Best of 2012...so far

hmm ... Blabbermouth just gave THIS a 10/10 ... I never seen them gave a 10 to anything.



it's not bad until the singer comes in and fucks everything up.

this is like neo-Dream Theater ... dorian should eat this up.

hmmm ... nothing really stands out for me this year. Probably Nachtmystium comes close. Never would have thought I would say that.
 
I really like the new Enslaved. As per usual though, the first song kinda sucks. But other than Track 1 of the last several releases, there isn't anything of theirs I don't like really. In fact I think if I had to choose a #1 FAVOURITE BAND OMG NOTHING ELSE MATTERS it would be them. At least how I'm feeling today, but really, I don't have a #! FUAVCOIU BA HDOIMOGOFD anymore. Why choose? Why limit oneself to living, experiencing, and enjoying a limited palette of proverbial coloUrs of the world?

I'm talking to myself. I'm talking back to myself. I'm preparing to have a solo argument outside and into my own face. It's still 2005 right? NO. Fuck you then! Bllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhh.......

Okay, so after a listen to Blut Aus Nord's 777 trilogy (back to back to back), this is seriously the most musically interesting thing I've heard in a long time. I think it needs all three parts to make true sense, and it's fucking brilliant. I have a number one for 2012, and a number one and two for 2011 (revised)
