2007 and metal.
Dez 31 2007, 22h00
2007 was a good year for me metal wise. I greatly expanded my collection both download wise and actual cd wise.
Ive been to just 2 concerts because of lack of money or time but both were quite good. I went to the Arnhem Metal Meeting and Melechesh. If you want to know more about them just read the reviews i posted earlier here on last.fm
Now onto my fave albums list of 2007.
Neurosis - Given to the Rising
neurosis shows once again what athmospheric sludge doom is all about.
Reverend Bizarre - III: So Long Suckers
This album is possibly the best classical doom album(think black sabbath) ever.
Moonsorrow - V: Hävitetty
Arguably the best viking metal album ever. The folk is implemented greatly, it is incredibly epic and it rocks \m/
Runners up:
Amorphis - Silent Waters
Amorphis mixes elegy with eclipse. Which turns out to be a great mix. Excellent progressive metal with hints of doomdeath. Not as good as elegy though.
Slough Feg - Hardwolder
Epic power metal like manilla road or brocas helm. No this isnt filled with cheese this isnt hammerfall. Shows that epic power metal is far from dead.
Otargos - Kinetic Zero.
This is the only pure black metal band i really enjoy. Great band with very unusual lyrics about quantum physics.
Mithras - Behind the Shadows..... lie madness
experimental brutal death metal best fits this album. Originally done but suffers from poor production.
Dissapointment of the year:
Airut - Langennut.
Oh i was waiting for theire first lp. Theire ep's all have been great and had great originallity the lp changed the songs carried from the ep's into less original and the production didnt sound as good either. It wasnt quality but the original versions just had this nice sound. Anyway they sound more like children of bodom and such now with this release which is really not a good thing.
Albums i havent listened enough to yet to make a judgement:
Down - Over the Under.
Really enjoyed the previous 2 albums. Original southern doom metal and this album seems to be good too.
Ulver - Shadows of the Sun. A incredible band that used to be black metal but changed and kept on changing. This album is eh. I heared it most closely resembles chamber music. Whatever that may be. Only listened a bit to it and it sounded awesome already.
Obituary - Xecutioner's return
I heared that this classic floridan death metal band really made a good album with this. I dont know yet. So far what i have gotten sounds wierd but i bet that is because i got a prerelease promo. Anyway only listened 2 or 3 songs yet of this but seems that obituary still rules however.
Viikate - Marraskuun Lauluja 1
Another album by one of my favourite finnish bands. You could best describe this band as melancholic melodic metal. Great band with great albums. This album seems to be great too but not entirely listened to it yet.
That would be it.
oh and for the future in 2008. I dont know really.
I know a new manilla road is coming but other than that i dont know. I shall just let 2008 happen and see what happens.

What about Turisas, Ensiferum and Finntroll? You should really check their new albums out if you like Moonsorrow. :) -

I tried Turisas and i think its good but not good enough to be a runners up. The new ensiferum is kinda the same deal but i like it less than the new turisas and the new Finntroll is more like moonsorrow. I like it but it isnt close to be one of my favourite albums. -

Check out Be'lakor, a Melbourne metal band - especially if you like melodic death.
