Okay. It is nearing the end for 2006, and I am curious to know what people have found as their favorites from this year so far. There are still plenty of albums to be released this year, and it may be interesting to see how much the lists can change from September to the year's end. So what have you so far? Here's mine (relatively in order).
Wormphlegm - Tomb of the Ancient King
Dolorian - Voidwards
Novembre - Materia
Katatonia - The Great Cold Distance
Agalloch - Ashes Against the Grain
Muse - Black Holes and Revelations
Nightbringer/Serpentinam - split 10"
Madder Mortem - Desiderata
Mirrorthrone - Carriers of Dust
Nortt - Ligfærd
And also...
Dir en grey - Withering to death.
Daylight Dies - Dismantling Devotion
Tool - 10,000 Days
Indesinence - Neptunian
Catacombs - In the Depths of R'lyeh
Ihsahn - The Adversary
Of course, this list is not absolute for me...as there are so many great albums to choose from (and I may have forgotten to include at least one). But it is indeed a rough list of mine.
