Best of 2009, Part 1

Show Notes

Another year has come to a close, and damn, what an unbelievable year for extreme metal! Since there were so many great albums to sift through, we decided to break it up into two episodes that we'd run back to back-- long enough to fill most holiday commutes (at nearly 3 hours) and timeless enough to act as a mix tape of how truly rad 2009 was for metal!
