This is my list of newly released Albums that I listened/will listen to in 2024. I hope that I have the motivation to finally complete it this year and not stop halfway through.
The records are presented in order of release date and I will rate them when I´m certain that I formed an opinion on them, though the ratings might change from time to time.
I hope this list might once again be inspiring to other users maybe some people will find some new music to listen to.
Let´s see if I have the motivation to finally complete it this year and not stop halfway through.

1.Insade - Human Obsession

2.Hauntologist - Hollow

3.Magnum - Here Comes The Rain

4.Scanner - The Cosmic Race

Hoping to not beat last year's total albums, but to still find the good stuff this year.

1.Vulgaris - Seat Of The Fire

3.Persefone - Lingua Ignota: Part I

4.Eternal Storm - A Giant Bound To Fall

5.Æthĕrĭa Conscĭentĭa - The Blossoming

So it begins. 3rd year at MS, 5th year of devoted metal listening. Nothing particularly exciting coming up, but Eternal Storm looks promising, and any new Persefone is a good thing. It's early days after all.

Goal? I made it to 625 albums last year, with a pretty slack first 6 months. Aiming for 800.

Update: This list is officially discontinued, apart from albums that are good enough to warrant multiple listens, aka the top end. There are various reasons for this, but a lot of changes are happening in life and I cannot/do not want to give this much time to every release I can.

1.Aquilus - Bellum II

2.Cave Sermon - Divine Laughter

3.Illumishade - Another Side Of You

4.Persefone - Lingua Ignota: Part I

5.Solbrud - IIII
