What all have you heard this year that's came out this year (so no old music that you got into now) and what did you think of it ? For Me:
Accept - Stalingrad (Heavy Metal) Architects - Daybreaker (Metalcore) Biohazard - Reborn In Defiance (Rap/Crossover/Groove) Back Moth - The Killing Jar (Stoner/Doom) Corrosion Of Conformity - S/T (Doom/Stoner/Crossover) Kreator - Phantom Antichrist (Thrash) Jethro Tullish - Thick As A Brick 2 (Prog) Lamb Of God - Resolution (Metalcore/Groove) Marilyn Manson - Born Villain Mars Volta - Noctourniquet (Prog) Napalm Death - Utilitarian (Death/Grind) Shadows Fall - Fire From he Sky (Metalcore) Soulfly - Enslaved (Thrash/Metalcore) This is all of what I've heard from 2012. I liked it all. -------------  My Blog: http://kingcrimsonprog.wordpress.com/ |

Hmm, let's see, I'll try to remember: Beyond the Bridge - The Old Man & The Spirit (LOVE) Suspyre - Suspyre (LOVE) Circus Maximus - Nine (LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE) Sonata Arctica - When Stones Grow Her Name (Love - more respect to that band than ever IMO) Affector - Harmagedon (LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE) Flying Colors (um...sad face to that one) Hemina - Synthetic (haven't quite decided what I think) Dreamscape - Everlight (there are songs I really like and others I'm kinda meh about) Status Minor - Ouroboros (kind of the same as above - a couple songs that blew me away) Xandria - Neverworld's End (pretty darn cool) Juggernaut - All Too Human (definitely like, not quite up to love...yet) Fringe Kitchen - Unwritten Pages (I think I might love this one...not sure yet) Pretty good year so far for Progressive Metal, I'll say. ------------- http://tinyurl.com/cy43zzh" rel="nofollow - My 2012 List

Oh, and how could I forget: Epica - Requiem For the Indifferent (lots of stars from me to that one too) Yup, I'm having a good year. In more ways than one! ------------- http://tinyurl.com/cy43zzh" rel="nofollow - My 2012 List

I'll only give a draft score on the MMA system for these. Ratings could go up or down. No order this time: Ecliptica - Journey Saturnine (3*) Gorod - A Perfect Absolution (3.5*) Spawn of Possession - Incurso (4.5*) Borknagar - Urd (4.5*) Flying Colors - Flying Colors (4*) Hour of Penance - Sedition (4*) Dark Empire - From Refuge to Ruin (4*) Accept - Stalingrad (4*) Syn Ze Şase Tri - Sub Semnul Lupului (4*) Nachtvorst - Silence (4*) Carach Angren - Where the Corpses Sink Forever (4.5*) Order of Nine - Seventh Year of the Broken Mirror (4*) I have also heard most of Summoning the Bygones by Bilocate but couldn't get through it in a single sitting. Probably 2* at most for that one at the moment. ------------- Earn Money Online (NOT a scam): https://premium.gg2u.org?referrer=adg211288" rel="nofollow - GG2U https://adamsfilmcorner.quora.com/" rel="nofollow - Adam's Film Corner on Quora |

You all laughed at me when I made an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of my 2012 listens, but who's laughing now?!  
Those are the metal albums which I've listened to enough to give a rating to (and they copied over quite nicely!). As for the ones I haven't...that would probably take up a whole page. If all goes well, I'll have a much bigger and better end-of-year list than I did for 2011, and hopefully I'll share the sentiments of my fellow collabs on more albums than I did last year. |
