Havok’s Burn gets my vote. Shocking to think this is their debut album.

You left of Brokencyde and Emmure’s new records (at this point you probably know I am not joking)

Another vote for Kylesa’s Static Tensions. This album is just sick on so many levels.

I fully agree with Amorphis and Suidakra… Vortech was just kinda meh, Tyr doesn’t do anything for me, I haven’t gotten to Anubis Gate yet but it’s queued up, and I haven’t really heard the rest.

My list thus far:

Clutch – Strange Cousins From The West
Gorod – Process Of A New Decline
Amorphis – Skyforger
Obscura – Cosmogenesis
Animals As Leaders – Animals As Leaders
Dååth – The Concealers
Supercommuter – Supercommuter
NOFX – Coaster
Lamb Of God – Wrath
Suidakra – Crogacht
Devin Townsend Project – Ki

No particular order beyond the first two. I’m probably forgetting some. There have been a LOT of albums this year that I’ve enjoyed.

Also, stuff I’m eagerly anticipating:
Baroness
Slayer
Megadeth
Celldweller
HORSE The Band
Ensiferum (I had no idea they were almost done with their new album already!)
Diablo Swing Orchestra
Eluveitie (Evocation II)
And I’m probably most excited about the new EP/album that Powerglove is currently recording. They’re fucking phenomenal and I love Metal Kombat For The Mortal Man.

I love the people with the “underground” Metal lists. This somehow makes you more legit. ahahahhaha

These are the same dudes who live with their parents at 28 and go “let’s go back to my house” to there friends.

Classic.

ziltoid, at some point could you inform as as to what you actually DO like for a change, rather then just writing semi snarky disses that don’t even say why these bands are shit?

I agree with lkgf09. at least the LOG part.

What’s with you people and Daath? The new album is pretty blah.

For the most part the list looks good. not too many that i’ve heard and disagree with. at least with being kick ass. maybe not tops.

still missing Kylesa and Clutch. Boo.

They remind me of Edge of Sanity quite a bit, which is good
