It's that time... your best albums of 2006

[MajestikMøøse]

man oh man does that Head Control System suck

 

[ShadowsWithin]

Only really noteworth one I can think of off the top of my head is the new Into Eternity and Amon Amarth.

 

[derek]

I actually liked the new Evergrey a lot too, although a lot of people hated it.

It's not terrible, it has some nice parts.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Only really noteworth one I can think of off the top of my head is the new Into Eternity and Amon Amarth.

That would be two.

 

[ShadowsWithin]

That would be two.

Yeah I thought of Amon Amarth mid typing So I just added it.

 

[Blakk Axe]

Damn it.

Strapping Young Lad, Evergrey, Amorphis, Rage, Moonspell...

 

[El Diablo Fantastico]

man oh man does that Head Control System suck

Not ridiculously obscure enough for you, champ?

 

[Chromatose]

tbh it sounds like poo


and I mean that in a bad way

 

[El Diablo Fantastico]

I quite like it. Though, to be honest I am quite a fan of most things Garm does. To me it's a good mix of metal, rock and randomness.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

Not ridiculously obscure enough for you, champ?

Nah, I had to review it for a webzine, and after repeated listens I came to the conclusion that it was really awful.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

hmmmm i never got around to hearing the new nortt. i should do that.

 

[El Stormo]

Strapping Young Lad

I was actually a bit disappointed by the new SYL.

 

[Blakk Axe]

I was actually a bit disappointed by the new SYL.

What I like about it is that they had some catchy tunes this time, instead of only 'musical chaos' (which I obviously like, too).

Maybe I'm just too old for this shit....

 

[Hawk]

My first 5 so far.

1) Zero Hour - Specs Of Pictures Burnt Beyond
2) Beyond Twilight - For The Love Of Art And The Making
3) Seventh Wonder- Waiting in the Wings
4) Into Eternity - The Scattering Of Ashes
5) Communic - Waves Of Visual Decay

 

[Mike]

I really liked:
Green Carnation - The Acoustic Verses and Dissection - Reinkaos

Im surprised that no one put the Nevermore re-issues.

And Im also surprised to see so many people put CC - Kill, I really like "Make them Suffer" but the rest of the cd is shit.

 

[EricT]

Fuck, I totally spaced on the new Negura Bunget... That CD is also very fucking good.

 

[Lunar Still]

Ugh, I can't believe I forgot Communic! I'm a moron.

 

[Morf1end]

(in order)

Katatonia - The Great Cold Distance
Green Carnation - Acoustic Verses
Agalloch - Ashes Against The Grain
Giant Squid - Metridium Fields
Devin Townsend - Synchestra
Mastodon - Blood Mountain
The Mars Volta - Amputechture
Moonspell - Memorial
The Gathering - Home

I also just got the new Red Sparowes cd, which may find its way on the list eventually.

[WhiteBeastofWotan]
