I can not fucking wait for Rosetta who plan to release a 3-way split EP on vinyl (only)with Year of No Light and East of the Wall. Don’t know about the other two but I fucking love Rosetta.

Carving Desert Canyons, Axe To Fall, The Great Misdirect

The only albums anyone could possibly need released this year. And I’m going out on a limb with TGM, but how can it be not good, y’know?

Unfortunately, these guys are never gonna compare to Atheist,but,these guys weren’t even the key players (except for the drummer) so why would you even bother trying to compare the two. I was merely talking about what I felt works in the realm of Jazz/Metal/Fusion. Hell, Atheist’s “Unquestionable Presence” was a mind fuck when it first came out and to say that you “got it” when it was released would be a lie. SO, For a first release, Gnostic’s album has some flaws but I have to stick with my opinion that,at least, they are trying to work a different angle and not sound like the other crappy 95% that makes it onto these lists all the time. I would love to hear the next CD when they figure out how to tweak their song structure a little better because they definitely don’t suck as musicians.I just think that maybe the ideas got a little lost in translation. For fucks sake, all these shitty bands release album after album so why not release their hard work??

THERE’S ONLY ONE GOOD ALBUM ON YOUR LIST NEILSTEIN.

The “jazzy parts” seem forced (unlike in Atheist), and the vocals are awful because they simply don’t go at all. The screaming isn’t high enough to really be high pitched, but it’s nowhere near guttural. It’s a bad blend of both. The music is C-rate Atheist, and Atheist worked perfectly with Kelly Schaefers vocals. These vocals are a -core, bro-magnon pseudo-imitation of Schaefer, and as a result, it fails miserably. I laughed at them while they played, and this guy clucked around like a chicken.

GIANT SQUID! Not exactly my cup of tea, but they’re good at what they do. For the whole “post-metal” thing going on as of late, these guys are certainly some of the best at it.

I was hoping for something along the lines of “Phoenix Rising” or “Cold Steel…”. Sounds as though I may be disappointed though.

True. I wouldn’t call it a metal album, but holy shit…it’s just beautiful.

agree with some, disagree with some, haven’t heard others.

Kylesa and Clutch are strangely missing. as are Pestilence, Suffocation and Blood Tsunami.

Gotta agree with you one White Tombs. Profound Lore has had some outstanding releases this year.
