Now This is Metal...


Brutal. This is Behemoth, a Polish death metal band. So over the top absurd I just had to share...

a few words about 2k9

today i completed my baseline listening for the year; play count greater than 3, date added before 12/24/09. from that i will remove comet gain broken record prayers from consideration as it is a reissue of material from the previous 15 years. it was new to me and i recommend it strongly for anyone who is losing faith in 90's music. that leaves me with 85 albums and ep's for which i have the complete article. now i have to pick 20 and i really don't know much more than that none of the ep's bowled me over enough to merit selection.

if we adhere to the deadline we have used in past years then 2k9 lists are due at noon on friday 5 february. however to whatever extent possible i would like to pull that up a few days or so. if we can get the math done on the composite top 20 before the party then perhaps we can work in advance on narrowing down our selections for the comp. i would rather bang that out and have time for rock band or our own playlists than struggle late into the night as we did last year. that being said, i am prepared to be shouted down in favor of status quo.
