist who is supposed to draw you in? Revisionist is one of those rare instrumental albums that sings to you without ever peeping a word!

Death Engine
Mud (Throatruiner)
On a playlist with: Plebeian Grandstand, As We Draw, Alpinist
Listen Mud full stream (here)
Noise is necessary. We metal fans are not strangers to recognizing beauty in chaos. What about beauty in Mud? Well, it’s there, in typical Throatruiner form: fast, fuzzy, French, and furious. Death Engine churns up miles and miles of pantomime and noise — take the drive, it’s well worth it! But don’t forget your Tylenol and a cold, wet rag.
·
Imperial Triumphant
Abyssal Gods (Code 666)
On a playlist with: Hate Eternal, Gorguts, Cephalic Carnage
Listen “Dead Heaven” (here)
If you’re looking for even more noise, turn to Imperial Triumphant! Abyssal Gods edges on being straight-up cacophonous, but not so close that you get completely lost. Actually, it gives you the head-spins and a bunch of other psychosomatic effects, so dig in and don’t forget to schedule an appointment with a shrink!
·
Sabertooth Zombie
Human Performance IV (Twelve Gauge)
On a playlist with: No Sir, Swamp Thing, Mind Eraser
Listen “The Headache” and “Gardens Of Loss” (here)
Y’all each have a local metal band which kind of just sells itself, right? With a name like Sabertooth Zombie, how hard could it be for these guys? Notwithstanding, you’re gonna find tons of hyper-punk on Human Performance IV: punchy vocals, punchy riffs, punchy beats. I bet these guys play a killer live show (chime in if you’ve managed to catch them at some point).
·
Kjeld
Skym (Hammerheart)
On a playlist with: Carach Angren, The Crown, Goatwhore
Listen Skym full stream (here)
In STCOT last week there was a blurb about Carach Angren — a bunch of dudes who went for the non-post approach in black metal. Expect much of the same from Kjeld, just less evil but much sharper. In fact, both of these bands go hand-in-hand in reminding us that being traditional can still be modern (and heavy) as fuck. Listen to them back-to-back!
·
Tähtiportti
Tähtiportti (Svart)
On a playlist with: The Algorithm’s demented Finnish cousin
Listen Tähtiportti full stream (here)
Whether this counts as metal is entirely up to you. And that’s kind of the point — this heavy/dark electronic music, where does it go? How about into your brain, for starters! After getting an earful from the other five bands on this list, you’re going to need to decompress. Or maybe re-compress? Tähtiportti might reprogram your brain. Danger.
