[@manynukes11]

Blayne randomly talking during the Majesties song lol

[@AlienatedQc]

DAMN that Majesties album... wow! instant time machine

[@marcusaurelius2328]

Phenomenal album!

[@ekse0x]

This album is soo good; the riffs, the layered guitar harmonies all over the place. It's everything that made me love The Jester's Race/Clayman era of In Flames albums. Great pick!

[@AOPRecords]

Thanks for your kind words about the upcoming OUTLAW album.

[@lightff5095]

Artist name!

[@AOPRecords]

@@lightff5095 Outlaw

[@MIKELiscrazy]

Don’t forget that the Primitive Man x Full of Hell collab album came out this month too! VERY worth your time everyone!

[@vegetable_shredder9306]

It was solid, seeing them in 2 weeks!

[@cosmic.tomb.]

I was actually surprised this wasn't mentioned, I've had it on repeat since it came out!

[@DyingVictimsProductions]

Okay mate, I finally got it. Will add the artist info in the future. Just for you!

[@itsybitsyzombie]

Looking forward to the new Spirit Possession, love that style of black metal.

[@andrewjohnson9157]

I love seeing Majesties get so much love!

[@neuroticgothguy]

Seriously can't wait for the new Ne Obliviscaris record, the singles they released are just pure amazing awesomeness, really can't wait

[@TheTennesseeFistMachine]

REZN - Solace, came out Yesterday (march 7th) a must listen for everyone. Mork - Dypet (March 24th) Ice cold black metal from Norway, can't go wrong here.

[@PapaMetal47]

That's a helluva list! Can't wait to hear the new Spirit Possession.

[@liljon2137.]

nice voice clip in the middle of Majesties music sample lol love you Blayne never change

[@lancelazer]

My absolute most anticipated album is coming out in April... The sophomore effort by Fires in the Distance entitled "Air Not Meant For Us". The two tracks they've released so far are ridiculously good and they've just got an incredible sense of melody and ability to create soundscapes wrapped in pure death doom brutality. Also, that Majesties album is delightful and looking forward to checking out Spirit Possession.

[@billcowan5539]

New Majesties is Awesome 🔥🤘🤘

[@DecayingReverie]

Metal Monthly consistantly gives some of the best recommendations in Blayne's picks. Pretty consistently, I listen to and enjoy all five of the picks.

[@hellcrash666]

Samuele Scalise did the artwork for Demonic Assassinatiön, trulty talented guy! Thanks for the mention 🔥

[@oh_poor_damaged_mepatrick1529]

YES! OUTLAW!! Had this pre-ordered forever... can't wait to finally hear it... their past albums are great 👍👍

[@j.j.6327]

I’m still spinning the album from Freeroad that, I think it was you, talked about back in January. Such a fun album.

[@NaldoNidoking]

New Necropanther was pretty good this month. One worth checking out for death thrash fans.

[@lordhuggington9615]

Mr. Blaine, i liked when you use an older album as a comparison ( as you did with Flight here ) as it gives the tube watcher another record to explore. +1 to that thing. cheers!

[@bennyjones7675]

Another great episode and looking forward to ordering a BangerTv shirt next week 🤘

[@ExplorerFam]

Another phenomenal black metal record coming out this Friday ; CIEMRA from Belarus releasing their LP debut “The Tread of Darkness”. These guys were a refreshing reminder of why I was captivated by bands like Dissection, Immortal and Watain back in the day.

[@mike_larsen6244]

Daaaaamn, that's a freakin great album!! Thx for the recommendation! 👍

[@thedanimal2076]

Great recommendation might have missed it but I saw dissection...I mean had to give it a listen

[@soth897]

Sooo glad I checked out this album. I am in your debt for this recommendation🤟

[@reps138]

I've been jamming that spirit possession for a few weeks and it's good af!.. Lots of good BM comin!

[@mstrasser]

Dawn Ray'd, Majesties (Lunar Strain 2.0 and a-ok with that!), and last month's (Feb 24, counts to find out now!) Wretched Fate are all bangers. Dawn Ray'd I knew of via Austin from panopticon but never got into them. The songs from this upcoming are awesome though.

[@Bejorgie6]

Recently saw Spirit Possession and they played a lot of the new material. It was very very good looking forward to listening to it again!

[@matthewmach1515]

Oh my God... So much lol with the Majesties record. I'm also extremely picky with my Melo-Death. My metal buddy from Saudi Arabia sent me the link to it in the middle of the night and I saw that it was "Gothenburg inspired" and went "Jesus Fucking Christ, I'm going to hate this." But then I saw that members of Inexorum and Obsequie were in the band, so I gave it a shot and realized "Thank fuck, this is actually good!" So I'm glad that I can actually say that I liked it if my buddy asks me about it.

[@kernanandrews3374]

Looking forward to Frozen Crown's Call Of The North out on March 10. Thanks for highlighting Firmament, sounds right up my street

[@joshholton7542]

Hell yeah - SPIRIT POSSESSION - been listening to those singles non-stop. “Second Possession” is a fucking awesome track

[@toddwilliamson8557]

Spirit Possession, Hellcrash, Majesties, Outlaw, Firmament, got it...at this point in my life I just let you choose what I buy every month \m/ \m/

[@alejandroaramayorodriguez801]

Nice records go on!

[@martinbrandt1979]

If you like something weird AND catchy: Gabestok from Denmark! Blayne, definitely something for you! What a gem coming up the 24th of March. Other top releases March 2023 for me: Death Engine, Necropanther, Nemesis Sopor, Djunah, Majesties, Qwälen, Afsky, Dawn Ray'd, Ne Obliviscaris, Rotten Sound, Black Sea Of Trees and Aara. Strong month overall!

[@SonicBroham]

ooo didn't know about new Afsky, thanks!

[@THRASHORBETHRASHED851]

Preordered Hellkrsah and Firnament great stuff

[@jamesangel4366]

Great picks.. also Kommand, March 31 Amethyst, today

[@jamesangel4366]

Good picks!

[@jamesangel4366]

@jamesangel thanks bud

[@brad_wilson]

Have been obsessed with Carcinogenesis from Viscera. Melodic groovy deathcore. Just came out on the 3rd, I think.

[@greggharmston8992]

Great shout on the Majesties record, nice and heavy on the melo and the guitar sound is lush 👌 Edit: I have been listening to this album every day and I think it might have some of the best metal riffs I have ever heard. Just absolutely unreal.

[@serialmiller1987]

majesties is a great album! I have to show some love to the Quebec tech death band Ignominy and their album Imminent Collapse on IMHO the most consistent metal label, Transcending Obscurity.

[@apoplexiamusic]

no mention of Entheos's album released on the 3rd?! no mention of Periphery's new one releasing on the 10th?!!

[@ronniebby3148]

Haven't seen it here yet but AFSKY and the "In one hundred years album" translated. Been having the single on repeat. I have an itchy feeling there is another album not mentioned here that's coming out

[@zarucarsha]

Fluisteraars have an EP this Friday too.

[@ronniebby3148]

@@zarucarsha daaaaamn, you're right. So happy they re pressed their back catalogue. Just got their last two records and want more of the others.

[@CosmicMetallMusic9919]

Last Spirit Possesson was perfect!

[@dogfrog9543]

Nice Mr Torgue mouth solo impression 🤘

[@careful__Icarus]

Righteous recap as always. Blayne always making my wallet lighter monthly. Just a short closeup on that Jazz bass,or is it a Precision can't tell too far away, would be most excellent. Cheers

[@michaelmartinez7158]

MAJESTIES!

[@matthewetter7776]

My favorite release from march has been betrayal by necropanther. It’s a great spin.

[@MrChrisStingray]

Dying Victims Productions needs their own list each month.

[@marcusaurelius2328]

Surprised fellow Canadians Gatekeeper (Epic Heavy Metal) didn't get a mention. Preview tracks are excellent. Also a new one coming from Lamp of Murmuur at the end of the month which was mentioned, but worth highlighting.

[@ericpandersen]

New Gatekeeper tracks do sound good. I wish that vinyl wasn't $20 shipping to U.S. or I would have grabbed one. I get it though. Shipping ain't cheap. Still gonna listen and support. Might grab it later after some beers. 🤷‍♂️

[@patfix]

That Hellcrash album cover sure is something.

[@DrTabarnak]

I love when Metal Monthlys have just smackers throughout the video.

[@andrewkuykendall4166]

Looking forward to the new Ne Obliviscaris and Hellish Form

[@MrNiceguyofficial]

Cant wait to get blasted in the face 😂 still got that spirit possesion song on my BM playlist from last time

[@themightydecibel-heavymeta7130]

For variety (heh, heh), I suggest that the following be checked out: CRIME SCENE - Dark Tidings (metal punk), CONSUMED - War Business (crust punk) and M.V-11 - 6 Songs (hardcore punk).

[@andrewpequita6569]

Nice , the last Flight album is a personal favorite of min. So fucking good

[@Alapont86]

If you like NWOBHM sound, at the end of March Witchtower release their fourth album "Voyeur" by Unsilent Tombs Records.

[@newstyle8121]

Witchtower Rules!!!

[@lonewolf1843]

I can't believe the 2 I'm most psyched about this month weren't mentioned... NIGHT DEMON and ROTTEN SOUND.

[@ericpandersen]

Banger has gotta have Night Demon in mind. I imagine it will get a review, possibly from Sarah. Though I do remember Blayne and Sarah saying they were not as into them on one of those tier podcasts. I'm psyched for new Night Demon, either way! Decibel gave it a solid review. 🤘

[@joeln901]

Night Demon rules. Can't wait to see them and Haunt, live.

[@lonewolf1843]

@@joeln901 See'n them with SATAN in Grand Rapids!

[@Leave_The_Hall_69]

Isnt Night Demon that band that sounds like an Open Mic night Danzig?

[@ericpandersen]

@@Leave_The_Hall_69 wut. I don't get much Danzig from Night Demon vocally or musically.

[@cons.records]

DVP is consistent as hell, one of my favourite labels as well. Ordered many a time from their webshop too and always gets to Canada fast and smooth

[@jasonmorman5722]

My favorite is the new Brutality 🤘🏻👌🏼

[@jasonmorman5722]

Although it's not February 😂

[@danielreamer8382]

I’m looking forward to the new Mork album and the new Thron album

[@darrenbooker8144]

Gorod have just realesed their new album, the single was sick, gonna listen now🎉🎉

[@solutionblogs4free366]

Ffinaly i thought blaine died or something thank god we have u back

[@rickpattson7341]

'ZULU - A New Tomorrow' came out some days ago DRAIN's new album will come in May, but they've already released some nice songs and JAPANISCHE KAMPFHÖRSPIELE just released 'PRAKTIKUM BEI T​Ö​NNIES': the first single from forthcoming album BLASKAPELLE BÜRGERMEISTER BRATWURST BIER GESCHENKEKORB BIBELSTELLE BUMSKABINE BIENENSTERBEN VÖLKERMORD

[@karkir-joharkarntkristkark9507]

Batushka - Maria is a really good album. Witchthroat Serpent - Trove of Oddities at the Devil's Driveway (quality stoner doom). Vredensdal - Sonic Devotion To Darkness (Their album made in 2020, The Tyrant Shade, is creme de la creme Norwege. Pure filth!!). Marianas Rest - Auer Aara - Triade III: Nyx Old Forest - Sutwyke Blaze of Sorrow - Vultus Fati Tilintetgjort - In Death I Shall Arise (Wow, I thought this month was going to be average compared to february. Five high quality albums at the end of the month, plus all the releases highlighted by Bangertv, makes it a really enjoyable month for Black metal fans)

[@Antibodylabel]

HELLCRASH hell yeah

[@TPJN777]

Dodheimsgard next month is all that's on my mind

[@TheinvisibleorangeMetal]

Not sure if you have seen Spirit Possession live, but the guitar player uses a weird technique not sure what it's called, and it looks as weird as the sound it produces. Pretty cool to see them live if you get the chance.

[@vikingraven4156]

Check out lamp of murmuur

[@zaqydafa9610]

You don't mention Kruelty album is beyond me, but i forgive you because you mention Spirit of Possession and Majesties.

[@jmalinjapan7786]

Kruelty have an album out? Will be searching that one out.

[@durnheim5746]

No mention of Ne Obliviscaris? They've become a pretty important band in progressive metal circles. Hope Dylan reviews that one!

[@jasonmacqueen1017]

Here to save the day and tell you other albums Blayne missed ( I mean there are to many releases this month).... Afsky- om hundrede ar (black metal) Telos- Delude (blackend mathcore?) Fange- Privation (harsher Author and Punisher meets godflesh) Lamp of Murmmor - Saturnian Bloodstorm (Immortal worship black metal)

[@ulver0909]

Frozen Crown's new album comes out on the 10th. Fucking amped for that.

[@angelodimmu3166]

Dont forget the return of Keep of Kalessin

I wanna know how Falloutboy got mentioned yet no mention of Invent Animate's amazing album Heavener.

Majesties: Meloblack. Its a thing. Think shylmagoghnar, eternal tears of sorrow, dark oath…

[@speshulk1207]

Ne Obliviscaris this month. My body is ready.

[@dasbeard6667]

Kruelty - Untopia (3/17) Rotten Sound - Apocalypse (3/31)

[@breschdlengsgselz]

is that a black sun used as a censor-sticker?

[@metalassassin9537]

There should be a mount Rushmore of "doom" with Vincent Verkay, Gary Griffith, Dave Chandler, and Wino. And if they build a doom hall of Fame these should be the first inductees and if they are not you are lying to yourself!🙂

[@seansensei10]

Is that a Black Sun on the Hellcrash album cover?

Wow that Hellcrash album cover is something 😅

Is it possible to sound more like Cronos than the lead singer of Hellcrash?

[@animangiac6312]

If Someone finds out the artist for hellcrash, do let Us know. Pls, tnx.

This month is absolutely insane and I'm going to have a lot of catching up to do in April because I only listen to Celtic inspired music in March. Which means I'm looking forward to the new Cruachan at the end of the month.

[@h3llonearf697]

Wheres goatmoon??

[@XlouietheflyX]

Bong Coffin album is now out

[@wrbrown571]

Ne Obliviscaris "Exul" is slated to come out on March 24th. Not even a mention? 😕 Really? I guess they'll show up in bands we missed this year, again, just like when "Urn" came out in 2017.

[@dannyscaglione6233]

Equus might be the best song I've heard in the past 3-4 years.

[@australiacomicsedge2697]

August burns reds is a Christian metal band if anyone did not know that

[@user-ft4jo8ev1v]

So weird that Blayne would say that Majesties production sounds underground black metal, I just thought it sounded very modern and clean, especially with those digital drums

[@joeyhardy3981]

I've noticed to be black metal you have to record your vocals in a bathroom, down a sewege drain, in a cave...

[@salva0922]

You forgot Babymetal is also releasing an album in March 24th! And you all forgot to review Lovebites new album. You should give Japanese metal a chance
