A thread for placing fresh releases into proper "locations", rating and ranting.
At the moment, I'd say the best release from this year is PORTRAIT's Into The Nothingness. Then there's a gap, then the rest would came. How come I couldn't remind mslf what was released this year Temporary amnesia? |

| I would say Municipal Waste - The Art Of Partying and Pagan Altar - Mythical & Magical (or was it released late 2006??). Very different style of music but still, two very very good records. |

This is a rather strange album, it's quite difficult to get into it, but after several listenings, it's really interesting : a mixture of black metal and doom metal with some atmospheric elements. The vocals are totally insane, not the typical B-M shrieks but a very haunting and desesperate way of singing.
I don't know any of their other releases, it's a friend of mine who convinced me to listen to this album, a very good discovery finally. |

I thought I'd made it perfectly clear that SARCOFAGUS - Core Values is the best one so far?
What else.. Dunno if PAGAN ALTAR was this year or '06, the PORTRAIT 7" was great but I actually liked the demo better.. hm, I'm lousy with keeping up with all the new stuff. |

That one's been growing on me. At first I wasn't really into it because of the production/mastering, but most of the songs are really good. I think it might have been mastered incorrectly, because I hear some weird clicking noises during a few of the songs.

What's this one like? I loved Voice of Wilderness, but I didn't think Tales Along This Road was as good. |

I consider it their best one yet, they drop a lot of the goofy stuff but I suppose thats why alot of people like them,they focused more on songwriting and they toned down the over powering of the accordion takes a back seat this time around but its still there I suppose it just takes a different role and the better riffs are appearent,but I don't like suggesting stuff too often as you might even hate it haha.
I will say the new Paragon is my favorite out of all of them this year though I don't have much to say about it,just download it if you can everyone. |

Well, yeah, there's a lot of material. I thought it'd be great to see how members relate to them, plus I think some stats are necessary.  |
