Gimme Metal's Top Tracks of the Week

BAEST, TOWER HILL Among Gimme Metal's Top Tracks of the Week

BAEST

Gimme Metal Program Director Brian Turner delivers the week's top 5 office buzz-worthy tracks.

BAEST – Genesis

Like Gatecreeper, Baest uphold the principles of great death metal, while streamlining it up with some simplistic rhythm patterns, thuggy swinging riffs that are catchy as hell, and a tremendous lead singer. Feral and buzzing yet exuding positive forces of energy and tremendous fandom for their historical signposts, Baest is one to be watched.

TOWER HILL – The Claw Is the Law

Seemingly a nod to rampant street imbibing of White Claw, and why not? Tower Hill lift you out of your atmospheric black metal-blasting dungeon, slap your ass on a (big maned) horse, and carry you off into a high-NRG gallop right into a White Claw waterfall that's also raining copies of The Number of the Beast on your head as your ride through. When you come out, Ronnie James' hologram offers you a towel. AND MORE WHITE CLAW.

NORDGEIST – Revenge

Icy and majestic black metal soundings from a Russian woman only known as 'T', clearly with a penchant for capturing her surroundings with a Nordic-referential flair.

OMINOUS RUIN – Attuned To the Chasm

With whirring, robotic drums literally unscrewing your head from your neck and dizzying tech-solos tracking along in indecipherable time signatures, the Northern California combo Ominious Ruin don't let up for a second. Ghastly vocals, relentless instrumental onslaught is what you get here on the newly released Willowtip LP 'Amidst Voices That Echo In Stone': it's a brutally controlled, highly-disciplined sonic spasm.

PLAGUE WEAVER – Lay Fire

Formerly founded as a solo project of Radoslaw “RM” Murawski in 2018, the addition of vocalist JC now takes this Ontario black metal project into vicious new heights. 'Ascendant Blasphemy' is the full length result, an atmosphere-laden yet blood-soaked exploration of sonic chasms from which there are no return.
