Cluain Tarb - Mael Mordha
Eclectic folk metal.
A little too similar to other bands on occasion.
Contradictions Collapse - Meshuggah

Well-executed, and not over-the-top.
Bland and samey.

Lots of bangers
Nothing specific
The World Needs A Hero - Megadeth
Heavy Metal - 2001
United Abominations - Megadeth

Some songs seem very much filler material and a lot of the political lyrics don't fit well at all
Under The Moonspell - Moonspell
Death Metal - 1996
