Another year begins, same scenario, ranking ordered from favorite down to least favorite. I've no specific target set this year, but it's doubtful I'll reach last year's monstrous amount. I might even throw in the odd EP this time round.

The list is also edited daily so the ranking may be subject to change.

1.Cistvaen - At Light's Demise

2.Khirki - Κ​υ​κ​ε​ώ​ν​α​ς

3.Dödsrit - Nocturnal Will

4.Sgàile - Traverse The Bealach

5.Hauntologist - Hollow

So it begins. 3rd year at MS, 5th year of devoted metal listening. Nothing particularly exciting coming up, but Eternal Storm looks promising, and any new Persefone is a good thing. It's early days after all.

Goal? I made it to 625 albums last year, with a pretty slack first 6 months. Aiming for 800.

Update: This list is officially discontinued, apart from albums that are good enough to warrant multiple listens, aka the top end. There are various reasons for this, but a lot of changes are happening in life and I cannot/do not want to give this much time to every release I can.

1.Aquilus - Bellum II

2.Cave Sermon - Divine Laughter

3.Illumishade - Another Side Of You

4.Persefone - Lingua Ignota: Part I

5.Solbrud - IIII
