You haven't heard Lee's 2012 album? Or Godspeed? Man I hate to. Say this but, you need to steal some music or something.

It must have been really hard for you to go trough Pitchfork's best so far and write like you're gay about music. Sorry.

very good year, tough to narrow it down but I'll try 10...
Haino / O'Rourke / Ambarchi - Imikuzushi (with Nazoranai not far behind as is the new Fushitsusha)
White Suns - Sinews
Actress - RIP
Russell Haswell - Scandinavian Parts (Immersive Live Salvage)
Robert Hampson - Repercussions
Vessel - Order of Noise
Shackleton - Music for the Quiet Hour / The Drawbar Organ EPs
Andy Stott - Luxury Problems
Carter Tutti Void - Transverse
Earth - Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light II
honourable mentions: Swans, Demdike Stare, the Haxan Cloak,JK Flesh, Lukid...forgetting a lot here. plus the Sunn O))) rehearsal demo and all the Merzbow boxes as the latter two don't really constitute albums at all.

Needed more, so thanks.

Another album worth checking out. I am pretty sure I first heard their music when the guy who runs Holy Mountain posted a clip on his FB page.


 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5DWd...eature=related

This was one of the first groups to emerge from the new Italian rock scene. They formed in London in 1967 on the initiative of pop singer Ricky Maiocchi (ex-Camaleonti) who needed a new backing group. Many British beat bands moved to Italy in the late sixties in search of gigs, among them The Sorrows, The Primitives and The Talismen. Most of the original Trip members were also English, including (future Deep Purple axeman) Ritchie Blackmore, who eventually became homesick and returned to England. When Joe Vescovi was recruited in 1969, he quickly became the leader of the group, updating their sound with the current (pioneering) Anglo-American attempts to expand the rock format, blending it together with the inspiration and composing techniques of 17th and 19th century classical music.
On their eponymous first album, The Trip almost sounded like a cross between Vanilla Fudge, The Nice and Quatermass (another group that had a great deal of influence on the early Italian rock scene; they released their only album in 1970). "Prologo" almost pastiched the organ work of Mark Stein on Vanilla Fudge's first album. Other enlightening features were Billy Gray's Blackmoresque guitar parts and Joe Vescovi's distinctive, high-pitched voice. The album showed great promise, but didn't quite succeed in creating an integrated group sound. Organ parts of great emotional intensity were sometimes followed by almost banal vocal arrangements in a more pop tradition.
However, better things were soon to come when The Trip released their masterpiece, "Caronte" in 1971. The powerful interplay between Gray and Vescovi is excellent throughout the album. If the "dream collaboration" between Jimi Hendrix and Keith Emerson had ever happened, then I imagine it would have sounded close to this! The finest example of this is on "Two Brothers", which merged psychedelic, heavy and classical flavours of rock. By now, Vescovi could afford a mellotron, offering mellow string textures on the track, "Little Janie". The excellent rhythm section throughout the album, courtesy of Andersen and Sinnone, was also notable. Speaking of Jimi Hendrix, the album also included the mournful requiem "Ode a J.Hendrix".
