You don't.. like.. black.. metal..?

Yeah unrealbe is right, i meant melodic black. I loves me BM, cant get enough of it!

Ohh. okay. Thought you didn't like black metal.

But, while this won't be an '08 release, I'll throw it in anyway:

Some ideas have been recorded, and the frames for 6-7 songs are ready.
We will continue working on the new material during the winter, and
hopefully we will start the recordings during the summer. Our plan is
an early 2009 release, but we will let you know as things develop. My
impression so far is that this will a blacker & more atmospheric
album, but it will definitively be build on the foundation that we have
made with our previous 3 albums.

I hope they won't experiment too much with their sound. I quite like I Krig.

paradox new album leaked, I did not even know they were releasing one. Great great news.

A few that i've downloaded today:
Behexen - My Soul For His Glory
Brain Drill - Apocalyptic Feasting
Dantalion - Call of the Broken Souls
Dark Fury - Fortress Of Eagles
Decrepit Birth - Diminishing Between Worlds
Ossein - Declination
Paganus - Paganus
Pest - Rest In Morbid Darkness

I havent heard any of these bands before, but hopefully ill find a gem or two in there.

Ahhh holy shit! A Silver Mt. Zion has a new album coming out in March but it's already leaked. I didn't even know there would be more material from them! 4 songs, the shortest one is over 13 minutes long, I'm unzipping it now, can't wait! Could be a top 10 album of 2008 easily.

Really? wow. They havent really clicked with me yet for some reason, but hell im getting that. Where did you get it from?
EDIT: Never mind, i found it on Sordo. And i assume you got it there as well. Also, has a better version of This Will Destroy You album leaked yet? Does anyone know?

Wow, new A Silver Mt. Zion release? I knew it was coming out someime in 2008... Is it good?

Hmm, I found a slick-looking fansite. Cool design.

Dantalion's surely my pick of the lot. Well...its one of my best listens of 2008 so far, possibly along with the Warbringer album. Hmm...have you got the new Isole? Its a nice album. Also, I heard Paganus is good.

new rage has leaked, this will be one of the best albums of 2008

I haven't d/l'ed any versions of the new TWDY because of the whole crappy version thing yet, so no. If I do, I'll let you know though, I've been looking forward to their new album.

@Evil Scientist
It's awesome, could be their best yet. It's probably their heaviest release yet, it almost borders on Progressive Rock at some points. It's just plain awesome though.

Cool, I'll grab it soon.

As Advent said, it's on Sordo if you need to know where to go, and that's where I got it.

Yeah, I found it and wanted to download it in the morning but somewhy mediafure AND rapidshare were malfunctioning-

For some reason i had a good feeling about Dantalion. And im really not into the traditional side of doom so i probably wont be checking out the new Isole.

That might explain why I hated the sound by times. It was cracking all the time.

Im not sure if this is old or new news, but Protest The Hero's Fortress has leaked.

A new Sahg album is supposed to come as an early 2008 release.

Just found out that Monolithe are almost finished recording their new album, which is to be appropriately titled 'Monolithe III'. Just vocals need to be done and the band is hoping for a March release. Though thats probably a bit optimistic.

Cant wait for this one!!!

Flametal released a new album yesterday. :O I have to look for it, now!
Edit: Aaargh, can't find it.

It leaked on the 22nd, Vagrant keeps a tight ship on their albums, they don't leak for a long time. It officially comes out the 29th, along with the new Mars Volta album (which leaked a week or two ago), and I am officially buying both on their release dates, not downloading either. I haven't really done that for many highly anticipated albums since I've discovered the magic of the interwebz, so I'm hoping it increases the enjoyment of finally hearing both.

Ugh, it's so hard not to download them, especially when I've had at least 3 people already send me the link for the new PTH, and another for the new TMV. Hopefully it'll be worth it.

Haha, hang in there mate. You can do it!!! I've done that for a few albums and it sucks i know.

Was it worth it in the end?

Just so the pressure grows...

...the new Protest is fantastic!

Jester says it made him cum in his pants, so you really haven't added much more pressure than that.

Also +10 "Ryan Thinks You're Awesome Points" for the two quotes in your signature. Big Gaffigan, bigger Hedberg fan.
