5.0 classic
Anberlin Cities
As I Lay Dying An Ocean Between Us
Attalus Into the Sea
Becoming The Archetype Celestial Completion
For Today Ekklesia
Impending Doom Nailed. Dead. Risen.
Norma Jean Bless the Martyr and Kiss the Child

4.5 superb
A Feast For Kings Hell On Earth
A Hill To Die Upon Holy Despair
Abated Mass of Flesh Brutal Death
Abated Mass of Flesh The Anatomy Of Impurity
Continues on from Brutal Death, but excels more in its brutality and musicianship. My favorite release from these
guys so far.
Adelaide Slugtrail
Agonal Death Defeated
Aletheian Dying Vine
Anberlin New Surrender
Anberlin Vital
Antestor The Forsaken
Antestor The Return of the Black Death
As Cities Burn Come Now Sleep
As I Lay Dying Frail Words Collapse
As I Lay Dying Shadows Are Security
August Burns Red Messengers
August Burns Red Constellations
August Burns Red Leveler
August Burns Red Rescue & Restore
August Burns Red expand on their sound just enough to make Rescue and Restore stand out among their previous releases. It's more melodic, sure, but at the same time provides a more emotionally engaging and cohesive release. My favorite album by these guys so far with Constellations slowly behind.
Austrian Death Machine Total Brutal
Beartooth Disgusting
Becoming The Archetype Dichotomy
Betraying the Martyrs The Hurt, the Divine, the Light
Blood Thirsty Sanguine River Absolution

Erasmus Memento Mori I: Outrecuidance
Everything in Slow Motion Phoenix
Everything in Slow Motion Laid Low
Evroklidon The Flames of Sodom
Extol Extol
Extol return with what could be considered a modern day Undeceived, and deliver exactly what they set out to accomplish. No wonder these guys are considered one of the best not only in Christian metal but in progressive death metal in general.

Horde Hellig Usvart
I Built The Cross Banish the Disconnect
While I loved their first album, the biggest problem I found was the fact that the production quality was very poor (that being because they're not signed yet). However, on this EP they got not only the production quality right, they mastered their sound. Great technical death metal and a great Christian metal release.
Immortal Souls Wintermetal
Impending Doom There Will Be Violence
Impending Doom Baptized in Filth
Impending Doom Death Will Reign
It's not a return to their death metal stuff (which, by this point, will probably never happen), but Impending Doom's new album is really heavy, really dark, and really fun to listen to. One of their best releases yet
Living Sacrifice Ghost Thief
It's nothing new, but that doesn't stop Ghost Thief from being another consistent and excellent release from the guys in Living Sacrifice.
Monotheist Unforsaken
Monotheist Genesis Of Perdition
Mortification Scrolls of the Megilloth
Narnia Awakening
Necroblation Ablation Of Death
Norma Jean O' God, the Aftermath
Norma Jean Wrongdoers
Norma Jean's best album in years. Not since O God The Aftermath has this band managed to retain the aggressive nature of their sound. This isn't a return to their mathcore roots, but it's definitely a quality hardcore album that crushes their previous releases by a long shot. A great return to form.
Oh, Sleeper Children of Fire
Pantokrator Incarnate
Prepared Like a Bride Overcomer
Red (USA) End of Silence
Red (USA) Innocence and Instinct
Red (USA) Of Beauty and Rage
Revulsed Infernal Atrocity
Rival Choir Struggle Well
Saving Grace The Urgency
Definitely one of the better metalcore albums I've listened to. It's heavy, perfectly paced, and very straightforward in its message. Even if you don't like metalcore, this is one you should give a try.
Separatist Closure
Separatist Motionless
Silent Planet The Night God Slept
Still Remains Of Love and Lunacy
Stryper Fallen
Substructure Monolith
Syringe Former Life Departure
The Autumn League Concept of Irony
The Burial In The Taking Of Flesh
I enjoyed their previous record "Lights and Perfection" but here The Burial prove themselves as a great technical metal band, combining so many elements together to create an absolute monster of an album. Definitely a band that I will be keeping my eye on in the future.
The Chariot Long Live
The Chariot One Wing
The Crimson Armada Guardians
The Devil Wears Prada With Roots Above and Branches Below
The Devil Wears Prada Dead Throne
The Devil Wears Prada 8:18
TDWP has definitely grown since their inception, despising their Rise Records sound and opting for a more mature metalcore sound. And 8:18 is no different; it continues the route TDWP took on Dead Throne and create an excellent album showing their progress from despised Risecore to a competent metal band.
The Devil Wears Prada Transit Blues

Caleb Shomo's newest project is a hard-hitting, honest, and heavy release that shows promise. Don't let his involvement in Attack Attack! keep you from checking this beast out. 4/5

For Today Fight the Silence
What a disappointment. Fight The Silence shows For Today at their weakest, showing they've opted for overusing bass drop breakdowns instead of engaging music to help back up their message. Whatever passion you felt on previous releases is completely gone, at least where the music stands. Hopefully next time will be better.

2.0 poor
