Songs Of Ice And Fire: A Journey Through Icelandic Black Metal The Icelandic Black Metal scene received quite a bit of hype and love in the middle of the last decade. As with most things, the supply of greatness couldn't live up to the demand. We have a handful of true gems from this scene and a lot of mediocre schlock.
Ordered from best to worst based on my opinion. Listen and decide for yourself.

Fave BM (and BM-adjacent) Albums * Updating this as I get around to doing song-by-song on RYM.
* 1 album per band * limiting this to actual black metal releases, as opposed to releases by bands that were, at one time, black metal. >> Some bands really do incorporate a lot of both death metal or doom (or avant garde or folk, etc) and black metal in their albums, so I consider them to be 'black metal adjacent' even if it might not be 'purely black metal'

Metal AotY, 1970 Through Present My personal hard rock/heavy metal album of the year that I own.
Truthfully, for several years, I just gave up trying to figure out what was in 2nd place (and sometimes, even in 1st). Some years have so many options....

The Best Metal Albums* From A To # (S) This list is meant to be an extensive, but by no means exhaustive, collection of the greatest (modern) metal albums and eps. Running the gamut from avant-garde to trve norweigan black metal. *As someone who is young in age, my tastes tend to revolve around the period of the 80s to the present.* Although certain metal albums from before will certainly be featured, the period of the 60s-70s will be under-represented. I refer you to this excellent list to gain a better appreciation for some of the best metal from that period: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/freis/martin_popoffs_the_top_500_heavy_metal_albums_of_all_time/

The Best Of Dissonant Metal Metal art of dissonance as I love it.
Rules: - on album per band, unless the band has very different albums. -I'm not picky for albums released before 2000. -I'm not picky for genres that are to some degrees unusual for the dissonance, like sludge metal. This list is open to suggestions.

2012 My tastes seem to have changed quite a bit since I originally made this list. I have since updated it to better reflect my opinions of 2012 in retrospect. A well rounded and impressive year for metal.
