Do I spend too much time watching birds these days? Not enough time? …Yes.

• We’ll start with Year of No Light because I know some of our 9C folks are excited about this news. The French post-metal crew are releasing Les Maîtres Fous on May 23rd through Pelagic Records and you can hear an excerpt from that now.
• I’m in a desert rock mood so let’s check out what Sleeping Mountain have for us next. Their new single “Medusa” can be heard here, with their self-titled album out on June 14th.
• I’m late with this one but… whatever. Sodom have a new album arriving on June 27th through SPV Recordings titled The Arsonist and the first taste of that is in the form of “Trigger Discipline”.
• More thrash that’s a couple of days old. Nefarious are releasing their debut album, Addicted To Power, on July 18th through Relentless “Metal” Records. A video for “One Nation Enslaved” can be seen here.
• Lastly, bestly, Cryptopsy announced a new album, An Insatiable Violence, will be out on June 20th through Season of Mist. Tuesday ends with the video for “Until There’s Nothing Left”. Have at it.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
