2007 - a banner year thus far!

[DoomsdayZach]

The new one is the only one I can stand. The old stuff is shit.

Actually the first two or three were some quite ace death metal.

I didn't like it. I'm a symphonic therion fan I guess

 

[DoomsdayZach]

How do you not like theli or vovin?

 

[Rycher]

I'll add:

Novembers Doom - The Novella Reservoir

Also love most of what everyone else listed. Ha.

Best Therion albums imho

 

[Taliwakker]

Most of the releases this year have been shit...or not as good as i would have hoped for.

SyX-Paradise Lost
Devin Townsend-Ziltoid
have been the pick of the bunch

Dream Theater
Kamelot
Pain of Salvation
Sonata Arctica
Megadeth
Redemption
Thought Chamber

all failed me

Slavior
Anberlin
Blackfield
Porcupine Tree
Rose Kemp
Novembres Doom
Susperia

all had enough good songs on their albums to keep me interested.

Therion suck...all eras

and there are a whole bunch of other bands that have released cds of pure suckage that i won't bother mentioning.

 

[Kenneth R.]

this man gets a stamp of approval. ^

 

[Phanto]

I don't think I've heard the new Blackfield.. how is it?

 

[ABQShredHead]

Surprised nobody mentioned the upcoming Circus Maximus release...

 

[Liquid Tension]

Suspyre - A Great Divide
Magic Pie - Circus of Life
Empyrios - ...And the rest is Silence
Thought Chamber - Angular Perceptions
Aghora - Formless
Bokor - Anomia1
To-mera - Transcendental
Mindflow -Mind over Body
Beardfish - Sleeping in Traffic
Diablo Swing Orchestra - The Butcher's Ballroom
Marty Friedman - Loudspeaker
Canvas Solaris - Cortical Tectonics
Isis -
Agalloch - Ashes Against the Grain

Two that were major disappointments.....

Pain of Salvation - Scarsick
Disillusion - Gloria

Looking forward to...

Slough Feg
Riverside
Circus Maximus

 

[TuoDrable]

Though, Porcupine Tree is worth it imo. Fear of a blank Planet is nothing new in progrock, but for people like me, very good album.

Something that surprised me again: Thurisaz (yeah, the Belgian one)
New Sonata Arctica
Paid in Full sounded so gay...

The year started very good with Moonsorrow's new release... man, that album was awesome!

What's up with Iced Earth? Something new, or back to the Dark Saga times?

 

[Kenneth R.]

Surprised nobody mentioned the upcoming Circus Maximus release...

should be good but I won't judge till I hear it

 

[Burnout]

Upcoming are many many more. If Riverside's new Single/EP is anything like Rapid Eye Movement, then their third album is going to be amazing. I could not possibly care less about Dream Theater, and this is the first time that Kamelot and Sonata Arctica both disappoint. All the powermetal shit is exactly that.

I agree on the Riverside comment, I love that single. I haven't heard the new Kamelot or Sonata Arctica discs, but I'm pretty impressed with the new Manticora album, have you heard it?

Also, The Absence has a new album called Riders of the Plague out in August.

 

[Fakerofdeath]

I can't believe no one has mentioned Nocturnal Rites' new album, the 8th Sin. And on the Therion subject, everything from Vovin and onward is good, everything before uke:

 

[Phanto]

I can't believe no one has mentioned Nocturnal Rites' new album, the 8th Sin.

I can believe it, very much.

 

[Taliwakker]

i kind of mentioned the new Nocturnal Rites in this statement

and there are a whole bunch of other bands that have released cds of pure suckage that i won't bother mentioning.

 

[DoomsdayZach]

To-mera - Transcendental
Agalloch - Ashes Against the Grain
Disillusion - Gloria

All '06 releases.

 

[Taliwakker]

Aghora was 06 too
