2007 In Review

Discuss some of 2007's good (and bad)...

Below is a list of some 2007 albums I enjoyed. Because I recently started catching up, some ratings were determined after only 1-2 listens and are subject to change And yes, I realize I have LOTS more to listen to.


High On Fire - Death Is This Communion



Stoner Metal
Rating: 5 / 5

One of my favorite albums of the year. This review sums up my thoughts:

Quote:
If it was ever in question, the institution that is High On Fire is secured with this overwhelming release. And the sensation you get from listening to this record is one of being slowly ripped limb from limb... and loving every minute of it. This violent, primal connection between listener and High On Fire may be best summed up in Pike’s snarling lines from the title track, "Now you realize, Death Is This Communion."


Electric Wizard - Witchcult Today



Stoner / Doom Metal

Wolves In The Throne Room - Two Hunters



Black Metal
