Band of The Week

Well I've successful missed an entire week of posting, so let me just say, f*cking University assignments.

I think I'll just get straight to the point with these two then.

The bands of the week for the past two weeks are......

Byzantine & Down

Byzantine is a progressive groove metal band from the USA, now broken up, but with 3 albums and a dvd under their belt, these guys are proven legends.

Down, the southern hard rock/metal supergroup with Philip Anselmo on vocals and the rest of the members originating from Crowbar, Corrosion of Comformity, Eyehategod and Pantera, you know its going to be f*cking good.

New Feature for The AMG Blog

A new feature will be added to the Asylum Music Group blog very soon. The new feature titled 'Re-djent' will be posted up on the site once per month and contain a link to an mp3 file available for free download.

What is Re-djent?

Re-djent is performed by the members of the AMG band Deconstructed Surface and comprises of the re-vamping of a song into the style of metal known as djent. In other words "we're gonna Meshuggah up that sh*t".

The first re-djent release date is yet to be announced.

Finally a Band Name

Finally the new AMG band has chosen a name. The progressive djent style band formed by guitartists Christian Geese & Matt Edwards have finally chosen the name for their band with Robert Mc-Cambridge as the drummer.

The bands name is: Deconstructed Surface

Band of The Week

Another djent band this week :). And I've also got some good news, I can finally put an non-band of the week post up today. YAY. Anyway I'll get to that in a bit.

This band is definately worth checking out if you're into Keith Merrow, Meshuggah, Uneven Structure etc etc. I dont really know what to say about him to be honest: instrumental (well except for one song), fucking brilliant (especially seen as hes, what, 16 years old?).

You've got to check it out. The album is free. Great stuff!

Band of The Week

Well it seems that the 3rd post in a row will be the band of the week post. This is why University sucks. Cant get your music done. Although this Saturday coming up the new band on the Asylum blog should have a recording to be posted up. Hopefully.

Anyway this band of the week is a rather rare band. Extremely hard to find any information on. You can however download their albums from good old futuristic metal or as I've just found out, the links are on their myspace page. Anyway they are a Russian band that play a mix of death & djent with some wicked samples in the mix. I'd definately recommend them to any metal fan, especially if you like Meshuggah, Fear Factory and/or Cannibal Corpse.
