I've been slowly creeping my way back into metal after listening to the Persona 5 soundtrack (which finally got put on Spotify at the end of last year or the beginning of this year) and the few indie/alternative bands I like for the better part of this year. I've got a ton of catching up to do, but I've been chipping away at it. I've been getting re-acquainted with my symphonic stuff, primarily Epica and Leaves' Eyes.
I didn't even know that Anette Olzon had a new album out. I'll probably check that one out tomorrow. I heard a song or two from it earlier today and was really impressed.
Sabaton's been my go-to for the last week or so. They're always good when I want to hear some metal but can't settle on a band/album. I've now listened to all of their studio albums from
Carolus Rex onwards. I friggin' love these guys. They're so good.
