The first two Masters of Reality albums are straight-through awesome. There is definitely some decline over time, but there are good tracks on the next couple at least. Haven't heard their latest, nor the Revocation album; will be rectifying that shortly.

Well, that was pretty much the antithesis of a memorable quote from me about 1349, but I think RotBF is a pretty interesting album, and might come to be seen as 1349's Cold Lake for all the atmosphere instead of constant slamming. I think all bands should have at least one album that risk, at least a little bit, alienating all their existing fans.

http://farbeyondmusic.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/obscura-1.jpgObscura - Cosmogenesis
This new Obscura album, Cosmogenesis, is ridiculously great. Total tech-death madness with two ex-members of Necrophagist and one ex-member of Pestilence. Ultra-complex riffing with jazz-fusion interludes (including some Cynic-style computer voice!) and really prominent fretless bass lines, including bass solos. It's like the best aspects of Necrophagist, Pestilence and Cynic all wadded up into one big ball of awesome.― unperson,"Cosmogenesis", the second full-length album from German death metallers OBSCURA, is available for streaming in its entirety at ObscuraCosmogenesis.com. The CD is being released in the U.S. today (February 17) via Relapse Records (March 2 internationally). The CD features guest appearances from Ron Jarzombek (WATCHTOWER, SPASTIC INK, BLOTTED SCIENCE) and Tymon Kruidenier (CYNIC, EXIVIOUS). "The new album sounds very intense and brutal", the band says in a statement.Obscura - Cosmogenesishttp://www.obscuracosmogenesis.com/― djmartian, I think the Obscura is one of my surprise albums of the year so far.

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Nf-R8Os1BVA/SaCFWVoaEQI/AAAAAAAABNo/YFptz9-ZJ3c/s320/artwork.jpgGnaw - This Face
GNAW was formed in 2006 by Alan Dubin (ex-Khanate, OLD) along with Jamie Sykes (ex-Burning Witch, Thorr's Hammer, Atavist), Carter Thornton (Enos Slaughter), Jun Mizumachi (ex-Ike Yard: 80's NYC industrial legends) and Brian Beatrice (Emmy Award winning sound design/mix wizard). Dubin thought it would be fantastic to collaborate with some of his respected musician/friends, all who have diverse music backgrounds to see/hear what would develop. GNAW's debut album "This Face is the sonic culmination of over a year of sound experimentation. It's a genre destroying journey that almost defies description. Sykes is a percussive madman blasting out anything from tribal beats to ultra slow tom killings. Mizumachi is a renown sound designer for film & TV and is a master of electronics including synth, factory noise, metal bashing and other craziness. Beatrice is also a sound designer and mixer for film & TV and was the mixer for "This Face" as well as experimenting and adding additional sounds. Thornton is a crafty musician who actually makes his own instruments. He played guitar, bass, piano and some unnamed home-made "things". Additionally, Thornton supplied field recordings and arranged many of the songs. Dubin rounds out the group with his gut-wrenching vocals, noise and arrangements. Screaming, singing, whispers and chants can be heard throughout "This Face". Dubin's lyrics are vivid portrayals of all things bad.Julian Cope's review:Doom fans should also make a big effort to catch Alan Dubin’s hefty new release THIS FACE, from his current All Star ensemble Gnaw. Released on the excellent Conspiracy Records (conspiracyrecords.com), Gnaw celebrates missing out like nobody else in the whole damn Universe (sample lyric: ‘Everybody’s fucking but you.’ Nice.). My absolute fave is ‘Backyard Frontier’, the lyrics of which depict the mind of a serial killer whose outside world has become so restricted that even sharing the retaining wall with his neighbours has become the most major compromise of his life. Babies, I know the Dubin’s vocal delivery can seem a mite unyielding at times, but he has – across almost a decade now – established such a grinding level of direct action in his delivery that we just have to keep paying attention. Obligation? U-Betcha! Especially when the musicians themselves are such dab hands at cuntedness; seemingly effortlessly strewing, nay, daubing the very Cosmos with sonic shards of pure un-directed Jackson Pollock paint splatter. Although iTunes tells us to file this mung worship under ‘Children’s Music’, I’ve found it difficult to contain under-5s for long enough to complete the experiment; a coupla cages off eBay might do the job. You know what? Methinks this entire album should either be highly expensive and difficult to obtain, or issued (along with free 10K Matamp PA) by local councils to all of those within earshot of a local mosque. 5am with the Dubin? Now that’s what I’m talking about.

Obscura's another good newcomer, thought that was from 2008 though. I liked that 1349 album, but it took me quite a while to start appreciating it, it's somehow very... aloof, but for me it works. Didn't vote for it in the end, one of the last minute casualties.

Now playing: Jodis, Secret House. A new group featuring Aaron Turner of Isis on vocals and guitar, with bass and drums from James Plotkin and Tim Wyskida of Khanate. Very spacious, moody, somewhat psychedelic (super-reverbed vocals), not very metal at all. I like it a lot so far.

Secret House is the first one of my votes to turn up. I really grew to LOVE this record, having originally had the same sort of opinion as unperson.
Agreed it's not really a metal record, it makes me think most of the This Mortal Coil version of Come Here My Love. Which is no bad thing.
― Diamanti Gallas (aldo), Tuesday, 19 January 2010 16:38 (fourteen years ago) link
Kinda surprised to see Behemeoth that low, its a good album. Maybe because it really wasn't anything other than a very well executed Behemoth album and didn't really push for new things? I've never heard anything by Blue Sabbath Black Cheer, even though the name makes it sound like it would hit me perfectly.

Possibly because it's on a euro label. Americans don't like to pay the higher cost of importing. We euros are used to it as we import most of our albums from the states, but if you look at msg boards , americans hate to import anything especially vinyl due to shipping charges.

I really liked the Behemoth album when it first came out, but then didn't really pay much attention to it until I had to dig deep into their stuff prior to interviewing Nergal the other week. It is really good, but I probably like Demigod and The Apostasy more.

several "too low" placing comments already, but it's hardly surprising when several rolling metal regulars didn't vote, the more extreme or real metal bands will suffer in this case. A couple of high votes each from a few of those would boost albums way up. But at the end of the day, this is how people voted.
