[MadTinus]

[cliffburton615]

I own Scott Walker - the Drift but havent really listened properly yet.
I`ll report back when I do.

At the moment Muse - Black Holes And Revelations

 

[Hobo]

...and you all forgot Green Carnation - The acoustic verses!
not only best non metal, but best album overall..

other ones, as stated earlier.. tool, Mars Volta..
Is Dredg - Catch without arms from this year, or was it -05?

 

[Morfeind]

...and you all forgot Green Carnation - The acoustic verses!
not only best non metal, but best album overall..

Agreed. Have you seen the new dvd yet? Fantastic.

 

[MadTinus]

Green Carnation, of course!

novembre(hard line to tell with them too)

there is a ton of great non metal cds way more than metal this year.

Well I would never call the new Nobembre cd non-metal. Even though they've dropped the amount of death metal vox they still have some and that's it. And I don't think a non-metal album could consist of double bass drumming, especially if it's a dominating element in some songs? Definitely metal all the way.


Tenhi - Maaäet
Isis - In the absence of truth
Anekdoten - Gravity

 

[Hobo]

Agreed. Have you seen the new dvd yet? Fantastic.

yes, and yes

 

[Hypnos]

Tenhi - Maaäet
Green Carnation - Acoustic Verses
Antimatter - Planetary Confinement

I believe 'Planetary Confinement' was 2005. Great album.

 

[Hypnos]

^^ that's right, my fault

 

[Swany]

Hmmm ... can't decide to take only one as they're pretty different:

- Backyard Babies: People Like People Like People Like Us
- Elane: Lore Of Nén
- Letzte Instanz: Ins Licht

Anekdoten - Gravity

I thought Anekdoten was 2005? Great album btw, such an underrated band.

lisa miskovsky - changes

 

[paradoxile]

- Elane: Lore Of Nén

we get it...Markus is åsome
but I'll shut up because I haven't heard anything by Elane that's not on myspace or their site...from what i heard...me likey

 

[Vincent J.]

lisa miskovsky - changes

Heh, as bandmember of a damn good band you have the ability to let me check this music out... what I'm doing right now. Sounds pretty... I especially like this song *listens to stardust*

 

[Hobo]

Lisa Miskovsky is cozy.

and hawt.

(and a good musician as well.. )

 

[Swany]

No... actually Markus is the one who spoils the whole CD a bit... Any Elane-song you hear... if you think "this was strange" or "someone doesn't hit a note" ... that's Mr. Unicorn for sure!
I mean... I know it seems strange if I'm always praising the bands & songs & skills of a good friend [< and nothing more... ]... but do you wanna know why I got to know Markus? Because his fuckin' music rockz!

And I tell Markus to send you some flowers for not downloading it somewhere
