Went to Borders and Barnes and Noble last night and neither place had fucking Terrorizer. While I was there, I browsed some Best of 2005 lists in various music mags and not one of them mentioned GR or any metal at all really. Sad that the hipsters (who admittedly did have some excellent choices...Dungen, New Pornographers, Vashti Bunyan, Kate Bush, etc.) found no place for quality metal releases in their top 50, but found plenty of room for Kanye and Franz Ferdinand.
Not saying Nile or Bodom get to crack into those lists, but definitely GR, Between the Buried and Me, Porcupine Tree, Nevermore, and Arcturus deserve shots. Lame ass New York media types with chunky, brushed forward hair, and blazers over t-shirts!
