Ooooh I'm excited!

Ceremony destroyed my life and the subsequent couple of albums did little for me in comparison (but were still excellent), I think minimalism suits her best.

I don't think there's an album I've heard this year that has grabbed me so immediately and with such force.

ooh this album (All Thoughts Fly) is good, thanks for recommending it pomenitul. by the last couple of songs I was on the verge of screaming with the intensity.

now I've got Ceremony, having read fgti's comment

My pleasure! Along similar lines, and if you're curious, I'd also recommend checking out Maja S. K. Ratkje's Sult from last year – all voice & modified pump organ.

cool! I will check it out & the others you mentioned on the year-end list thread. I don't know any of these artists.

I'd never heard her work outside of her collaborations with Sunn O))), Wolves in the Throne Room and Tribulation, but I am absolutely loving the new Live at Montreux album, this is tremendous. Which of her previous albums come closest to this vibe?

the material is all from dead magic and the miraculous, so choose one of those. my fav is dead magic

This live album is absolutely brilliant.

She is really the greatest

Dusted off The Miraculous today for the first time in ages, no idea why I hadn't listened to it in so long. I picked it up after I fell in love with Ceremony, they're both tremendous.
