I had heard of the Texas based Prog Metal band Thought Chamber some time ago but snubbed my nose after seeing the term “supergroup” on their site’s bio. Prog Metal pieced together like a boy band? What?? I know, I know..how very Elitist of me. But the surge of metal in recent years has been a double edged sword that has given us some amazing bands from across the globe as well as several sub par wannabes. A girl can’t be too picky about her Metal.
A few days ago I came across a track from their album, Angular Perceptions, and was blown away. This stuff is phenomenal! Their brand of melodic prog deserves notice and recognition.
Vocalist Ted Leanord will, at times, channel Journey’s Steve Perry but not in the same ridiculous fashion as Dream Theater’s James LaBrie. Leanord might bring back memories of Perry pumping his fist to the beat but has a sound that is all his own.
Thus far, my favorite track from the album would be Transmigration of Souls. Have a listen and let me know what you think!
Girls are a rare find in the world of Metal. Especially GOOD metal.
Let’s hear it for 3 groups with chicks leading the way and turning heads.
Lacuna Coil - Our Truth
In This Moment - Prayers
Walls Of Jericho - No Saving Me
Today’s installment includes both mellow metal and rock your face.
Enjoy.
Katatonia- Unfurl (one of my favorite songs of all time)
Paradise Lost- Erased
Metallica :: Mercyful Fate Cover
Alice Cooper, Rob Zombie, Slash :: School’s Out
Norwegian black metal band Immortal have been parodied all over the internet. You may recognize their painted faces from sites listing The 10 Most Ridiculous Black Metal Pictures. There was also a wave of photoshopped images poking fun at them:
All of this has helped entertain my idle mind in the past, but this video that I found on Youtube takes the cake!!
Immortal vs. Benny Hill
