| 10 Years Minus the Machine | 3.5 |
| 10 Years Killing All That Holds You | 3.5 |
| 10 Years From Birth to Burial | 3.5 |
| It's solid, but something's missing |
| 10 Years (How to Live) As Ghosts | 4.0 |
| Their best since The Autumn Effect. Wantland's return, Rasckulinecz's production, and what might be Jesse's best vocal performance to date, (how to live) As Ghosts not only marks a return to form for 10 Years, but a new chapter for the band that contains a very bright future. |
| 10 Years Violent Allies | 2.0 |
| This album is proof on why Howard Benson is an absolute shit stain in the music industry. |
| A Perfect Circle Thirteenth Step | 4.0 |
| A Perfect Circle Eat the Elephant | 4.5 |
| looks like somebody went through mommy's makeup again |
| A Slow Descent Dance With Me Upon His Secret Ocean | 3.5 |
| A Slow Descent Encased in Ice and Sealed in Snow | 4.0 |
| Act of Denial Negative | 4.0 |
definitely more reminiscent of Soilwork's pre-Figure Number Five era
for those thinking that Soilwork have gone too soft, this record is for you |
| Adele 25 | 2.5 |
| pretty generic, even for Adele's standards. |
| Adept Sleepless | 3.0 |
| nothing really new here, but the vocalist is pretty good. |
| Agalloch The Mantle | 3.5 |
| Agent Fresco Destrier | 4.0 |
| Alcest Écailles De Lune | 3.5 |
| Alcest Kodama | 4.0 |
| Alcest Spiritual Instinct | 4.0 |
| Alexandre Desplat Godzilla | 4.0 |

| All Human Teenagers, You Don't Have to Die | 4.5 |
| All That Remains The Fall of Ideals | 4.0 |
| All That Remains The Order of Things | 1.0 |
| All That Remains Madness | 2.0 |
"'Madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting something to change.'
Apparently, All That Remains didn't get the memo."
Snide, considering you do the same thing with your music, I don't think you got it either |
| All That Remains This Darkened Heart | 3.5 |
| All That Remains Victim of the New Disease | 3.0 |
| Allegaeon Elements of the Infinite | 4.0 |
| Allegaeon Damnum | 5.0 |
| Allegaeon Apoptosis | 4.0 |
| Alter Bridge Pawns and Kings | 3.0 |
| Alter Bridge Fortress | 4.5 |
| Totally worth your time. Just an overall great album. |
| Alter Bridge Blackbird | 4.5 |
| Alter Bridge AB III | 4.0 |
| Alter Bridge One Day Remains | 2.5 |
| Alter Bridge The Last Hero | 3.5 |
| typical Alter Bridge, though it still manages to contain some great material |
| Alter Bridge Walk The Sky | 3.5 |
| it's just more Alter Bridge, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but they really need to start tweaking their sound a bit more and get a different producer if they want to stay relevant. |
| Amaranthe Helix | 2.5 |
| I've always wondered why people found this band so average, now I know |
| Amon Amarth Twilight of the Thunder God | 4.0 |
| Amon Amarth Jomsviking | 2.5 |
| Amon Amarth Berserker | 2.5 |
| Amorphis The Beginning of Times | 4.0 |

| Anberlin Silverline | 4.0 |
| Anberlin Convinced | 4.0 |
| Anchor and Braille Songs for the Late Night Drive Home | 2.5 |
| Can't help but feel bored by this. It's a nice album, but nice doesn't really cut it. |
| And So I Watch You From Afar Heirs | 3.0 |
| Andrew Judah Impossible Staircase | 4.5 |
| Andrew W. Gold Fool's Gold | 3.5 |
| Andrew W.K. You're Not Alone | 2.0 |
| Andy Black The Shadow Side | 2.5 |
| Given the constant mockery that Black Veil Brides gets, it's at least commendable for Andy Biersack to at least attempt something different in comparison to his other works. However, despite a few decent moments, The Shadow Side is ultimately an empty and forgettable affair that borrows the same elements from other and more popular pop artists out there, and is most likely not going to change your mind about Biersack in general. |
| Angels and Airwaves Love - Part II | 3.5 |
| Angels and Airwaves The Dream Walker | 3.5 |

| Animals As Leaders Parrhesia | 3.0 |
| Arcane Known/Learned | 4.0 |
| Arcane Chronicles of the Waking Dream | 3.5 |
| pure and simple Dream Theater worship, but even then it's still pretty solid |
| Arcane Roots Heaven and Earth | 4.5 |
| Arcane Roots Melancholia Hymns | 5.0 |
| Whoever says this has no emotion hasn't listened to this album. By far my favorite of the year. |
| Arcane Roots Blood and Chemistry | 5.0 |
| Arcane Roots Left Fire | 4.0 |
| Arch Enemy War Eternal | 3.5 |
| Arch Enemy Will to Power | 3.5 |
| Arch Enemy Doomsday Machine | 4.0 |
| Arch Enemy Deceivers | 4.0 |
| definitely their best album in years, by far Alissa's best performance, some decently strong songwriting and Jeff Loomis finally getting a chance to let loose on his guitar a bit, makes for a solid MDM record |
| Architects All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us | 4.0 |
| Architects Holy Hell | 4.0 |
"Hey mods can you do your job and remove all these premature 5s?? It's fucking up the 2018 best of chart, no reason this should be #2. Album will be average as always these dudes have been releasing the same song for years."
This is coming from a guy who rated this a month before it was released |

| As I Lay Dying The Powerless Rise | 4.0 |
| As I Lay Dying Shadows Are Security | 3.5 |
| As I Lay Dying Shaped by Fire | 3.0 |

| Asking Alexandria From Death to Destiny | 3.5 |

| BABYMETAL Metal Resistance | 3.0 |
| BABYMETAL Metal Galaxy | 3.5 |
| Bad Omens The Death of Peace of Mind | 4.5 |
| Bad Omens Bad Omens | 3.5 |
"a Sempiternal copycat band."
still better than Sempiternal tbh |
| Bad Omens Finding God Before God Finds Me | 4.0 |
These guys can't escape the BMTH comparisons the same way that no one can stop comparing Greta Van Fleet to Led Zeppelin.
Still though, this is great |
| Bad Wolves Disobey | 3.0 |
If they did less of the harsh rap-like vocals and had better production then they have to potential to release a damn good album.
Honestly, this is a weird album, but I kinda like it. |
| Bad Wolves N.A.T.I.O.N. | 3.0 |
| Badflower OK, I’M SICK | 4.0 |
| Baroness Red Album | 3.5 |

| mixing is kinda ass and it's 15 minutes too long, still a pretty decent record overall |
| Battle Beast Bringer of Pain | 3.0 |
| Battle Beast No More Hollywood Endings | 3.5 |
| Cut this by about 10-15 minutes and you have yourself a really solid, fun as fuck pop-metal album. Noora's vocals only add to this. |
| Be'lakor Coherence | 4.5 |
| Beartooth Disease | 3.0 |
| Beartooth Disgusting | 3.5 |
| Beartooth Below | 3.0 |
| Beast In Black Berserker | 4.0 |
| It's exactly what you expect. It's dumb, lame and over the top, but it's still manages to be damn good fun without it ever feeling too cringey. |
| Beast In Black From Hell With Love | 4.5 |
| I was afraid from the first two singles that this was going to be another one of those shitty "80s nostalgia throwback" albums that we've been getting a lot of recently, but thankfully that isn't the case at least for the most part. They still retain that metal edge here, and man this album is album is fucking fun. |
| Beast In Black Dark Connection | 4.0 |

| Becoming The Archetype The Physics of Fire | 4.5 |

| Black Veil Brides We Stitch These Wounds | 1.5 |
| Black Veil Brides Black Veil Brides | 2.5 |

"Possibly one of my favorite albums of all time."
you say that about every BVB album that comes out |
| Black Veil Brides The Phantom Tomorrow | 2.5 |
| when in the fuck was this a thing? |
| Blackscape Suffocated By The Sun | 3.5 |
| nothing groundbreaking, but still some solid melodeath with a slight side of thrash mixed in. |
| Bleed from Within Era | 4.0 |
| This is the album to help ease the pain from Parkway Drive's new album, and this came out a month before it. |

| Blue Stahli Blue Stahli | 4.0 |
| Blue Stahli The Devil: Chapter 2 | 3.5 |
| Blue Stahli The Devil | 3.0 |

| Blue Stahli Quartz | 3.0 |
| Borknagar True North | 4.0 |
| Born of Osiris Soul Sphere | 3.5 |
| Born of Osiris Angel or Alien | 3.0 |
| Born of Osiris The Simulation | 3.0 |
| It's another Born of Osiris album. It's fun, well produced, and catchy, but that's really all it is in the end which doesn't amount to much. Though the short album length does benefit. |

| Bullet for My Valentine Venom | 2.5 |

| time to tag this band as 'alternative rock' now I guess |
| Bullet for My Valentine Bullet For My Valentine | 2.5 |
| band is still stuck in the late 2000s I see |
| Caliban Elements | 3.0 |
| Typical metalcore release. Never really got into this band I'm not sure how it stacks up to the rest of their discog but I thought this was pretty decent, albeit generic |

| P.U. this reeks of generic all over the place |
| Dead Letter Circus The Catalyst Fire | 4.0 |
| Dead Letter Circus Dead Letter Circus (2018) | 3.5 |
| a definite improvement over their last album. it's like there's actual energy that was put into here, though they're still trying to stick to the bland indie radio rock sound in a few songs. |
| Deadly Circus Fire The Hydra’s Tailor | 3.5 |

| Fight the Fade APOPHYSITIS | 4.0 |
| Fight The Fury Still Breathing | 3.0 |

I'm really getting tired of these "retro-70s/80s throwback rock" bands
it's getting old and stale, much like the music they're playing |
| Greta Van Fleet The Battle at Garden's Gate | 3.0 |
| it's still by the numbers dad rock that heavily relies on the nostalgia factor...but unlike before, there seems to be some actual creativity in the music, and I'm not gonna lie, it's really not all bad. |
| Gunship Unicorn | 4.5 |
| Haken Affinity | 2.0 |
diet Dream Theater
The synths are so glaringly awful, the production is incredibly bland and the vocal performance is so uninspired. Why do people like this again? |
| Haken The Mountain | 4.0 |
| Haken Vector | 4.5 |
| Haken tone down their awful keyboard work from last time and shorten down the album length, and in return we end up with one of the best prog albums of the year. |
| Haken Virus | 4.5 |
| Not sure if this is better or worse than Vector, but regardless this album rules |
| Haken Fauna | 4.0 |
| Haken are attempting their own version of a Bored Ape |

| Haywyre Panorama: Discover | 3.5 |
| This guys always is always a ball of fun to listen to and this EP is another example. Nothing too out of the ordinary but still a joy to listen to regardless. |

| Hopesfall The Satellite Years | 4.0 |
| Hopesfall Arbiter | 4.0 |
| Definitely a solid record for sure, but being honest there isn't really all that much that particularly blew me away. They've established a solid atmosphere for this album (as per usual) with great instrumentation and a decent lead vocal performance, but it all feels a bit one-dimensional at times. |
| Hundred Suns The Prestaliis | 3.5 |
| Hurt Vol. 1 | 3.5 |
| Hurt Vol. II | 4.0 |
| I Prevail TRAUMA | 3.0 |
| album reminds me of Fever 333, good vocalists, good energy, and good instrumentation that's bogged down by cringey lyrics and really odd songwriting choices. still though there are some legit good songs on here. |

| Ice Nine Kills Every Trick in the Book | 4.0 |
| Ice Nine Kills The Predator Becomes the Prey | 3.5 |
| Ice Nine Kills The Silver Scream | 4.5 |
| It's the type of ridiculous tongue-in-the-cheek, cheesy metalcore that we've come to hate within the past few years, but Ice Nine Kills for the most part manages to make it work in the best way possible and I have no idea why. |
| Ice Nine Kills The Silver Scream 2: Welcome to Horrorwood | 4.0 |
| Idlehands Dena Mora | 3.5 |
| For what it is, it's pretty solid, even if it isn't exactly original. The vocals are great and the music is executed well. An overall solid entry into this year's alt rock category. |

"It's a Kamelot album that isn't Karma, Epica or The Black Halo."
Yeah, its called The Shadow Theory, so it's not those albums. |
| Kamelot The Awakening | 4.0 |
| It's nothing really new compared to most post-Khan Kamelot records, but it seems like they're pushing their symphonic foot forward a bit more which makes this a lot more refreshing. |

| Leprous (almost) completely abandon their heavier side for a more moody and ambient sound. It may be a bit disappointing for fans of their earlier work, but the album is still loaded with gorgeous moments, particularly in the second half. |
| Leprous Pitfalls | 4.5 |
| Leprous Aphelion | 5.0 |
| I'm convinced that the people who say Leprous is an Einar solo project only ever listened to 3 songs off of Bilateral before Pitfalls ever dropped |

| as someone who never really gave a shit about this band, I found this to be completely 100% average. Nothing awful, nothing great, just your typical post-hardcore/hard rock album that literally does nothing new or exciting. |

| Mike Shinoda Post Traumatic EP | 3.0 |
| Mike Shinoda Post Traumatic | 3.5 |
| For an album that's supposed to reflect on what Mike has gone through over the past year I was expecting something more powerful and emotionally resonant. Not saying that it doesn't have it's moments for sure, but I feel like he should've gone the extra mile here. |

| It is what it is, atmospheric prog metalcore/djent with a few great moments and a few bad ones. |

| There's practically an industrial metal vibe to this and it suits them really nicely. It's their best album with Marcus, and might be their best album overall. |

| While it is cool that they're constantly pumping out new stuff, there's only so much of it that I can really listen to seeing how they haven't changed their style since Nija |
| P.O.D. The Awakening | 2.5 |
| A lot of the fun, aggression, and catchiness seems to have been sucked out in favor for a conceptual religious statement that doesn't even constitute as subtle. Seems like they're finally starting to hit the bottom. |

| Pentakill Smite and Ignite | 3.5 |
| Actually pretty impressive for a band based off of a video game such as League of Legends. |
| Pentakill II: Grasp of The Undying | 5.0 |
| Say what you will about a virtual band based on League of Legends and how cheesy/dumb it is, this is one of the best metal albums of the year. |
| Pentakill III: Lost Chapter | 4.5 |
| Definitely a different Pentakill album than the previous two, leaning more towards progressive/heavy metal rather than the power/thrash angle than before. It really does suit them, but the choice of Tyler Smith of The Word Alive as the third vocalist is certainly an odd one. |

| Rhapsody of Fire The Eighth Mountain | 4.0 |
| Giacomo has warmed up to me for sure. Still, no one can replace Fabio for me, and Giacomo can be a little whiny for sure, but I think he did a good job with this record. Album is a lot of fun for those who are in the mood for some good cheese. |

| Soundtrack (Film) The Transformers The Movie | 3.0 |
| One of the few reasons why this film is even notable in the first place. The soundtrack is way too dependant on other artists to help the film gain popularity, even if some of the songs are fun to listen to. It's a decent soundtrack all the same despite it belonging to a film that only appealed to a cult following. |

| Tool Lateralus | 4.0 |
| Tool Ænima | 4.5 |
| Tool Undertow | 3.0 |
| Tool Fear Inoculum | 2.0 |
| 7empest might as well be one of their best songs to date, and Chocolate Chip Trip is a fun little instrumental, shame I can't say the same with the rest of the album, everything else is just so goddamn boring. |
| Toothgrinder Nocturnal Masquerade | 3.0 |

| Witherfall A Prelude to Sorrow | 3.0 |
| it's certainly heavier and more technical than their last album, but at the same time I feel like a lot of the fun moments are just sucked out at the same time. This was actually pretty boring for the most part. |
| Within Temptation The Unforgiving | 4.0 |
| Within Temptation Resist | 3.5 |

| Wolves at the Gate VxV | 4.5 |
| Wolves at the Gate Reprise | 3.5 |
| Wolves at the Gate Types & Shadows | 3.5 |
| It took a long time, but this record has grown on me a lot since this came out. What I took as a cop out of mid-era Thrice sound, I realized that this is their most mature record. The vocal performances are what makes this, especially Steven's clean vocals. While I still like the other two records more, I can safely say that this is a great record. |
| Wolves at the Gate Eclipse | 3.5 |
| Definitely their most "mainstream" record. It's got good production, nice melodies and great performances from both vocalists, yet at the same time there's nothing here that other bands haven't done before, some even better. It's a solid record, but nothing really blew me away. |
