The Celebration Haul Thread

[MFJ]

I'm looking to get 15 cds and/or vinyls. Any/all genre, but especially looking for things in my normal genres (folk, ambient, black, doom, stoner, psychedelic, acoustic, whatever) as well. Give me recommendations based on what YOU would go out and get if a ton of money just fell into your lap and you decided to get 15 cds instead of drugs.

Cheers, and thanks- I know there's 1,000 retarded rec threads already

 

[JayKeeley]

It's tough to say because we're not sure what you already own.

Otherwise:

EMPYRIUM - Songs of Moors
HAMMERS - All 3
ENSLAVED - Monumension
BRUCE - Chemical Wedding <- it's traditional but you know, "classic"
SOLSTICE - New Dark Age
DsO - Si Monvmentvm

along those lines..

CARPATHIAN FOREST - Fuck You All

KAMPFAR - Kvass

TROLL - Drep De Kristne
TWIN OBSCENITY - Where Light Touches None
RAGNAROK - Nattferd (reminds me of STORMBL&#197;ST, mighty fine Norwegian melodic BM)

Eh, I tried to make it somewhat eclectic, figuring he has some of them already and keeping in mind his love for smoking ganja

 

[MajestikMøøse]

obviously you're going to get that Werkraum CD I recommended over AIM or else I'm going to disown you.

 

[Henrik Main]

Nah, it's downright gruesome, I reckon

 

[Six-winged Seraph]

obviously you're going to get that Werkraum CD I recommended over AIM or else I'm going to disown you.

Kristalle is amazing!

[spaffe]

Here's three I've recomended/ranted over before. All exceptionally good and "pretty" to "somewhat" over looked:

Koldbrann - Nekrotisk Inkvisition black metal: groovy, grim and with song writing skills which really sets these guys apart from the herd
Kampfar - Mellom skogskledde aaser viking/epic/whatever black metal of great quality
Naglfar - Diabolical death/black metal fury with skillz, melody and aggression
