Top 13 of '13 (so far...a mid years fart to giving a shit)
As I sit here drinking a friends homebrew I'm reminded of the amazing efforts produced thus far by this years metal offerings. This year is all but half way over and there has been an outstanding number of stand out releases so far. Although I have quite the back log of albums in wait, the following list is of my favorite so far over the first 6 months... i hope you enjoy (and purchase) these albums!

Sore Implanted- Promo 2013
Sore Implanted
Promo 2013
From- Germany
Genre- Death Metal
So these guys just dropped me an email containing 2 vicious tracks that really grabbed my attention right away. Sore Implanted hails from Germany and plays an aggressive semi-slamming style of brutal death metal with a grinding edge. This is a promising demo that is worth your time. Check it out and give these guys a 'like' on Facebook.

2. At Empire's End
3. Lost Life
4. Devours Everything
5. Partitioning the Sensible
"Our sound can be described as a riff heavy doom-laden blend of black metal and really fucking pissed off hardcore, with a tendency from time to time to drop tempo into slower paced death metal. We hail from Brooklyn NY and all grew up in and around the NYHC scene playing in bands and going to shows. While our sound is as metal as it comes, we carry our selves like the hardcore bands we grew up digging, that is DIY and pissed as fuck! FFO: craft, converge, hooded menace, vastum, mamothgrinder, deathwish bands, etc"

Munk's Top 66(6) of 2012, Part 4, 29-1 (been super lazy edition)
Here we are about to wrap up the first full month of 2013 and my fat ass is still dwelling in the past choking on every one else's grimy blogging dust. Alright, no news flash! I'm a lazy piece of shit, but if JGD can get back into the swing of things I guess I could at least give my much shittier blog the good old didn't-make-it-though-2-weeks-of-college try. Its quite sad because I really thought I had my shit together there for a minute. Before I can even pretend to begin posting new shit I felt obligated to finish the massive undertaking I set out on about a month ago. Note to self, don't ever try to compile a list of your 66 favorite albums for this (or any) blog ever again. Here is the 'lazy edition' of the second half of my Top 66(6) of 2012 list. This, by the way, is the final nail in 2012's coffin. This is me dotting the i's and crossing the inverted t's on what was the most shitty year ov my puny life. Personal life, handcuffs and all the other whiney bullshit aside, 2012 was an absolutely amazing year for music, fuck what you say. If I had the patience and time this list could have easily been twice as long and I still wouldnt have mentioned every good album that was spun in my pathetic one bedroom dumpster of an apartment during the last year. Comment this list if you'd like but honestly I dont give a fuck if you didn't think Kentucky was the shit... I may have spun 'The Chills' in its entirety much more than I did 'Kentucky' but honestly I listened to 'Bodies Under The Falls' like a professional fucking mad man.. Far too many times for me to count honestly during the last half of the past year and that was reason enough for me to give it the top spot. More vomits soon, hopefully...
