| The Black Dahlia Murder Ranked
I changed my mind, I'm going to rank TBDMs albums. I will also include what I think are the top tracks and the best overall riff from each album. Boy, do they have a lot of good riffs. | | 1 |  | The Black Dahlia Murder
Nocturnal
Their magnum opus. Simple as that.
Best Riff: What a Horrible Night to Have a Curse
Top 5 Tracks:
What a Horrible Night to Have a Curse
Everything Went Black
Nocturnal
Deathmask Divine
Climactic Degradation | | 2 |  | The Black Dahlia Murder
Miasma
This is the second lowest rated album of their discography on this site? How can you guys get it so wrong? Every song absolutely rapes. Miasma is their most 'fun' and creative album. I maintain that the main riff of 'I'm Charming' is the best riff they ever wrote. Fight me over it in the comments.
Best Riff (Of this album and entire discography too IMO): I'm Charming
Top 5 Tracks:
Statutory Ape
Built For Sin + I'm Charming (package deal)
A Vulgar Picture
Novelty Crosses
Miasma | | 3 |  | The Black Dahlia Murder
Ritual
Their most focused and consistent album.
Best Riff: Malenchantments of the Necrosphere
Top 5 Tracks:
A Shrine to Madness
Moonlight Equilibrium
On Stirring Seas of Salted Blood
Carbonized in Cruciform
Malenchantments of the Necrosphere | | 4 |  | The Black Dahlia Murder
Unhallowed
A very solid debut. Riffs for days.
Best Riff: Elder Misanthropy
Top 5 Tracks:
Funeral Thirst
Elder Misanthropy
Contagion
The Blackest Incarnation
Closed Casket Requiem | | 5 |  | The Black Dahlia Murder
Deflorate
Their most inconsistent and polarising album. Some of their best and their weakest songs are on this album.
Best Riff: Necropolis
Top 5 Tracks:
Necropolis
A Selection Unnatural
Denounced, Disgraced
Throne of Lunacy
I WILL RETURN! | | 6 |  | The Black Dahlia Murder
Everblack
The beginning of a new era of sorts. Slower, more 'mature' sounding songs. Not as much of a fan of their work from this album onwards. Good album though.
Best Riff: Into the Everblack
Top 5 Tracks:
Into the Everblack
In Hell is Where She Waits For Me
Goat of Departure
Raped in Hatred by Vines of Thorn
Phantom Limb Masturbation | | 7 |  | The Black Dahlia Murder
Nightbringers
A really solid album. But to be honest, I haven't really listened to it that much, again I'm not really that enamoured with everything post Everblack.
Best Riff: Nightbringers
Top 5 Tracks:
Widowmaker
Matriarch
Nightbringers
Jars
Kings of the Nightworld | | 8 |  | The Black Dahlia Murder
Abysmal
Not a bad album at all, but nothing really makes me go 'whoah'. It's just ok.
Best Riff: ???
Top 5 Tracks:
Receipt
Vlad, Son of the Dragon
Threat Level No.3
Stygiophobic
Asylum | |

11.08.18 | I've only heard a couple songs off ritual and all of nocturnal... should i get further into these guys? | G0atC0re
11.08.18 | Yeah, for sure. If you like some of their songs or albums, you'll most likely like them all. Start with Miasma and Unhallowed. | veninblazer
11.08.18 | Thanks, I'll try them out once my Spotify stops glitching out and lets me actually search...it's been a few days. | WoodeeX
11.08.18 | damn 7's kinda low.. | CygnusX1
11.08.18 | I would switch 2 and 4 personally, but you nailed it. Their new stuff isn't bad but it's not as great as their old stuff.
Also I Will Return has got to have the sickest riff on Deflorate | WretchedCacophony
11.08.18 | "I've only heard a couple songs off ritual and all of nocturnal... should i get further into these guys?"
no just listen to Morbid Angel, Dissection, Cannibal Corpse, Death, At the Gates ... the bands these guys want to be | pjquinones747
11.08.18 | They're all so good it's really hard to go wrong. | mrdogthrow
11.08.18 | Switch 7 and 5 and I can agree
But yes as long as Nocturnal is always 1 no TBDM list is wrong | bloc
11.08.18 | Everything is 1 | Nazzadan
11.08.18 | Nightbringers is their worst by quite a margin imo but fine ranking other than that | veninblazer
11.08.18 | @WretchedCacophony: The only band on that list I'm a huge fan of is At the Gates. First three are decent enough but get old quick, and I haven't listened to enough Death to say.
I will say I liked Strnad's appearance on the latest Inferi though, Revenant is a great album. | G0atC0re
11.09.18 | @CygnusX1 yeah, I actually thought about having Unhallowed much higher myself. You definitely could switch them. But Miasma is my personal favourite. I Will Return is definitely a top 3 song of their entire discography. | G0atC0re
11.09.18 | @Ninjahague Nah, 5 has I Will Return. Which is better than any song on 7. |
