2007 - the best albums

[ShadowCreator]

I think the best this year without a doubt is Semper Fidelis by Nargaroth. :Smug:
Then
2. Shining - V-Halmstad
3. Porcupine Tree - FOABP
4. Wolves In The Throne Room - Two Hunters
5. Omnium Gatherum - Stuck Here On Snakes Way

 

[stefan86]

I just wrote a new list:

1. Porcupine Tree - Fear of A Blank Planet
2. Blackfield - Blackfield II
3. Riverside - Rapid Eye Movement
4. Insision - Ikon
5. Antimatter - Leaving Eden
6. Benighted - Icon
7. Paradise Lost - In Requiem

there wasnt any more albums that really grabbed me. only the first four are really good

^ Novembers Doom

 

[Phoenix5]

Of course Novembers Doom, you crazy!

 

[Belligerent]

Dominate The Human Strain has been on repeat the whole year!

 

[stefan86]

That album actually kinda faded for me. It's good, but not ultra good. I hold The Pale Haunt Departure higher

 

[Phoenix5]

To Welcome the Fade will be tough to beat for me. TNR is a real solid album, but not better than TPHD and TWTF.

 

[stefan86]

TWTF definitely has their best individual song in Dark Fields For Brilliance. I need to get back into them though since I havent listened much to them lately

DFFB is my favorite Novembers Doom song followed closely by Within My Flesh and Collapse of the Falling Throe.

DFFB is by favorite Novembers Doom song followed closely by Within My Flesh and Collapse of the Falling Throe.

It's just so atmospheric and plain awesome. My runner-up would be the TPHD title track. It's just brutal

 

[L0bster]

Posted back in October, but lets present the final list.

Ulver - Shadows of the Sun
Devin Townsend - ZTO
Clutch - From Beale Street to Oblivion
High on Fire - Death is this Communion
Backdraft - The Second Coming
Neurosis - Given To The Rising
Porcupine Tree - Fear of a Blank Planet
Megadeth - United Abominations
Mayhem - Ordo Ad Chao

Still need to check out Primordial and Mustasche.

Biggest dissapointment this year was "Antichrist" by Akercocke, after WTGUDTGU I'd expect something a bit more godlike in quallity, and not some stiff attempt at brutal death metal.

 

[stefan86]

[L0bster]

Alltid redo!
Hittade er cover på Leaders i mina mottagna filer

 

[stefan86]

Den lyfte fram något som saknades i orginalet!

This thread is great, after going through all of the lists I have gotten into some great music and went on a CD Buying frenzy at The End Records:

Antimatter, Alcest, Porcupine Tree, Benighted, The Foreshadowing, The Fall Of Every Season (maybe my favorite), Thurisaz, and Shining CD's are on their way in the mail. Thanks to all for pointing me in the direction of some fucking excellent music!

When I add these albums to the great ones I already have from 2007, it really has been a killer year for music!
(Funeral, Amorphis, Ulver, Wolves In the Throne Room, Novembre, Evoken, Behemoth, Longing For Dawn, Paradise Lost, Hanging Garden, and Forgotten Tomb).
