so what's your favorites ? to be honest , i had a poor listening experience this year , except the new Lil Ugly mane and some Theologian's pain of saints .
thx
I havent heard much this year either. Yeah the new Ugly is cool but I'm really hype for Oblivion Access.Watch the preview on youtube.It's like harsh noise samples sequenced into beats but its kind of low-key actually.
For noise though, I've liked:
Koufar-Lebanon for Lebanese(heard about him a while back,glad I checked him out though this is cool)
Damien Dubrovnik-Vegas Fountain(I saw them perform some of this stuff before I bought it, it's pretty good industrial shit, clean sound)
and Grunt-Myth of Blood(Typical Grunt I guess,Linkola Legacy kills)
A very generous year:
MATHIEU SERRUYS "On Germaine Dulac" LP (B.A.A.D.M.)
VICTOR EREMITA "Clearing" C36 (Black Horizons)
NEUTRAL "Grå Våg Gamlestaden" LP (Omlott)
VICTIM! "Pupila" CD/C40 (Seminal/Fusty Cunt)
V/A "Göteborg 2014" CS(Forever United)
There has been loads of really enjoyable material released this year thus far, but in thinking of the very best, are the key ones which come to mind are (in no particular order):
Am Not - Unpunished CD
Grunt - Myth of Blood LP
Damien Dubrovnik - Vegas Fountain LP
Concrete Mascara - History of Ruin MC
Templum N.R. – Spectrum CCCXC: Transitio MC
Ke/Hil - Zone O LP
Heinz Hopf "Ultra Primitiv" LP and Being "To Fall In Love..." 2xC15, both on Wendy. The Rodger Stella 7", "The Final Programme" + some other great ones on I Dischi Del Barone. A whole bunch of great tapes on Vitrine, A. Bolus "Tropical Poolside Drainage" and Stewart Skinner "The Adulator" in particular. The Ochu LP, "Tvärsnitt", ofcourse. Vorum "Current Mouth" mCD. Oh, and the Skinhead Girl C10!
We're not even out of August yet. Does no one think nothing remarkable or even interesting can happen in the next four months? Personally I'm looking forward to the Armour Group release coming up soon.
indeed, still early to make a top ten, yet highlights of the past few months have been:
grunt: myth of blood
ke/hil: Zone O LP
anything released by Zyklon SS
Kevlar: Criteria
Carnera: Strategia della tensione (superb Italian electronic music with industrial undertones, fetauring members of Sigfried, Lchm, ecc). quite different from what I usually listen to,
Am Not: Unpunsihed
SNUFF: III

"Nigger Torture Chamber" is simply great.
"Criteria" is a discovery for me, very good tape.
The project called Carnera has released this opus through Old Europa Cafe and I think it's an excellent album, one of my top 2015 albums for sure.
You can hear "Strategia della Tensione" for free here https://carnera.bandcamp.com/releases .
I saw them live some weeks ago and it was great.
I also like a lot Grunt - Sacrosanct Imperium tape.
Pedestrian Deposit - The Architector
Max Vincent - The Future Has Designed Us
Fockewulf 190 - The First & Second Side Of The Mystic Synth
William Basinski - Cascade

Great news! Very curious to listen how it will sound.
Already far too many...maybe I will get back on this by the end of the year.
When I look alone on the fall 2015 release schedule of F&V, I think it doesn't make any sense to nominate the top 2015 albums by end of August.
That said, I believe POGROM's "Father:Land" will remain in my personal top 10 for 2015.
Standouts for me so far:
Twa Corbies "The Clamouring"
Akitsa "Grands Tyrans"
Koufar "Lebanon for Lebanese"
Rectal Hygienics "Ultimate Purity"
Pig Heart Transplant "For Mass Consumption"
Vassafor / Temple Nightside "Call of the Maelstrom"
Prurient "Frozen Niagara Falls"
Panphage "Storm"
Sect Pig "Self Reversed"
Breathing Problem & Swallowing Bile "Highly Personal"
Kêres "Battle Secrets"
Dispirit "Separation"
Spermicidal "Necrocosm"
Terror Cell Unit "Cerebral Warfare"
Chaos Echoes "Transient"
Shift "Ruminations"
Clandestine Blaze "New Golgotha Rising"
Steve Von Till "A Life Unto Itself"
There were literally dozens of other excellent releases this year, those are just the ones that have stuck with me the most to date. Still 4 months to go though, and a new Ride For Revenge album is coming.
way too early for such a thread, but
Of Earth and Sun - Uncoiled
Charlemagne Palestine - Ssingggg Sschlllingg Sshpppingg
Yen Pox - Between the Horizon and the Abyss
Doesn't matter what's coming out in the next two months, my favourite Black Metal album for 2015 will be -
PHLEGEIN: From the Land of Death
Tentative list of best things I liked:
V/A: Saastaa Soumesta II LP
Chaos Echoes - Transient DLP
Iron Maiden - Book of Souls 2xCD
HHL - Shorn/Flail CS
Sete Star Sept/Cock ESP 7"
Bell Witch - Four Phantoms DLP
Adversarial - Death, Endless Nothing and the Black Knife of Nihilism LP
Man is the Bastard - Lost MITB Sessions LP
Possible runners up: Cultes Des Ghoules 10", Bastard Noise Our Earths Blood V, Kira S/T CS, Disrotted LP
Looking forward to but not heard yet: Ares Kingdom, Zombi, probably some other stuff....
MONOLORD - Vænir
KOWLOON WALLED CITY - Grievances
am not album is pretty hard to beat
Pendt speaks truth. I don't normally care for lists of yearly bests but "Unpunished" deserves mention because I think it'll stand out as a canon classic for years to come.
Apart from the already mentioned essentials (Am Not, Grunt etc), I would add:
Frame Rust - s/t
Ride for Revenge - Ageless Powers Arise
SSRI - Swollen by Noise
Ritual Violence - s/t
Acherontas - Ma-Ion
Maskhead - Female Mutilations
Alfarmania - Farsot (don't know whether this was available before 2015?)
Herman Kopp & Lorenzo Abattoir - Psicopompo
RxAxPxE - Flesh Commandments
2015 or the year heavy electronics dominated
Am Not - Unpunished CD
Kevlar - Criteria LP
Ke/Hil - Zone 0 CD
Sewer Goddess - Painlust CD
Grunt - Myth of Blood LP / Survivalists cassette
Pain Nail - Untitled cassette
all Zyklon SS releases
Yen Pox - Between the Horizon and the Abyss CD
non-industrial
OAKE - Auferstehung 2xLP - maybe my favorite of 2015, even though it came out at the very end of 2014
Violet Poison - Absence Generator 12"
Tropic of Cancer - Stop Suffering 12"
Kerridge - Always Offended Never Ashamed 2xLP
Leviathan - Scar Sighted CD
In no particular order...
Bizarre Uproar "Amputaatio"
Loke Rahbek & Puce Mary "The Female Form"
Nyodene D "Witness to the Flood"
Ride for Revenge "Ageless Powers Arise"
Keres "Battle Secrets"
Prurient "Frozen Niagara Falls"
Bekëth Nexëhmü – "De Forna Sederna"
Black Magick SS - "Hidden in Plain Sight"
Leviathan "Scar Sighted"
I will rack my brain to try to figure out which releases came out this year or not later, but for me the one that comes to mind and will be high on the list is not pure noise, but very experimental free-form industrial infused kraut-rock (or something). Very unique and engaging sound to these ears.
Ombrelli Sciolti-

Skepticism - Ordeal
Thanks for the heads-up on this! Though I'm undecided if this is good thing: a little piece of me dies whenever a blast from the past hits me this way. I think of Slint, or maybe the Pixies or some other band that worked perfectly in the original moment exhumes itself, brushes its' 20 year old greyed, balding corpse down and party's like it was 1999.
Despite the ghastly recording, Stormcrowfleet is a masterpiece.

hahaha...
Bed of Sex, Pit of Tar by Breathing Problem is one of my favorites. If it counts, Backwards by Coil, along with Amputaatio and Queen Sheets.
A lot of crap on the Coil one, too.
For me, releases by Am Not, Zyklon SS, Ke/Hil, IFOTS, Kevlar ('Totalism' tape was better than the LP), and Grunt's 'Myth of Blood' come to mind quickly.
Away from the noise, Waffenruhe had a nice tape...
Very few, I think
Chelsea Wolfe - Abyss
Total Abuse - Excluded
Grunt - Myth Of Blood
Leviathan - Scar Sighted
Rectal Hygienics - Ultimate Purity
Some albums which were also okay were Pissgrave - Suicide Euphoria, Prurient - Frozen Niagara Falls.
Some of these are very trendy albums, I know, but they're also okay in their own respect. That tends to be the way I find my music, I just hear about what's generally being talked about or get bandcamp updates for artists I bought from. Apparently there's a new Climax Denial and Beketh Nexehmu album as well, I should also check out Mgla (I never payed attention to Mgla).
