Thanks! I finally got around to listening to the new Fange. I think I preferred Punir over their new one. The new one had more industrial than I was anticipating. I'll have to give it another go though.

Great list with a lot of albums I gave a high score too. (Ulcerate, Vassafor, Temple Nightside, Black Curse, Panzerfaust...) A bit underwhelmed by Skeleton though.

Thanks! Those are some of the albums I've repeatedly gone back to this year. All excellent releases. It's been awhile since I've listened to the Skeleton album with everything that's been coming out in the recent weeks. It was fairly catchy from what I recall but not necessarily memorable. I'm a big fan of most 20 buck releases so i keep tabs on most of their stuff. I'm not much for industrial so I skipped their two most recent ones.
