The best cd of 2002 so far is...

[InMyKingdomCold]

Well for me:

Immortal - Sons of Northern darkness
Nile - In their Darkened Shrines

i swear theres another...

 

[Opethfan1980]

DT - Damage Done
Sentenced - The Cold White Light
and
Agalloch - The Mantle


Are definitely my top three.

 

[J.]

Special note must also go to

Agalloch- The Mantle
Primordial- Storm Before Calm

After about ten listens both of these grew on me and both are brilliant.

 

[mindflesh]

Dark Tranquillity - Damage Done
Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors
Pain Of Salvation - Remedy Lane
I also love the new Dillinger Escape Plan EP with Mike Patton (which is curious because I've never liked them before).

And I'm planning to check out the latest releases by Agalloch (since many of you praise it a lot), Nile and Cephalic Carnage.

Cephalic Carnage - Lucid Interval... until later on this week when my copy of ISIS' Oceanic comes in. i'm quite confident that it will be the best release of the year (yes, even better than the new opeth.)

I've heard of these bands but haven't had a chance to take a listen .. so what are they like ?
recomend a song.

 

[Furious B]

Agalloch - The Mantle
Queens Of The Stone Age - Songs For The Deaf

 

[Kveldssanger]

Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors (by far until now, at least until the new Virus is released)

[AlgaeScraper]

Agalloch-The Mantle :Smokedev:

AlgæScraper

 

[Stinkfist]

The Arcturus, Nile and Primordial are the best I've heard.

 

[~UlvedaL~]

Immortal, Nile & Arcturus have made the best so far...

 

[changso]

Man that ISIS sample was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Liquid Tension]

Pain of Salvation's Remedy Lane
Cosmosquad's Squadrophenia
Arabesque"s The Union
Arturus's The Sham Mirrors

Can't wait for the new Symphony X, Opeth and Porcupine Tree especially since they all claim that these will be their heaviest discs!

That Arabesque album is good.

Everyone always says that Green Carnation came out in 2001, but I've double and triple checked numerous sources to confirm that it came out on January 8th, 2002, so I'm keeping it on my list.

Looks like Agalloch, Nile, and Dark Tranquillity are the most popular picks, and not without good reason. I'm looking forward to seeing DT in concert this Friday.
