Are we campaigning in this thread or is that going to be separate?

I think we're supposed to wait for the next thread (correct me if I'm wrong, ON), but I'm not averse to getting started immediately, if only because of the batty volume of music we'll theoretically have to process.
Any objections?

i dont think it matters when you campaign but i dont think many people notice since a lot of people prefer to listen and vote in the final few days

Greet Death - New Hell

Band name & album title are metal enough to count regardless of musical content.

Good call. I adore the Greet Death album. One of my favorite things released this year.

What genre is it?
― Dog Is Daed (Oor Neechy), Tuesday, 17 December 2019 20:29 (four years ago) link
the smart money is on either noise or lo-fi indie
― imago, Tuesday, 17 December 2019 20:36 (four years ago) link
It’s fuzzy, shoegazy goodness. Not really metal, but definitely heavy at times.
― Skrot Montague, Tuesday, 17 December 2019 20:55 (four years ago) link
Speaking of lo-fi indie, this 2nd wave Norwegian BM worship ritual, wrought by a lonesome Ukrainian, comes with a corny indie fuxxor ballad towards the end:
Këkht Aräkh - Night & Love
Dude calls himself Crying Orc and provides the following lyrical teaser on his Bandcamp:
Night is spreading her veil all over Spirit is arisen permeating every breath Love comes through... We are all bonded here... Just about to see how beautiful we are

Same here tbh!
― Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 18 December 2019 16:13 (four years ago) link
It's mild clickbait as the vocalist sounds nothing like Jónsi but the horizonless sense of space, the hymnic flange and the post-doom (rather than rock) elements all kind of point towards their countrymen Sigur Rós. It'll definitely make my ballot.
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 18 December 2019 16:36 (four years ago) link
Bandcamp says it came out in ‘16.

Really? The band itself didn't exist before this year: 'ANDVAKA is founded in 2019 in Reykjavík Iceland.'

Former is raw ritual black with guttural vocals, latter plays with microtones. Both are atonal-adjacent. Oh, and Cthonica are from Venezuela, which may or may not be relevant to you (it was my first time hearing a metal band from there).

We're already over 200 up on last year, dunno how many more there are to nom!
I would like to note that this year's Lacuna Coil is surprisingly good, having not cared for/paid them much mind before.
