My second 5-year summary list, just to give mentions to some bands that released songs I have loved over the past few years which didn't necessarily deliver a whole package that won me over. The top order of this list will probably have a greater focus on melodic, hooky, punchy-yet-accessible more mainstream songs, as a) those songs are more likely to stand out and worm into your head, especially on an uneven record, and b) they help fuel my workouts so get a lot more plays.

1.The Dillinger Escape Plan - Widower (Runners-up: N/A)

2.Be'lakor - In Parting (Runners-up: The Dream And The Waking, Remnants, Of Moon And Star)

3.Voyager - A Beautiful Mistake (Runners-up: The Morning Light)

4.Protest The Hero - Drumhead Trial (Runners-up: Skies, C'est La Vie, Sex-Tapes)

5.Sylosis - Serpent's Tongue (Runners-up: The River, Paradox, Kingdom Of Solitude)

This is a big one in that opinions I have seen and heard vary greatly. This simply represents my own thoughts. I am loathe to ever put a band's most recent album at the top of the list, but in this case I absolutely feel it is warranted. Albums I have not listened to have been left off. I have not delved into their straight-black metal period.

1.Behemoth - The Satanist

2.Behemoth - Zos Kia Cultus (Here And Beyond)

3.Behemoth - Evangelion

4.Behemoth - Demigod

5.Behemoth - Satanica
