Cheers Leatherface, will check those out, never heard of either.

Abigor- Verwüstung/ Invoke The Dark Age LP. Another stunning release from DSR, who are one of the most reliable sources of high quality reissues in recent times. I've ignored Abigor over the years for no real reason I can think of. Their later, modern sound isn't really for me, but their early 'true' BM sound is just the stuff.

Russian Circles - "Nine"

Deadly stuff.  I don't often go for RC but when I do it is always great, it is like I forget I like them until an album comes out :laugh: this is pretty heavy and to the point.  Nothing outrageous or new but a good solid album.

Hum - "Inlet"

Loved this when it came out, listened to it to death, forgot about it for a couple of years, and had it on for a spin last night and this morning.  Just gorgeous, huge, melodic and song driven shoegaze-leaning stuff.  Still love it.  Shapeshifter has a chorus that wouldn't be out of place on October Rust.

The Vicious Head Society- call of the Void. Graham back with a banger.


Savaged - Rising
Sandstorm - Dungeon of Death
Mithotyn - In the Sign of the Ravens
Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind

Killer stuff.

Church of Misery - Master of Reality
Crypt Sermon - Out of the Garden
UFO - The Wild The Willing and the Innocent
Martyr - Hopeless Hopes
Einherjer - Far Far North

Dying Fetus - Destroy the opposition!, its been a while!.Up there with the best of that genre!

Burgonet - Ancient Armor And Forgotten Hymns
Ripper - Towards Rebirth
Immortal - To The North and Into Eternal Winter
Neorite - Banner of Defeat
Grave - Into the Grave

I'm still convinced that this is the second time I have bought Into The Grave... First was the Century Media web store for £8 sometime in the early 00s...

Annoyingly it is an enhanced CD, with a video clip on it and it takes ages for my CD player to actually starting playing the actual album.   

First ever vinyl listens to both Painkiller and MoP yesterday. Love how the simple medium switch creates a new listening experience for albums I know inside out  :abbath:  (less in sonic terms, though there's that too, than turning them into two-half affairs)
