Immortal "Battles In The North"

Immortal "Sons of Northern Darkness"

My mood swings this week are still terrible. Spent most of the morning really down then had a complete mania phase when I got home again earlier. On a more positive note, I am off to see my Uncle later who is now in a care home and although not cured is not drinking alcohol anymore. Really should be visiting more often than we do though. Also going to take the mountain of gifts, freebies and bribes from companies me and the gf receive in our respective jobs and donate them to the home he is in for all the residents.

Immortal "Pure Holocaust"

Inquisition "Obscure Verses For The Multiverse"

MacabreEternal's Top 10 of 1993 10 Wombbath "Internal Caustic Torment" The true definition of an unsung classic DM album. From Sweden but not as obvious in terms of the sound as you would expect. 9 Sepultura "Chaos AD" It hasn't held up well over the years but it is still a moment on my metal timeline I wont forget in a hurry. Looking back now it is a real step down from what came before but back in 93 I still loved it and played it to death. 8 Satyricon "Dark Medieval Times" Icy cold atmosphere and some decent riffs combined to make the debut full length from Satyricon a memorable one. I only just recently discovered this one but I am fucking glad I did. 7 Varathron "His Majesty At The Swamp" Hellenic BM at its very best. Warm and melodic yet still creepy. 6 Carcass "Heartwork" Yes I know it was a big departure from previous outings but I still loved "Heartwork" back in the day and for years it was my favoured Carcass opus. Nowadays I am more of a "Necroticism..." guy but this still gets props as one of the most memorable metal records I heard growing up. 5 Morbid Angel "Covenant" I can't really place "Covenant" that highly in the MA discography as a whole but in terms of releases from 1993 it is up there. I find it an inconsistent release yet when it is on it is "bang on". 4 Demilich "Nespithe" It's mind-boggling to think of the amount of thought that went into this record. I can't really compare it to any other album I know of either. One of the true standout releases in metal. 3 Darkthrone "Under A Funeral Moon" Probably their most BM release. Just released in too good a year to hit top spot. 2 Burzum "Det Som Engang Var" Raw and aggressive yet still furiously dark throughout. 1 Immortal "Pure Holocaust" Fucking hell, how furious is this attack of BM evil? From the simple to the point cover to the equally blunt and direct delivery "Pure Holocaust" was an Immortal on fire in a vast icy wasteland.

Asphyx "Deathhammer"

This would be another honourable mention.

Cannibal Corpse "Kill"

Incantation "Dirges of Elysium"

Immortal Bird "Empress/Abscess"

Carcass "Necroticism..."

Immortal Bird didn't quite make the cut but does deserve an honourable mention. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Mogwai "Les Revenants"

If anyone cares to mention their favourites so we can all point, stare and generally laugh in their direction then lets do it here. After me poo pooing (so British it hurts) someone the other day for looking at current/forthcoming releases- may have been Fenmetal? - I actually ran my blog and came up with 10 releases from this year which I am too lazy to re-type so I will blatantly link here: http://eminentsilence.blogspot.co.uk/
