This months list was another fine cross-sectional representation of The Horde I thought. Particular highlights for me were Brujeria, Pestilence, Gorement, Bloodbath, Cannibal Corpse, Nile, Dead Congregation and Devourment.
The technical stuff didn't work too well for me. First Fragment are an excitable bunch aren't they? Neo-Classical metal and technical death metal are two genre tags that didn't fill me with much hope but I lasted until the funky bass slapping section and then got the hell out of there. At near 18 minutes I would need a power-nap after that.
