| Tribulation - The Children of the Night This is definitely the best album of the first half of the year for me. I honestly wasn't prepared to such a huge shift towards classic metal with a certain psychodelic touch from these guys, even though I had a chance to listen to couple of tracks live before it was released. Not that much left here from that blackened death metal the band played on their previous effort, which I think was absolutely awesome, except harsh vocals and overall dark atmosphere, though overall their style is still recognizable. I'm at loss to say what attracts me more in this album, is it guitar work, dark/gothic atmosphere created by keyboards or emotional vocals, but their blend is captivating. | |

Such a drastic change from Augur. A couple of the songs are brilliant but none of the other tracks really grabbed my attention. | |

I think it may partly be the jarring departure in sound that made it stick in my head I haven't fully digested the album yet. It being in this list is based on an overall impression of it literally standing out from the long lines of mediocre heard-all-this-befores one has to wade through. | |

| These are pretty much my outstanding records I heard so far. Special mentions to the debut album of Visigoth and Speedwhore, the excellent come-back records of Megiddo, Amon, Acid King and Macabre Omen, the excellent sophomore record of Masters Of Disguise and the marvelous new Raven record. These guys are still going strong, 41 years around and counting \m/ Arcturus | Arcturian | Visigoth | The Revenant King | Enslaved | In Times | Masters Of Disguise | The Savage And The Grace | Megiddo | The Holocaust Messiah | Speedwhore | The Future Is Now | Raven | ExtermiNation | Forgotten Tomb | Hurt Yourself And The Ones You Love | Beardfish | +4626-COMFORTZONE | Iron Lamb | Fool's Gold | A Forest Of Stars | Beware The Sword You Cannot See | Macabre Omen | Gods Of War - At War | Solefald | World Metal. Kosmopolis Sud | The Slow Death | Ark | Artizan | The Furthest Reaches | Acid King | Middle Of Nowhere, Center Of Everywhere | Night | Soldiers Of Time | Royal Thunder | Crooked Doors | Ereb Altor | Nattramn | Sigh | Graveward | Amon | Brána Do Pekla |

| Can only conclude Morbid that different countries got different release dates!
On the back sleeve of mine it reads at the bottom, below track listing the following: Composed, performed and engineered by John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies.

| It's too late at night for an extensive search. As far as a casual Google can tell, it was released February 2015. That's good enough for me.
Perhaps the CDs were pressed at the end of 2014 and it was decided to postpone the release. I don't know or care. I'm keeping it in the list. It's too good not to.

Checking this out now. Glad they kept the creepy atmosphere aspect on this recording. It's pretty much the reason why i dig the last two. | |

| Are we doing this thing like we did on snmr or will we add our own spin on listing our best of list?
Some concerns in more detail would be number of albums, genre dictation and wether or not singles and ep's can get thrown into said lists. | |
