O' Canada! (Ordered By Years) Good day folks! T'day, I just wanted to share the best of what Canada has to offer when it comes to Metal, eh. It seems a lot of people don't yet know that Canada's a force to be reckoned with when it comes to the heavy stuff and I'll show you just how much!
The main goal here is to help people discover the history of Canadian Metal through time and amazing releases. To do so, I'll be listing a single album per band and order the list by year of release from oldest to newest then I'll identify the genre for each of them. Note that the albums chosen aren't necessarily the best of each band but my personal favorites and in my humble opinion, good points of entry into a band's discography. I will try to fill each gaps in years over time and add new bands as I discover them. (So this list is permanently under construction). Also, as always in my lists, releases with a ''★'' are the ones I believe you shouldn't miss because of their impact, uniqueness or just because they are my favourites. There is a lot of different styles, I did my best to diversify so there should be something interesting for everyone! - - - - - - - - - - To my fellow Canadians, if you have recommendations or wanna point out obvious albums I might have missed, please feel free to let me know. To everyone else, I hope you'll like this virtual musical trip to the great white north! Enjoy. Oh and you're really all welcome to suggest albums. - Guib - Last Update: April 15th, 2024

Top Metal Albums Each Year I Have Been Alive 2019 A little list series where I list my top 20 favorite metal albums every year starting from the year I was born in.
2019 was solid year to end the decade with great releases in Progressive and black metal, doom metal had a strong showing and I finally found a deathcore band that I care about, the 2010's may not have been the most influential decade in metal but it did had a punch of great releases, that might be considered classics down the line, time will tell. My favorite non metal albums of 2019 1. Remind Me Tomorrow By Sharon Van Etten (Indie Pop, Synthpop) 2. GREY Area By Little Simz(UK Hip Hop, Conscious Hip Hop) 3.Titanic Rising By Weyes Blood (Art pop, Dream pop) 4. Morbid Stuff By PUP (pop punk) 5. There Existed an Addiction to Blood By clipping. (Industrial Hip Hop, Horrorcore) My favorite movie from 2019

F3ynman's Checklist Here are albums (ordered by subgenre) that I want to listen to, but haven't yet.
For some albums, I've heard one or two songs, but not the entire album. Therefore, these albums still await my judgement! Recommendations are always welcome!

Top 100 (+2) Of 2015-2019 2000-2004 list: http://www.metalstorm.net/users/list.php?list_id=5844
2005-2009 list: http://www.metalstorm.net/users/list.php?list_id=5838 2010-2014 list: http://www.metalstorm.net/users/list.php?list_id=5828 I sure do love this site and it's rating system, it makes finding great music so easy and, even more importantly, when an album is overlooked for a while but starts getting a buzz a few months later, boom, there it appears in the top 20. All that being said, I still wish there was some way to get a weighted ranking that not only takes the rating of the album into account, but also the number of votes that were cast. For example, an album with a rating of 8.8 and 1000 votes would rank higher than an album with a rating of 8.9 and 20 votes. So, I scraped all the albums on the site with at least 1 vote into a database. Then, taking a leaf out of IMDb's book, I used Bayesian estimation (like the IMDb's Top 250) to calculate a weighted rating for each album based on its Metal Storm rating and the number of votes it had received. The formula for calculating the Top 100 Albums gives a true Bayesian estimate: Bayes rating (BR) = ( C × m + R × N ) ÷ ( m + N ) where: C = average expected rating given... m = minimum number of votes R = average rating for the album = (Metal Storm rating) N = number of votes for the album = (votes) The way the Bayesian estimator works is that all albums in the database are given and additional m fake votes with an average rating of C, irrespective of how many true votes it already has. Then a new weighted rating is calculated... If the album has no true votes ( N = 0 ), then BR = ( C × m + R × 0 ) ÷ ( m + 0) = C × m ÷ m = C (the average expected rating). If the album has a number of true votes equal to the minimum ( N = m ), then BR = ( C × m + R × m ) ÷ ( m + m ) = ( C + R ) × m ÷ 2m = ( C + R ) ÷ 2 (halfway between the two ratings). If the album has a very large number of true votes ( N >> m ), then BR = ( C × m + R × N ) ÷ ( m + N ) ≈ R × N ÷ N = R (the Metal Storm rating). This means that the Bayes rating will never equal the Metal Storm rating but will approach it as the true votes grows arbitrarily large. Now that the maths bit is out of the way, here was my methodology: Only Studio and EP album types, from the years 2015 to 2019, with at least 1 vote, were included. The average expected rating (C) was determined by averaging all the Metal Storm ratings from 2015-2019. The minimum number of votes (m) was determined by calculating the 75th percentile of the votes, rounded to the nearest 10. I also decided that if an album's Bayes rating was within 0.005 of #100, it would be included too; hence the +2. C for 2015-2019 = 7.422 m = 20 Number of albums from each year in the list: 2015 - 31 2016 - 24 2017 - 18 2018 - 12 2019 - 17 Ratings are accurate as of 30/10/2023

Best Of 2019! Another year, year of the pipe?
New record from new albums, many were old bands I knew before, some I found by my self, some thanks to Radu and Old Nick. 1 to 17 is in some how in order as I think was best ! Rest is alphabetically because those are albums I like are equally good and I have listen all more as 3 times. 223 to 232 are disapoinmets and last one is biggest in whole poser and TrOO metal history. In middle like I told are decent and heavy , good albums. What next year will bring? I hope more good music not new album number to brake. This is trOO metal baby!

Best Of 2010-2020 By Mz The best of 2010-2019. At the end it tuned out to be less diverse than what I thought it would be in terms of musical genres, with mostly black and death metal record filling the spots.
Recommendations more than welcomed.
