10) La Sanie des Siècles – Panégyrique de la Dégénérescence by PESTE NOIRE

73ace3127a364bd0cbd8b0605b0a9c5c.jpg

"Anyways. I've realized I've been obsessively spinning Peste Noire - La Sanie des Siècles - Panégyrique de la Dégénérescence as well. It's so much better that Folkfuck Folie." - @Life Sucks

"i dont think it's better than folkfuck follie. it's just different.
But i adore La Sanie des Siècles. Really great album, worthy of anyones time."
- @Koude Haat

"Folkfuck wasn't great. I don't mind La Sanie des Siècles when I'm in the mood, but there's just something about it that doesn't quite sit right. A cheap attempt to "buy" atmosphere with rough production perhaps." - @challenge_everything

"Solitude Aeturnus are my favorite American doom band along with Vitus. Through The Darkest Hour is essential stuff. Alone is brilliant too. Hell they've never put out a bad album." - @Oblivious Maximus

"Negative Plane is great, Et In Saecula Saeculorum was the best BM album released last year." -

5) Watching from a Distance by WARNING

a2441756527_10.jpg

"Listening to Watching From a Distance is soul devastating when you're down." - @Krow

"KoRn's first two albums have a hundred times the emotional depth and meaning that Warning's Watching from a Distance does." - @HamburgerBoy

"The floor tom on Watching from a Distance is thunderous." - @Oblivious Maximus

"Inb4 a bunch of fags put that whiny crybaby Warning album as their number one." - @Krow

"If doom metal is supposed to musically exemplify or indicate absolute despair, no album does this better than Warning - Watching from a Distance." - @Dak

"Watching From a Distance is pretty much a flawless album. One of the top 10 doom metal releases for me. It also paved the way for a different style of doom that we see in bands like Griftegard and Pallbearer. I listened to it fairly recently on a drive and it fucking hurts sometimes. Not too many albums can do that." - @Master_Yoda77

"Emotional bitches putting Watching From a Distance in their top ten metal albums makes me want to vomit." - @Krow

"It's a brilliant record, but I'm not exactly crazy over it so much that I put it over many other albums. If we did Top 50 lists, sure it would likely get included." - @CiG

"a guy i know did a three word RYM review of WATCHING FROM A DISTANCE that makes me laugh to this day: wanking and crying." - @no country for old wainds

"WFaD is not the best album of this year. It's the best album of this decade." - @Vegard Pompey

"Imagine being such an emotional, limp wristed European that you actually believe that." - @Krow

4) Epitome of Darkness by REPUGNANT

R-5828387-1403822528-2108.jpeg.jpg

"Repugnant's Epitome of Darkness is actually pretty cool. It's riffy old-school death metal but made in the 2000s." - @Phylactery

"I remember Epitome of Darkness dropping this year and I blasted it nonstop well into 2007. Good times." - @CiG

"Repugnant are definitely better than Necrovation, I reckon. That in no way discredits the awesomeness of Breed Deadness Blood; Epitome of Darkness is fucking hard to top in terms of contemporary OSDM." - @Slayed Necros
