2007: a grand year for grim sounds[views:3507][posts:25]_____________________________________ [Sep 4,2007 2:20am - goatcatalyst ""] 9 months in, these are some of the releases I've been obsessing over and anticipating: Deathspell Omega "Fas: Ite, Maledicti, In Ignem Aeternum" Watain "Sworn To The Dark" Drudkh "Estrangement" Kroda "Fimbulvinter" Cobalt "Eater Of Birds" Lifelover "Erotik" Alcest "Souvenirs d'un autre monde" Aluk Todolo "Symbol" Paysage d'Hiver "Einsamkeit" Mortuus "De contemplanda Morte; De Reverencie laboribus ac Adorationis" Marduk "Rom 5:12" Krohm "The Haunting Presence" Bergraven "Dödsvisioner" Walknut "Graveforests and Their Shadows" Impiety "Formidonis Nex Cultus" Endstille "Endstilles Reich" Celestia "Delh˙s-cätess" yet to be heard, sure to be savored: Leviathan "Massive Conspiracy Against All Life" Lurker Of Chalice "Perverse Calculus" Wolves In The Throne Room "Two Hunters" Portal "Outre" Judging by the 7 song promo, it will likely take me through the rest of the year to digest the new Xasthur And going from "The Abraxas Trance", I'm siked to hear more new CNV I'm sure there's tons of shit I'm leaving out. ... morbidly curious what's been keeping some of you occupied |

| ______________________________________ [Sep 4,2007 10:40am - goatcatalyst ""] indeed, Yeti. I have yet to listen to the Finntroll and Dimmu, but how could I forget Jesu - especially for the "Sundown/Sunrise" Conqueror bonus tracks. The Pig Destroyer, Nile and Type O are all excellent releases. |

| _______________________________________ [Sep 5,2007 9:58am - DestroyYouAlot ""] It's a big year for releases that I don't want to steal (i.e., from bands that I actually want to support), so I haven't heard any of them yet. *sulk* |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 5,2007 10:19am - goatcatalyst ""] i don't see anything wrong with downloading whatever your heart desires and then buying whatever your wallet can afford. can't say i've been bummed out by anything i've bought in well over a year. viva meritocracy. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 5,2007 11:03am - C.DEAD ""] Aw, come on, no Lifelover? "Erotik" is easily my favorite release this year. Also, Abigor-"Fractal Possession", Exit Wounds-"17 wounds of exit", Hacavitz-"Katun" and i know there are others, just can't think very clearly with a haggard old lady on my ear trying to tell me how she thinks she knows more than i do about my field. Douche. |
| _________________________________ [Sep 5,2007 11:05am - C.DEAD ""] wait, sorry, just noticed goatse. mentioned Lifelover, god, i am stupid and i apologize. Must be the stupid wench. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 5,2007 11:21am - goatcatalyst ""] hehe. ain't no thing. i liked the Abigor, but i haven't heard Exit Wounds or Hacavitz. i'll admit, the purpose of my starting this thread was so i could find some new shit to check out... and "recommend me..." threads are as gay as the day is long. |

I agree 100%; the problem is that I know I won't end up buying stuff right now if I download it, so I'm waiting on a few things. I'm broke and have a nerd-on for a bunch of new RPG books at the moment, so that's where my disposable cash is going to for now. |

| ______________________________ [Sep 6,2007 10:47am - Yeti ""] i'm really surprised no one mentioned Mayhem - Ordo Ad Chao. its not as spectacular as it was hyped up to be, but it isn't bad. |
| ____________________________________________ [Sep 6,2007 10:59am - ConquerTheBaphomet ""] I think Limbonic Art put out an album this year. Also add: Impending Doom- Nailed.Dead.Risen Whitechapel- The Somatic Defilement Malevolent Creation- Doomsday X Between The Buried And Me- Colors and other stuff I can't think of. |
