(Abigail Williams released one of our favorite albums of 2015 — to read our review of it and check out the music if you haven’t already, go HERE — and today we bring you a year-end list by AW’s Ken Sorceron.)
In no particular order:
Akhlys – The Dreaming I
Obsequiae – Aria of Vernal Tombs
Leviathan – Scar Sighted
Tribulation – The Children of The Night
Abyssal – Antikatastaseis
Sulphur Aeon – Gateway to the Antisphere
Mortuus Umbra – Catechism
Cattle Decapitation – The Anthropocene Extinction
Batushka – Litourgiya
Serpent Noir – Erotomysticism
Bell Witch – Four Phantoms
Darchon – The Stygian Black Beyond
VI – De Praestigiis Angelorum
MGLA – Exercises in Futility
Gruesome – Savage Land
That Batuskha album is incredible… found it too late to add to my own list 😛
Nice to see Serpent Noir get a mention. Really interesting and unique sounding album that one.
Solid list.
Always good to see Obsequiae, and Batushka is amazing.
Babushka came out of nowhere at the tail end of the year from an underground Polish label, and it’s great to see that even under those circumstances the word is spreading. Amazing album.
Babushka? A most un-metal band name.
BaTushka dammit. Fucking autocorrect. It even “corrects” Slavic names.
