I was wondering when the first half time lists would appear.. I will obviously partake! Wont rank em yet though.

Noneuclid - Metatheosis
Sun Kil Moon - Benji
Cormorant - Earth Diver
Behemoth - The Satanist
Gazpacho - Demon
Aenaon - Extance

---

Serdce - Timelessness,
The Atlas Moth - The Old Believer,
Son of Aurelius - Under a Western Sun; these are really good and might end up on the list later, but haven't given them enough time yet. I'm also eagerly awaiting the new releases from especially Opeth and Ne Obliviscaris!

The Open Mike Eagle record is killer

[riffblaster general]

Wovenhand is my number one for sure

[riffblaster general]

First aid kit, bob mould, lecherous gaze, Emma Ruth rundle, cutthroats 9, dan sartain, pink mountaintops, sun kil moon, white lung, skull defekts, and sweetapple all released records I like thusfar.  Also screw the haters I love the new lana del rey record.

For anyone interested we just finished mixing a new old man gloom album.

Generally a huge McBean fan

[derivative666]

I dig the Dan Sartain record it's an nice mix of punk and bluesy rockabilly. I just wished it flowed better.

[riffblaster general]

mclaincausey…. have you heard obliterations?  it's pretty out of character for mcbean but it's a good hc punk record.

[riffblaster general]

i also forgot to include the helms alee record.

[Peter]

Yeah the Helms Alee record was cool, love the artwork as well! Never listened to Wovenhand, but apparently I should..

I have now…

Wouldn't have guessed that wookie had it in him to go that hard. Awesome, thanks!

[emceeQ]

That Emma Ruth Rundle record totally kills it.  Don't know how I forgot that one…

Lookin forward to hearing the new Old Man Gloom Riff...

[Hereforthebeer]

Not to sure if many people outside of OZ would have heard of him, but watched Phil Jamieson do an acoustic set tonight. He is the lead singer of the Australian rock band Grinspoon.  Was an amazing gig,heaps of their old stuff stripped right back!

[DanielAFC]

i watched the stones throw records documentary our vinyl weighs a ton last night. it was fantastic and id highly recommend it to any fans of their artists, or fans of independent music and doing things right in general

[mclaincausey]

Great article on Nick Cave.

See if you can pick out Little Nicky / Damien in this middle school photo (dark little feck!):

[DanielAFC]

Great lyrics and flow, and fantastic production from DOOM, as if anything less would be expected.
