20. October Tide - In Splendor Below
Doom Metal isn’t my go to genre, but this album turned me right into the genre and made me see it in a new light.
19. Dayseeker - Sleeptalk
While not being entirely metal, it does have it’s moments and it’s kept me listening since i first heard it due to the tone and experimentation of the genres.
18. Enterprise Earth - Luciferous
Being a Metal/Deathcore kid this album just ticks all of the right boxes for myself. Brutal, fast and sickening vocals combined with the technical instrumentals make it the perfect Deathcore record.
17. Brymir - Wings Of Fire:
Huge Symphonic Death Metal that was made to be played for arenas. With big riffs and hooks there’s no shortage of anything from this album. It’s huge.
16. Danny Worsnop - Shades Of Blue
Not a metal album but I had to include it because of how much I love the music and lyrics. Small departure from his first solo effort being more blues, but it’s still a touching record.
15. Killswitch Engage - Atonement
The Metalcore kings hit hard with this absolute banger of an album with multiple guests. Including one Howard Jones.

14. As I Lay Dying - Shaped By Fire
After a 7 year gap between albums, a whole lot of controversy and a reawakening the Metalcore perfecters hit it on the head with this brilliant record.

1. Der Weg Einer Freiheit - Live In Berlin
