Orange Mathematics

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant.

After listening to this song from beginning to end with his eyes closed, my son (6yo) said... first I was flying in outer space in a monster truck blasting out fire. then i was floating in space with a cat and we were both in space suits. and then i was fighting a giant robot and it turned into 80 more giant robots. but then my fist grew super big and i punched the giant one in the face and it died. music of exceptional creativity, color and virtuosity. :-)

The Indonesian act Kekal leaves no genre unturned, colliding black metal with industrial music with melodic post-rock on this stunning LP.

Shrines of Paralysis
by Ulcerate
New Zealand technical death outfit Ulcerate have often been praised for their innovative genre approach—but six albums into their discography, there's even greater strength in their consistency.

Blinding, cinematic black metal with rich layers of synth make for an album sweeping in scope and punishing on impact.
