Murmuüre - Murmuüre

I think originally it was a 2 hours long live performance, what this guy did was cutting the great parts, put them together and reworked them on his computer for 3 years. The result, an experimental audiophile lo-fi black metal album that makes OK Computer sound like the second greatest album ever. Enjoy.

I know the year isn't over yet but fuck it.

1. Tenhi - Saivo
  One of the greatest albums I ever heard, coming from the legendary finnish band Tenhi. It's a very slow grower but it's worth all the time in the world to get into it, as it is the band's finest effort in 15 years of music making. They have been working on this album for 4-5 years and recorded and mixed in an entire year, but don't expect your mind to be blown upon the first listen, it takes a while to fully understand it, even if you are a fan of this genre or the band like I am.



2. Steven Wilson - Grace for Drowning
  I hate Porcupine Tree, I hate pseudo-progressive alternative rock, I hate this fucking guy! but this album is incredible. It is also very consistent considering it's a double disc release, Deform to Form a Star and Postcard are two of the best songs of the year, and the other tracks are almost just as good. It's also the first album in the world released on a blu-ray disc so if you're an audiophile this will make your ears very happy.



3. Swarms - Old Raves End
  The best dubstep / future garage album ever, period. I have nothing to say about this, let the music speak for itself. Highly recommended for the fans of Boards of Canada or Burial.




Rest in no particular order. Maybe I missed a couple but that's only because I was too busy listening to old music this year.

Cancelled

I had the idea of making a best of so I asked SuspiciousOne to edit it because I really like his editing style and cam angles. I sent him the best short metal song I know and he finished the editing in about 6 hours or less, he's pretty much God. I called it Ashen because it sounds metal and anime at the same time, in one word kickass.
Stunting is pretty clean except for the fact most of the stunts were modded, but imo they look pretty badass and stylish. FUCKING ENJOY.

Overall it was one of the worst years for music, but there still were some cool record released.

The Tallest Man on Earth - The Wild Hunt
Absolutely perfect in every way. Almost legendary, one of the best albums ever made.


Sufjan Stevens - The Age of Adz
Sometimes even pretentious egocentric indie artist can make masterpieces, here's one of them.


Deftones - Diamond Eyes
Pretty amazing, almost all tracks are awesome.

You need Magic Bullet Looks, NewBlue Ghost, NewBlue Dream Glow.
And both stunts are modded, first only with a handling.cgf modification, and the second with a small boost so I can reach the bump. I could've modded them less obviously, but they're not important so...
