Darkspace - Dark Space III

Oh, this is so good. I'm suffocating in space and loving the journey. Bring on IV - it's been 4 years already!

Nice. I saw these guys last night and they are flawless.

Comatose Vigil - Not A Gleam Of Hope

Some of my favourite funeral doom around. It's quite simplistic, but it works like a charm for me. I love listening to this and I can't imagine I'll ever get tired of it.

Sodom - Agent Orange

I plugged a hole in my collection, but I still need a few Sodom items, particularly Persecution Mania. I had the damn tour T-shirt of the album two decades ago, but I've never owned the album.

Helloween - The King for 1000 Years

I like this album more every time I come back to it.

Blut Aus Nord - Epitome VII

It's late, I'm tired, and this repetitious, mechanical droning is lulling me into it's labyrinthine nuances. Not a terribly bad thing...

Yet another album that gets a lot of flak for no discernible reason.

Novembers Doom - The Harlot's Lie

It seems like these guys got better with each album.

It's not their best album but I think it shows their style in its full, uncensored and quirky glory. As for Novembers Doom, try The Pale Haunt Departure, dude; that album is awesome.

Helloween - Pleasure Drone

Dream Theater - Learning to Live

This live version doesn't have the awesome fade out that I'm used to but the more aggressive vocal approach James is going for here is something that I miss in the studio version. I love the emotional intensity that starts around 6:30 and gets released at the end. Probably the best thing Dream Theater ever came up.

I already did. I grabbed 'em all.

Novembers Doom - What Could Have Been

Considering they got Anneke to do vocals for this pretty mediocre song, the title is quite apt.

One of their few brilliant post Wishmaster songs imo

Novembers Doom - Of Age and Origin - Part 2: A Day of Joy

I think I figured out why I like their later albums more. They sound almost exactly like Anathema. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but my brain says it's the latter.

Tsorer - Sodom

Never heard of 'em have ya? Well you're missing out on some damn good stuff here. Black metal with a unique sound and flavour of their own.

This song reminds me why I love these guys so much.

Also listening to ENVENOM. I'm going to buy some new Sabbat albums tomorrow. Should I get the newest one? I only own their debut.

As a general guideline I prefer buying old albums first, but aside from that I can't help you. Envenom is the only one I know so far.

Enslaved - Convoys to nothingness

That is the only Monumension song I really like, it has such a sad atmosphere.

Orphaned Land - Mercy (Paradise Lost Cover) (Live)

A classic example of a cover being greater than the original.

Pretty much. Oceanborn is still one of my favorite power metal albums of that era I have to say. What did you think of Imaginaerum? I was kind of indifferent to it for the most part, seems like they are not gonna get away from the bloated orchestral side of the last few for a while. I did appreciate the attempt at more experimentation though, even though a lot of those didn't work completely.

Riot - Fall Before Me

I was so anticipating this album to come out, and when it did I remember thinking it didn't quite live up to expectations, but listening back I think it's one of Riot's best. I heard that Mike Flyntz wrote a lot of the guitars on this album, so maybe this upcoming one without Mark will still be good.

Merzbow - Worms Plastic Earthbound.

Getting into this is proving to be the most difficult musical endeavour I've ever embarked upon. Simply impenetrable, but inspiring. Also that album cover is an eye-fuck.

Thergothon – Everlasting

I havent heard Imaginaerum, i just cant listen to a Nightwish with no Tarja and not to mention i think their new stuff is decent but awful when compared to the first 3 albums.

Orphaned Land - Birth of the Three (The Unification)

This song touches me in places that make me feel good.

Orphaned Land rules!

Listening to -I by Darkspace again. I loved the melody buried beneath the dense layers.
