SpiritCrusher2 10.13.14	Ecdysis stream: http://noisey.vice.com/blog/horrendous-ecdysis-lp-stream
Keyblade 10.13.14	Still need to hear the new Horrendous, and have 6 high on my to-listen list. 5 looks cool too
Gnocchi 10.13.14	Short list,
ScuroFantasma 10.13.14	been meaning to listen to 5
Donchivo 10.13.14	artificial brain is neat too... but 4 is such a monolith of an album.
Archelirion 10.13.14	Slugdge - Gastronomicon is genuinely probably mine. Such a good album. 1 and 4 kick arse too, as does Artificial Brain.
tempest-- 10.13.14	pre-ordered horrendous the other day im psyched
SpiritCrusher2 10.13.14	I know the list is short, I was too lazy, but these are my favs + that bolzer's ep
SpiritCrusher2 10.13.14	oh yea, gastronomicon is awesome too
Lowder91bird 10.13.14	Sweven is my favorite from this list. However, I would have to say my favorite DM album of 2014 so far is Artificial brian's Labyrinth of Constellations.
adace1 10.13.14	Tie between 1 and 4 for me.
adr 10.13.14	need to check 1 and 3, the rest are all awesome on here. also new Autopsy and Teitanblood - Death
ShadowRemains 10.13.14	4 and 5
DungeonBoy 10.13.14	1 and 4 rule. I can't get into 2.
scottpilgrim10 10.13.14	Sweven is the best here considering I haven't heard any of the other ones. Other just metal records I love from this year is the new every time I die and the new locktender album
DikkoZinner 10.13.14	4 & Incantation
emester 10.13.14	4,5
pedro70512 10.13.14	Near Death Condition was pretty wicked.
osmark86 10.13.14	haven't heard 1,5-6 yet so will have to get on that asap.
titanslayer 10.13.14	I haven't listened to much death metal this year. I'll have to check these. My AOTY is probably gonna be howls of ebb unless something really blows me away
SpiritCrusher2 10.13.14	howls of ebb is great, but yea, you should check at least 1, 2 and 4. I've heard all of the albums mentioned in the comments, all good shit. can't wait for new Beyond Creation album, I'm pretty sure it will the best tech-death release this year. that Artificial Brain album was cool, but nothing special imo
titanslayer 10.13.14	Yeah I've been meaning to listen to 1 and 2 I'll try to check out 4 at some time as well
adace1 10.13.14	"can't wait for new Beyond Creation album" Yeah me too, it's gonna slay. Same with the new Bloodbath album.
FruityCatOfDoom 10.15.14	Artificial Brain is worth mentioning yo
pedro70512 10.15.14	New Revocation now tops my list.
SpiritCrusher2 10.15.14	since when is revocation death metal?
SpiritCrusher2 10.15.14	oh new Swallowed is out? SWEET
Pestiferous 10.15.14	-_-
Gnocchi 10.15.14	Hope that's not a serious question...
SpiritCrusher2 10.15.14	contortionist are somewhere in top 20 for sure :p xD btw earthborn evolution has leaked woo
emester 10.15.14	my Death Metal AOTY is either the new Dead Congregation, Howls of Ebb or Execration
emester 10.15.14	dont get me wrong the new Horrendous is great, but it really isnt the most mindblowing thing imo
SpiritCrusher2 10.15.14	I don't think I'll hear anything better than Sweven this year. a lot of these albums are great and all, but I've established some sort of emotional connection with that album, it just hits me on a whole another level. it could become my first 5 in this decade, we'll see
emester 10.15.14	wow, Must be really special to you then. I got it at a 4.5 atm, but as most people on the site know im very generous with my ratings
SpiritCrusher2 10.15.14	yea, I maaaybe overhyped the new Horrendous a bit, but I still think it's a solid 4 and that it's really underappreciated here
emester 10.15.14	lol im was talking bout sweven. but yeah horrendous was pretty good. a solid 3.5 in my book
SpiritCrusher2 10.15.14	haha I know you were, I was responding to your previous comment about Horrendous. I'm just slow at typing I guess :D
ShadowRemains 10.15.14	"I think ZOM will be a serious dmAOTY contender when it comes out too." the album cover for that is badass
pedro70512 10.15.14	It's okay guys, At the Gates is still on the way.
ShadowRemains 10.15.14	lol revocation, if i want good modern thrash i'll listen to vektor kthxbai
pedro70512 10.15.14	yeah but Vektor hasn't released an album this year.
pedro70512 10.15.14	"1. That's not even remotely a dm album." Show me one review of Revocation that doesn't mention death metal. "2. Musically, emotionally, it doesn't touch any of the albums on this list. It's average at best imo." It's got a higher average than every album on this list, so I'm not the only one who thinks that. Not going to argue beyond this. Just defending my opinion, however different it is.
pedro70512 10.15.14	Let's find some common ground. Rorcal (live) Near Death Condition Fallujah Pyrrhon Indian Cannibal Corpse
pedro70512 10.15.14	I'm short on DM for this year to be honest. Will be checking some of the ones mentioned in this thread.
hikingmetalpunk 10.18.14	don't see anything besting 4
