No problem.

Kruzifixxion is decent Darkthrone(era A Blaze in the Northern Sky/Under A Funeral Moon) worship with an overall hellish atmosphere. Not very original, but a worthy purchase. 8/10

I'm really enjoying Towards Thy Astral Path. It's subtley layered with beautiful keyboards and full of awe-inspiring melodies. Great stuff. 9/10

The Astrofaes, as I've seen you say before, fucking rules. I have Dying Emotions Domain and it's a huge improvement. 9.5/10

I haven't listened to Tenebrae In Perpetuum much, but it's generally melodic, sometimes melancholy black metal. They're obviously influenced by Burzum, but they've a fair share of differences and originality. 8.5/10

Forgotten Legends was an impulse buy, as I already have Autumn Aurora. So far I'm enjoying it a lot more. 8.5/10

Sary Oy really, really surprised me. I haven't listened to it nearly enough, but upon first impressions it is a godly work of atmospheric art. Brilliant riff-work, and the traditional instruments/keyboards bring about a similar feel to Goat Horns. Fantastic. 10/10

I'm still trying to re-d/l that Stutthof. Heritage is the next Astrofaes one to get. I don't really have a preference between the Drudkh albums these days, I like both, I don't love either. Darkestrah are somewhat interesting, they didn't strike me like they have you, though. Maybe I should give it more listens.
 
Off the top of my head in 2005 I've bought the following CDs thus far:

Marduk - Plague Angel
Finntroll - Nattfold
Butthole Surfers - Double Live

Children of Bodom - Trashed, Lost & Strungout EP

Behemoth - Thelema 6
Behemoth - Conjuration EP
Behemoth - Historica Box Set

How is this?

Pretty cool on first listen. In comparison to Rubycon, the only other album of theirs I have there are a lot less rythem based movments and a lot more ambient parts. Seems like more real guitar is used on it as well.

Ok today I bought

King Crimson- Islands
Pink Floyd- Dark Side of the Moon
Pink Floyd- Ummagumma

All on LP

God I love having a record player so much, totally getting me back into prog...
