Was gonna look for a meme to post from Airplane with the capt. and kid in the cockpit but then realized that's Peter Graves.

My bad. Forgot to go for the trifecta.

Anyway so yeah, I'm already looking forward to 2015, Melechesh and Lost Soul especially. I would love to be totally surprised by this Marduk album that's coming but I fear they're never gonna recapture whatever they were on during Romans 5:12. But please prove me wrong, Marduk!
Supposedly Leviathan has a new one on the way, too. Despite all the baggage, I'm hoping for something interesting.
― Devilock, Monday, 22 December 2014 20:40 (nine years ago) link
I never heard the last Leviathan - lots of lukewarm to negative reviews of it.

jammin this vader record right now and it's really giving poking around google analytics a sense of grandeur
― original bgm, Monday, 22 December 2014 21:53 (nine years ago) link
That Vader record is great and probably the best album they've done in almost 15 years.
― Siegbran, Monday, 22 December 2014 23:22 (nine years ago) link
that vader record was on my ballot, it is fuckin awesome

DAmn... I wish I would've given that Piss Vortex a better listen...it would've been very high on my list.
― SeanWayne, Tuesday, 23 December 2014 03:27 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, that one's kind of interesting. I just gave it a first listen a couple nights ago. Like a grindy Gorguts.

I like a 14 song record in less than 15 mins.. lol

Yeah, Tibi et Igni is excellent. Lots of fun, not "experimental" or "progressive" to any discernible degree, just kick-ass thrashy death metal delivered w/ utter conviction (and a bit of unintentional humor). Probably not gonna displace De Profundis or Litany or w/e as anyone's very favorite Vader album, but damn near peerless in its niche. Problem w/ having been on a roll for 20-some years is that you never get to have the glorious comeback that makes everyone take notice.
― Adding ease. Adding wonder. Adding (contenderizer), Tuesday, 23 December 2014 14:59 (nine years ago) link
Lol, missed Siegbran's comment. Best since Litany? Maybe so, but I don't know that it's such a massive improvement over, like, Impressions in Blood and Welcome to the Morbid Reich.
― Adding ease. Adding wonder. Adding (contenderizer), Tuesday, 23 December 2014 15:02 (nine years ago) link
Haven't heard (or heard of) Piss Vortex. Not typically a grind fan, but curious...
...and shit yeah, Gorguts loom large, right there in the opening track's guitar tone. Good but mostly affirms my not-grindness. HC vocal bug.
― Adding ease. Adding wonder. Adding (contenderizer), Tuesday, 23 December 2014 15:07 (nine years ago) link
Of the few grind records I've heard this year, I like the Brutal Blues album a lot more. The 'psychedelic' tag is weirdly fitting.

Mansion's Uncreation EP is up on Bandcamp now too! I nominated this one unheard.

― jmm, Tuesday, 23 December 2014 19:19 (nine years ago) link
fuck, this brutal blues ep is killer! half the "psychedelic" seems to consist of vocal echo, but i love the manic repetitions, lazer streak guitars, natural-sounding kit, everything. never liked noxagt half this much.

also, was superstupid to cut alraune's the process of self-immolation from my list at the last minute. devastating album.

yeah, that alraune album is really good

haha, just been listening to the longest track on the YOB record - this is basically a straight-up post-rock reboot of Wicked Game, lol @ all you hardcore metalheads

imago, you were the first person ever to bring Kayo Dot to my attention; what do you think of Coffins on Io
― wince (Drugs A. Money), Thursday, 25 December 2014 22:05 (nine years ago) link
it's really great, a sort of elaboration on (or intensification of) the underrated Coyote; has great tunes and ideas; erases the masturbatory fug of Hubardo somewhat
― imago, Friday, 26 December 2014 00:45 (nine years ago) link
still cannot actually credit YOB getting all these plaudits on the basis of that final track but hey-ho, post-rock is a respected genre
― imago, Friday, 26 December 2014 00:46 (nine years ago) link
track two tho
― Adding ease. Adding wonder. Adding (contenderizer), Friday, 26 December 2014 01:17 (nine years ago) link
"marrow" isn't "wicked game", exactly. it's more like fat bedhead. and i'm okay with that, as post rock is and has long been a respected genre.

Might ring in the bells with our #1 album this year. Here's to a good 2015 to everyone!

Hi metal people of ilx,
Voting is currently in progress for the big sitewide EOY poll, and I hope that many of you will submit a ballot! If everyone who voted for the #1 album here also voted for it in the ILM poll, it would come in the top 10 for sure. If for some reason you're not stoked at the idea of sharing your favourite music with the rest of the board, maybe you can consider it a favour in return for my helping out with the metal poll every year.
