| My AOTY 2021 |
| 1 |  | Wolves in the Throne Room
Primordial Arcana
Album did not disappoint me even as the biggest fan of the band. They brought a interesting gothic note to their black metal without losing heaviness. |
| 2 |  | Der Weg Einer Freiheit
Noktvrn
Grows on me until it reaches the second place. So well done und rounded up record. |
| 3 |  | Plebeian Grandstand
Rien ne suffit
This record is pure excitement and the most difficult listen you could imagine. Love it for that. It is like reading a unpredictable horror story. You never know what's next. Way too much for ((black) metal traditionalists for sure. |
| 4 |  | Portrayal of Guilt
Christfucker
I am a big fan of this band since their debut EP. Christfucker left their screamo edge behind towards more evil, slow and mighty music. I love the spirit of this record. It suprisingly slays their whole excellent back catalogue. |
| 5 |  | Mol
Diorama
Wonderful polished version of post black metal whatever. The catchyness of the songwriting is insane. |
| 6 |  | First Fragment
Gloire Eternelle
Sick record. The most impressive one when it comes to musicianship and craftsmanship. You can get tired because of its length but you don't have to. Just follow every note from beginning to the end and just have fun discovering new things all the time. |
| 7 |  | Ethereal Shroud
Trisagion
Sadly the last Ethereal Shroud record. Strong atmosphere to dive deep into here. |
| 8 |  | Full of Hell
Garden of Burning Apparitions
They left their metal path with this one and sound like f*ck up version of Converge. This record destroys everything in a few minutes. |
| 9 |  | Lingua Ignota
SINNER GET READY
Strong and emotional record you can cry and lose your nerves to. One of my favorite female artist. You hear dedication in every note here. |
| 10 |  | Turnstile
Glow On
High quality hardcore for the masses. Their best. Love it. |
