      Just purchased a record that has blown me away. I never thought I would ever be that into Converge. All We Love We Leave Behind is not only IMO the record of the year but may be the best record I have heard in a long time. I am a huge fan of music but, not a huge fan of hardcore. This record i can only describe as ferociously beautiful it has melted my face. I'm off to the local record store to pick up the rest of Converge's albums. Outstanding work Nate and company.

        Still regret that I missed them when they came through Houston.  Stinking kids gave me strep throat and I felt like ass that weekend.

            after hearing it for the first time today (like 5-6times on repeat or more) i really start to like it…a lot actually!
            thanks for pointing it out Jeff:

                            Both of those made it on my year end list.  Your stuff usually does Nate.  Fucking love Doomriders...

                                  Not in any particular order, but here is a preliminary list of what has stuck with me from this year…

                                  Converge - All Love we Leave Behind
                                  Joyce Manor - Of All Things I Will Soon Grow Tired
                                  Old Man Gloom - No
                                  Kendrick Lamar - good kid, m.A.A.d. city
                                  Neurosis: Honor Found in Decay
                                  Blut Aus Nord - 777 - Cosmosophy
                                  Pig Destroyer - Book Burner
                                  Hop Along - Get Disowned
                                  Vattnet Viskar – Vattnet Viskar EP
                                  Cheap Girls - Giant Orange
                                  haarp - Husks
                                  Dragged Into Sunlight - Widowmaker

                                  Top Three
                                  Pallbearer - Sorrow and Extinction
                                  Ab Soul - Control System
                                  Witch Mountain - South of Salem

                                  Favorite re-release
                                  Kid Brother Collective - Highway Miles.  This one's kinda special, was randomly given this CD at some show quite a few years ago and it's always stuck with me.  Great album by some dudes from Flint, MI. One of my friends (http://www.lansingscene.com/lprecords/) decided to re release it vinyl, plus I get the chance to see them play in a few days!  It's also streaming at punk news I believe for those interested…

                                  My best discovery of the year goes to the LA Gemstones: Pop and Rock Compilations.  A whole bunch of great 60's pop and rock (http://crystalsphere1.blogspot.com/search/label/V%2FA%20-%20L.A.%20Gemstones)

                                  and then there's my guiltiest pleasure of the year, which is Ke$ha's Warrior.

                                  A little disjointed, but I think that about does it…

                                      I just want to take a moment to say Godspeed, Mike Scaccia. Mike was the guitarist of Ministry and Rigor Mortis, and for a few years, he was the Gibson Guitar rep when I worked at Guitar Center. He died on stage last night. He was a super great dude, and had some great stories, and was a killer guitarist as well. Bummer.

                                          Had a seizure in the middle of a Rigor Mortis show in Ft. Worth at a club called The Rail. Told the light guy to turn off the strobes and then collapsed. Unbelievable. 😞
