Met dank aan de onvolprezen PvdP wil ik nog graag Hail Spirit Noir - Fossil Gardens (is het kosmisch? black? psych? doom? tech? het is het allemaal!), Piah Mater - Under the shadow of a foreign sun (de wél interessante plaat die Opeth had moeten maken) en Lowen - Do not go to war with the demons of mazandaran (de hysterisch-Iraanse zus van Gojira) noemen.
This time we only coincide on the greatness of Blood Incantation (astonishingly I keep finding more and more people who don't like Absolute Elsewhere at all) and Udåd, which I also placed on my list thanks to discovering it back in its week of release thanks to you (same as it happened with my biggest find of the year, Effluence, which has made me reconsider and finally love brutal death metal:) Thanks for your great weekly work / labour of love for Metal!
Don't trust people who don't like Absolute Elsewhere haha! And yeah Effluence is amazing, I think I got it from the lamented Black Market over at Stereogum. Where to find my brutal death gems now.. Thanks for reading!
Hey, I’m JQ!
I’ll say for me that my number one is easily Absolute Elsewhere — seeing them play it live sealed it for me in particular.
Here’s to a great 2025, I look forward to each week’s post!

Heb je Thy Catafalque ook gecheckt? Past helemaal in je straatje!
Fijn Peter, ga zo door!
Enne, top lijstje. Ik ken er 7 niet , dus dat is precies wat helpt bij een top tien eindlijst
Ha top, hopelijk hoor je nog iets tofs!

Yes! Love your annual top list and excited to jump back into some of what I missed from the year. Appreciate you, Peter!
Cheers Tony!!
Fraai lijstje weer! Ik zou Oud Zeer van Throwing Bricks & Ontaard er nog wel bij willen zetten 🧱 Gelukkig & gezond nieuwjaar Peter!
Ja die is ook tof, thanks! Jij ook een mooi jaar!
Spotify. Worst thing to ever happen to music. I like this newsletter, but if it's not on bandcamp, I'm not interested.
