Best Metal albums of 2017
I listened to and rated 225 Metal and Hard Rock albums and EPs in 2017 (ignoring some of the more popular ones such as Kreator, Accept, Arch Enemy, Suffocation, Cavalera Conspiracy). I ended up with 44 albums that I really liked and they are listed here in alphabetical order. Out of these my Top 10 would look like this:
1 Lunar Shadow - Far From Light,
2 Vulture - The Guillotine,
3 Pagan Altar - Room Of Shadows,
4 The Ruins Of Beverast - Exuvia,
5 Pillorian - Obsidian Arc,
6 Portrait - Burn The World,
7 Attic - Sanctimonious,
8 Havukruunu - Kelle Surut Soi,
9 Spirit Adrift - Curse Of Conception,
10 Spectral Voice - Eroded Corridors Of Unbeing.
