Hi. Disclaimer: List won't contain Sunbather.
1Gorguts
Colored Sands


Progressive DM

What can I say? Not for the faint-hearted. The Title Track + The Battle of Chamdo is one of the most iconic pieces of music of the century, so far (in my wicked mind).
2Queens of the Stone Age
...Like Clockwork


Alt Rock

The "old young me" would put this at #1. Second fave QOTSA and a real grower.
3Daft Punk
Random Access Memories


Electronic

The Summer jam that became the jam of all Summers.
4Altar of Plagues
Teethed Glory and Injury


Post BM

"PUSH and RELEASE" became one of my morning exercises for quite a time. Although its avant-garde nature may push some of you out of this, there's definitely a new bar setting with this work of art.
5The Dillinger Escape Plan
One of Us Is the Killer


Mathcore

The pack of two insane openers got iconic (Prancer+When I lost my Bet) and engage you in a vicious listen, from band that made no less than superb albums.
6Tribulation
The Formulas of Death


Goth prog DM

1st step on transforming their sound, the mixing of prog psychedelic with a somewhat osdm and bm vibe is just top notch. They've completely excelled this time and went right up my alley.
7Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds
Push The Sky Away


Postpunk

Intimate and personal listen as with all Cave's.
8Cara Neir
Portals To A Better, Dead World


Blackened HXC

Relentless and diverse from screamo background, to HXC, to BM, to post as in its two final tracks...amazing unique band.

Atmo BM

This man is a genius. Probably his most forgettable output, but I dig everything this project offered.
21All Them Witches
Lightning at the Door


Stoner Rock, Post Rock

I dig this bluesy vibe. A very atmospheric piece.
22Agnes Obel
Aventine


Folk

Probably my fave Agnes'.
23Oathbreaker
Eros|Anteros


PostHXC, BM
24Power Trip
Manifest Decimation


HXC Thrash Crossover

What a cool band. RIP Riley Gale.
25Cult of Luna
Vertikal


Post Metal

Very experimental, electronic driven CoL, albeit heavy still manages to create these beautiful melodies and build ups.
26Inter Arma
Sky Burial


Post Metal, SludgeBM

Although they are always very creative, they kept their formula albumwise - DoomSludge - BM - PinkFloyd - and then rougher again m/ I wonder if this reached Roger Waters somehow!
27Primitive Man
Scorn


Doom Sludge

This is their debut and their most versatile piece to date. Still BLEAK. MALEVOLENT. DOOM
28Darkthrone
The Underground Resistance


Black Metal

Love the variation of the tracks here. Definitely the best one from their late career and, ultimately, an extremely rockish fun album.
29Spectral Lore and Mare Cognitum
Sol


Atmo BM

The track 'Sol Ouroboros' is too blissful.
30Mammoth Grinder
Underworlds


DeathSludge

This slays! I'd say its thrash metal - hardcore crossover, but then all the crusty dm and sludgy features gives another perspective.
31Doomriders
Grand Blood


Sludgecore

Nate Newton's (Converge's bass dude) sludgecore project on vocals and guitar. Awesome riffing and vocals.
32Woodkid
The Golden Age


Folk, Alt Rock
33Baleia
Quebra Azul


Psychedelic Post Rock

Hailing from Brazil. This listen is very enjoyable , although its indie nature, it offers some welcome variety on vocals (fem and male) and compositions that overcomes a somewhat washed psych vibe.
34The Psyke Project
Guillotine


HXC, Sludge
35Anciients
Heart of Oak


Prog DM
36Nero di Marte

Black Metal, Post Metal, Hardcore

Such a dark feel but beautiful chord progressions. Unique brand of black and death, sprinkled with prog and gazey soundscapes all around. 4.5 material.

I've grown my taste for these guys. What a comeback.
