I'll have to check out the Kreator one.
I loved them back in the late 80s / early 90sJason the Magnificent - 12-3-2012 at 01:58 PM
Nice list, but I think the production on the new Behexen is a muddy mess compared to their last album....I think the songwriting declined a lot
too...I think they replaced some members.MikeFromInhuman - 12-3-2012 at 09:50 PM
My fave Metal of 2012:
THE DEVIL's BLOOD "The Thousandfold Epicentre" (came out in the USA January 2012, Europe Nov 2011)

WITCHRIST "The Grand Tormentor"
CANNIBAL CORPSE "Torture"
NAPALM DEATH "Utilitarian"
HOODED MENACE "Effigies of Evil"
OCCULTATION "Sixes and ..."

Damn, the list reminds me how out of touch I am these days.Jason the Magnificent - 12-4-2012 at 08:15 AM
Some stuff i'd definitely add that hasn't been mentioned...
2 Queensland bands ironically after Mikes post...
Mongrels Cross - Sins of Aquarius (easily in my top 5...absolutely flawless blackened thrash)
Gospel of the Horns - Ceremonial Conjuration
plus
Pallbearer - Sorrow and Extinction (best doom album in a loooong time. best show I saw all year.)
Anhedonist - Netherwards
Agalloch - Faustian Echoes
Windhand - Windhand
High on Fire - De Vermis Mysteriis (not their best, but still better than 90% of everything else)
Cardiac Arrest - Vortex of VolenceColin - 12-4-2012 at 11:23 AM
LOVE that band! My little sister got me into them last year, "sexy doom", someone described them as panzerkreuzer - 12-4-2012 at 12:25 PM
