2016: The Bests


I did not spend much time searching for/listening to music in 2016, so recommendations are more than welcomed. Some of the stuff towards the end of the list are likely to be deleted.

Loving that Onefnt demo.

Yeah I love it, too. It is short and neat and has great production.

Did you listen to Dysylumn's Chaos Primordial? It's right up your alley.

I think I heard two tracks from it. It was good enough but I was not in the mood, and saved it for future investigations.
for killer death metal this year that went unnoticed, check that Spectral Apparition band. Great sound and songwriting, produced by the frontman of esoteric.

so I checked it, and while I see what U guys like about them, they sound a bit meandering (?) to me. I had this impression that they aimed for a death metal band playing dsbm maybe I'm just crazy.
