Yeah, where the fuck is Bond? Anyway, MF, can you throw out a top 5 of the past few years so that I might venture past The Sword and Mastodon? It'd be much appreciated.

these records still blow me away and are accessible enough that you shouldn't find them too hard to get into if you like the Sword and Mastodon.

Between the Buried and Me - Colors

Baroness - Blue Record

Kylesa - Spiral Shadow

Gojira - The Way of All Flesh

High on Fire - Snakes for the Divine

2012 was a pretty damn good year for hard rock and metal. I could maybe throw together another "homework" post if there is any interest in some of the stuff that came out last year.

I'm not really much of a metalhead, but I've had an obsession with everything stoner/doom for a couple years now. Outside of that I'm not much help.

yeah, I'd say the vast majority of what I'd post in here would lean towards stoner/doom. I'll see about working up a list over the weekend.

you guys who like stoner doom should listen to Samothrace. their new album is fucking fantastic. hints of early Boris. full album in the youtube vid. it's worth 35 mins of your time.

The Metal Thread

I haven't heard much lately that has gotten me excited.

The newest sword album had some tasty riffs i enjoyed. i of course loved the new baroness album but that seemed almost more hard rock than metal (not that the sword album was confusing anyone for morbid angel)

I actually went backand was listening to the shrinbuilder album over the weekend. I still love that shit.

One album i missed last year was the newest neurosis. How was that?

i'm actually kind of disappointed by that Sword album. Warp Riders kicked so much ass but this one just misses the mark. haven't listened to the new Neurosis yet. i forgot that came out.

Enjoying Kylesa, Rainbows Are Free and Black Pyramid.

i actually felt the oppisite. I was actually disapointed in Warp Riders but really liked the new one.
I really dig the Veals of Isis, Dying Earth, Execrator, and Eyes of the Storm witch a lot

I've really only been exploring metal for a few months and I have to say Warp Riders is probably the best album (of all genres) I have heard in about a year. Apocryphon doesn't even come close to it.

BurtReynolds · Post by **BurtReynolds** » Mon January 07, 2013 6:05 pm

Seeing Apocryphon live helped me appreciate songs like Cloak of Feathers and especially Seven Sisters more. The song Apocryphon is a cool opener too. I thought the more "Swordy" songs like Eyes of the Stormwitch are pretty bland though.
