I think EJ will be the only one on here that gets that joke.

I can't think of any albums that came out this year that I liked...

The Biolich 2004 promo was good
The Axis of Advance CD that came out was good....But I still can't remember the title

blah..

I keep seeing Avril Lavigne popping up in your lists EJ and all I can do is pull a Jon Stewart and say, "whaaaaa????"

Greg · Post by **Greg** » Tue December 7th, 2004, 5:07 pm

Avril Lavigne is my metal goddess heroine and I will not tolerate any badmouthing of her!!!!

She is my GIRLFRIEND OKAY SHEESH

Well for me the albums were not ones that came out neccessarily in 2004, but I will name the ones I bought this year that I really thought were good.

Opeth-Damnation
Opeth-Blackwater Park
Agalloch-The Mantle
Moonspell-Darkness and Hope
Tristania-World of Glass
Therion-Sirius B/Lemuria
George Strait-50 number 1s (fuck off)

Alabama-Greatest hits (again fuck off) :ph34r:
Hammerfall-Crimson Thunder

Will buy in 2005:
Rest of Opeth's collection
Ayreon's new one
perhaps some After Forever
Bathory-Blood and Ice (but want that now) :m3t4l:

NP: Iron Maiden-Search For Truth

slowfinger · Post by **slowfinger** » Wed December 8th, 2004, 1:47 am

the music i listened to the most in 2004 was created by

mastodon
agoraphobic nosebleed
ion dissonance
pig destroyer
dying fetus
candiria
mnemic
shadows fall
lamb of god
black label society

and i dusted of the NAILBOMB, every so often

LAME! If only it were that easy.

Opeth-Damnation
Opeth-Blackwater Park
Agalloch-The Mantle
Moonspell-Darkness and Hope
Tristania-World of Glass
Therion-Sirius B/Lemuria
George Strait-50 number 1s (fuck off)
Alabama-Greatest hits (again fuck off)

Those are odd titles for country CDs. I wouldn't expect gentlemen of that calibre to resort to harsh language, especially on an album title.

Will buy in 2005:
Rest of Opeth's collection
Ayreon's new one
perhaps some After Forever
Bathory-Blood and Ice (but want that now) :m3t4l:

I'm in the market for more Bathory m'self, having liked what we've played on WREKage from them lately. Then again, I bought a Venom 2-CD 'best of' (handy for the Venom requests that we tend to get), and...it's vanished. So, why bother? I'll probably just lose it too. :wh4cky:

Muzt also find more Mnemic. And those damned Aeturnus and Summoning CDs that still elude me. And, if Deathgasm has any, some stuff by Rwake.

(Still working on a list...)

Fn Dan · Post by **Fn Dan** » Thu December 16th, 2004, 1:28 am

Two albums that definitely deserve some notice are:

Vader - The Beast
Pro-Pain - Fistful Of Hate

Had I heard these two albums a couple of weeks ago, they would have made my list. :m3t4l:

DarkWolfen · Post by **DarkWolfen** » Thu December 16th, 2004, 1:56 am

Yeah I know, Paul, I need to find some more Mercenary, another progpower band. One song I heard was really good, heavy and frankly different. :huh:

Plus maybe some Orphaned Land. No one sounds like them. So the expansion of new metal goes on. :m3t4l:
