let's start wrapping up 2007 - present your absolute must-buys

[MadeInNewJersey]

that's like, what? $100 US? LOL

 

[Tranquillian]

At the current exchange rate, it's a bit over $100.

 

[jimbobhickville]

Blotted Science - Machinations of Dementia was released this week. That's a must buy. Anything with Ron Jarzombek is golden, especially instrumental stuff. It's also got that bass guy from Cannibal Corpse and the drummer from Behold... the Arctopus.

 

[Reign in Acai]

Imindain - And the Living Shall Envy the Dead.

This pisses on every release I've heard thus far this year. It makes Wolves in the Throne Room seem like Puppies in the Litter Box by comparison. Doom fucking Masterpiece!!! Holy shit! I haven't been blown away like this in I do not remember how long.

Do I sound like a fanboy!??! Wait for it



Wait for it...




Wait for it...

you're off your rocker

 

[Reign in Acai]

I thought Ambien closed eye lids not ear lobes. [/cheesy]

 

[Krilons Resa]

Naa, it's wtfever you are on. You're confused.

 

[Reign in Acai]

I'm on Doombien, these magic pills open your ears, eyes, and your piss hole to the wonders of British Kickassery.

 

[cthulufhtagn]

i think municipal waste and DsO are the only releases this year that i have and am really stoked on...pig destroyer is good but a big step down from terrifyer...i can't even think of anything else that's come out this year that i have

of course i have yet to pick up drudkh, baroness, and wolves in the throne room, all of which i am pissing my pants for like a little bitch.

edit: need to listen to magrudergrind and leviathan releases more...

New Leviathan? When did that happen?

 

[EricT]

Ok, after spinning Haevn a bit more recently, its definitely earned a place in the top 10 for the year.

I think people wrote this off way too quickly, it truly deserves undivided attention. They way they fuse the folk-melodies...this finds itself sitting alongside Helrunar's Frostnacht or Taake's Nattestid, and quite honestly, at times, out does both. Awesome.

Forest Stream - Crown Of Winter

Listen to the medley of the upcoming album.

This russian band is truly underrated. They released an album called Tears of mortal solitude in 2003 that is sublime.

So....any updated Top Albums Lists of 07?

 

[cthulufhtagn]

insect warfare - world extermination is grind madness from hell

 

[JayKeeley]
