DDD's 2014 picks
1Every Time I Die
From Parts Unknown


Hardcore; Metalcore

Debatably their best release. Definitely their most abrasive one. Sick&Fun album.
2Morbus Chron
Sweven


OSDM

Beautiful piece of prog/psych OSDM. Swedish smoothness with simply delightful almost acoustic moments.
3Thou
Heathen


Doom, Sludge

Definitely their toughest release. I remember trying to get into Thou with it and just putting it aside for a while. When it clicked...it clicked!
4Lord Mantis
Death Mask


Doom, Sludge

One of the most disturbing and suffocating albums I came across (starting with the cover!). I can rec the track Negative Birth, but you're on your own man...
5Behemoth
The Satanist


Black Metal, Death Metal

Highly acclaimed, decade's sound defining and a turning point in the band's sound, back to a more Black Metal approach.
6Slugdge
Gastronomicon


Slugs BDM

Lord Gastropod's guided journey through the Slug's rebellion against the Human kind. A metal pun per track!
7Plebeian Grandstand
Lowgazers


Black Metal, Hardcore

If you think there's still hope for this World, check Thrvst video ASAP - https://youtu.be/ybo-sfbEMYs
8Full of Hell and Merzbow
Full of Hell and Merzbow


Experimental, Noise, Hardcore

Thrum in the Deep! High Fells m/m/m/ this is the FoH I talk about m/m/m/ disturbing release m/m/m/ one of top 3 FoH releases for me, with Roots and Trumpeting Ecstasy.
9Inter Arma
The Cavern


Sludge, Post, BM

Amazing 1 song EP, 44 minutes of songwriting excellency and genre bending. Windhand's vocalist also appears here as guest.
10The Mire
Glass Cathedrals


Post/Prog Metal

A true hidden gem here TKS to sputuser Shuyin. Personally this touches some Poison The Well and Deftones buttons with a PostMetal vibe (CoL and The Ocean). False Idols, Triple Gemini and Dark Sun are my faves.
11Horrendous
Ecdysis


Death Metal

This album starts simply beautiful and awesome. The leading pinkfloydish melting solos are simply my beach!
12Warforged
Essence Of The Land


Blackened Death Metal, Prog

Debut EP. 15 minutes of awesomeness.
13Mastodon
Once More 'Round the Sun


Prog Metal, Sludge

Although this album got a bad reception (both from me and the general audience) it ended up growing a lot. Chimes at Midnight is a very big track on me.
14Soen
Tellurian


Prog Metal

Probably their best release, discussing with Lykaia. Great dig if you enjoy both Opeth and Tool.
15Eyehategod
Eyehategod


SludgeDoomHXC

EHG in a very playful jam mode. Cool intelligeble vocal hooks. Punk mood af. Still badass. I'm oficially a fan of this band's discog and this was a great comeback after 14 years. Recd Tracks - Flags and Cities Bound; Agitation! Propaganda!
16Crosses
Crosses


Alt Rock, Electronic

What can I say? Do it with your girl...this sweet little Chino project.
17Sensible Soccers
8


Minimal, Electronic, Psych

And now a break for some non metal Portuguese releases you could dig. This is the debut from a group who's gaining foreign relevance. Cool for relaxing days.
18Bruno Pernadas
How Can We Be Joyful in a World Full of Knowledge?


Jazz Fusion, Psych.

"Lovely tunes ranging from jazz fusion to latin percussion-led loungey melodies to calm ambient, all having a spacey knack. It's lush, it's well composed, it's chill, it's sweet. All you gotta do now is wait for a warm and quiet Summer evening to put this on." by Dedex, couldn't put it better X) Everybody should listen Huzoor tune at least once.
19Capitao Fausto
Pesar o Sol


Psychedelic Rock

These dudes kinda started a modern psychedelic rock scene here in Portugal and this is one of their strongest releases.
20Thou
Algiers


DoomSludge

What? Thou again? Well nothing they do is even close to weak...even every compilation is a must. Here's one.
21Downfall of Gaia
Aeon Unveils the Thrones of Decay


Post Black Metal

Goes as hard as beautiful. Moody post BM outfit.
22Darkspace
Dark Space III I


Black Metal, Experimental

Breathing evil bleakness.
23Artificial Brain
Labyrinth Constellation


Death Metal, Black Metal, Experimental

Organic Metal Madness. New fave band.
24Disentomb
Misery


Death Metal

Wait and beg for the grooves.
25Godflesh
A World Lit Only by Fire


Post Metal, Industrial
26Zapruder
Fall In Line


Metalcore, Post HXC, Math Rock

Definitely a step towards their more experimental outfit.
28Vi Som Alskade Varandra Sa Mycket
Den sorgligaste musiken i varlden


Post HXC, Emo

Great Post compositions with high and latent emotional levels.
29Hail the Sun
Wake


Post HXC, Math Rock

Yeah album is pretty sweet...everyone is super talented.
30The Contortionist
Language


Prog Metal

Beautiful landscapes of ebb and flow.
31Code Orange
I Am King


Metalcore

The band you all love to hate.
32Aborted
The Necrotic Manifesto


DeathGrind

Definitely not my fave from Aborted. They did the excellent job though,
33Deadwood
Picturing a Sense of Loss


Black gaze, Psych

If you kinda like Deafheaven but crave for better songwriting.
34Dead Congregation
Promulgation of the Fall


OSDM

A sea of OSDM riffs.
35Cannibal Corpse
A Skeletal Domain


DeathGrind

TKS Notrap. This one hits the 4 mark on every aspect, except for tenderness.
36Old Man Gloom
The Ape of God I


Post Metal, Hardcore

Heavy, frightening, a dark take on Post Metal.
37Revocation
Deathless


Thrash Metal

Too many riffs!
38Temple of Void
Of Terror And The Supernatural


Death Doom

As promising debut as the cover suggests. Awesome deathdoom piece. Living proof DM can be really cool and extreme without tons of speed.
39Spectral Lore
III


Atmo Black Metal Folk

A journey through mountains and seas...sun and storms...heaven and hell.
40Winterfylleth
The Divination Of Antiquity


Black Metal Folk

I guess my BM journey is endless, and it just started. Great release!
41Pallbearer
Foundations of Burden

It grew...
42Internal Rot
Mental Hygiene

...of the best kind...and the fastest, probably.
43Emma Ruth Rundle
Some Heavy Ocean


Indie Folk
