2014, The Year With Not So Much Enough Good Metal (so Far)

If you make a quick comparison between 2014 and the previous years Top 20 Album lists, you would notice that the top album of 2014, have the lowest rating average compared to 2013,2012, 2011 and 2010. No single album so far, have an average above 8.5. This sucks. Here is a list that has some albums that I think are the best of this crappy year (so far).

1.Swans - To Be Kind
2.Lunatic Soul - Walking On A Flashlight Beam
3.Emptiness - Nothing But The Whole
4.Behemoth - The Satanist
5.

robpal's 2014 as it goes...

My list of 2014 likes (to be expanded). Notes can and will change during the year, since I like listening to albums multiple times and have a really good view before the final note.

I'd say 3/5 is my default note, just an okay CD with nothing spectacular.

1.Soen - Tellurian
2.Opeth - Pale Communion
3.Evergrey - Hymns For The Broken
4.Ne Obliviscaris - Citadel
5.Threshold - For The Journey
