| Best Of : 10 Metal Albums That Kick Ass
The metal world is damn vast. My mid-2011 top 10 selection.rYES, I RUDE/USELESS COMMENTS. So just don't bother... | | 1 |  | Animosity
Animal
Tell me about a band who deserted when the were finally getting right, very right. Jazz metal in its own way. | | 2 |  | Architects
Hollow Crown
A well-supported essay on the mechanics of anger, sadness and all around feeling of emptiness. Carter is
great at what he does, very honest and soulful in its very own way. Monolithic, massive
record. | | 3 |  | Between the Buried and Me
The Silent Circus
There's no need at add anything here. Camilla Rhodes forever. BTBAM will remain as gods even though
they're getting lost somewhere weird as of 2011. | | 4 |  | Bring Me the Horizon
Count Your Blessings
You'll throw tomatoes at me, but I persist and sign : this is a solid, brutal record. A little childish, perhaps, but
that's the emblematic deathcore album by excellence, in my opinion. | | 5 |  | Cave In
Until Your Heart Stops
The creativity here keeps me entertained after 13 years. It manages to get that weight and feel you want
without feeling overproduced. | | 6 |  | Cephalic Carnage
Anomalies
Here again, pretty much nothing to add. Insane ideas, themes and rendering.
Powerful, loud record. | | 7 |  | Embrace the End
Ley Lines
This album leaves me speechless. Creative solos, harsh vocals, everchanging riffs and patterns that just KILL. | | 8 |  | The Faceless
Planetary Duality
Metal at its coldest and most technical. That's almost too precise, too square. The Faceless is no man but a
MACHINE. Just a little less than Indricothere. | | 9 |  | Mastodon
Crack the Skye
Enormous, brooding, poetic and heavy. Very very balanced metal album. | | 10 |  | Stray From the Path
Make Your Own History
Their sophomore album is energy-filled as many metal albums are, but it's not your usual fix. Listening to it
is like crowd-surfing on fists. Too short an album, but a hell of a ride. It just sounds different. Great
musicianship all around. | |

05.28.11 | Not gonna lie, but there's some pretty diabolical stuff on this list. | RavenRock
05.28.11 | Where the fuck is Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, or Axel Rudi Pell? I like some of these choices, but you forgot some important choices here. | Alucard125
05.29.11 | I agree with 2, I love that album. | HectorLetberg
05.29.11 | @Detriment : damn right!
@Ravenrock : not of my time, man, haven't listened to much to that stuff cause it just aint my vibe. | InFiction
05.29.11 | 2, 3, 8 and 9 are all awesome. I also have to agree with you on 4 as well. Despite having shitty lyrics and, as you said, a childish nature, it's still pretty tight. | Duderino
05.29.11 | the grammar and albums included are lol. except 5 is dece. otherwise good list | YouthCat
05.29.11 | Some good picks on here. 2, 3 and 10 especially. Although, I like the weird BTBAM a lot better then anything off of Silent Circus. | AfterTheBreakdown
05.29.11 | 8 is amazing | dogmaster
05.30.11 | some real shit on this | Scoot
05.30.11 | 10 is good. 4 is unforgivable. | Scoot
05.30.11 | 8 has its moments. | PiratesWithHats
05.30.11 | I love all BTBAM, but I disagree with what you say. Its a natural progression of the band no different than any other great musical act. | AntsoftheSky
05.31.11 | 7 is a hidden gem. i don't know if those guys are even still together as a band but if they are heres to hoping they put out some new tunes soon. | Spec
06.06.11 | Good call on two. | AncientSpec1
06.06.11 | 1 fo sho | climactic
06.06.11 | ive never listened to them but isnt stray from the path melodic hardcore?
decent list besides BMTH...wtf bro | HectorLetberg
07.10.11 | climactic : nope. Some kind of 'positive hardcore'. Pretty hardcore sometimes :) | Acrosstheshield13
08.25.11 | this is a great fucking list. The Silent Circus is BTBAM's best record by far. | YetAnotherBrick
08.25.11 | 3 - not even close to BTBAM'S best
4 - wtf
5 - good, but there's tons of better early metalcore/mathcore you could've picked
6 - uh...okay
7 - what
8 - not metal at its most technical
9 - fine
10 - not metal | IrishJay91
08.25.11 | am i the only person who thinks camilla rhodes is like their worst song this list is three months
old..... | IsPerv
08.25.11 | 9 is the only one I've heard. | Uranium
08.25.11 | You cant win | Uranium
08.25.11 | has a badass scream | Uranium
08.25.11 | in the begninning |
