Wayfarer - American Gothic is hands down my AotY this year. It's stupid good.

  • Liturgy - 93696
  • Body Void - Atrocity Machine
  • Usnea - Bathed In Light
  • Nightmarer - Deformity Adrift
  • Ragana - Desolation's Flower
  • OAK - Disintegrate
  • The Acacia Strain - Failure Will Follow (biggest surprise for me, as I fuckin' HATE everything else they've done)
  • Bell Witch - Future's Shadow Pt.1: The Clandestine Gate
  • Great Falls - Objects Without Pain
  • Death Engine - Ocean
  • Calligram - POSITION | MOMENTUM
  • Mizmor - Prosaic
  • Blindfolded and Led to the Woods - Rejecting Obliteration
  • Downfall of Gaia - Silhouettes of Disgust
  • Full of Hell & Primitive Man - Suffocating Hallucination
  • END - The Sin of Human Frailty
  • Big | Brave - nature morte
  • Blut Aus Nord - Disharmonium: Nahab

That's just of the records that I actually purchased vinyl copies of...this year was really good for heavy shit.

Liturgy (surprisingly because this is the first album of theirs that really worked for me) and Horrendous are my clear favorites this year. Also loved:

Tar Pond (criminally overlooked, and easily the best doom album other than Bell Witch)

Bell Witch

Fabricant

Agriculture

Chained to the Bottom of the Ocean

Godflesh

Oxbow (not metal, but also oddly overlooked, their best yet IMO)

Godflesh

Vestigio

Ex Everything

Gridlink

KEN Mode

Cicada the Burrower

Entropia (unfortunately not as good as their last two, but still amazing)

Sunrot

Best heavy end of the spectrum:
Thantifaxath - Hive Mind Necrosis
The Canyon Observer - Figura
Voidsphere - To Infect | To Inflict
Telos - Delude
 

I need to revisit Thantifaxath. It didn't grab me, but I seem to have a thing for this vein of black metal. Telos and Canyon Observer are new to me, but based on the over art alone I will have to give those a listen.

You ever seen them live? Listen to their records? Somehow I’m able to separate art from the artist. Weird stuff, I know.

I have 5 of their records and have seen them live a few times years ago.  After having kids it made me realize I'm not interested in supporting someone like that.  Weird stuff, I know.  Good for you if you are.  They need every fan they can get.

And that’s OK. 👍🏼

Question for everyone:

 

has anyone here ordered

CELESTE - EPILOGUE(S) from Nuclear Blast and if so, have you received a copy yet? They were supposed to ship last month but I wasn’t sure if there was a delay or if I need to contact them and inquire. Trying to not be “that guy”   

I haven't heard a word about delay neither seen this vinyl delivered to my doorstep. However, I somehow have bad experiences with NB, it happened to me few times that packages were returned without notification. So, glad I'm not the only one, maybe there is still hope.

Fuck the Inquisition dude. NSBM fucktard and into kiddie porn? You can't get worse than that. If you support them by buying records then you're a cunt too. It's beyond separating the art from the artist. 

"A subsequent investigation of his computer revealed as many as 2,000 files recovered depicting Inquisition, Dagon and his wife, and more child pornography, involving both young girls and boys. Enough of the latter category existed to fill four DVDs with images and videos."

I don't know if anyone else has posted about it somewhere else, but I'm finally getting to spin my copy of FAWN LIMBS x NADJA - "Vestigial Spectra" and it is Very Fucking Good. I'm pretty much down to insta-buy anything Fawn Limbs puts out without waiting to hear what it sounds like. They've been untouchable for me over the past several releases.

I can't believe I missed this!!!!! I knew that they were reissueing their catalog but it was gonna be a CD reissue campaign thru some Chinese label. I guess they found something better... Hopefully these get a wider release. Absolutely love these guys. Can't wait to hear the new shit tho!

Floga Records released a limited colorway of the first 4 albums.
