cds
Scoring of stuff I bought around last time:
5/5:
Doom:VS - Aeternum Vale
Agalloch - Ashes Against The Grain
4/5:
Morgion - Among Majestic Ruin
Sentenced - The Cold White Light
3/5
Crematory - Illusions, Awake, Transmigration, s/t - one of these is 3/5 and the others are 2/5, though I have no idea which is which
Iron Maiden - A Matter Of Life And Death
Sentenced - Down
Sentenced - Frozen
Hypocrisy - The Fourth Dimension
2/5:
Celtic Frost - Monotheist
Arch Enemy - Anthems Of Rebellion
1/5:
Lake Of Tears - BlackBrickRoad (not my sort of thing really)
...and stuff bought since then:
Amon Amarth - With Oden On Our Side - 5/5
Insomnium - Above The Weeping World - 4/5
Hans Zimmer - Gladiator sound track - 4/5
Draconian - The Burning Halo - 4/5
My Dying Bride - A Line of Deathless Kings - 3/5 or 4/5, not decided...
Turisas - Battle Metal - 3/5
My cd purchases are slowing down at the moment, with me no longer passing Reveal Records in Derby every day, and having cleared out Selectadisc in town of everything worth having. However, tomorrow![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ironlord should hopefully have 4 more cds from his bulk order for me:
SENTENCED - Crimson
SATURNUS - Veronika decides to die
LACUNA COIL - Comalies
AMORPHIS - Eclipse
Why do I type all this out? I don't know. I think it'll be interesting to look back and see if my tastes change over time.

I think Swallow The Sun are getting a very good critical response. Both albums are pretty free of fillers, well-produced, and flawlessly executed, so it's easy to get into... at least as far as Finnish doom metal goes. I suppose it helps that few bands are doing that style of music at the moment, too.
Amusingly, almost every cd I buy from Selectadisc comes with a sticker saying "stunning [insert subgenre here] metal from [Scandinavian country or England]". I checked, and 'stunning' doesn't appear on every cd, just mainly the ones I buy.
