Since I did a list of albums from every year since I was born, here is my list of albums of my faves before the year of my birth, and will go back to 1969 at the very earliest. Some of the early ones won't be on Metal Storm, since much of the 70s albums are Prog.

1.King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King

2.Genesis - Trespass

3.Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV

4.Genesis - Foxtrot

5.Black Sabbath - Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

Here are the albums that I have heard so far in 2013. The list will grow as I listen to more albums that come out (which doesn't seem like much compared to 2012, but I'll take what I get regardless). This list is listed from what I hear first to last (Dustwalker by Fen is the first album I heard this year), not by rank. Album ranks will be placed in each description.

1.Fen - Dustwalker

2.Riverside - Shrine Of New Generation Slaves

3.Cult Of Luna - Vertikal

4.Steven Wilson - The Raven That Refused To Sing (And Other Stories)

5.Darkthrone - The Underground Resistance

The list is small for now, but it will definitely grow over time. There may be non-metal bands that I go to see, but it doesn't matter, I'll include them as well (even the crappy pop bands that I was dragged to by my parents)! It's just a personal way for me to remember all the bands I've seen. The bands are in order of when I saw them. If I see the same band again, I will add more dates to the same line.

1.NSYNC - November 27, 2000

2."Weird Al" Yankovic - July 26, 2002; August 7, 2004

3.Aaron Carter - July 29, 2003

4.Daughtry - July 18, 2007

5.UB40 - September 20, 2008

Keep in mind, there is not a single Katatonia album that I dislike or think is "okay". I have a deep respect and admiration for this group, so much so that even my least favorite album by the group is a very good one.

1.Katatonia - Viva Emptiness

2.Katatonia - Discouraged Ones

3.Katatonia - The Great Cold Distance

4.Katatonia - Dead End Kings

5.Katatonia - Dance Of December Souls

3.Ulver - Wars Of The Roses

4.Fen - Epoch

Any albums that don't make it into my personal top twenty albums list (particularly those that were once on the list but were bumped off) should be mentioned too (unless they suck)! I will add any albums that made an impression on me, but weren't enough for my top twenty or were originally top twenty contenders that were bumped off in room for better albums.

1.Three Hour Ceasefire - Cry Havoc EP

2.Kreator - Phantom Antichrist

3.Baroness - Yellow & Green

4.Bilocate - Summoning The Bygones

5.Overkill - The Electric Age
