| _____________________________ [Dec 22,2006 4:26pm - pam ""] Fintroll/Sodom in NY Morbid Angel @ Palladium Katatonia @ Marks Destruction @ The Middle East Carnivore in CT My favorite album is probably I-Between Two Worlds. New Katatonia ruled too. I spent 2006 reverting back to the 80s so I have no idea what happened. |
| _______________________________________ [Dec 22,2006 4:28pm - y_ddraig_goch ""] I wish I made it to finntroll in New York, but I am against all travel south of Massachusetts |
| _____________________________ [Dec 22,2006 4:30pm - pam ""] Normally I avoid it, but that show was not to be missed. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 22,2006 4:31pm - hunterhunter ""] Ewigkeit - Conspiritus (James Fogarty AKA Jaldaboath of Meads of Asphodel) |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 22,2006 4:32pm - HeavensJail ""] I didn't buy a lot of new records this year, so personally I have to toss it up between Agalloch and Drudkh's Blood In Our Wells. As for concerts, I went to Wacken this year, so I can't really give a fair answer. Morbid Angel, BG, Hirax, and Suffocation-Hypocrisy-Decapitated are all up there among normal shows though. |

The new Third Death and Scapegoat 7"s were definitely noteworthy. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 22,2006 7:43pm - Ryan_M ""] My favorite show this year would have to be Morbid Angel/Krisiun. Celtic Frost was a good show too. As far as CD's go - I really have no intrest in new bands or albums. When I want to hear something new, I look to the past. This year I discovered the greatness of Pentagram and old Mercyful Fate - something I should have done back when I was 16 and just starting to get into metal. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 22,2006 11:52pm - xanonymousx ""] to tell you the truth i really didn't buy that many cds this year [that are new 2006 releases] but i really enjoyed misery index my favorite show probably hmmmm seeing converge at the sounds of the underground cause i didn't see them at the lido... |
| __________________________________________________________________ [Dec 24,2006 3:18am - Josh Martin is bored and in Connecticut ""] I hardly went to any shows this year. When I was 21 I would go to like 2 shows a week. I'm fucking ancient now and don't care that much anymore. But from what I did make it out to: Anal Cunt/Hirax in Brooklyn um.....Shit, the only other show I can even remember going to was Destruction at the Middle East. I know I saw a few others but I can't think of them right now.....Oh yeah, Watchmaker in Lowell was pretty good. The only 2006 release I got was the Pentagram demos CD Vol. 2. |

| __________________________________ [Dec 24,2006 1:40pm - niflheim ""] Mouth of the Architect's The Ties That Blind is my top pick of 2006. Biggest letdown goes to ISIS - In the Absence of Truth Best show I attended this year was Megadeth. So many classics, all played flawlessly. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 24,2006 5:32pm - retzam ""] Hmmm, for concerts definitely Maiden in October, with Blind Guardian and Coheed up there too. Agalloch gets album of the year for me, with The Prize Fighter Inferno debut and the new Maiden getting honorable mentions. |
