Good tunes

I'm going to list some songs I think are really neat. I'll include a little description of each. They're all very different from one another so don't let one form your whole opinion.

The Forsaken - Beyond Redemption (2012)
A Swedish death/thrash band that released a couple of albums in the early 00's, then just vanished, everyone thought they were done, however 9 years later, they came back out of nowhere and released a fucking inferno of an album, and this track kicks it off. Beautiful brutality, even if it's technically just more At the Gates worship.




Intervals - Epiphany (2012)
This is a really beautiful instrumental "Djent" tune. If you don't know what Djent is, it's a relatively new sound characterized by weird time signatures and syncopated rhythms, it's hard to explain if you don't know who Periphery or Meshuggah are, just have to listen to check it out.



Ram Zet - Queen (2002)
A song/album/video about schizophrenia with the music to match.  There's so much going on here, metal, violins, angelic female singing, weird electronics. Neat as fuck.



Deftones - Drive (2006)
An awesome cover of an 80's song with Deftones unique atmosphere.




Disbelief - Continue (From this Point) (2005)
A really dense, claustrophobic "melodic" song from a German band who usually specializes in grimy nihilistic sludge.



Textures - Awake (2008)
Last but not least, this really cool, dreamy song from Dutch band Textures.
