But I think that by strict definition they are not a metal band. They don't have that chug-a-chug riffing or post-metal quality to them (like Pelican or Isis). <br /><br />BTW, I didn't include Russian Cirlces as being a 'metal' act this year even though in the past they would most certainly qualify.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13003484633933455827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8692213245160661447.post-32563483747894686572009-12-08T22:46:25.208-05:002009-12-08T22:46:25.208-05:00One of the better lists of best metal albums of 20...One of the better lists of best metal albums of 2009 around so far. Personally, I don't think anything comes close to Crack the Skye this year but it's a fair representation of some of this year's best releases.<br /><br />Bands missing IMO are Sylosis, Pathosray, and Redemption.<br /><br />Wonder why "And So I Watch You From Afar" isn't on the list, or is that not considered in the vicinity of metal for you?ForeverRedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06026247619679233299noreply@blogger.com
