You know I really enjoyed Burn My Eyes thanks to their drummer Chris Kontos. But I said weird cause the sang parts maybe, don't very like them. Rob, double kick, loud guitars are here for sure, The Blackening is worked and the band evolved since their debuts but something wrong IMO. It's not as violent as I was hoping.

Hey fellas...

New Pagan's Mind is a bit of a letdown, but new Benighted delivers.

Let's all hope the members of Decapitated pull through, but reports are that Vitek is in a coma with no signs of improvement after this week's tour bush crash.

Actually Decapitated signed with Nuclear Blast a week or so after Vitek's death so it appears they're going to forge ahead in his memory. We'll see if Covan makes a recovery. Apparently he is doing better.

The new Severe Torture is a good spin. Aside from that I've discovered bands like Vomitron (one man project out of Massachusetts) and rediscovered old favorites like Quo Vadis and Martyr. I'll tell you, the Montreal metal scene is one of the best in the world.

I saw Lamb of God and Killswitch Engage last night. It was a sweet show. The only thing was the lights went off during Lamb of God and they stopped playing in the middle of the song and waited to try to get them fixed. They said they weren't going to come back on any time soon so they continued to play with just the house lights and no spots. They were still amazing but it would have been cooler with the lights on.

Heaven Shall Burn album- Iconoclast is great! amazing album! loving it :D

Na i meant for gays lol. Emo is rubbish and shouldnt be mixed with metal at all. :p

Zomfg! I'm listening to alot of Coheed & Cambria, InMe and Paramore atm.

I'm expanding into electronic and more poppy/emo rock music from my metal roots.

I can't wait for Slayer's next album, which I read is to be their LAST! :o

Also Bodom's new album sounds to be quite good with Tie My Rope being kick-ass, although I've gone off the band quite a bit now.

This month, Alestorm's new album "Captain Morgan's Revenge" is out, and I suggest all folk/battle metal fans out there grab a copy.

I heard Burn My Eyes all the way through for the first time today, ****ing, why didn't I sooner! XD - MH FTW.

Damm been ages since last updated this topic, need it at the top guys :D Anyways what albums are everyone looking forward to this year?

To name a couple i'm looking forward to right off the top of my head:

Mercenary's new one titled "Architect of Lies". Since they're one of my favorites.

I'm also eager to hear Kalmah's new stuff that they've been recording recently.

Also Bodom's new album sounds to be quite good with Tie My Rope being kick-ass, although I've gone off the band quite a bit now.

Eh. That song isn't very good in my opinion.

This month, Alestorm's new album "Captain Morgan's Revenge" is out, and I suggest all folk/battle metal fans out there grab a copy.

Pssh. Alestorm is PIRATE METAL. Get it right.

Lol. XP

Seeing as how Kamelot, Behemoth, and Dimmu Borgir had all had recent releases, I can't think of anything I'm really anticipating as of now.

I'm waiting to see if Mushroomhead and Slipknot are going to release anything, though.

Ididn't even know Meshuggah was coming out with a new album. Definitely looking forward to that. Also the new Protest the Hero sounds promising. And I'm gonna have to say Metallica's new album, as bad as these guys were on their last effort I still hold a place in my heart for them. Oh, and I'm looking forward to some release by Misery Signals.

I'm waiting to see if Mushroomhead and Slipknot are going to release anything, though.

rumor has it Slipknot is currently working on a new album to be released late spring or early summer. that excites me :D

I have a coworker who is friends w/ mushroomhead. i'll ask her if theyre recording or something.

Therion needs to release their next album. Or someone needs to invent a time machine.

I remember hearing (I think it was on Wikipedia) that Johnsson said the next album will follow in the style of Gothic Kabbalah's finale track "Adulruna Rediviva."

I know better than to think they're releasing a whole album full of 14-minute epics of awesomeness, but still...DO WANT.

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
