Cool thread. Unfortunately I don't have any 2012 recommendations. I have barely heard any albums from 2012, metal and non metal.
Good place to find some gems I'm sure.
Another good place is bandcamp. You can faff all day on there and in the end you'll probably have atleast 2 solid releases. I think I'm going to do that.

Just look at that charming visage, how could you possibly go past that?

Instru Hip-hop. One would think it would sound empty and boring...Well Hypnotikz just proves them wrong.

Edit: Another great Instru project that touches many spheres of the music world

Not album recs, but a couple songs. New Sidney Samson single and an Afrojack-Shermanology collab.

I wrote "spinned" instead of "spun" in my 2011 list so I feel for you

When a classical composer dives in electronic music. Good stuff is sure to happen

MS seems to have an inbuilt auto-correct

Well, you get auto-corrected when you type "colour" instead of "color", so I just supposed "oh, this is one of those British/American variations where the inflexional suffix differs, like dreamed/dreamt" which is, of course, a mistake of catastrophic proportions, because it wasn't so much about the shape of "-ed", as it was about the presence of it

But there comes the other inbuilt auto-correction: Joe.

Yes, the latter was the one I was referring to.

Hahahahahaha good one dude
Now I better go and find a non-metal album to recommend to make up for this much off topic posts.

Written by Milena on 03.04.2012 at 09:31

this much off topic posts.

Should be either: "These much off topic posts" or "This much off topic post"

I was going to write that my posts were much off topic and that there were many of them in the same time, which lead to your usual much/many switch

Yeah, my brain is apparently trolling me today.

Can anyone recommend me some noise similar to government alpha and skullflower?
preferably something rather fast with not too many repetitions

If you mean general recommendations then the likes of: Masonna, Merzbow, Incapacitants, Hijokaidan, The Gerogerigegege, K.K. Null, The Bastard Noise, Birchville Cat motel, Hototogisu, Axolotl and also stuff by Whitehouse, Sutcliffe Jugend etc etc. There's tons of noise out there.

For this year check out the 2012 albums by Prurient, Merzbow/Marhaug split, T.O.M.B., maybe the new Aaron Dilloway, Gauchiste and Daniel Menche.

thank you very much, will try, but of what i heard so far i dislike merzbow

That's odd, most of what I've heard of Government Alpha is pretty similar to Merzbow. Try the others any way, they're all quite different in their own ways.

Yes, yes back to the music
This sounds pretty good to me, labelled as 'World music' for those who like that sort of thing, I particularly like the album cover:

well, i haven"t heard remotely close to enough by either to judge their complete works, but the government alpha i heard was faster, more distorted, more screeching, not so obviously electronic, simply more intense compared to the merzbow i heard

Well most recent Merzbow sounds like this =P (though this is probably his harshest album to date)
