I already have quite a few albums to look forward to in 2016, so I figured we'd go ahead and get this thread started. The two so far are the upcoming Ctheilist and Lycus albums. Ctheilist embody all that is great with strange Lovecraftian death metal, while Lycus are an incredibly solid funeral doom outfit.

You make me curious, sir. Will check it out as fast as I can.

It's one of those records that whenever I listen to it I find it hard to believe something so good can exist. Probably overselling it a bit!

Even better than something like Darkspace? I would exactly use these kind of words for |||.

For sure Arizmemda's debut is my favorite black metal record ever, too.

III is pretty amazing for sure, but I would still go for Arizmenda has that psychedelic, almost free-form type of thing I love so much.

China was a neat
Lo-fi black metal demo from "an entity from the North" as described by the label. Pretty decent I guess.

Icelandic BM supergroup that supposedly has Wrest also in it. Not bad, but not mindblowing either:

Martröð

After like two years since the band was announced the music itself was pretty meh.

I thought the music was quite good, however not as good as any of the individual members other projects. Still very excited to see how the full thing turns out

I think it turned out pretty well considering how long the songs sat around. It was a learning curve, the future is far more clear with what we're setting out to accomplish. Thanks for listening.

I guess we have to have this here. New wave of american doom metal I guess that tag includes Pallbearer and Khemmis. If you heard them then you have heard this, but its good that its here, as I can see this ending up on some year-lists.

I appreciate you commenting on our posts. I did enjoy it a lot of course.
Can you update us on the people envolved in the band?
I also must say that skaphe2 is one if the best things black metal has done in a long time, and one of my favorite records this year. Thanks very much. Keep making great music (and being busy on that).

Anything you've seen about the line up is accurate (mkm, d.g., jef, etc...), except Jef didn't have much of a role due to him recording Scar Sighted when we recorded the two tracks for the EP. Should have been released early 2015, but a rush of various delays choked us. However, for the future, we're not going to really actively say who's involved in the band, because we really, really don't want the line up to be the focus. That said, the line up isn't really changing and Jef/Hafsteinn (wormlust fella)/myself are laying the foundation for the next album. I've said too much.

Thank you! A Skaphe EP with Wormlust contributions smeared all over it will be out by the end of the year, probably. The first new Skaphe material i've written since 2014 (S1 and S2 were written pretty much at the same time). The last bit of material from 'generation one' of the band. Also, shirts.

New Mories album up for grabs.

This is some incredibly stale ambient music that really does nothing for me. Though bigger fans of ambient/drone may disagree with me.

Unf, this is some of the best sludge doom I've heard in a while. Mechanically heavy but groovy with one of the best and most versatile vocalist I've heard in a bit.

I'm so excited for this. This has only one word to describe it and it is epic.

Yepp, it will be interesting to see if they can make heavy metal great again (that means as great as Horisont did last year). It would be nice with some good hm.
