God bless doom-metal.

My Dying Bride - The Deadful Hours : My favorite MDB album after a while. I still love Like Gods of the Sun and The Angel and The Dark River to death though.

Nortt - Gudsforladt: What to say. Probably the ultimate doom/black album along...

...Forgotten Tomb - Springtime Depression : This one's a blast a well. I just can't describe the pain there's in this album.

And several things aside :

Dream Evil - Evilize : Not bad but not too good either. Enjoyable.

DragonForce : My favorite heavy-metal band with infinite -as I love- soli.

Decapitated - Nihility : This album is so pure in essence I simply love it. There's a incredible feel. this is death-metal.

Has anyone heard the latest Converge? It's so extreme I can't listen to 2 songs straight. So much chaos in a single band, that's terrifying.

Please post your thoughts on the concert afterwards. I'd be interested to hear what you think.

I dunno how often they go to Europe, but if you ever get a chance they are a must see live band.

Yeah, it is a bit similar to Nico, but without such a husky voice.

Talidemon (aka Lady Morgan) - Nitez into Dreamz
http://www.myspace.com/talidemon

I cannot praise her music enough. Despite her love of the Saturn and what bias I may have formed because of that, she truly is an amazing rapper and an equally amazing singer.

I love that kind of electro music. It's in the same vein of The Hacker if I'm right.

fl0w · Post by **fl0w** » Sat Nov 04, 2006 8:17 pm

The album is quite calm, sometimes almost ambient, but the "limited" edition comes with an extra CD full of tracks previously available on vinyl, like "Sunstroke", "Rykketid"...

I fond Trentemoller is one of the only "minimal" artists who's not boring!

Oh, Vincere, you like rap/hip-hop, you should definitely listen to "Music for tu madre" by J-Zone, wonderful!

YBO2 - Alienation -- It's been awhile since I've heard some quality noise rock. Screeching guitar, some good drumming (Ruins guy), pained wailing. Ahh.
Flying Saucer Attack - Further -- perfect winter album

and Immolation

I'm just waiting for this topic to be locked.

Why would this be locked? Their seems to be a good amount of quality music discussion and info sharing happening, as well as opinion sharing.

Rob · Post by **Rob** » Sun Nov 05, 2006 12:30 am

It's typical to lock threads when they get too large. Then comes a new thread.

Dale · Post by **Dale** » Sun Nov 05, 2006 12:40 am

Funny: Converge are playing here in a week with Some Girls. I was probably going anyway, but your endorsement clinched the deal. Thanks, AK.

So, in before the lock:

Von LMO - Tranceformer (Future Language 2.001) (compilation of Future Language and the original Tranceformer comp.)
Faith No More - Angel Dust
Boris - Akuma no Uta
Massive Attack - Protection
V/A - It Came From the Pacific Northwest 7" (thanks again, Pa)
Pain Teens/God and Texas split 7"

The vinyl of Edgar Winter's White Trash-Roadwork

Thouh I pretty much just listen to sides 2 and 3. 2 has a great solo by Johnny Winter who guest appears and a good mix of soloing and melody with Back In the USA. While Side 3 is just one song, Tobacco Road has absolutely amazing perfomances by Rick Derringer and Edgar Winter and a great melody too.

picked up the other day:

The Fall's Bend Sinister and I Am Kurious Oranj as well as Neil Young's Zuma in a 3 for £15 deal. All quality. I'm amazed at how good the Kurious Oranj is, especially as it originally was a backing live show for a ballet!

Also been checking out a load of Deerhoof stuff sinse their show supporting the Flaming Lips, as well as Dr Dog as a result of their support of the Magic Numbers.

Also listening to Brian Eno's The Drop

Currently listening again to the wonderful original Hellsing OST (Raid). Wish I could find some more music by this artist...

Tom Waits' fresh released album is very nice too. well maybe "nice" would be the wrong term for waits' music though

I assume you are refering to the upcoming 3 disc set? I am also itching to pick it up too although I am not sure its been released here yet. I would give a up kidney to seel the man play live.
