03.27.26 | I think Ingrina - Ette Lys is an overlooked masterpiece. I also recommend Lvmen - Mondo, it's a Czech band clearly inspired by older Neurosis, but they have a style of their own and they absolutely rule.
Anyways, 3 is 1 but all of the names from the list are amazing of couse. Inle is sooo good. |

03.27.26 | battle of mice - a day of nights |
gabba
03.27.26 | So the list contains one album per band, right? I wonder how it would look like without this rule. I guess the upper house would be heavily dominated by Neurosis, Isis and CoL. |
MementoMori
03.27.26 | Yeah, I went one album per band, otherwise I would just be enumerating the top discographies for most of it. Lvmen is a good shout (like them a lot). View their work primarily as metallically-inflected post rock but you are right to mention them. Will check battle of mice (have not listened to them yet). |

03.27.26 | Sweet list - everything here is gold. |
cloakanddagger
03.27.26 | Great list, although I'd add Obscure Sphinx, Agalloch, Blindead and maybe The Mire |
Colliiiin
03.27.26 | Nice list, cool to see 11 mentioned. They were kinda legendary in Ontario. I would rec Quietly by Mouth of the Architect, if you've never heard it. |
MementoMori
03.27.26 | Obscure Sphinx is a good shout (Void Mother is great). The Mire has a couple of records I (mildly) enjoy but they probably would not feature in a list like this for me. Blindead is a band I still need to check. Have heard Quietly, but I (much) prefer The Ties That Blind to that record (which is the only Mouth of the Architect that really spoke to me thus far). |

Humanfly - Awesome Science
Pijn - Denial
Russian Circles - Empros
ØLTEN - Ambiance
Old Man Glood - Christmas

Irepress - Sol Eye Sea I
Exotic Animal Petting Zoo - Tree of Tongues

Saw Pelican live a few weeks ago and he has definitely improved over the years. |

03.28.26 | "Latitudes - Shapeshifting"
Think you meant Individuation here, though I would go with Agonist. |
Jebull
03.28.26 | Oh oops, yeah I did. Agonist is also excellent, agreed |
MementoMori
03.28.26 | Latitudes is a great shout (prefer Part Island for which I once wrote what I think, retrospectively, was not a very good review). East of the Wall is another really good addition (that I should have thought of). |
