SATAN ROSENBLOOM SAYS ADIOS TO 2009

amesoeurs-amesoeurs-2009One of the best things about seeing all the MS contributors’ year-end lists is getting tips about which 2009 albums I wasn’t listening to that I should have been. In Satan Rosenbloom’s case, those albums included Dreaming Dead’s Within One, an excellent release I basically allowed to sit on my desk for most of the year ’cause I’m dumb like that, and, especially, Amesoeurs’ self-titled album, which is barely metal but I listened to constantly over the break.

I’m saying that Mr. Rosenbloom has good taste, and now he’d like to share some of it with you: over at his own blog, Cerebral Metalhead, he’s compiled a 2009 year-end mix – aptly titled Cerebral Metalhead’s Adios to 2009 Metal Mix – which I highly recommend you download. There’s a lot of awesome shit on it, at least some of which I’d wager you either didn’t listen to or didn’t even know about last year. And, y’know, I’ll give my usual spiel and remind you that it’s free and the worst case scenario is you delete it from your computer/iPod/whatever.

Get the mix here. Totally worth it.

    Lever?

    I checked out Dreaming Dead’s myspace page and listened to all the songs on there after having heard about them here, and I loved the songs. I am definitely going to be buying their album soon.

      Oh, now I see what you did there.

    Awww, thanks for the link-up, guys! My FTP client was giving me guff so I had to post it as two YSI files. Maybe this’ll be the fire under my butt to man up and buy a better FTP app.

    Amesoeurs is one of the most underappreciated bands on the planet. They have broken up now, shortly after the release of their first and only full-length, but this record is an absolute classic. Truly a genre-bender, transcending the boundary between raw black metal, ambient and shoegaze. I highly recommend anyone with an open musical mind to check these guys out.

    The Dreaming Dead disc is pretty good, but the new Enfold Darkness is even better. Check that out if you haven’t yet–it was probably the best thing Sumerian put out last year.

    Got around to listening the full list earlier today and I gotta say, damn, theres some great stuff on there i had never heard before. Namely Saros, Amesoeurs, Struck By Lightning and Secrets of the Moon. I already knew about Church of Misery, but still awesome nonetheless.
