Disapointing so far, only albums I've really liked have been Tool, Devin Townsend and Canvas Solaris's (in that order basically). There's been a few other notable albums (Lebanon, Lair of the Minotaur, Decapitated, Pitbulls in the Nursery, Thanatopsis, Kayo Dot, Degree Absolute, Day Without Dawn, Anathallo, Dysrhythmia) but nothing else really good.

Still lots of stuff I'm looking forward to though. I really hope Neurosis fire one off by the end of the year because then the new Tool might have some competition =)

Aborym - Generator
Carpathian Forest - Fuck You All!
Krieg - Blue Miasma
Drudkh - Blood in our Wells
Darkthrone - The Cult is Alive

This year started very very strong, almost as strong as 2004. And there's still many potential masterpieces to come.

Altaria-The Fallen Empire
Axxis-Paradise In Flames
Devin Townsend-Synchestra
Edguy-Rocket Ride
Sonata Arctica-For The Sake Of Revenge
Amorphis-Eclipse
Slave To The System-ST
That's all the good stuff I've heard this year....

EDIT: forgot the winter wake...

Rhys · **Posted:** Wed May 03, 2006 12:26 pm

I voted great, because of:

Elvenking - The Winter Wake
Darkthrone - The Cult is Alive
Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage
Psycroptic - Symbols of Failure
Katatonia - The Great Cold Distance
Ihsahn - The Adversary

And i hope these titles i will soon be aquiring will add to the coolness of this year

Drudkh - The Blood In Our Wells
Krieg - Blue Miasma
Aborym - Generator
Enslaved - Ruun
Moonspell - Memorial
Keep of Kallesin - Armada

Plus: Ved Buenes End have reformed, which is awesome.

I haven't really bought/heard a lot of 2006 stuff at all so far. I like Synchestra and Inhuman Rampage. The new Mystic Prophecy's quite good, as is Armada.

So far this year I have really liked these ones, the ones following right after this sentence here: Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage, Elvenking - The Winter Wake, Devin Townsend - Synchestra, Katatonia - The Great Cold Distance, Morrissey - Ringleader of The Tormentors, Evergrey - Monday Morning Apocalypse, Astral Doors - Astralism, Bob Catley - Spirit of Man, Katai Tamas - Erika Szobaja and Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium
