Albums currently kicking your ass

[no country for old wainds]

that's just a pretty short goofy interlude though, doesn't really harm it much.

w/e i don't really care as long as 'horsemen of the apocalypse' gets credit 'cause it's sexual

 

[Draehl]

Good quality Folk/Black.

I love how this thing goes from a funeral crawl to blastbeat inferno.

 

[Draehl]

Love that intro track especially!

Algaion. Really sick straight up Swedish black metal from 1995.

^anyone who doesn't list that in the '81 thread is neither a hero nor a saint.

Dolphin Ride is hokey as fuck. Commercial can be fine, but their brand of it was not.

Listening to this now. I was worried it'd be too AOR-y for me but it works in its favor really, it has that soaring, ethereal vibe pretty consistently throughout. No More Lonely Nights seems the only weak point. Dolphin Ride is amazing, it's like someone put a Camel interlude in my metal album, I love it.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

Yeah, that Saracen album is pretty great.

Anyway, I was in the mood for some shred so...

Proving to be one of my favorite bands yet again. This may get up there with In Hatred's Flame due to how tight and well-written it is.

 

[Mort Divine]

Forgot what an interesting and unique album this is.

Condemned is such an amazing album

EDIT: Gonna half-copy you

I was actually just about to ask you if any of their other stuff is worth hearing.



I just fucking love Coroner.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Actually tbh this album isn't that great listening to it right now. It's solid but I'm reminded of why I don't listen to it much lately. Drumming is still complex but riffs aren't that interesting, sorta modern Solitude Aeturnus but not as good, not as dynamic either.

If you track down their demo/live tracks that never made it onto Condemned, though, you'll find stuff worth healing.

All Coroner is great.

 

[CiG]

Oh cool, I haven't listened to any of Confessor's demo material either. I'll get on that now.

Agreed about Coroner, even my least favourite album by them is pretty damn good.

Thanks CIG for this one! Really cool punked out heavy/doom.
