[IntoPhagist]

Shit I forgot about Polaris...really good comeback for Stratovarius...

Still waiting on Ensiferum, Slayer, Threat Signal, Immortal, Megadeth, Borknagar, Katatonia

 

[Lateralus14]

Dammit, just moved into the new dorm and the options for getting music here are now pretty limited, but I wanna hear some of the new death metal stuff like Funebrarum, Slugathor, and Ignivomous.

As for tops..um..

Blut Aus Nord
maudlin of the Well
Mono
Isis
Mournful Congregation
Asphyx
Cobalt
Katharsis
Beherit

etc. etc...

 

[EmbraceTheDeath]

I just ordered Ignivomous's new album. It should be the best dm album of 09 if it's anything like Eroded Void of Salvation.

 

[The Ozzman]

Mantic Ritual is still tops for me

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

I relistened to the first half of that album last night before I went to sleep, goddamn it is that album great.

EmbraceTheDeath: it's better than Eroded Void of Salvation...it's incredible.

THX for Borgne and Fen recommendations.

 

[Einherjar86]

I need to get Fen's Ancient Sorrow.

Bornholm's March For Glory and Revenge is one of my favorite black metal releases that I've heard this year.

 

[Belligerent]

^ Yeah that Bornholm album is awesome. Vreid Milorg is up there for best black metal album as well.

 

[divine_torture]

I already mentioned it the 2009 sticky thread, but Katatonia's new one leaked. And it is beyond amazing. Absolutely #1 of the year.

 

[Einherjar86]

Sweet! I'm psyched.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Beherit, the Chasm, and Slugathor are still tops on my list.

 

[divine_torture]

Ein, it's unbelievable. There's on song that sounds too similar to Opeth, that's my only complaint. But it's mellower, darker, more textured, more mature, more proggy...fucking more awesome all around.

The Chasm'll probably end up on the list.
