I think the new fun album is AMAZING. Got 4 tickets for their Saturday night show in NYC and I’m pumped!

My top 5 of the year, starting with #1 and goin’ down:

Spawn Of Possession: Incurso
Alcest: Les Voyages De L’Âme
Swallow The Sun: Emerald Forest And The Blackbird
Lamb Of God Resolution
Cannibal Corpse: Torture

Enjoyed all of those, liked some other records, while the only real disappointment so far is the new Terrorizer; not bad, year!

I’ll have to do some more in depth evaluation on a few albums before I post on this.

But, I just wanted to say that I personally thought the new Terrorizer was great, despite my skepticism of the band moving forward without Jesse Pintado.

Plan to make a list of albums I’m looking forward to this year and a list of albums I feel people overlooked in 2011. Some were released In December for instance so I felt they were overlooked.

I just felt it was the same as [id]. They didn’t really venture into any new territory.

@hasi4503 Haha yup but would you believe I still have 20+ albums that I haven’t even had time to add yet. Listening to music is becoming a full time job, but luckily it’s an enjoyable job. I’m having a hard time placing the Songs of Green Pheasant, We are Ghosts and Shins albums as well.

So far, this is my top 5:
- Cloud Nothings – “Attack On Memory” – 9,4/10
- Beach House – “Bloom” – 9,2/10
- Andrew Bird – “Break It Yourself” – 8,7/10
- Django Django – “Django Django” – 8,5/10
- Grimes – “Visions” – 8,4/10

I still have a pretty big list of records to cover-up, and we’re only in April. In the end of 2012 I’ll make a Top 20 (or 30), and post all my album ratings in here.
