New Dark Tranquillity maybe by the end of 2009 anyone?

I believe they said they're already writing new material.


And my most anticipated album for 2009 will be the new Aborym album.

Any specific date for this one?

[Zephyrus]

No clue. They haven't made a peep since the middle of this year.

[mutantllama]

This looks like it might be a hell of a year.

[jimmy2010]

Oh Holy Shit,

Lamb Of God.

That shits old school, and they get darker every year.

It's gonna be a great album, and I know this because I am god

Dont bitch.

[mutantllama]

Mournful Congregation - The June Frost (Funeral Doom Metal; Weird Truth) - January 20, 2009

I've never been this pumped for an upcoming album. The Monad of Creation is one of my favorite albums of all time.

[Black Friday]

Didn't Heathen say they'd have a new one out?

[challenge_everything]

I'm still waiting on the new Orphaned Land, Augury, Anathema and Wintersun, all of which were supposed to be 08 releases :-(

Blut Aus Nord - Memoria Vetusta II: Dialogue with the Stars (Black Metal) - 9 Feb 2009.

If it's remotely as good as Memoria Vetusta I, it will be something to behold.

Also I am looking forward to new releases by Gorgoroth, Thorns, Pestilence, Psyopus, Absu, Anaal Nathrakh, Suffocation, Virgin Black, Amorphis, Insomnium, Agalloch, Diablo Swing Orchestra and The Axis of Perdition.

[Onder]

Yeah shit the new Pestilence.

EDIT: Here's a recording of a drumtrack taken from their official. I'm really really curious about how it turns out because, TBQH, I even love Spheres.

This I want to hear, though probably not for the same reason. If this album is a return to old style, it would clearly condradict Vlad's philosophy of evolution.

[V.V.V.V.V.]

To be fair, however, BAN originally had a track purported to be from Odinist on their Myspace that really DID sound like a return to that old kind of sound. It wasn't used on Odinist. Confronted by our very own genocide roach/Ryan in an interview, Vindsval stated "Don’t worry, this track will be released on another project, in fact we have too much material and that’s not always easy to organize our work, haha." He said it won't be on MVII but it will be on another project. A couple sources including himself in that interview claim there will be a new The Eye album.

[Ultimate_Symphony]

Interesting, so it would go on a different path I guess.

Edit: Just read the interview and fuck, where's that lighteater EP he's talking about? I guess we'll just have to wait longer for a new album.

I agree. I felt the saw with with the new Mgla but that album has grown on me a little while the new Arckanum hasn't.

Wtf Pestilence has Peter Wildoer on drums now? That's good cause Marco Foddis was always the weak link in Pestilence.

Good for him, this is a first good band he ever joined.

[Runk]

I agree actually, but he's always played good drums in the shitty bands he's been in.

[Krigloch the Furious]

I think there's a new Spawn of Possession too, not sure.
