LISTMANIA 2K22 Day 3 struts in, and your paltry paycheck knows the hour is close at hand. Dollars shrivel in its presence. BoFa<\/a> accounts cower in abject terror. The good folks Theophrastus Bombastus<\/strong>, Joaquin Stick<\/strong>, and Megachiles<\/strong> are serving up hot list action, so prepare to pay up for newfound favorites!<\/p>\n

Theophrastus Bombastus<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It’s that time of year again, folks, the time when we aggregate all of our extremely objective, highly empirical lists of everything that struck our fancy this year. If an album from this year is not on this list or any others on this site, you should delete it from this site, send its makers vile things in the mail and probably lash yourself several dozen times for the extreme errors in your judgment.<\/p>\n

Now, obviously the best album of the year was Chat Pile \u2013 God’s Country<\/em><\/a><\/strong>. Who’s that, you ask? Why, none other than Chat Pile<\/strong>, whose sonic decision-making is sure to reverberate across the generations. In those days, the smiths of Oklahoma<\/a>\u00a0surpassed all that they had contrived before; and they took thought, and they made God’s Country<\/em>. […] Now the metalheads made many songs; but secretly Raygun Busch made “Slaughterhouse”<\/a>\u00a0to rule all the others, and their power was bound up with it, to be subject wholly to it and to last only so long as it too should last.<\/p>\n

Because of conflicts of interest and a general lack of confidence in my ability to tell you what else to listen to (especially given that I just listened to the very compelling Ashenspire<\/strong><\/a> record today despite having had the promo months ago), I’m doing genre favorites instead. Below, you’ll find my subjective take on each offshoot ov metal’s sickest output ov 2022, plus a lot ov other stuff, too.<\/p>\n

Favorite black metal<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a>Terzij de Horde <\/strong>\u2013\u00a0In One of These, I Am Your Enemy
\n<\/em>ConSouling Sounds | Mini<\/a><\/p>\n

What’s my favorite black metal ov 2022, you ask? Why, that’d be courtesy of Utrecht’s Terzij de Horde, the vitalistic Utrecht black metallers whose last contribution came 7 years ago via the introspective Self<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0In One of These, I Am Your Enemy\u00a0<\/em>goes pretty much only fast and encapsulates metaphysical rage better than many others did in a year that warranted plenty of it. A blisteringly concise album, I told everyone I could about In One of These…\u00a0<\/em>this year, and now I’m telling you again: it’s really good, and this was a year with a lot of really good black metal.<\/p>\n
