Slough Feg - Ape Uprising (entertaining, but I liked Hardworlder better)
The Devil's Blood - Come, Reap EP (great, but not as insanely great as the demo, or 7'')

How is that new Beherit? Worth getting? I like the first records.

for me 2009 hasn't brought out the real masterpieces so far - I guess CANDLEMASS - Death Magic Doom is the best among them, HEAVEN & HELL - The Devil You Know and POWERWOLF - Bible of the Beast are quite decent.
@Noisenik: I also think the new KREATOR is not so bad - but expect the Hordes of Trveness to tar and feather you soon for only mentioning it!

Sten, if you like Drawing Down The Moon, you will surely need this. Of course, you will have to wait for vinyl version. Pretty good IMHO.

As a Cold Lake advocate I have nothing to fear, believe me.

Per-Ola, what has disappointed you on that one? The fact that they're still not going to 80's or they're worse than on EoG? IMO, HoC is at least a class higher than EoG.
