Holographic Universe by Scar Symmetry.
Nice and heavy. Pretty symphonic. Some nice guitar melodies and some nice dissonant riffs too. Some good vocals interspersed with death growls, making a pretty interesting mix. Sort of fusion between Melodic Death Metal and Power Metal with a smidgeon of Thrash present. Definitely worth getting. Slightly progressive in places.
obZen by Meshuggah
Super heavy. Utilising down-tuned 8-string guitars, poly-rhythms, oddball time-signatures, angular dissonant riffing, basically it's Meshuggah and that's all you really need to know. As I've said before, it's technical and it's metal. Essentially it's musician's music but some of my friend's who aren't musicians love it. It also confuses non-metal heads, especially Chavs. Blare this out your windows and people will literally shit themselves, although expect to find a crowd of metal-heads moshing outside your house. You should totally get this.

Absolutely amazing. Ranging from medieval/baroque-esque mellow and gentle acoustic driven songs to brutal death metal riffs and Death Growls often differing between throughout some songs. It's Progressive Metal combined with Folk, Blues, Jazz and an organised mish-mash of various genre's. It's Opeth at their very best. There is some stuff in their album Blackwater Park that is better but I this album as a whole is generally better.

Third album by Japaneese wizards, The Black Mages for a third does of Final Fantasy battle music Progressive/Symphonic Metal style. What can I say other than it's nothing short of pure musical genius? This is album just shows what a good arranger Nobuo Uematsu and the rest of the band are. It is so much better than their first two albums and those were brilliant. Pantera-esque in some places with brilliant keyboard work. Definitely worth getting.
Yngwie Malmsteen is bringing out a new album this year in August. If it anything like previous works then you shuold get it, only time will tell.
In this day and age, an era where there are people who actually throw shit at each other, anything, could be possible.
