1. Introduction

Welcome back to my channel, where I share my favorite metal recommendations of the week. In this week's metal Monday, I have five new releases to talk about, including three albums and two EPs. So, let's dive right in and see what these bands have to offer!

2. Sulfur Aon - Seven Crowns and Seven Seals

First up on the list is Sulfur Aon's fourth studio album, "Seven Crowns and Seven Seals." This German blackened death metal band's work revolves around the ancient ones of Lovecraftian lore. If you're a fan of HP Lovecraft and atmospheric, heavy, and theatrical blackened death metal, this album is a must-listen. The artwork alone is incredible, and the entire album transports you to a dark and menacing journey. With monumental riffs, guttural vocals, blast beats, and a dense atmosphere, this record captures the essence of Lovecraft's stories. It also incorporates hypnotic melodies, gentle synths, and Gothic elements, making it a fantastic blend of brutality and beauty. If you enjoy bands like Behemoth, Emperor, and Dissection, make sure not to miss this album.

3. Gravestone - Hollow be thy Grave

Next, we have the Swedish old school death metal band Gravestone with their second studio album, "Hollow be thy Grave." This record is a thrilling combination of blistering rage, demonic vocals, and layered riffage. With elements of punk and thrash, Gravestone delivers a stomping and ferocious album that takes no prisoners. While incorporating horror-themed elements, the band unleashes an onslaught of aggressive and unrelenting death metal. Fans of bands like Entombed, Dismember, and Carnage will find themselves headbanging to this record. Standout tracks include "Hunt of the Carcass," "Back Dragged Through the Woods," "Cannibal Curse," and "Lord of the Lash."

4. Mors SAA - Origin of Fire

Moving on, we have the Finnish melodic death thrash metal band Mors SAA and their fifth studio album, "Origin of Fire." Explosive is the word that describes this record best, with killer riffs, addictive hooks, and an aggressive attitude. The album incorporates subtle electronics, adding an extra atmospheric layer to the already blistering blast beats. The guitar work soars, and the overall sound is devastating. This album appeals to fans of Finnish melodic death metal with a touch of thrash. If you enjoy bands like Words of Farewell, At The Gates, Lamb of God, and Gojira, "Origin of Fire" will surely satisfy your hunger for heavy metal. Standout tracks include "Fire Walk with Me," "The Blackout," and "Regenerator."

5. Overthrow - Ascension of the Intuned

Now, let's talk about the first of the two EPs on this list, Overthrow's "Ascension of the Intuned." This blackened death metal EP delivers a short but devastating experience. With a sprinkle of thrash, this record's four tracks span 18 minutes and feature chunky death metal riffage that rips you apart from the moment it begins. Overthrow shows no mercy with their ferocious and groovy stomps, creating an edgy and brutal atmosphere. For fans of Death, Slayer, and Emperor, this EP is a must-listen. Don't be deceived by its length; it packs a powerful punch.

6. As the Sun Falls - Where the Silence Rains

Lastly, we have the Finnish melodic death metal band As the Sun Falls and their EP "Where the Silence Rains." This three-track EP is a masterpiece of dense atmosphere and devastating melodic death metal riffage. With brutal tones and captivating solos, As the Sun Falls creates a cinematic and melancholic experience. The EP incorporates folk and progressive elements, along with acoustic moments. It paints a dark and meandering picture, reminiscent of the Finnish northern nature and culture. Fans of bands like Insomnium, Amorphis, and Omnium Gatherum will find themselves captivated by this EP. Standout tracks include "Fire Walk with Me," "The Blackout," and "Regenerator."
