To hear essentials for everyone:
Elder - Dead Roots Stirring - Hands down some of the better doom I've heard in a while. It gets really groovy, moody and gritty and is just an all around amazing album. A lot of Wizard and Sleep sounding stuff going, but the sound is more diverse than that.
Wolvhammer - The Obsidian Plains - Darkthrone would be proud and I am too. God fucking damnit this album kills. Black, punk and thrash all thrown together with a really gruff edge.
Assaulter - Boundless! - I checked out this album purely because it was the only blackened thrash album I'd ever seen with an exclamation point, but I was immediately drawn by their sound. It's not going to kill you with its awesomeness, but when you're in the mood, this is a great fucking album.

I didn't like Blue Slide better than Best Day Ever. Don't know what section 80 is and I don't listen to Wale besides that single he had out. Not sure about Yelawolf yet.
