Top 50 of 2017

[NorseBlood]

I'm glad that Orden Ogan Gunmen made your list as that is one of my top albums of all time. These guys simply continue to get better and better.

Ahhhh I forgot about Elder...the new disc was very good

Here's some other ones that didn't make anyones lists that I liked

Edge of Haze - Deluge - Young Finnish band, amazingly melodic metally prog (proggy metal?)
Kadinja - Ascendancy - French tech metal band. I liked this the best of all the tech metal this year, more than Persefone, which was awesome.
Disperse - Forward - Polish tech melodic metal (whatever that means) They are just amazing
Brother Ape - Karma
Anthriel Transcendence (someone else may have mentioned this one)
Xanthochroid - Of Erthe... - No idea what genre this is, but it was pretty sweeping
The Ralph - Enter Escape - From Serbia I think This thing blew me away. Just rocking pop metal.... yowza
Pentakill - Grasp of the Undying - Video Game metal, with Jorne Lande, and Noora (battle beast) on vocals. Tear of the Goddess is amazing
Odd Logic - Effigy
Finally, Nightflight Orchestra - Amber Galactic - From everywhere, with Bjorn (Speed) on clean vocals. Just a great hard rock album

Love reading these threads to find what I've been missing. That album by Elder is amazing!

It really is. My #1 stoner record of the year.

Ooh, didn't realize there was a new Pentakill album. Don't really pay much attention to League Of Legends, but I had expected the last one to be a one-off.
