Comprising veterans of the Finnish underground, Cadaveric Incubator's history stretches back to 2004. While the band would deliver a demo and three-way split CD the next year, they broke up in 2007, only to re-form in 2014 with a renewed lineup and a renewed purpose: bury the listener under miles of garbage and grime, sewage and sickness.

As I've mentioned before one of the benefits of being involved with The Lair of Filth is forming ties and friendships with labels / bands and for me this has most definitely been the case with SS from Cyclopean Eye Productions who I've known for a number of years.

With Ally's list performing so well last year it was obvious I should ask him to compile another Top 25 for 2020. Whilst you may not recognise his name I can think of no one who supports the underground more through music purchases and gig attendance that is second to none.

With two previous posts from PK for The Lair of Filth (an interview with myself in 2015 + a guest Top 10 listing last year) remaining two of the site's most successful articles I was never in any doubt that I'd ask PK to submit another Top 10 for 2020.

Trevor Proctor's Top 25 Albums of 2020.

 

Year end lists aren't for everyone, as I've mentioned previously some love them and others hate them but whether you like them or not there's no doubt they are a useful way of hearing new music and maybe catching up on releases you've missed during the year.

Trevor Proctor's Top 25 Singles, EPs, Splits and Demos of 2020.

 

Thankfully, despite the obvious hardships associated with 2020, our underground has continued to survive during the year. 

Although gigs and tours were cancelled one after the other we have still been spoilt for choice when it comes to underground music. Having said that, harder than usual times have affected labels and artists alike, so please feel free to follow any red links in this article where you will be able to support either the artist or label.
