Somewhat of a 'best of 2011' special tonight to see out the year. I say "somewhat" because 2 hours is never going to be enough to cover all stand-out releases of 2011. After browsing through this year's playlists and compiling a shortlist, I had to cut over half...

1. 16Volt - Beating Dead Horses
2. Synthetic Minister - Dose For Reality
3. Left Spine Down - Troubleshoot
4. UCNX - Overgrowth
5. Klutæ - Fuck You
6. Pail - Dignity Corrosion
7. Terrolokaust - Nihilismo Moral
8. Siva Six - Serpent Whore
9. Necro Facility - Cuts
…

For the first time, I'm not posting my end-of-year roundups in full here. Each artist (or album in this case) is tagged where possible, but the full writeup is on my website (linked).

Full writeup here: http://www.amodelofcontrol.com/reviews/?pg=2011missed

Every year - without fail - there are artists, albums, songs that I miss from my end-of-year lists for one reason or another. This year, the main reason some missed out was that there was so much music to consider. I bought loads, heard a bit more, and saw absolutely loads of gigs. And, so it turns out, I missed a few artists too, making some late discoveries. So this list is about those that I missed.

Featuring (in alphabetical order): 16Volt, Autodafeh, Death Grips, Factory Floor, Je$us Loves Amerika, The Pain Machinery, PJ Harvey, Rammstein, Waxaw, Wolves in the Throne Room
