Shit, it seems I need to buy some of the stuff you all have mentioned, but I dont have the money right now. And good stuff keeps coming every month. I swore I wont dnld anymore, so its quite hard. Especially Melechesh, Sigh, Baroness and The Red Chord so far look really intrigueing.

And Deathmetal_head: its DHG, not DMH.

 

[Salamurhaaja]

in no particular order:

Peeping Tom "Peeping Tom"
Linkin Park "Minutes to Midnight"
Buckethead "Pepper's Ghost"
Gogol Bordello "Super Taranta"
Nightwish "Dark Passion Play" (yeah, yeah, I know... but, much to my own surprise, i really liked the new songs)

Peeping Tom was a 2006 release according to Ipecac, otherwise it
would be on my list too.

The new Nile album is totally awesome

 

[marduk1507]

It really is. I first had problems with it, but its that with albums like these you cant just listen to them, you have to listen carefully, best with headphones, and concentrate on whats going on. Only after several such listens I realized how fantastic the new Nile is.
