The Gojira album is from 2005 ... ;-)

 

[MikeEnRegalia]

They list Enslaved ... but where's Ihsahn? The Adversary is better than Ruun IMHO.

 

[Mort Divine]

Ashes Against The Grain needs to be 10 spots up.

Lamb of God - 'Sacrament'

lol

a lot of good albums are missing... So they can go and kiss somebody's ass...

 

[cookiecutter]

Not as bad as I thought it would be. Good to see Nachtmystium so high. Instinct: Decay is a fantastic album.

 

[MikeEnRegalia]

Several albums are missing:

Devin Townsend - Synchestra
Kayo Dot - Dowsing Anemone With Copper Tongue
Canvas Solaris - Penumbra Diffuse
Textures - Drawing Circles
Tool - 10,000 Days

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

Maiden at # 20 and no Motorhead???

 

[Orfanos]

HEY BABE YOU HAD A BAD DAY OR SOMETHING

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Lots of good albums, but fucked up order IMO. I love Converge but no way they have the third best album of the year. Mogwai should be top 10 atleast, its amazing.

 

[~Neurotica]

HEY BABE YOU HAD A BAD DAY OR SOMETHING

Nope. My day was great. You don't have to take it personally again, paddy

 

[Zephyrus]

No Zyklon, no Anaal Nathrakh. That's a shame.

 

[metal paddy]

Nope. My day was great. You don't have to take it personally again, paddy

OK babe I am chilled I am cool as cool

 

[Mort Divine]

NO BRUV THATS ABOUT RIGHT TO ME DUDE

I'm something of an Agalloch fanboy, so you know how that works out.

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Mastodon top?!?! They're really pissing me off. Amon Amarth definatly needs to be there.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

They need to listen to more.

 

[cookiecutter]

They have to appeal to their audience with these lists, it has little to do with what is actually good. It appears they are mostly aiming for the proggy/black metal people.
