Top ten of 2006 (September)

[Scourge of Malice]

The Album Leaf - "Into the Blue Again" is sounding pretty awesome so far.

 

[Hobo]

New deftones comming out soon.. the first single from it, hole in the earth, is amazing.

 

[LifeDepraved]

New Symphony is taking wayyyyyy to long. Romeo needs to step it up.

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Fuck, I forgot Mouth of the Architect "The Ties That Blind" ... amazing album!

 

[Phoenix5]

I just saw on the SX forum, about a week ago, that it was set for October 31.

I hope that's when it comes out.

When you look at it, it says SCHEDULED, so who knows when it will be released.....

 

[LifeDepraved]

Romeo said it's going to come out in 2007.

[Peachy]

Oops, double post. Thanks slow internet.

 

[Peachy]

Opeth is definitely not. Not sure, don't think Hypocrisy is either.

 

[exy]

I think virus is an awesome album.

 

[Peachy]

I like it quite a bit too. (although I checked and it is 2005)

 

[Divatkreació]

Definitely Tenhi - Maaäet is one of the best albums. The mood is just so gloomy and the album feels so beautiful in Autumn. Couple of weeks ago I woke up at 6 a.m. and went into the living room. A beautiful lake can be seen there and I put Maaäet on the cd-player and the song Sarastuskävijä (means Dawn walker in a terrible translation) and it was just. wow. The nature was really vivid that morning with sun's weak light trying to pierce a thick layer of fog that had filled the lake.
Other great albums:
Novembre - Materia
Ihsahn - The adversary
Subaudition - The scope
Callisto - Noir
And I bet I forgot something. I believe the re-issue of BMD is going to be a killer also.

I'm having a lot of trouble naming an album that has really blown me away in 2006, actually none such album has been released yet this year..

Some good albums from 2006:

- Katatonia - TGCD (good album, maybe even great, but not to such an extent that I'm utterly overwhelmed)
- Daylight Dies - Dismantling Devotion (good album, but I can't deny I expected a bit more..)
- Green Carnation - The Acoustic Verses (same as TGCD)
- Necrophobic - Hrimthursum (when I first heard it, it sounded really impressive, but the reality is I haven't played it a whole lot..)
- Moonspell - Memorial (the same goes for this album as for Necrophobic)
- Iron Maiden - A Matter Of Life And Death (I was positively surprised, the first Maiden album since "Fear Of The Dark" that I actually play for my sincere enjoyment)
- Porcupine Tree - Stupid Dream (re-issued this year, OK, but still a re-issue, absolutely great and brilliant album, better than all of the above... *hides*)
- Dissection - Reinkaos (initially a devastating disappointment, but meanwhile quite OK and tolerable, far from great though)
- Keep Of Kalessin - Armada (excellent album, hadn't heard this band before, but this is an impressive album)
- Satyricon - Now, Diabolical (big improvement after "Volcano", which failed to move me in any way)
- Paatos - Silence Of Another Kind (pretty good album, but Kallocain is much better i.m.o.)
- Keane - Under The Iron Sea (nice and enjoyable album)

That's about it I guess.. Let's hope Blackfield will save the year for me..

 

[Lord_AgathoN]

No order:
Katatonia - The Great Cold Distance
Tool - 10.000 Days
Isis - In Absence of Truth
My Dying Bride - Line of Deathless Kings
Lacrimas Profundere - Filthy Notes for Frozen Hearts

Rotated also a lot in my cd player
Paatos - Silence Of Another Kind
Moonspell - Memorial

Uh and i forgot about the Daylight Dies one...just ordered it

- Porcupine Tree - Stupid Dream (re-issued this year, OK, but still a re-issue, absolutely great and brilliant album, better than all of the above... *hides*)

Oh yes, i absolutly fell in love again with this beauty

 

[the mourner13]

The first single from Poisonblack's new album Rush is very promising.I think that we won't feel the absence of Sentenced cos the new stuff is way harder than the first album...
