New Skeletonwitch, and I must say, I'm impressed. It's not quite Beyond the Permafrost but it's an improvement on Breathing the Fire. Best tracks for me are "Cleaver of Souls" and "This Horrifying Force (Desire to Kill)".
 
Although, I don't think the new drummer is as good as Derrick Nau.
 
What do you guys think?

There are plenty of great riffs and the vocals are good as usual... but something about their production always turns me off of them. I can't quite explain it.

Production on this album is the best yet, and by that I mean it's the worst yet. Breathing the Fire was waaaay to clean for my liking. As was Beyond the Permafrost but this album is a lot rawer (to an extent) and grittier.

If you get a chance to go see this band then get your ass Down to the nearest venue, well worth it.

Looking forward to hearing the new album.

I really Wish I could but there's a few problems:
 
1. I live in New Zealand, no good bands ever come here.
 
2. The town I live in has about 300-400 people in which I am the only metalhead
 
3. It's a 2 and a half hour drive to get to a city where a band might play, aand even then they would probably only play Auckland (NZ's biggest city) which is right at the other End of the country.
 
But I've heard great things about their live show. One day when I get some money I'll be going to see them when/if they play a festival like Wacken or Bloodstock.

Skeletonwitch tours endlessly, I Saw em live in April in St.Louis and was about to go see em last week in Chicago with Kvelertak but sadly my ride fell through at the last minute... woulda been a sweet fuckin show to see though. I've heard Kvelertak does an amazing live performance.
haven't listened to much of their new album, I'm not that big of a fan to be honest but they're badass live. I almost passed out 3/4 of the way through their set.

Yeah, I know they played Bloodstock this year but I'm still in school (only 5 days left though and I'm done for good) so I couldn't afford to go.
 
Skeletonwitch blew me away from first listen. I ordered Beyond the Permafrost off amazon.com, and from the first second of that album till the last I remained motionless. I've heard from a few people like that, I think they're one of those bands that either click with you or they don't
