MY TOP 20 FOR JUNE 2021

Too many albums, too little inspiration...My top 20 for JUNE includes all predictable albums that a top list from June 2021 would include. It is because I dedicated time to the 10% from the enormous pile. The 10% that are going to stay, the 10% that are memorable and deserve attention. Only elitism is real, right?


DARKTHRONE - Eternal Hailz......
Release Date: 25 June

The most obvious choice. I wonder what Tom G Warrior thinks about this album...
HELLOWEEN - Helloween
Release Date: 18 June

Proud to commit commercial and soul suicide with this choice...

BOSSK - Migration
Release Date: 18 June

Fantastic as always, Bossk delivers another lesson in atmospheric sludge.
PESTILENCE - Exitivm
Release Date: 25 June

They did it again!
AMENRA - De Doorn
Release Date: 25 June

Everything by Amenra is gold
DESASTER - Churches Without Saints
Release Date: 4 June

Straight in your fkn face, poser!

FLOTSAM AND JETSAM - Blood in the Water
Release Date: 

It is more like heavy Primal Fear, but F&J delivers a great album again.
WITCH VOMIT - Abhoren Rapture
Release Date: 18 June

Outstanding! Heavy AF atmosphere and everything.

CEREBRAL ROT - Excretion of Mortality
Release Date: 25 June

Crushing DM with OS feel! One of the best in 2021 so far.

GORGON - Traditio Satanae
Release Date: 11 June

The type of BM I love (Impaled Nazarene fueled)
KING BUFFALO - The Burden of Restlessness
Release Date: 4 June

The grooves and the riffs.
WINTER ETERNAL - Land of Darkness
Release Date: 3 June

It is not the Hellenic BM as people know it. 
EYE OF PURGATORY - The Lighthouse
Release Date: 18 June

Because it is complete Edge of Sanity worship!
FRACTAL UNIVERSE - The Impassable Horizon
Release Date: 25 June

Technical, enjoyable. Oh, there is sax too.
OSSAERT - Pelgrimsoord
Release Date: 4 June

Finally something from the underground, right? I went too mainstream so far.



WARMOON LORD - Battlespells
Release Date: 25 June

Warmoon Lord is always presented in my lists. Always.
PHARAOH - The Powers That Be
Release Date: 18 June

What?! Really?

THORN - Crawling Worship
Release Date: 18 June

The hype was too big.


GNOSIS - Omens from the Dead Realm
Release Date: 14 June

Midpaced BM, a lot of Rotting Christ vibes. 


ARGWAAN - In a Surge of Anguish
Release Date: 12 June

The anguish could have been big if it wasn't so UG.




THE BONUS TRACKS:


ISON - Aurora
Release Date: 25 June

If you need an escape. Again.


HUMAN PREY - Grave Robbers from Outer Space
Release Date: 25 June

Shiny happy people from outer space. Only when you are in the right mood for them,
FLUIDS - Not Dark Yet
Release Date

Not dark yet.





The Mandatory question: Where the fuck is the new Fear Factory album?

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 OF SEPTEMBER 2023

Image
Abundance. This is how I can describe September 2023. This is why the below list looks like shit, meaning so unprofessional that I am listing 55+ albums below. I tried somehow to make a conditional cut at 25, but honestly, it's worth spending time with all these albums.
