Well another year went by so it is time for me to make a list of ALL my favorite releases this year. I didn't exactly keep up with every underground or main stream release for that matter. I didn't even hear all that many new albums this year. Pretty much, What you see is what I bought. However I had just enough to make an adequate list. I think I at least nailed all the heavy hitters anyway. Feel free to message me about the things I missed that I NEED to hear. Enjoy!

1.Napalm Death - Utilitarian

2.Cannibal Corpse - Torture

3.Cattle Decapitation - Monolith Of Inhumanity

4.Aborted - Global Flatline

5.Pig Destroyer - Book Burner
