MY TOP 10 FOR JULY 2018

WOW! 7 months already gone from 2018! It is really an inexorable time. And on top I turned 40 in July.
Actually July wasn't that much intense of many releases, but still there were few which got me solidly. So here they are - my top choices from the released in July albums, in no particular order. With really tiny descriptions this time.


KHÔRADA - Salt
Release date: 20 July

 Post-metal of different level. Atmospheric, progressive, sad. This is amazing.
SPACESLUG - EYE THE TIDE
Release Date: 20 July

 Absolutely magnificent Kozmic Doom - gloomy, melancholic, trippy. Use your imagination...
THE LION'S DAUGHTER - FUTURE CULT
Release Date: 20 July

 What a release! Black, sludge, progressive. Top-notch new album by TLD.
OBSCURA - DILUVIUM
Release Date: 13 July

 You all know what it is.

 High quality cavernous death/doom. Only 3 songs. Unfortunately.
1968 - BALLADS OF THE GODLESS
Release date: 6 July

 Even the artworks says it all. Stoner. 70s. Beautiful
DEE SNIDER - FOR THE LOVE OF METAL
Release Date: 27 July

 Indeed - for the love of Metal. Class! Legend! Real heavy metal!!!
COLDWORLD - NOSTALGIA EP
Release Date: 23 July 

 Black metal how it should be. Raw. 90s.
SEAR BLISS - LETTERS FROM THE EDGE
Release Date: 6 July

 Black metal. Stranded, estranged. Trombone. Lonely.
BURY TOMORROW - BLACK FLAME
Release Date: 13 July 

Awesome surprise! Awesome!
Really, very very catchy and enjoyable album!
SKELETONWITCH - DEVOURING RADIANT LIGHT
Release Date: 13 July
Skeletonwitch in top shape after 5 years of silence! Melodic BM nuances prevail?!









Did I miss something else great? For sure...

COUNT VLAD'S AOTY LIST OF 2023

Image
  The pretentious mainstream hipster elitist poser's AOTY list of 2023 is here. The ultimate list that makes them all lists. My favorite releases of the year 2023. It features everything that I enjoyed the most throughout this already-dead and-gone year.  When I was preparing this list I looked into all my notes, went through all the monthly lists that I published here and revisited quite a lot of albums. And I must admit that basically, everyone could have a spot in the AOTY lists. It has been a really crazy year - an enormous amount of releases, thousands of bands, and very good albums shortlisted. Literally, almost every band on Earth put out a new album! I already published My Top 50 Death Metal Albums of 2023 and My Top 50 Black Metal Albums of 2023 . Of course, there are some omissions, I realize this. The good news is that I can return to my monthly selections anytime and revisit the good ones. Every time I find a forgotten gem there. You should do the same.  While preparin

MY TOP LIST FOR MAY 2023 (Expanded)

Image
May 2023 was an interesting month. Not many distinguished names, but rather bands and albums that get under the skin. In the meantime, I saw Watain and Pantera live and spent quite a good time with some old klassiks that helped me clean my ears from the contemporary sugar-coated plastic fantastic metal for dummies.
