Here it is folks, the last new releases post of the year. As usual here's a few extras:

Eallic: Rake of the Astral Leviathan
Edward Cigarettearms: The Tales Of Mista Bumcrack
Hollow Woods: Cold Winds Cleave the Earth
Khnvm: Portals to Oblivion
Lascaille's Shroud: The Gold Flesh of the Sun
Love Your Witch: Wow! That Sweet Magic
Medenera: Bronzo
Midnartiis: Sinew of Sol
Shotgun Facelift: Dakota Blood Stampede
Syrek: Story

I'd like to take a moment to thank the users that have supported this process and even helped crowd source some info for Dewi and myself when the internet decided to not go our way. As such I'd like to extend an extra special thanks to Staff/Capitan/Sexual-Overlord Dewinged who has taken the lion's share of the workload on these posts regardless of the shared duties. To that point I wouldn't have been able to do this without him.

-is there nothing but metal released in December?-

That's basically how it goes. There's a few hiphop/rap albums with hard to find art but yeah - methul!

Many interesting stuff here. Krolok is a must, but maybe I will check some more too.

Dewinged

Cheers brother, thanks for putting the fat one together, we're DONE.

Now unto some blurbing and then holidays.

@someone There's an historical prominent abundance of metal in December, along with hip hop and self released projects. If you consider there's something that should be included we'll be more happy to include it. Let us know in advance!
