Kvlt! posted:As others have said Stoner Witch is a great place to start with the Melvins and Gluey Porch Treatments is top-tier "My War B-side" early sludge. I also really dig Bullhead and Lysol if you're looking to expand to some of their other sound a bit. Melvins+two bassists=magic, for some reason, they really hit a winning streak with the Big Business records

I dont quite have the order down but Im pretty sure my top 10 of the year looks like this. I know you were all clamoring for it: 1. Thou - Magus 2. Sleep - The Sciences 3. Tomb Mold - Manor of Infinite Forms --- Burial Invocation - Abiogenesis Horrendous - Idol Augury - Illusive Golden Age Sigh - Heir to Despair Cult Leader - A Patient Man Slugdge - Esoteric Malacology Khemmis - Desolation Honorable mentions: Obliteration - Cenotaph Obscure Mutilation Rites - Chasm Un - Sentiment Extremely good year, especially compared to 2017, where my AOTY (Apostate Viaticum) would be toward the bottom of this years top 10.

I've missed a lot of stuff this year. I don't know about favorite anythings because I've barely gotten to listen to any of these albums all the way through, but here's a few cool things I listened to this week The name of this band turned me off at first, but this is some of the most instantly impressive prog-death I've heard in years. Riff-driven. Lots of killer solos. No meedly-meedly Gorod poo poo. You'll probably dig this if you like early Atheist or stuff like Children. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-FIvnCaXYY Not entirely sure what to compare this to, but it sort of sounds to me like if Blackie from Root and Cales was the guitarist for Saor's Aura album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ci6ZesrTDuY If you like Thulcandra/Sacramentum/Dissection but also the latest Arsis record, this is pro-click https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dg-ShnyA7kg These guys do a good pastiche of mid-career Opeth and Xanthochroid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZYOpY_-mfw This is mostly relevant to the space metal discussion from some pages back https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbc-oO_HSuk A bunch of guys obsessed with World War I blacken up a bunch of Bolt Thrower riffs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wMWyKdEM94 This song just wants you to go gently caress yourself https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcDUuwE0C10 I'm too out of the loop on US black metal to know what to compare this to, but it's cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIzjOOaw3a8 More Gilead stuff out of NY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B35F8QsrAKo This Scorched album has been discussed a few times in here but I'm just getting around to hearing it so here you go again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kxD1P9cwUA Cool blackened crust that seems to draw a lot from, of all things, At the Gates' Terminal Spirit Disease and With Fear I Kiss the Burning Darkness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVkjd6h1EWo I'm running out of words e: un-embedded for  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgQmgNT1vtc Vulture Culture fucked around with this message at 05:54 on Dec 19, 2018 |

I'm very glad I checked this track out in particular, since the entire album is absolutely killer. A definite, late addition to my AOTY list and among the top 5 I'd say.

Part of me wants to think the album could do with a bit fewer/shorter movie samples, but then one of them is Ernest Borgnine telling some fresh recruit how to kill dudes with a spade, and I can't in good conscience criticize that.

It's not metal at all really, but since people brought up Big Business and The Melvins, I feel the need to mention how great Karp is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJbbfQO4JeY They made a documentary about the band not far back and it's pretty great to watch a dude go from talking about how he idolized The Melvins to talking about how he's in that band now.

Yessssss, def going to the Raleigh show, Yob was show of the year for me in 2018, and one of the top albums for me too, and Mike was super cool to talk to.  I didn't end up finding any of the goons there, but I ran into the huge guy that horse collard a douche who moshed into some women at the start of the show. I originally thought he worked there, but when I ran into him at a bar after the show he was just there for bellwitch, and said "who the gently caress moshes at a show like this" and policed the front by himself. I bought him a beer and talked his ear off and probably annoyed him. Who will be hiding in Ral April??

Dont mind me posting this here but the rest of nmd sucks and is bad and theres surely some crossover. What happened to the neofolk/martial industrial thread? Its hard to dodge the nazis and the people who think david tibet is nazi but I want to find some new stuff. The new Current 93 is really good. I did somehow miss out on Die Ęsthetik der Herrschaftsfreiheit. An album a lot of people seem to think is one of the best of the genre and Rome has been one of my favorite bands for 10+ years. Oops.

I dont know about the thread but Im always down to find some more ambiguously fascistic acoustic jams. Especially when they dress for duty at the deathcamp but get all flustered by people saying they might be right wing. Ill check out that new C93 and Die Ęsthetik, thanks.

Die Aesthetik is probably Rome's best album (albums?) But I definitely slept on it when it came out, probably because the 3 albums in one release thing annoyed me at the time. I have high hopes for the upcoming Rome album because he's billed it as a return to his older material which is good because I think Hall of Thatch sucked.

Die Ęsthetik is one of my all time favorite albums (along with Flowers From Exile), and I'm enjoying the new Rome song quite a bit after being left a bit cold by Hall of Thatch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-0rF1HJL2U

For Christmas I got Metallica's AJFA box set. I'm a very happy little fanboy. That being said, the remastered mix is fairly loving great if you're listening to it NOT on Youtube. There's a bit more dynamics, a bit more space. They've boosted the sub bass frequencies so now most of the kick drums give a big "woomph" and I think they've added some low mids to the mixes overall. The reverb on James' voice is a bit more obvious, but it's still pretty tasteful and not RTL style. NOTE: I am a tragic fanboy so this could be placebo. But I'm happy as a pig in poo poo so whatever

Swartadaužuz (Bekėth Nėxėhmu, Svartrit, Grifteskymfning, etc. - Ancient Records) is releasing a full-length as Musmahhu and the preview song crushes. He already did some great death metal as Demonomantic, so I'm sure this album will be amazing the whole way through.
