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.
