| I was afraid from the first two singles that this was going to be another one of those shitty "80s nostalgia throwback" albums that we've been getting a lot of recently, but thankfully that isn't the case at least for the most part. They still retain that metal edge here, and man this album is album is fucking fun. |

| Leprous (almost) completely abandon their heavier side for a more moody and ambient sound. It may be a bit disappointing for fans of their earlier work, but the album is still loaded with gorgeous moments, particularly in the second half. |
| Leprous Pitfalls |
| Leprous Aphelion |

| The James Hetfield-esque clean vocals are gonna urk a few people here but this is still a fantastic record. |
| Orbit Culture Descent |
| Pentakill III: Lost Chapter |
| Definitely a different Pentakill album than the previous two, leaning more towards progressive/heavy metal rather than the power/thrash angle than before. It really does suit them, but the choice of Tyler Smith of The Word Alive as the third vocalist is certainly an odd one. |

| The Mercury Tree Countenance |
| The Mercury Tree Freeze In Phantom Form |

| 10 Years (How to Live) As Ghosts |
| Their best since The Autumn Effect. Wantland's return, Rasckulinecz's production, and what might be Jesse's best vocal performance to date, (how to live) As Ghosts not only marks a return to form for 10 Years, but a new chapter for the band that contains a very bright future. |

"Hey mods can you do your job and remove all these premature 5s?? It's fucking up the 2018 best of chart, no reason this should be #2. Album will be average as always these dudes have been releasing the same song for years."

| Far Beyond A Frozen Flame of Ice |
| A great mixture of some of the best elements of melodic death metal and power metal put together into one album. It's almost as if Wintersun and Rhapsody of Fire had a child. Plus the song about Skyrim is fucking rad. |

| Fates Warning Theories of Flight |
| Faunts M4 |

| Fifth Density Dominion of the Sun |
It's as if the sounds of Haken and TesseracT merged together. It's a little overlong, but it's damn good.
And the fact that it's name your own price on their Bandcamp makes it doubly sweet. |
| Fight the Fade Second Horizon |
| Awful band name aside, this is a surprisingly enjoyable record that's both memorable and consistent, and contains one hell of a vocal performance. |
| Fight the Fade Fight The Fade |
| Fight the Fade mature their sound to deliver an excellent sophomore effort, but more importantly, a surprisingly unique record for it's genre. |
| Fight the Fade Masks |
| By far their heaviest release yet. While the production does tend to be over-saturated at times this is still really enjoyable while Zene Smith continues to be one of the best vocalists in the genre. |

| Hopesfall Arbiter |
| Definitely a solid record for sure, but being honest there isn't really all that much that particularly blew me away. They've established a solid atmosphere for this album (as per usual) with great instrumentation and a decent lead vocal performance, but it all feels a bit one-dimensional at times. |

| Kamelot Silverthorn: Limited Edition |
| Kamelot The Shadow Theory |
"It's a Kamelot album that isn't Karma, Epica or The Black Halo."
Yeah, its called The Shadow Theory, so it's not those albums. |
| Kamelot The Awakening |
| It's nothing really new compared to most post-Khan Kamelot records, but it seems like they're pushing their symphonic foot forward a bit more which makes this a lot more refreshing. |

| Shinedown The Sound of Madness |
| Shinedown Attention Attention |
| Definitely their best since Sound of Madness. That being said, there are a few songs that had them carry over their pop-influences from their last album which isn't entirely a good thing. |

| Wolves at the Gate Types & Shadows |
| It took a long time, but this record has grown on me a lot since this came out. What I took as a cop out of mid-era Thrice sound, I realized that this is their most mature record. The vocal performances are what makes this, especially Steven's clean vocals. While I still like the other two records more, I can safely say that this is a great record. |

| Atreyu In Our Wake |
| Avenged Sevenfold Life Is But A Dream... |
| Ayreon Transitus |
| BABYMETAL Metal Resistance |
| Bad Wolves Disobey |
If they did less of the harsh rap-like vocals and had better production then they have to potential to release a damn good album.
Honestly, this is a weird album, but I kinda like it. |
| Bad Wolves N.A.T.I.O.N. |
| Battle Beast Bringer of Pain |
| Beartooth Disease |
| Beartooth Below |
| Believer Gabriel |
| Between the Buried and Me Coma Ecliptic |
| Black Veil Brides Wretched and Divine |
| Blessthefall Hollow Bodies |
| Blue Stahli The Devil |
| pretty much a more generic version of the s/t. it's got catchy parts but the lyrics are rather cringey at times |
| Blue Stahli Quartz |
| Born of Osiris Angel or Alien |
| Born of Osiris The Simulation |
| It's another Born of Osiris album. It's fun, well produced, and catchy, but that's really all it is in the end which doesn't amount to much. Though the short album length does benefit. |
| Breaking Benjamin Breaking Benjamin |
| Breathe Atlantis Shorelines |
| Bring Me The Horizon POST HUMAN: NeX GEn |
| Caliban Elements |
| Typical metalcore release. Never really got into this band I'm not sure how it stacks up to the rest of their discog but I thought this was pretty decent, albeit generic |
| Celldweller Soundtrack for the Voices in My Head |
| Celldweller Blackstar: Original Score |
| Celldweller Offworld |
| it's not so much risk taking as it's more of a nice change of pace from a guy who's been waving his electronic cock at us for the past five years. |
| Chevelle This Type of Thinking (Could Do Us In) |
| CHVRCHES Love Is Dead |
| Crossfade Falling Away |
| Dance Gavin Dance Happiness |
| Dance Gavin Dance Acceptance Speech |
| Deftones Adrenaline |
| Demon Hunter Outlive |
| Easily their softest and most melodic album. It would work, if only Clark sounded like he gave a damn and they had gotten a different producer. Still though, I'm probably going to buy this just for the nostalgia. |
| Device Device |
| Devin Townsend Project Ghost |
| Devour The Day Time & Pressure |
| Devour The Day Time & Pressure (Re-Release) |
| Devour The Day Signals |
| still not original by any means, but there are some good moments on here. a much needed improvement over their last snooze-fest |
| Dharmata Dharmata |
| It's like a mix between Sevendust and Disturbed. It's decent but hardly innovative. |
| Disciple (USA-TN) O God Save Us All |
| Disturbed The Sickness |
| Disturbed Asylum |
| Disturbed Immortalized |
| if this disturbs you then walk away |
| Disturbed Believe |
| DragonForce Maximum Overload |
| Dream Theater The Astonishing |
| Epica Design Your Universe |
| Epica Requiem for the Indifferent |
| Epica The Divine Conspiracy |
| Evanescence The Open Door |
| Failure Anthem First World Problems |
| Fatal FE Renaissance |
| Fatal FE Speed Of Light |
| Fear Factory Digimortal |
| FEVER 333 Strength in Numb333rs |
| Fight The Fury Still Breathing |
| definitely a shit ton better than what Skillet are doing now. Nothing really original or even unfamiliar for them in general, but still a fun little hard rock EP nonetheless. |
| Fightstar Grand Unification |
| Fit for a King The Path |
| Foo Fighters Saint Cecilia |
| Framing Hanley The Sum of Who We Are |
| Front Line Assembly FLAvour of the Weak |
| Fucked Up Dose Your Dreams |
| This would be a lot better if it was literally cut in half, but fuck me there's no way I can sit through 90 minutes of this. |
| Gates (USA-NJ) Parallel Lives |
| Ghost Atlas All Is in Sync... |
singer sounds a LOT like Cove Reber
don't know why everyone is losing their shit over this. It's not bad but it's not really noteworthy |
| God Is an Astronaut Helios/Erebus |
| God Is an Astronaut Epitaph |
| God Is an Astronaut Ghost Tapes #10 |
| slightly better than the horrendously mixed Epitaph, but...at the end of the day it's just another post rock album |
| Gone Is Gone Gone Is Gone |
| Good Tiger A Head Full of Moonlight |
| can't really see what's so great about this |
| Good Tiger We Will All be Gone |
| Gorillaz Humanz |
| Greta Van Fleet The Battle at Garden's Gate |
| it's still by the numbers dad rock that heavily relies on the nostalgia factor...but unlike before, there seems to be some actual creativity in the music, and I'm not gonna lie, it's really not all bad. |
| Haste the Day Coward |
| It's too safe and there really isn't anything that memorable to make this album stand out. In general, it's just another metalcore album. |
| Hatebreed The Concrete Confessional |
| it's another Hatebreed album |
| Haywyre Dubsonic |
| Head with Wings From Worry To Shame |
| I Prevail TRAUMA |
| album reminds me of Fever 333, good vocalists, good energy, and good instrumentation that's bogged down by cringey lyrics and really odd songwriting choices. still though there are some legit good songs on here. |
| Ill Nino Till Death, La Familia |
| Imagine Dragons Night Visions |
| In Flames Lunar Strain |
| In Flames A Sense of Purpose |
| Judas Priest Redeemer Of Souls |
| Kamelot Poetry for the Poisoned:Live From Wacken |
| Kendrick Lamar DAMN. |
| Killswitch Engage Atonement |
| The Signal Fire and The Crownless King are cool jams but almost everything else is just been-there-done-that metalcore. Nothing awful other than the fact that KSE are stuck in their own complacency |
| Lacuna Coil Delirium |
| Lamb of God Lamb Of God |
| Light the Torch The Beauty Of Destruction |
| Light the Torch They Bleed Red |
| A slight improvement compared to their last album, but it still doesn't make up for Howard's obnoxious cleans and dated production. |
| Light the Torch You Will Be the Death of Me |
| Howard Jones sounds great but that's pretty much it |
| Linkin Park Reanimation |
| Lione/Conti Lione/Conti |
| it's nice to see Fabio is still around. The album is certainly fun, but there's really no surprises if you're familiar with his career. |
| Low and Behold Uppers |
| Ryan Clark continues to experiment with other sounds and genres, once again producing passable results. |
| Mike Shinoda Post Traumatic EP |
| Miss May I Shadows Inside |
| Modest Mouse We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank |
| Monuments (UK) Gnosis |
| Monuments (UK) Phronesis |
| Sacrificing most of their djenty grooves in favor of a more meat-and-potatoes metalcore sound, a sad disappointment indeed. Though the album isn't without some pretty darn good bangers. |
| Motorhead Bad Magic |
| Muse The Resistance |
| Myles Kennedy Year of the Tiger |
| Myrkur Spine |
| Neck Deep The Peace And The Panic |
| It's pretty much everything you would expect from a pop-punk outfit. Nothing offensive, but nothing really worth sinking your teeth into. |
| Neurosis Fires Within Fires |
| NYVES Anxiety |
| This lacks a creative edge from both the production and Ryan's vocals. I feel like there should be a lot more to this than what we're getting so far. |
| Of Mice and Men Defy |
| Oranges Taxonomy |
| it's like a less shittier version of Dance Gavin Dance, neat! |
| Orbit Culture The Forgotten |
| While it is cool that they're constantly pumping out new stuff, there's only so much of it that I can really listen to seeing how they haven't changed their style since Nija |

| Peruse Being Human |
| https://peruse.bandcamp.com/album/being-human |
| Porcupine Tree Closure/Continuation |
| Powerwolf Call of the Wild |
| Ra Intercorrupted |
| some good stuff in here for sure, but unfortunately they seemed to have traded off their unique sound in favor of whatever Starset seem to be doing nowadays. |
| Red (USA) Gone |
| Red (USA) Rated R |
| Red Hot Chili Peppers The Getaway |
"Could you guys actually WAIT for the album instead of already rating it?"
once the album leaks the ratings are legitimate stop complaining |

| Relient K Truly Madly Deeply EP |

| It's Sevendust 3/5 |
| Shinedown Leave a Whisper |
| Short Term Eternity A Black Hole To Paradise |
| Silverstein Dead Reflection |
| Skillet Rise |
| Their new song sounds weird. It's got some good guitar parts but the vocals seem a little...awkward. It's probably just me. |
| Sleeping With Sirens Madness |
| Slipknot We Are Not Your Kind |
| Why the fuck does this have a 100 on Metacritic? |
| Soilwork Sworn to a Great Divide |
| Soilwork Figure Number Five |
| Soulfly Ritual |
| Soundtrack (Film) The Transformers The Movie |
| One of the few reasons why this film is even notable in the first place. The soundtrack is way too dependant on other artists to help the film gain popularity, even if some of the songs are fun to listen to. It's a decent soundtrack all the same despite it belonging to a film that only appealed to a cult following. |
| Starset Transmissions |
| This is a really, really over-produced record. I like it. |
| Starset Vessels |
| Stone Sour Meanwhile In Burbank... |
| There really isn't much to talk about when it comes to this. You know the songs, guitar riffs, drumming, and the lyrics. It's all a matter of how well they perform them. Stone Sour does fine, but in the end it makes you want to listen to the original versions. |
| Stone Temple Pilots Stone Temple Pilots (2018) |
| Suicide Silence Become The Hunter |
| The Acacia Strain Step Into The Light |
| The Afters When The World Is Wonderful |
| The Agonist Orphans |
| The Dark Element The Dark Element |
| Imagine if the current In Flames had female vocals. That's pretty much this album in a nutshell. And surprisingly enough, it's pretty solid. |

| The Icarus Complex Horizons of Endless Gray |

| Times of Grace Songs of Loss and Separation |
70% of this album is basically KSE ballads
not bad but nothing really worth going back to |
| Too Close to Touch I'm Hard to Love, But So Are You, Vol. 1 |
| Hopefully they won't stick to this direction entirely. They're good at mixing their pop with their rock, but I feel like they should stick with mixing them if they want to stay relevant. |
| Tool Undertow |
| Toothgrinder Nocturnal Masquerade |
| Tremonti A Dying Machine |
| Trivium The Crusade |
| Trivium Vengeance Falls |
| Trivium Silence in the Snow |
| I guess this is the year for incredibly bland album art |
| Underoath Erase Me |
| Veil of Maya [id] |
| We Came As Romans Cold Like War |
| We Lost the Sea Triumph and Disaster |
| Weezer The White Album |
| While She Sleeps So What? |
| Witherfall A Prelude to Sorrow |
| it's certainly heavier and more technical than their last album, but at the same time I feel like a lot of the fun moments are just sucked out at the same time. This was actually pretty boring for the most part. |
| 2.5 average |
| Adele 25 |
| pretty generic, even for Adele's standards. |
| Alter Bridge One Day Remains |
| Amaranthe Helix |
| I've always wondered why people found this band so average, now I know |
| Amon Amarth Jomsviking |
| Amon Amarth Berserker |
| Anchor and Braille Songs for the Late Night Drive Home |
| Can't help but feel bored by this. It's a nice album, but nice doesn't really cut it. |
| Andy Black The Shadow Side |
| Given the constant mockery that Black Veil Brides gets, it's at least commendable for Andy Biersack to at least attempt something different in comparison to his other works. However, despite a few decent moments, The Shadow Side is ultimately an empty and forgettable affair that borrows the same elements from other and more popular pop artists out there, and is most likely not going to change your mind about Biersack in general. |
| Avenged Sevenfold The Stage |
| Metallica's releasing a new album this year, does this mean that this band can fuck off now? |
| Black Veil Brides Black Veil Brides |
| Black Veil Brides Vale |
"Possibly one of my favorite albums of all time."
you say that about every BVB album that comes out |
| Black Veil Brides The Phantom Tomorrow |
| when in the fuck was this a thing? |
| Bring Me The Horizon There Is a Hell, Believe Me I've Seen It... |
| Bring Me The Horizon amo |
| Kanye West did this album art way better tbh |
| Bullet For My Valentine Venom |
| Bullet For My Valentine Bullet for My Valentine |
| band is still stuck in the late 2000s I see |
| Capture Reign of Terror |
| Crossfade Crossfade |
| Crown the Empire The Fallout |
| Crown the Empire Retrograde |
| rather dull and predictable, by the fourth track it all just ends up sounding the same |
| Dance Gavin Dance Instant Gratification |
| still don't see too much of the appeal with this band |
| Dance Gavin Dance Downtown Battle Mountain II |
| Dance Gavin Dance Afterburner |
| Daniel Tompkins Castles |
| just take the guitars out of Tesseract and what your left with is this |
| Dead Letter Circus Aesthesis |
| P.U. this reeks of generic all over the place |
| Demon Hunter Exile |
| Disciple (USA-TN) My Daddy Can Whip Your Daddy |
| DragonForce Ultra Beatdown |
| DragonForce Extreme Power Metal |
| the Marc Hudson version of "Ultra Beatdown" |
| Emarosa 131 |
| Epica Consign to Oblivion |
| Estrons You Say I'm Too Much, I Say You're Not Enough |
| sounds like Paramore if they tried to make a post-punk record |
| Evanescence The Bitter Truth |
| Foo Fighters Medicine at Midnight |
| From First to Last Dead Trees |
| sounds like a metalcore version of Periphery...oh wait |
| In Flames Siren Charms |
| In Flames I, the Mask |
| Did the Jester just turn into a mummified vagina? |
| Justin Bieber Purpose |
| Kendrick Lamar To Pimp a Butterfly |
| Killswitch Engage Killswitch Engage |
| Limp Bizkit Still Sucks |
| Mechina Acheron |
| Memphis May Fire Broken |
| as someone who never really gave a shit about this band, I found this to be completely 100% average. Nothing awful, nothing great, just your typical post-hardcore/hard rock album that literally does nothing new or exciting. |
| My Chemical Romance Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge |
| Nickelback Feed the Machine |
| Northward Northward |
| Floor Jensen is such a great vocalist, but this is just another complete waste of her talent |
| Opeth In Cauda Venenum |
| P.O.D. The Awakening |
| A lot of the fun, aggression, and catchiness seems to have been sucked out in favor for a conceptual religious statement that doesn't even constitute as subtle. Seems like they're finally starting to hit the bottom. |
| Periphery Juggernaut: Alpha |
| Persefone In Lak'Ech |

| Rhapsody of Fire Rain Of A Thousand Flames |
| Rhapsody of Fire Legendary Years |
| I'm still not convinced if Giacomo is the right replacement for Fabio as the vocalist. While he certainly is a better singer and I'll give him credit that he's not trying to sound like Fabio, I don't think he fits in very well with the music. |
| Saint Asonia Saint Asonia |
| Seether Isolate And Medicate |
| Skillet Victorious |
| I mean, it's a Skillet album. But for a Skillet album, there's some surprisingly solid stuff in here. |
| Skillet Dominion |
| Skrillex Bangarang |
| Skrillex More Monsters and Sprites |
| Sleeping With Sirens How It Feels to Be Lost |
| going from electro-pop to mainstream radio rock, I guess it's an improvement? |

| Sonic Syndicate Sonic Syndicate |
| Sorry For Nothing Psycho Monster Ressurection |
| Steven Wilson The Future Bites |
| Swallow the Sun Shining |
| TesseracT Sonder |
The tracklists are getting shorter and shorter. Next thing you know they'll release an empty disc and call it an album.
"Can someone please explain to toondude that longer tracklist =/= better music"
lol, that's not why I didn't like it. I didn't like this because it's boring af. |
| The Afters Light Up The Sky |
| The Contortionist Clairvoyant |

| This album is proof on why Howard Benson is an absolute shit stain in the music industry. |
| All That Remains Madness |
"'Madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting something to change.'
Apparently, All That Remains didn't get the memo."
Snide, considering you do the same thing with your music, I don't think you got it either |

I'm really getting tired of these "retro-70s/80s throwback rock" bands

| Haken Affinity |
diet Dream Theater
The synths are so glaringly awful, the production is incredibly bland and the vocal performance is so uninspired. Why do people like this again? |
| Highly Suspect MCID |
| Imagine Dragons Smoke + Mirrors |
| Lastwatch Leave a Light On |
| Linkin Park A Thousand Suns |
| Linkin Park Minutes to Midnight |
| Nickelback Here and Now |
| I don't really think it's as bad as Dark Horse, but it's still pretty bad. "This Means War" and "When We Stand Together" are the only songs I find tolerable. |
| Nickelback Silver Side Up |
| Nine Lashes From Water to War |
| Nothing More The Stories We Tell Ourselves |
| The nu-metal influences in this practically ruin this. |
| Opeth Sorceress |
| Porcupine Tree On the Sunday of Life |
| Seether Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces |
| Shinedown Threat to Survival |
| Skinbound Between Blood And Angels |
| Starset Horizons |
| It's nothing but the same crap they've been writing since Vessels. The songwriting, the production, the instrumentation, it's all the same. Nothing has changed at all. |
| Suicide Silence Suicide Silence |
| Theory of a Deadman Scars and Souvenirs |
| Their slower songs are much better than their faster songs. Their faster songs sound like a country band that is trying to turn rock. |
| Theory of a Deadman Savages |
| It may not change your opinion on Theory of a Deadman, but admittedly enough it's a vast improvement over their last three albums. |
| Thousand Foot Krutch Exhale |
| Three Days Grace Outsider |
| just a jump to the left |
| Tool Fear Inoculum |
| 7empest might as well be one of their best songs to date, and Chocolate Chip Trip is a fun little instrumental, shame I can't say the same with the rest of the album, everything else is just so goddamn boring. |
| Toothgrinder I Am |
| Three Days Grace sure are consistent aren't they? |
| We As Human We As Human |
