Goatwhore - Carving Out The Eyes Of God (2009)

1) Apocalyptic Havoc
2) The All-Destroying
3) Carving Out The Eyes Of God
4) Shadow Of A Rising Knife
5) Provoking The Ritual Of Death
6) In Legions, I Am Wars Of Wrath
7) Reckoning Of The Soul Made Godless
8) This Passing Into The Power Of Demons
9) Razor Flesh Devoured
10) To Mourn And Forever Wander Through Forgotten Doorways

I was pleasantly surprised with Goatwhore's new album. Naturally, I was expecting another A Haunting Curse, but this album has a heavier, thrashier feel to it. As far as lyrics go, it's still the same Goatwhore we've all come to love (or not). Overall, Carving Out The Eyes Of God is an improvement from Goatwhore's last album.

Harvestman - In a Dark Tongue (2009)

1) World Ash
2) Karlsteine
3) Birch-Wood Bower
4) By Wind and Sun
5) Music of the Dark Torrent
6) Eibhli Ghail Chiuin Ni Chearbhail
7) Headless Staves of Poets
8) The Hawk of Achill
9) Carved in Aspen
10) Light Cycle
11) In a Dark Tongue
12) Centre of the World

It should be known that there is no such thing as a bad Neurosis side project. Steve Von Till's work under the name Harvestman is strong evidence. In a Dark Tongue, Harvestman's sophomore effort, features a cross between Neurosis' brand of sludge and northwestern US folk metal.

Mastodon - Crack the Skye (2009)

1) Oblivion
2) Divinations
3) Quintessence
4) The Czar: Usurper/Escape/Martyr/Spiral
5) Ghost of Karelia
6) Crack the Skye
7) The Last Baron

You know how every year there's that one mainstream album that kicks ass? Well this year, that album is Crack the Skye. Instead of the usual obnoxious groove metal, Mastodon opted for a sludgier and more psychedelic sound on this album. Scott Kelly of Neurosis appears on the title track, performing guest vocals.
