Strong list!

 

[Vilden]

Wow forgot Orodruin, may edit my list now...

 

[Phylactery]

I love Epicurean Mass! Not sure if it'll make my top 10.

Epheles - Le dernier pardon

Thanks for reminding me that this was released this year!

 

[rms]

I love Epicurean Mass! Not sure if it'll make my top 10.

need to relisten until you realize this statement is ridiculous

 

[Phylactery]

Okay, but then you need to listen/relisten to Conjuration of the Spectral Empire until you realise it needs to be on your list.

 

[rms]

MA says that one is Nov 2002?

 

[Phylactery]

I thought it was released in 2002 actually but a couple of people have had it on their lists and rym says 2003.

It seems there was a numbered edition released in late 2002, but it was released by their own label in 2003. So I dunno now.

 

[Mort Divine]

it looks like its initial release was 2002, but got a more widespread release in 2003

 

[rms]

sounds like a disqualification to me

#teamOrodruinForNumber1

 

[Phylactery]

We allowed Crystal Logic for 1983. Think we should do the same here, since its main release seems to have been in 2003. Doesn't matter as long as people don't vote for it in the 2002 thread.

 

[rms]

I definitely prefer it to the debut.

over time the debut has become my favorite. i recommend thy to giveth more spins

What's this? Never heard of it.

Death metal, fairly melodic, somewhat reminiscent of Arghoslent.

song is sick and the youtube album makes it sound even better. but this shit is so rare that typing in the artist/album name into google gives me more hits on some damn animated film and apparently a metallum/RYM doesn't exist

rip this shit for me <3

everything i'm seeing says DEC 83 for Crystal Logic ?

 

[Phylactery]

The album was officially released in January 1984, regardless of what the imprint says.

Hamburgerboy cleared it up that it was actually released in 1984.
