so this arrived in the mail just today and wouldn't you know it! it's AOTY!

Cool. I dropped the needle on it a couple weeks ago and thought enough of it to Save it on Spotify. I'll have to give it a proper listen.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

For the Core album, did you get the original mix or remastered?

Remastered. The original sounds like hot garbage and it's way harder to find anyways

My Bose buds were dying on the left side, which is common as I found out.

my first listen was pretty dang casual while i was working and i still thought it was rad
second listen i didn't even get halfway before i decided i was already definitely getting this one & didn't listen to the rest
third listen just yesterday and i've already decided it's my AOTY
can't wait for it to become my favorite album of all time on my fourth listen, or something like that
probably putting it into rotation next week, anyways  :lol

Black Sabbath- Dehumanizer
one of my alltime favourites by Sabbath to be honest

right now I'm listening to Tears For Fears: The Seeds Of Love
"All my natural instincts are begging me to stop
But somehow I carry on, heading for the top
A physical absurdity, a tremendous mental game
Helping me understand exactly who I am"

Talking Heads - 77

Getting into these guys and into new wave in general. Some of it is reminiscent of David Bowie and some other stuff that I've listened to over the years, so it's good that certain aspects of the musical landscape are already familiar to me.

Her Name Is Calla - Animal Choir

If anyone here is interested in checking out an amazing combination of dark indie and post-rock, this band played Dunk!Festival last weekend and released their new album on the same weekend. Veeeeery strong contender for AOTY right now, they're mindblowingly intense. It's a bit heavier than the earlier material I've heard by them but I think it works well with their sound!

Death Angel - Humanicide

Man, what a great album from these guys. Nice bounce back after the more...radio-friendly focus of The Evil Divide. Back to Death Angel's heavy as fuck thrash sound with catch melodies where appropriate. This band is so criminally underrated.

Killer tune. LOVE Immortal Behated as well. Hell, I love the whole thing. My least favorites are probably Divine Defector and the bonus track, The Day I Walked Away. I'll start a Death Angel thread. Haven't seen one.

Damn, didn't expect this to be so different from what he's done - a very artsy, varied, and somewhat experimental record, filled with soft ballads and huge crescendos. AOTY contender? Likely for me.

Gotta say, this one has just aged so well for me. One that I love to come back to. A rare album where you can feel how much of it is born out of personal pain, yet it is still obviously very carefully composed. Not the open-wound-I-don't-care-if-it's-messy feeling of The X Factor or St. Anger. An album that bleeds, but bleeds deliberately and beautifully.
And if spirit's a sign,
Then it's only a matter of time

My 2018 AOTY and the frontrunner for 2019 AOTY.
Musically these two albums are really similar. The Tribulation has harsh/growls and the Idle Hands has Goth style vocals. Both really blend well with the music, and give the music a dimension that a straight clean vocal would not.

The Idle Hands is fucking dark.

The first album I heard was Navigators (Navigator?) and it was good too, just a bit slower and less diversive, and not as emotional maybe? Still guuuud
