New Atomikylä! Stoked to hear the new record will be available at Roadburn!
From Svart Records' FB:
The dark psychedelic underground in Tampere, Finland is one of the most vividly creative musical collectives in the scene on the planet today, with such bands as Oranssi Pazuzu and Dark Buddha Rising both considered masters of the uncharted territory in metal. Sprouting from the confines of the joint rehearsal space Wastement comes Atomikylä, a psychic joining of forces of members from both bands. Atomikylä is liberation through sound. It is the nightside of the collective unconscious and a means of escape from the confines of norm and comfort. Smashing walls with a wall of sound, Atomikylä are set to release their second album, Keräily, through Svart Records. Atomikylä took their name ("nuclear village") from a village of abandoned barracks in Tampere. The barracks were originally used to house workers constructing a nuclear power plant in the '80s, after which they were dragged to the roadside in suburban Tampere and abandoned. Populated for years by drunks and junkies, the small shunned village was demolished a few years ago. The band Atomikylä dwells in a similar mental setting - radiant but lowly, dangerous and unpredictable, barred from normal life. The record will be released on April 29th, but copies will be available from the band & the Svart merch stand at Roadburn Festival this week!

Finally got round to checking out the new Babymetal, and it's a lot more like what I was expecting from the first album, which is good. Still not amazing as so many people make them out to be, but there's some genuinely good material on here, plus it's a lot more consistent than their first release in my opinion.
Nothing stands out as being overly annoying like some of the material on their first release, and I'd argue that some of the songs are more towards the metal side of things, even if it a lot of it does fall towards the metalcore end of things. With the first album I was confused by how popular they'd become but with this, they're showing some actual potential.

Yeah, that's one hell of an album! I can listen to it five times in a row without getting bored of that song.

Slight nitpick - tired of underground labels talking about how their band/scene/etc. is one of the most significant on the planet, haha. I've seen labels lately talk about artists who've sold 100 copies and never left Bandcamp as 'one of the most significant projects in all of electronic music' or something like this.
Maybe I've said something like it myself, but I hope not. That hyperbole goes a little bit far.

I get what you mean, I think. Labels plastering their artist with unfounded superlatives, and then, when you listen, it ends up being not that special as the words they were assigned. In this case though, I think it rings true. For me, the Wastement collective is doing some of the most interesting things in underground music right now.

The Zenith Passage is good, though maybe a bit formulaic. I'll have another listen next week when I'm not in such a grumpy dismissive mood.
Been giving Sinmara "Aphotic Womb" another go recently. I didn't really get it first time round, but it's grown on me.
