Really looking forward to the Leviathan and Pocahaunted releases now that you have pointed them out. Both of these artists dwell on labels with difficult web presences, so it's nice to get some clarity.

that new death in june record is quite possibly the worst thing they've ever released.

I am seriously psyched about whats come out this year already. It may be better than last year...

New Sinaloa record is really great. Gifts From Enola / You.May.Die.In.The.Desert is really great too..

loving the Earth album. New 5ive is awesome! Same with the new Gregor Samsa...

Drowning With Our Anchors, Algernon Cadwallader (yes, im hooked now, i resisted, but its too fucking charming.) Atlas Sound, Black Mountain, Nick Cave... and Silver Mount Zion, which is getting universally trashed, is easily my favorite record of theirs so far.
