Close To A World Below was my first Immolation album and I still think it’s my favorite.

Malaria posted:So I got into Immolation back when their newest album, Atonement came out and people in this thread were talking it up. That album does indeed rule. Like every drat song is good, and I have probably listened to that album like 100 times. What album of theirs do I go to next? If you've never seen them you should definitely go bc they have their show down to a science and it's insanely fun. But more than once is a waste of $$ unless youre a superfan bc its the same thing everytime.

Shot in the dark, but has anyone ordered from Torture Garden Pictures recently? I ordered an Insect Warfare record from him a few months ago and he hasn't been responding to emails.

Haven't dealt with them but at this point I would probably just put in a claim. Speaking of, I finally put in claims against AMM  To celebrate I ordered a couple records from Those Opposed, who are always prompt and carry some of the best french meloblack in the game.Edit: Myke C-Town put out a video yesterday about the AMM situation. I watched it with my girlfriend who I've been keeping up to date on everything that's been going on but apparently she thought I was exaggerating/being unreasonable before because when she watched Myke explain everything she was in a constant state of "WHAT, THEY DID WHAT? HOW DID THEY THINK THEY WOULD GET AWAY WITH THIS?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPU7h_W9v_M

Cannibal Corpse was loving awesome live. I ended up shirtless in the pit for the end part of I Cum Blood/Stripped, Raped and Strangled/Hammer Smashed Face. Best show ever. Also thanks for the Immolation recommendations. Hate Eternal(one of the openers) was pretty cool too. Malaria fucked around with this message at 06:53 on Nov 14, 2018 |

Cannibal Corpse, no matter how "mainstream" or "intro to death metal" they are, always put on a good show. They're easily one of my favorite bands live. There's some bands that are good live, there's some that are best in the studio, and Cannibal Corpse go up there with SOD and Putrid Pile to fit in that category.

I've never been a big Cannibal Corpse fan, but I still go catch them live whenever I can make it. I don't own any of their records or even know the songs very well and it's still a loving blast every time.

They're finishing up the European leg of the tour currently, with Kataklysm and The Spirit. I was at the show in Copenhagen two days ago, and it was awe-loving-some.

Since the year is surely coming to end, let me be the first to present the dreaded "year end" list. I prefer to say a "most listened to" list versus a end all be all "TOP 25 RAWK DEATH DOOM BLACK METAL OF 2018" list. It's been a rather fruitful year and I know we still have a Obliteration album to look forward to next week. What musical gems have you enjoyed this year? Yob - Our Raw Heart Sleep - The Sciences Tribulation - Down Below High on Fire - Electric Messiah Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats - Wasteland Behemoth - I Loved You at Your Darkest Graveyard - Peace Horrendous - Idol Haunt - Burst Into Flame Sumac - Love In Shadow Cauldron - New Gods Unleashed - The Hunt for White Christ Windhand - Eternal Return Tomb Mold - Manor of Infinite Forms Gruesome - Twisted Prayers Black Viper - Hellions of Fire Watain - Trident Wolf Eclipse Alkaloid - Liquid Anatomy Zeal & Ardor - Stranger Fruit Conan - Existential Void Guardian Craft - White Noise and Black Metal Portal - Ion Sacred Leather - Ultimate Force Octopus - Supernatural Alliance Age of Taurus - The Colony Slain

Having seen Cannibal Corpse a bunch of times but only having seen Morbid Angel once and Immolation never, I am okay with this. I'll drive to Worcester for that. I hope Morbid plays some older songs this time.

I love the "dreaded" year-end lists because I only pop in and out irregularly so it's good to see everything encapsulated at the end of the year. Like already, I didn't know there was a new Skeletonwitch! It's good!

AOTY lists are great! These are the top 5 albums for me that are above and beyond anything else released, maybe after going through my ratings a bit more I can find a top 10 or beyond: Aorlhac - L'espirit des vents, french melodic black metal Bog Wraith - Omen, blackened deathcore Khemmis - Desolation, doom metal leaning more towards trad Massive Retaliation - Arms of the War God, war metal leaning more towards death Spectral Wound - Infernal Decadence, black metal in the vein of Sargeist

I need to look back at what came out this year before making a list, but I'm glad to see Xenoblight getting some love, I didn't really see anyone talking about that album but it's great. Kriegsmaschine and Ihsahn are the only two that haven't been mentioned that immediately come to mind.

I'll give it a little more time before making my own AOTY list, but at this time I will say that 2018 has been loving insane for good releases. There's a lot of good stuff in my list of saved albums on Spotify that I just haven't been able to give a fair shake to, because there's been so much even better stuff vying for my attention. Also stuff that I listened to for a good bit for a short while, and then almost forgot about because other stuff kept coming up. Nordick fucked around with this message at 22:29 on Nov 14, 2018 |

This year has been incredibly good, but I also spent a lot of it catching up with things I'd missed over the last few years. Most of what I'd put on a list has already been said here, but I'll toss in a few of the highlights anyway: Uada - Cult of a Dying Sun (probably AOTY) Between The Buried And Me - Automata I/II Alkaloid - Liquid Anatomy Deadbird - III: The Forest Within The Tree Slugdge - Esoteric Malacology (I'm a sucker for silly poo poo like this) Also - the new Sigh record is about to drop later this week and what I've heard so far sounds really loving good.
