| 4.0 excellent |
| 3776 Saijiki |
| An absolute insane barrage of pop sounds that works weirdly well. One of the best pop albums of 2019 without a doubt |
| Abigail Williams Walk Beyond The Dark |
| AFI The Art of Drowning |
| Alcest Spiritual Instinct |
| Alice Cooper Killer |
| Alice in Chains Rainier Fog |
| Alice In Chains are one of the few bands that can evolve while maintaining their signature sound without making it sound overused or underwhelming. Rainier Fog is a perfect example of a band working well together to make an album that isn't revolutionary, but is still a very enjoyable listen. |
| Asian Kung-Fu Generation Sol-fa |
| Bathory Nordland I |
| Certainly doesn't stack up to Hammerheart, but Quorthon still manages to deliver with this album. There are some very good tracks on here. |

| Cult of Luna Somewhere Along the Highway |
| Darkthrone Arctic Thunder |
| Darkthrone Old Star |
| Dead Congregation Graves of the Archangels |
| Death Grips The Powers That B - Part II: Jenny Death |
| Not a huge Death Grips fan anymore, but this album exhibits everything that makes them innovative. |

| Eminem The Slim Shady LP |

| Enslaved Frost |
| Ensnared Dysangelium |
| An excellent and well rounded DM album, accompanied by some creepy interludes that fit right in with the atmosphere. |
| Falkenbach ...Magni Blandinn Ok Megintiri... |
| Truly epic album. The folk element is a great addition and as always viking metal/themes is home run. |
| Filter Title Of Record |
| Firelink The Inveterate Fire |
| Florence and the Machine High as Hope |
| Yes, it's really that good. I haven't really listened to much of this band but this album is just beautiful. |
| Flotsam and Jetsam My God |
| Ghost (SWE) Prequelle |
| Ghost have yet again delivered another amazing album! The performances on this album are top notch. Can't wait to see where this band keeps going. |

| Hamferd Támsins likam |
| Hatebreed Satisfaction Is The Death Of Desire |
| High on Fire Electric Messiah |
| Ice-T O.G. Original Gangster |
| Immortal Northern Chaos Gods |
| My AOTY so far. Everything good about Immortal is present on this record. |
| John Denver Rocky Mountain High |
| Kacey Musgraves Golden Hour |
| Avoids falling into the disastrous pit of mainstream country writing by creating a layered, more atmospheric approach to country music. Kudos to Kacey for not trying to cram hip hop into her choruses either. |
| Killing Joke Night Time |
| King Diamond Abigail |
| King Diamond Fatal Portrait |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Infest the Rats' Nest |
| Led Zeppelin Presence |
| Lindemann F And M |
| Lvcifyre Svn Eater |
| Mariya Takeuchi Variety |
| Masayoshi Takanaka An Insatiable High |
| Mayhem Grand Declaration of War |
People on this site really don't pay attention to Mayhem after first LP. What a shame.
This release demonstrates the exceptional talent of the band and the lyrical prowess of Maniac. |
| Mayhem Daemon |
| Mercyful Fate Melissa |
| Metallica Ride The Lightning |
| Metallica ...And Justice For All |
| A classic thrash record, but the production makes some of the songs on the back half of the album seem really boring. |
| Mgla Age of Excuse |
| Midnight Satanic Royalty |
| Molly Hatchet Molly Hatchet |
| Very underrated southern rock band. Been listening to Hatchet for some years and it's incredible how they rarely get brought up. Anyway, their debut album is a great show of awesome vocals and fantastic guitar work. |
| Molly Hatchet Flirtin' With Disaster |
| Mudvayne L.D. 50 |
| Myrkur Mareridt |
| New Order Power, Corruption and Lies |
| Nightbringer Ego Dominus Tuus |
| Nine Inch Nails With Teeth |
| Nine Inch Nails Year Zero |
| The more you listen, the more you realize that this is one of NIN's finest works. And all the art that accompanied the release was also fantastic. |
| Nine Inch Nails Bad Witch |
| Exactly what I needed from NIN. Certainly brings some Quake soundtrack sounds into it as well. NIN is operating at peak performance right now. |
| Norma Jean All Hail |
| Outlaws Outlaws |
| Panopticon Kentucky |
| Pantera Cowboys from Hell |
| Pantera Vulgar Display of Power |
| While Pantera moves into a heavier sound, they deliver an album that throws all the right hooks. |

| Skeletonwitch Devouring Radiant Light |
| Slayer South Of Heaven |
| Sleep Dopesmoker |
| Slipknot We Are Not Your Kind |
| Slipknot come back hard with an excellent return-to-form following the Gray Chapter. With a mix of heavy parts and experimentation, the album stays interesting the entire time despite the unneeded interludes. |
| Solitude Aeturnus Into The Depths Of Sorrow |
| Sonic Youth Dirty |
| Suffocation Breeding the Spawn |
| Suicidal Tendencies Freedumb |
| Suicidal Tendencies sound polished and confident with "Freedumb". |
| Sum 41 Does This Look Infected? |
| Sum 41 started to dabble in the heavier side of things with this record, resulting in a great mash up of catchy pop punk and fantastic riffs. |
| Summoning Stronghold |
| Superjoint Use Once and Destroy |
| System of a Down Steal This Album! |
| The 1975 The 1975 |
| The Beach Boys Surf's Up |
| The Black Angels Passover |
| The Cure Pornography |
| The Police Zenyatta Mondatta |
| The Starting Line Say It Like You Mean It |
| One of the strongest pop-punk releases of the 90s imo. It's a shame this album goes really under the radar because the writing is fantastic and the songs are catchy as hell without being annoying. |
| Thin Lizzy Bad Reputation |
| Third Eye Blind Third Eye Blind |
| Warmoon Lord Burning Banners of the Funereal War |
| White Ward Love Exchange Failure |
| Winterfylleth The Hallowing Of Heirdom |
| Yellow Magic Orchestra Naughty Boys |
| 3.0 good |
| Anal Cunt Everyone Should Be Killed |
| Beck Golden Feelings |
There's enough here to make this enjoyable but be warned; unless you're an ultra Beck fan, you
will not feel the same. |

| Cannabis Corpse The Weeding |
| Charli XCX Number 1 Angel |
| Chisato Moritaka Kokon Touzai |
| Coldworld Nostalgia |

| The slow songs suck, but the heavier tracks are great. It's a shame it couldn't be more consistent but it's still an enjoyable listen overall. |

| I Set My Friends On Fire You Can't Spell Slaughter Without Laughter |

| Jonathan Davis Black Labyrinth |
| Kanye West ye |
| All Kanye politics/antics aside this is actually a solid release. This album definitely gets a boost from some beautiful choruses. |
| KISS Unmasked |
| Korn See You on the Other Side |
| Korn Korn III: Remember Who You Are |
| Macintosh Plus Floral Shoppe |
| Objectively speaking, this album is just above average. Personally, I go back to this a lot because it's an enjoyable listen and brings the A E S T H E T I C |
| Marduk Viktoria |
| They've made way better before, but I enjoyed this release. Not sure how much I'll go back to it though. |
| Mest Photographs |
| Though songs like "Kiss Me, Kill Me" shine through as one of Mest's best songs to date, a handful of flat-out terrible slow songs stop this album from being great; Mest more or less begins a hard decline after this album as well. |
| Metallica Reload |
| Metallica Load |
| While this album doesn't deliver what Master of Puppets does, Metallica show they can write tasty white trash riffs that will keep you jamming this album. |
| Metallica Hardwired...To Self-Destruct |
| Not a bad album by any means, but it gets pretty damn boring. Death Magnetic is far superior imo. |
| Molly Hatchet Lightning Strikes Twice |
| Molly Hatchet Silent Reign Of Heroes |
| Momoko Kikuchi Adventure |
| NONE Life Has Gone On Long Enough |
Some great moments on this album, but there's at least 20 minutes on the back half of low effort
crying and moaning. The Burzum cover at the end is a great addition. |
| Nucleus (USA-IL) Sentient |
| Radiohead OK Computer |
| Easily one of the most overrated albums ever. Definitely wouldn't call it bad but the songs on here just aren't special. |
| Rush Vapor Trails |
Shows Rush's musical prowess, but this release in particular seems to just drag on as each song
goes by. It also lacks any truly stand-out tunes.
Those things being said, this album is far from average. |
| Rush Caress Of Steel |
| Scars on Broadway Dictator |
| The fact this has a lower average than Chinese Democracy and other similar god-awful albums makes me think everyone on this website is braindead |
| Sex Pistols Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols |
| Slayer Divine Intervention |
| Slipknot All Hope Is Gone |
| Smash Mouth Astro Lounge |
| Suffocation Blood Oath |
| Suffocation …Of the Dark Light |
| The 1975 IV |
| The Promise Ring Wood/Water |
| You can tell they were running out of gas on this. Still has some songs fun to go back and listen to. |
| Type O Negative The Origin Of The Feces |
| Ved Buens Ende Written In Waters |
| Great guitar parts and creative overall, but nothing on this album would lead me to classify it as a classic. |
