Two Years Later
I'm a week late doing this because I totally forgot about it. It's been two years and week since I've joined the site (as this name.) I've been around since Feb 07 though. These are my favorite albums the site has gotten me into over my tenure. First ten are metal, last ten aren't. |
| 1 |  | Lost Horizon
A Flame To The Ground Beneath
I want to give Tyler Munro a huge hug for getting me into this band. Best thing he's done in the past two years imo lol. I heart this band. |
| 2 |  | Edge of Sanity
Crimson II
Heard the first Crimson in late 2007, and I was skeptical a bit about the sequel. Became blown away with this album. So much better than the original. Album that got me into harsher vocals too. |
| 3 |  | In Flames
Colony
I loved Embody the Invisible when it came out on Tony Hawk's Underground, but I wasn't a huge fan of buying music or listening to things not on the radio at the time. One of the greatest melodic records I've heard. |
| 4 |  | Amon Amarth
Once Sent From the Golden Hall |
| 5 |  | Blind Guardian
A Night At The Opera |
| 6 |  | Moonsorrow
V: Havitetty
Honestly I haven't listened to this in about two years, but it opened me up to so much more music, and for that I always have a place in my heart for this one. |
| 7 |  | Tarot
Suffer Our Pleasures |
| 8 |  | Kamelot
The Black Halo |
| 9 |  | Cynic
Traced in Air
I've come to really appreciate this over the past few months. |
| 10 |  | Opeth
Watershed
Four Opeth albums later, this is still my favorite. Still Life is really close to second though. |
| 11 |  | Mono
Hymn to the Immortal Wind
Thank you Adam Downer for reviewing this. It's easily the best album of 09, and my favorite post rock album period. |
| 12 |  | Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Slow Riot For New Zero Kanada |
| 13 |  | Bon Iver
For Emma, Forever Ago |
| 14 | | Diablo Swing Orchestra
The Butcher's Ballroom
Technically metal?? Yeah kinda. But it's so out there that I don't even put it in a genre. |
| 15 |  | Mutyumu
Ilya |
| 16 |  | Rome
Masse Mensch Material
Not thanking the review site for this one. I found this gem while browsing through the forums. |

It's Not Me, It's You!
yep, I've come to the conclusion that post rock is like my second favorite genre. I still have a lot to listen to, but I'm getting there. |
| 19 |  | Bat for Lashes
Two Suns |
| 20 |  | Porcupine Tree
In Absentia |
