Not that there's been a bunch of competition, but this is pretty easily my favorite non metal album released this year. Actually, metal included, it's still probably my favorite album from this year.

Sigur Ros and Boards Of Canada >>>> that
edit: @ QOTSA...
I've never been able to get into Sigur Ros. What is Boards of Canada like?

Boards Of Canada is one of the most important electronic acts of all time, for sure. IDM, like Aphex Twin, Autechre, etc.

Electronic like stupid club music? Or electronic like dark ambient?
I've heard of Boards of Canada, haven't listened to them though.

First real listen to the band. I knew that people always emphasized the traditional/power elements in their sound, but it's really strong here, in a good way.

That's actually pretty good. Was listening to it last night, made me want to reconsider buying their stuff.

My local record store has a lot of Deafheaven in stock. What type of stuff is it, and how good?

Is it possible for black metal to be uplifting? Because that's kinda Deafheaven's thing. It's shredding (as in face-shredding, not like power metal shredding), it's abrasive, loud, and intense as fuck, but it's all got like a shine to it that says everything will be okay. It's really an amazing listen.
Deafheaven gets shit on a lot for being hipster black metal, but so what? The end product is fantastic.

Yes, this album is rad. Love the darker tracks.
I think I finally get what's so good about Slayer. My mistake was always starting with Reign in Blood instead of this one.
