The New Music Thread : The Gateway Edition

The brand new "Live on Tour!" live album from Aussie alternative metallers Thornhill hit the streets yesterday.

NSW-based alt-rockers Sick Puppies have a new album coming out next year, Wave the Bull. I haven't really explored this band apart from their nu metal debut Welcome to the Real World, but when I stumbled upon their new comeback single, I gave it some listening and thought "Wow... That sounds as heavy and metallic as their debut!" If the rest of their upcoming album is like this, it might just be one f***ing h*ll of a strong comeback release.

Japanese alternative metallers Dir en Grey have a brand new live video coming out this month called "Tour22-23 Phalaris" which was recorded across multiple shows during 2022/23. I quite liked their 2008 album "Uroboros" so I might give this one a sneaky run at some point,
