I listened to so few records this year it's astounding. I don't think, bar the newest Katatonia, I could name one record from 2009 I remember listening to.

Sometimes I think I just don't like music that much any more.

AIC - BGWTB

It just knocked everything else out of the water for me.

[Craysh3]

Screw everything:

No. 1 is Glorior Belli - Meet Us at the Southern Sign. Can't believe that gem slipped from my mind.

*And don't get me wrong, D666 put out a grand piece of work in '09 as well, but I felt that it was spammed enough throughout this thread as it is

 

[Brooks]

My two favorites. Buy them.

Cave - Psychic Psummer

Ben Frost - By The Throat

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Screw everything:

No. 1 is Glorior Belli - Meet Us at the Southern Sign. Can't believe that gem slipped from my mind.

Meh, that was a disappointment of 09 for me. Their first two albums are so much better. I dug the first track, but the rest is a snoozefest.

 

[Craysh3]

Seriously? That shit pummeled through for me just as anticipated. I loved the whole blues-black metal rendition he did with "In Every Grief-Stricken Blues", that was absolutely masterful!

 

[[KOTNO]Narrot]
