Wizard 12.30.11	http://pervertthechurch.blogspot.com/2011/12/wizards-top-20-metal-albums-of-2011.html
Megadeth 12.30.11	where am i
Wizard 12.30.11	Probably not in 2011.
AGuyIsWatchingYou 12.30.11	YOU CAN'T MAKE ME DO IT
Wizard 12.30.11	I promise a guy will be watching you if you click the link.
AngelofDeath 12.30.11	Oh, Lord, you really put the new Morbid Angel on there? smh
Wizard 12.30.11	Hahahaha I thought it was funny.
pcar 12.30.11	Surprised not to see Cormorant - Dwellings on there.
Wizard 12.30.11	Never heard of them. If it's post-metal, I will pass but if it's something related to dm/ bm/ sludge etc., you have my ears perked!
ShadowRemains 12.30.11	good list hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Ovrot 12.30.11	Skraeckoedlan - Appeltradet yeah
ShadowRemains 12.30.11	yeah so many catchy riffs in that
Cells 12.30.11	awesome fuckin list
Ovrot 12.30.11	good vocals too
Wizard 12.31.11	Never heard of Skraeckoedlan. Sounds made up or really gay.
ShadowRemains 12.31.11	best comparison i can come with is if you blended swedish graveyard with kyuss and kylesa
Relinquished 12.31.11	"Never heard of Skraeckoedlan. Sounds made up or really gay" no it's not it's actually really good and you can trust me more than anyone else
pcar 12.31.11	"Never heard of them. If it's post-metal, I will pass but if it's something related to dm/ bm/ sludge etc., you have my ears perked!" It like ... blackened-melodic-progressive-sludge metal. Really hard to put it into a single genre http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLaNL5_yg1g sample
Acanthus 12.31.11	Awesome list, great descriptions and as for the guilty pleasure I adore it's album art.
Inveigh 12.31.11	nice list, just bookmarked it for future reference. your top 5 is very similar to mine for metal this year.
Wizard 12.31.11	Sounds goof Shadows and Relinquished as I do enjoy all of those bands. HSThomas, new Corrupted is good but it's not just too drawn out in some areas. I did give props to it though (Honorable Mentions). pcar, that sample sounded good, gonna give the full album a listen later. Thanks everyone!
Ovrot 12.31.11	m/
Mordecai. 12.31.11	did you even hear the new whitesnake?
Hyperion1001 12.31.11	or new stryper?
Metalstyles 01.01.12	Cool list Karl, a couple of albums we agree upon and some that I should look into.
Wizard 01.01.12	I heard the new Antlers and Bon Iver records and thought maybe I should include them on the list cuz Sputnatch might think I'm super indie. But then I thought, nah, indie is for fags and decided against it. Also, updated the list (changed Aethyrvorous to Antediluvian).
Wizard 01.01.12	See how uncool I am around these premises?
Hyperion1001 01.01.12	5/5
Hordewolf 01.01.12	If Blut Aus Nord is France's best black metal band I founded the LLN back in 1760.
Hyperion1001 01.01.12	its mutiilation
Wizard 01.01.12	Hordewolf, look at BAN's track record and consistency throughout the 17 years they've been around (not counting their last album which was still decent if you love industrial/ droney metal). That alone makes them stand on top of the other 10 or so bands that have put out quality bm from France. And it's all opinion dude so relax with the humorous sarcasm hahaha.
AngelofDeath 01.01.12	Peste Noire by a fucking long shot.
Hordewolf 01.01.12	"dude so relax with the humorous sarcasm hahaha." Isn't that already and indication of me being relaxed? But there are some quite good BM bands from France. DSO, Peste Noire, Pensees Nocturnes, Anorexia Nervosa, technically Aes Dana, Belenos and most of the LLN shtick.
Hyperion1001 01.01.12	pensees nocturnes and anorexia nervosa are both really bad though
Hordewolf 01.01.12	Even for purists there is enough good stuff.
Hyperion1001 01.01.12	http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaV_tTuhQbc
Wizard 01.02.12	Hahahaha I was simply relating to your sarcasm Hordewolf ; ). I never said that their wasn't talent from that country, I was just stating why I think BAN do it for me more so than most bm bands from France. As for Peste Noire, too fucking weird and carnivalish for my liking.
gabethepiratesquid 01.02.12	So you'd recommend the new Agoraphobic Nosebleed/Despise You split? I like both of them but I didn't know if it was worth getting. Also, missing Ghoul - Transmission Zero Unexpect - Fables of the Sleepless Empire Woods of Desolation - Torn Beyond Reason
Hordewolf 01.02.12	"As for Peste Noire, too fucking weird and carnivalish for my liking." Sounds quite much like later stuff, have you heard anything from the earlier ones? (la sanie des siecles is not really carnivalish)
Wizard 01.03.12	Hordewolf, I own everything by them minus their new album and I can't fall in love with them. gabetherpiratesquid, that split is awesome seeing as both bands put out nothing but quality anyways. Also, I've never heard Ghoul and both of those other bands were mediocre this year.
Hordewolf 01.03.12	Call me Wolf. Also, I was just guessing since you said "carnivalish" (which is quite fitting for their latest effort) Have you ever heard Verdunkeln or Geist?
Wizard 01.03.12	Not really into those bands tbqh, heard a track or two and was turned off. As for Peste, they've always had that carnivalish sound to them.
MO 01.03.12	fuck yes Batillus and Leviathan
Wizard 01.03.12	Batillus should be on a lot of lists but too many faggots overlooked it.
Inveigh 01.03.12	did you listen to Ravencult's album from this year Wiz? I thought it was pretty good, but I can see a lot of bm elitists/purists not liking it as much.
KILL 01.03.12	lol m/
