Akbar:
To be perfectly honest I can't remember what the last record I bought was. I'll have to think for a spell.

Hmm, it might have been The Bronx's debut album actually. I'm still not sure.
I sure as hell know what my next purchase will be though. Håkan Hellstöm's Ett Kolikbarns Bekännelser is released on the sixteenth I think. Actually, I couldn't wait untill then so I 'aquired' it from other sources just the other day - and it was bloody brilliant, it was. Can't wait to get it 'for real'.

Actually, Funeral For A Friend can write some good riffs when they really want to. I must say their first EP was way better, if you ask me, though. More screams = better, at least in my world.

I have Casually Dressed and Deep in Conversation and Between Order and Model. I must admit I like a few of their songs, but a lot of it gets too samey for me. '10:45 Amsterdam Conversation' is my fave by them.
Yesterday I had the good fortune to purchase 3 Inches of Blood-Advance and Vanquish Although I've already heard it all, it was still fucking awesome. The entire feel of the album can be summed up by the first thirty seconds. 'Fear on the Bridge (Upon the Boiling Sea part 1)' starts with the sound of a fuse running down, followed by a cannon shot before instantly breaking in with intense, old-school metal riffing over metalcore screams before Cam Pipes, who sounds somewhat like Judas Priest front-man Rob Halford after swallowing a cheese-grater, screams: "TORMENTS! From the pits of HELL! In the seas where PIRATES dwell! The Armada sets its course, shadowed by SKULL and crossboned FORCE!". The album continues in much the same vein: A fusion of total 80's metal worship (Mercyful Fate, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Running Wild etc.) combined with ultra-slick modern production and encased in a thin sheen of modern brutality by the inclusion of the metalcore singer. It's got Orcs, Barbarians, Pirates, Cyborg death-robots from the year 4055, a 'Crush the enemies of metal' song (Deadly Sinners), a 'Glories of Metal' song (Crazy Nights)...In this era of NWOSDM, 'New-thrash' and prog-metal, this is the most refreshing thing imaginable to a metal-fan such as myself.

Pan Sonic-Kesto
Been trying to get this beast for ages. I have listened to all of it but I was really drunk when I popped in the last two disks (The last disk which is on 60 minute ambient piece was awesome. Starting my second listen now. The whole album is dark ambient/industrial tinged stuff with no vocals or samples but it nonetheless has incredible variety to it.
Kid 606-Kill Sound Before Sound Kills You
This was a totally random purchase. I was taking a quick look through the used CD store and thought, hey what the heck I heard a couple tracks by this? Its actually pretty good even. Pretty insane techno that meanders all over the place with a ton of samples and such.
Malice Afterthought:
I buy a lot of my stuff from www.midheaven.com (click on midheaven mailorder). Thats were I got the other two releases I posted about from. There are a couple full length charalambides MP3s at http://www.betterpropaganda.com/artist_page.asp?id=97. Don't know were you could hear the tanakh album though there are some samples of their older stuff hidden away on theirs lable's site at http://www.alien8recordings.com/tanakh.php3.
