Would like to see what people have been listening to lately basically. Maybe try some of it out. I haven't purchased an album in quite awhile so I'm sniffing out some new stuff. The new Ayreon is on its way but I ordered that awhile back so...

Let's hear em. I listen to all variations of metal so don't shut out any awesome new black metal or death metal (or whatever) releases! (or even oldies I suppose)

edit: that should have been 'purchases' in the title...woops.
 
Loving loving loving: Most recent ROB ROCKand HELLOWEEN (both are 9.5/10s). Man, I can't get enough of these, especially the HELLOWEEN! "As Long As I Fall" is one of the best damn songs I've heard in a while!

Loving:
Got a couple of CHILDREN OF BODOM albums (8/10) and I'm surprisingly happy with them, more than I thought I'd be. Looking forward to them on Gigantour.
AVANTASIA EP's. Both are cool, but short (obviously) so they don't quite make it to the higher level.

Liking:
IRON SAVIOUR's Megatropolis. (7.5/10) This one took a few spins to grow on me, but now I quite like it. It's no "Condition Red", but it's solid.
Newest ELVENKING. (7.5/10) The Divided Heart and Poison (something) are fricking awesome songs, but the rest of the album is quite middle of the road I think. I liked the last album better.

Meh-ing: Newest GAMMA RAY. (5/10) That's a weak album to me. It sounds like a power metal band's first attempt or something.
 
Astral Doors
Elvenking
Jon Oliva's Pain
Pathosray
Andromeda
Circle II Circle
Riverside
Wuthering Heights
 
Quo Vadis - Day Into night

Win dude, that album is amazing. :kickass:

My last few buys were:

Gorguts - Considered Dead/The Erosion Of Sanity
Gorguts - Obscura
Gorguts - From Wisdom To Hate
Death - Scream Bloody Gore
The Mars Volta - The Bedlam In Goliath
Humanoid - Remembering Universe
 
Ayreon - 01011001
The Gathering - A Sound Relief & A Noise Severe DVDs
Virgin Black - Requiem Mezzo Forte
The End was having bundle sales on some items which prompted the Gathering & Virgin Black purchases.
I've not really been purchasing much because I'm trying to save money and most items I can get the best prices if I just wait till PP.
 
SODOM - "M-16" and "Sodom"
DESTRUCTION - "Inventor of Evil" and "Metal Discharge"
KREATOR - "Live Kreation"
BRAINSTORM - "Soul Temptation"
IRON MAIDEN - "Live After Death", "Smoewhere in Time", and Seventh Son of a Seventh Son"

I've been listening to a lot of German thrash lately. I love the German "big three"! MAIDEN I've been jamming to a lot because of the show in N.J. on March 14th. Can't go wrong with IM!
