Nice call on the Blind Idiot God record…I can’t believe that thing finally came out…I saw them back in the 90s in a little hole in the wall club in NYC…great show,great band…

Too soon for me to even think about this.
Records by Uncle Acid, Ghost, In Gowan Ring, Cocorosie, and other bands I really like that I can’t remember are coming out this year.

I don’t think I’ve bought a single new album this year.
I’ve bought plenty of CD’s, but nothing that was released in 2015.

Did Voidy’s CD come out in 2015? If so, that’s my only nomination too! I don’t own it, but of anything discussed so far it is the best and the only thing I know and have heard.

I can’t believe I’m admitting this, but I think, technically, I have to put Primitive Race in my #2 slot because, aside from Justin Symbol, it is literally the only new album (or is it even an album?) I’ve heard AT ALL. Sure, I’ve only heard 10 second snippets and they were all terrible, but . . . . damn technicalities. Symbol has a HUUUUUUUGGE lead over that damn retard collective, though.

The only new releases I’ve picked up so far are:

Faith No More: Sol Invictus
Mad Max: Fury Road [Soundtrack]
Marilyn Manson: The Pale Emperor
Napalm Death: Apex Predator - Easy Meat
PIG vs Primitive Race: Long In The Tooth [EP]
The Prodigy: The Day Is My Enemy
Black December: Vol. 1

Number 1 is by and far Faith No More. Great, great album. I got the PR EP and have been meaning to post about it. It’s ok. Some of the remixes are good. Other than that, a fairly uneventful year. The Prodigy album is about 50% good.

We still have Slayer and a new Cocksure to look forward to though.

Same. Except for the new Squarepusher.

Nothing new out there that interests me. But I really haven’t looked.

No. VOIDHEAD was released in 2014.

My 2015 releases/purchases:

Faith No More - Sol Invictus
PIG vs. Primitive Race - Long in the Tooth
Ministry Trax Box RSD 2015
GWAR RSD 2015
Justin Symbol - FUCKHEAD (2 new songs and 12 remixes)
Failure - The Heart is a Monster

Waiting for Cocksure

Trax! Box is definitely my pick of the year.

VNV Nation’s Resonance is also excellent. I can’t wait to hear the new New Order that’s coming out.

En Esch - Spank
Veil of Maya - Matriarch
Pig v Primitive Race - Long in the Tooth
Trax Box
Z-Ro - Melting the Crown

I can’t believe I’m admitting this, but I think, technically, I have to put Primitive Race in my #2 slot because, aside from Justin Symbol, it is literally the only new album (or is it even an album?) I’ve heard AT ALL. Sure, I’ve only heard 10 second snippets and they were all terrible, but . . . . damn technicalities. Symbol has a HUUUUUUUGGE lead over that damn retard collective, though.

I’ve got to hand it to Primitive Race - the album actually came out on Friday. You can buy it and everything. And they managed to beat Bells Into Machines to the gate.
So kudos to them.

Damn, a lot has changed since August . . . I actually have some new albums this year.

Motorhead (I can’t remember the name of the album)
Iron Maiden
Ghost - Meloria

I haven’t bought a huge number of albums this year, but Killing Joke’s new one was phenomenal. Oh, and Danzig, obviously [:)]

I can’t get Meloria out of my player…that shit is musical crack…

Meloria is easily the Album of the Year for me.

Besides cds from a handful of local bands that I bought this year, I think the only other two were:

Slayer - Repentless
Pop Will Eat Itself - Anti Nasty League

Yeah,Meloria is outstanding…

A lot of the stuff The Ruts has listed,I agree with…really loved the FNM and BIG release…Can Ox was unexpected greatness…some great Laswell releases that I bought this year and I am sure plenty of other shit I am forgetting about…I am the worst when it comes to list time…at my age all the years just blend together…

Slayer - Repentless

I forgot about that one, great album!

Trax! Box is definitely my pick of the year.

VNV Nation’s Resonance is also excellent. I can’t wait to hear the new New Order that’s coming out.

New Order/Joy Division ruled the earth!

That Ministry Trax Box is an epic milestone! The unreleased cuts are like so beautifully done, I’d like to strangle the generic metal out of this junkie retard fuck!! There’s no excuse for turning ur back on ur own great music except that you became a worthless piece of shit lowlife loser, Al Jourgensen! You should truly be ashamed of yourself. Ya wanna crawl outta poverty you cry-baby dumbass motherfucker? DO TOUR OF SYNTH-POP STUFF & SEE HOW FAST TICKETS SELL-OUT FOR ARENA SHOWS…never mind these dingy loser nite-clubs ya act like ur special playing…are you fucking kidding me? At this stage in ur career, ur still playing dive bars? Please have the decency to file bankruptcy and collect welfare/food stamps, Uncle Fucknut. There’s more dignity in doing that than there is in continuing this terrible abomination you turned Ministry into. [:(]
