I like seeing everyone's top 10 lists, I always find a few amazing albums I missed somehow.

Yeah I'm making a big Spotify playlist of all the stuff I haven't listened to so I can go out and pick up albums I like.

Damnit I forgot Wormwitch - Heaven that Dwells Within and Judiciary - Surface Noise came out this year too. It's my top 12 then.

I think Cobalt - Slow Forever is probably my album of the decade, though if they hadn't turned out to be nazi's it would have been MGLA - Exercises in Futility

Catching up on December releases since I was slacking and just listening to 2019 power and symphonic releases, I missed that Stillness put out another album. Critically this guy's work isn't so hot, but I find pretty much every Stillness release to be beautiful atmoblack and this new record isn't an exception. Check it out if you like slow acoustic filled winter jams.

This has been exactly the kind of stuff I'm in the mood for, that and voidgaze or whatever the genre is called now.

John Gossard gave an interview last year in which he mentioned he has vague plans to repress it. Given his work pace with Dispirit though I wouldn't hold my breath. Obnoxious BM flex: I have a copy that I paid more than anyone should for a record but a lot less than it goes for now. I'd still buy the hell out of a reissue though since mine's not in great shape.

Happiness is a warm
Turbo Plasma Rifle


Oh boy, AOTY time!

International section:
Cattle Decapitation - Death Atlas
Dawn Ray'd - Behold Sedition Plainsong
Exhumed - Horror
Gatecreeper - Deserted
Hath - Of Rot And Ruin
Hellripper - Black Arts & Alchemy
Insomnium - Heart Like a Grave
Misery Index - Rituals of Power
Opeth - In Cauda Venenum
Ripper - Sensory Stagnation
Sedimentum - Demo
Suppression - Repugnant Remains
Strigoi - Abandon All Faith
Tanith - In Another Time

Danish section:
Fordærv - Knep Dig Selv Ihjel
Ligæder - Den Tomme Menneskehed
Slægt - Black Bombs
Undergang - Ufrivillig Donation af Vitale Organer
Gabestok - Tre

Top album out of all of them is probably Strigoi - Abandon All Faith, because Greg can do no wrong.

E: haven't had the time to check out the new Devourment album, maybe I should.

Hey thanks for these! I started learning Norwegian recently and have been digging around for all kinds of nordic music and such. I’ve got the itch. Denmark is extremely good at metal and I’m positive I have a bunch of blind spots to fix.

Yeah I’ve bought a ton of records but not many that are quite that sought after. I can’t even remember why I got two but I remember someone saying it was an incredible record so I may have drunkenly bought it twice. Probably like $40 for the two.

You and whose knees?

Urgh that new Saccage album absolutely rips. Such a huge step up from their older stuff.

Didn't see these mentioned in 2019 wrapup chat yet:

Sadistic Ritual - Visionaire of Death (thrash)
Sinmara - Hvisl Stjarnanna (disso black)
Abyssal - A Beacon In The Husk (death/doom, I guess)
Vacivus - Annihilism (death)
Rendered Helpless - Suffer, Seraphim (slam)
Fvneral Fvkk - Carnal Confessions (epic doom, despite the name)
