[JayKeeley]

Almost a year gone by now....still a great list.

I listened to Autumn Aurora just yesterday morning, train ride into work, sun shining through the orange haze of trees passing by....perfect soundtrack.

 

[Tranquillian]

I own 13 of those and enjoy the other two.

 

[AsModEe]

I only own 1 of these albums I tried to get some of these on the list, to no avail.

 

[J.]

all but Hammers, here

 

[Reign in Acai]

I have the majority of these.

 

[Hell Mike]

Got all except Empyrium, Opeth and Hammers

 

[Demilich]

wow i actually own most of those!

 

[Six-winged Seraph]

have everything except for Primordial.

 

[immo]

I can't get into Enslaved :/

 

[Thanatopsis123]

Vikingligr Veldi specifically or any of them?

 

[immo]

Well i've listened to "Vikingligr Veldi" and "Frost" .. and didn't find anything special. Maybe i should try other albums but i'm busy right now listening to better bands

 

[cthulufhtagn]

hey, i have most of those...and the ones i don't have, all of them except empyrium i have at least one other album by the same band. i need some empyrium.

 

[General Zod]

I own seven. Hvis Lyset Tar Oss needs a few more listens before I decide whether or not I should buy it. I need to spend some time with Vikingligr Veldi as well as "N Crugu Bradului.

Agalloch - Pale Folklore
Drudkh - Autumn Aurora
Enslaved - Vikingligr Veldi
Moonsorrow - Verisäkeet
Negura Bunget - N Crugu Bradului
Opeth - Morningrise
Ulver - Bergtatt

I own the above. :Smokin:

 

[Dark One]

as well as "N Crugu Bradului.

Be sure to emphasize Season III (track 3).

That lists kicks total ass. Musically, I can make an argument for every single one of those releases being masterpieces. Vocally, I'm still having a tough time with Bathory and Empyrium. More time is warranted, and more time they will receive.

 

[Demonspell]

Own about 75% of them, at least half due to recommendation from RC.

 

[JayKeeley]

i've owned every single one of those albums, even before we made the list. goddamn i'm cool, i think i'll go masturbate. slowly.

 

[Mormagil]

own none and have only heard three
