CULT SOUNDS OF 2011

Another year has come to an end, a lot of good noise was released, here are the best (in my opinion)

Anthrax – “Worship Music” classic headbanging thrash by old school masters.

The Horrors – “Skying” psychedelic/shoegaze britpop from the UK that produces a dark, hypnotic atmosphere. 

40 Watt Sun – “The Inside Room” beautiful and bleak doom-gaze metal with dark and haunting vocals from the UK.

In Solitude – “The World, The Flesh, The Devil” diabolic occult heavy metal from Sweden, Hail Satan!

Peter Murphy – “Ninth” the best voice in all of music, pure dark rock from “The Godfather Of Goth.”

Goes Cube – “In Tides And Drifts” punk rock metal from Brooklyn, a raging blast of melodies, speed and distortion.

Tombs – “Path Of Totality” experimental blackened metal from Brooklyn, pummelling, intense, brutal and melodic.  

The Gates Of Slumber – “The Wretch” doom metal from Indiana, dark, slow and miserable doom and gloom.

Mastodon – “The Hunter” progressive psychedelic metal, weed music.

The Black Angels – “Phosgene Nightmare” psychedelic rock from Texas, hypnotic,mesmerizing, eerie an ethereal with a 60’s psychedelia rock vibe.

Giant Squid – “Cenotes” experimental/progressive metal from San Francisco, dark, dissonant, massive and wonderfully bizarre.

Ulcerate – “The Destroyers Of All” death metal from New Zealand that creates a bleak atmosphere.

Skinny Puppy – “HanDover” electro industrial album from a legendary band.

Opeth – “Heritage” progressive metal from Sweden, different with no death growls but equally as heavy as their past releases.

and remember kids, HAIL SATAN!
