Black Sabbath 13 - Loved it!
Attika 7 - Very cool hard rock-ish music
Geri X - She is kind of a dark melodic pop-ish, I hate calling it pop since I hate pop music.
Judas Priest - Redeemer of Souls; oddly enough they (like Black Sabbath) still have it
Motorhead - Bad Magic - Great album, super surprised by the "Sympathy for the Devil" cover. Really, really good. RIP Lemmy.
Sons of HIppies - indie band, really, really awesome psychedelic rock. They've since disbanded.

...and of course Whores. I LOVE Whores. (and pretty much really like whores in general) and patiently awaiting the new album.

Wow, had no idea they were still going. I remember restarting their song Unromance over and over one time, laughing my ass off at the drum intro. Such a nice guy, but a woefully terrible drummer.

I've just gotten into them this past year. Known of them for a while but never got it. Also, think they've a new drummer since then. I know they changed bassist and guitarist a while back too (their new band "Body Hound" is fantastic! Probably even better than Rolo imo).

02. Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp A Butterfly
03. Titus Andronicus - The Most Lamentable Tragedy
04. William Basinski - The Deluge
05. Bell Witch - Four Phantoms
06. Gnaw Their Tongues - Abyss of Longing Throats
07. Sunn O))) - Kannon
08. Desaparecidos - Payola
09. Punch Brothers - The Phosphorescent Blues

A lot of stuff on that list that I've never heard of. Will check some of them out. Punch Brothers and Gnaw Their Tongues intrigue me name-wise especially. That Sufjan Stevens record however, is really good. A friend of mine had it as his fave last year and I've been listening quite a bit too it since then.

1. Abyss by Chelsea Wolfe (Dragged Out)
2. The Color Before the Sun by Coheed & Cambria (The Audience)
3. The Deal by Sumac (Blight’s End Angel)
4. Jenny Death by Death Grips (Pss Pss)
5. No Cities to Love by Sleater-Kinney (A New Wave)
6. To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamarr (Momma)
7. Lore by Elder (Spirit At Aphelion)
8. Four Phantoms by Bell Witch (Suffocation, A Drowning: II - Somniloquy (The Distance of Forever)
9. A Fragile Geography by Rafael Anton Irisarri (Empire Systems)
10. The Direction of Last Things by Intronaut (Digital Gerrymandering)

Definitely check out his other albums! Seven Swans sounds a lot like that one, acoustic, melancholy, and I love it too. Punch Brothers is in the same vein as Sufjan Stevens, folk music pushing the boundary. They call themselves a progressive bluegrass band which as far as I can tell means they've mixed bluegrass with classical and jazz. The mandolin player Chris Thile is legitimately one of the best musicians in the world... I'm not just saying that, I mean, he's collaborated with Yo Yo Ma, played Carnegie Hall, has reinterpreted the Bach canon for mandolin, etc.

And Gnaw Their Tongues is a black metal project from Denmark that makes very vile, noisy songs with lots of screaming and samples of church music... terrifying! Like, if I wanted to make a haunted house that would traumatize kids for the rest of their lives, I'd have that album blaring and strobe lights and zombies everywhere LOL

Wait wtf Gnaw Their Tongues had a new album?!

Last year was too overflowed with good music I missed stuff

Despite the above list, I don't know most of my favourite albums of 2015 exist yet. I'm sure of it.
