Im going to make a point of listening to 2005 releases from now on.
Glad to see someone else likes that album, expect in my top 10 for sure.

It's out. I know of one person I can get it from, but I refuse to pay for the exchange rates.
Red Stream will be getting it in soon.

Gotcha. I'll keep my eyes out for it. Same deal with Thyrfing, btw. www.darkness.de has it, but for $14 Euro, and I just don't want to "import" it for $22 or so, incl. s/h.
A tad early perhaps, but my final list will probably include albums from these bands/artists:
Deathspell Omega
Bruce Dickinson
Primordial
Nachtefalke
Graveland
Nokturnal Mortum
Drudkh
Bolt Thrower
Taake
Dark Tranquillity
A ready list will be posted on New Year's Eve or january the first.

cheating the polygraph
I'm unprepared for this task, there have been some great albums but my tastes have changed drastically enough that any standards I'd use to rank and measure albums have been rendered useless...2005 will be one of these years that can only be assessed in 3-4 years hindsight...
That said, Porcupine Tree and Nevermore are the clear leaders in the personal airplay list...

I see that the Red Sparowes album is in you top 3. I just fail to see the greatness of that album...I'll give it a few more spins. Any highlights? Favorite songs?
Awesome list btw.
