Top albums for the year (8+) rating - Meaning that the albums are worthy of multiple listens and purchase. 9 and 10s are must buy immediately.

There is no real order other than rating and then usually just in order of listening to the album. I don't get to listen to a large portion of the albums that get released, so this list is by no means comprehensive.

1.Blackbraid - Blackbraid II

2.Tribunal - The Weight Of Remembrance

3.Signo Rojo - There Was A Hole Here

4.In Flames - Foregone

5.Frozen Dawn - The Decline Of The Enlightened Gods

1.Flesh Of The Stars - The Glass Garden

2.Dødheimsgard - Black Medium Current

3.TesseracT - War Of Being

4.The Ocean - Holocene

5.Ne Obliviscaris - Exul
