Best album of 2006 thus far.

[Will Bozarth]

Dissection - Reinkaos

think it sucks? fuck off!

also, Green Carnation's Acoustic Verses

 

[Brett]

Ministry - Rio Grande Blood

Every song is a kick in the goddamn head. Although every song is political, it's very inspired. That's the shit I look for in music.

Edit: Also, when you have Al Jourgensen, Paul Raven, and Tommy Victor all working on the same record, it's awesome by default.

 

[neal]

MAMMATUS

psychodelic rock from Santa Cruz

 

[EricT]

Its a tie between Bal-Sagoth's Chtonic Chronicles and Dissection's Reinkaos for me so far. Well, that and Green Carnation's Acoustic Verses...

 

[Will Bozarth]

i forgot all about AV. kill me

I think it's because they released that limited EP in 2005, and i just associate it with that year

 

[Animus]

I don't see how anyone that's not new to melodeath could think Reinkaos is anything but mediocre. For me it's Enslaved - Ruun, with Drudkh - Blood in Our Wells, Keep of Kalessin - Armada, and Summoning - Oathbound, hot on it's heels.

 

[derek]

Drudkh and KoK are my favourite two of this year. The summoning record is quite remarkable also.

 

[Chromatose]

you all can stop disillusioning yourselves anytime..

currentninetythree - Black Ships ate the Sky

FACT

 

[AsModEe]

only the 3 last posters know what they're talking about.

Perhaps the album Neal mentionned but I have no clue what it is

 

[Chromatose]

I don't know what it is either, but neal may be on to something!

 

[eaeolian]

Psycroptic - Symbols of Failure. But I have high hopes for Into Eternity.

 

[Reminiscence]

I have to go along with Ruun as well, with Blood in Our Wells being very close.

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

The new Temnozor rules.

 

[naboo]

So far it's Synchestra by Devin Townsend. Ihsahn's and Summoning's new ones are growing on me rapidly and I have Enslaved's new one in the mail though.

 

[Dead_Lioness]

I don't see how anyone that's not new to melodeath could think Reinkaos is anything but mediocre. For me it's Enslaved - Ruun, with Drudkh - Blood in Our Wells, Keep of Kalessin - Armada, and Summoning - Oathbound, hot on it's heels.

^ ahhhhhh I agree!!!! (about Dissection as well... my goatness
what happened Jon???? )

Drudkh, Enslave, Armada and Summoning!

 

[Necromunchkin]

I think I shall still have to give my vote to Wolves In the Throne Room.

 

[SirDidymus127]

only the 3 last posters know what they're talking about.

because they're all gods of metal... they know all...

why can't people just like what they like... why do people have to "know what they're talking about" because they like bands that you like. can't i know what i'm talking about even if i like different stuff than others?

 

[BlueSky]

tool-10,000 days then katatonia-the great cold distance

 

[Metal0wnzYou]

Krisiun - AssassiNation and Sodom - s/t have really stuck out big time for me. Green Carnation and Kataklysm were both really good too.

 

[Vic Rattlehead]

Sadus- Out for Blood
