Ossia - Devil's Dance (2019)

Ossia's Devil's Dance, released by Blackest Ever Black, is a very nice and finely crafted hybrid of noise, dark ambient and dub techno (better would be to describe each tracks but, hey, listen to the album!). There are many subtleties and a great attention to details so even the less instantly memorable tracks are in fact also very good. I recommend not only you listen to it but also do it with headphones. This one will be rightly placed in my soon to come list of the best industrial/electronic music for 2019.

I give it in alphabetical order.

Blood Incantation - Hidden History of the Human Race (2019)

Like with Blood Incantation first album, it took me some time to get how good is Hidden History of the Human Race. You don't catch all the subtleties at first listen. It's rooted in old school death metal, reminding Morbid Angel at its most cosmic, but also it's different, more technical but even more more progressive. And whether they do the brutal stuff or the more "weird spacey" parts, they excel. Highly recommended, this one will naturally sit in good place among my soon to come "best death metal of 2019" list.

Guitar Wolf - Love & Jett (2019)

To make it quick, if you like garage rock played with frenzy and everything in the red (vocals in japanese included), then Guitar Wolf is just the band you need, they do that, only that, and they do it well. That's what they do again on their twelth album Love & Jett, and that's cool.

Hide - Hell is Here (2019)

Hell is Here, Hide's second album is an excellent industrial / power electronics piece that will fit perfectly in my list of best industrial music released in 2019. The duo went more abrasive and angry than on the first album and the vocals are also very good and emotional, with a very "real" feel of anger.

Incinerated / Landfill - Split 7'' EP (2019)

Let's start 2020 like we ended 2019 : with some blastbeats! On the menu this nice split (released by Psychocontrol records) between Incinerated and Landfill. Ten minutes of really good grind/death. Both bands, each in its own way, sounds a bit like Repulsion but pushed to more extreme. I really enjoy it and recommended it.
