BOB COCK’S TOP FIFTEEN METAL ALBUMS OF 2011

Thursday, December 1st, 2011 at 9:15am by

So call it old age or what have you, but this writer fell out of ”check” with “the scene” around June or so (as far as new stuff coming out), and was also astonished to see that Uriah Heep put out another album unbeknownst to him. Plus, a lot of the albums that made my list are traditionalist or power metal. Yikes.

Then there’s the plethora of stuff in the “I’ll get to it eventually” folder of my PC that did not get got to. And then there are the ones I just plain forgot about.

But, hopefully, the important thing isn’t missing a few releases here or there in our quest to be in touch even as aging metalheads.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT! IT’S TIME FOR US TO UNVEIL OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST METAL ALBUMS OF 2011!!!

Thursday, December 1st, 2011 at 9:00am by

HOO-RAY! It is, once again, that time when (most of) the MetalSucks staff unveils their picks for the best albums of the year. This is it, folks. This is the only thing that matters in the entire universe. Not love or family or friends, not curing diseases or putting an end to war or poverty, and certainly not having your own opinion — no, the only fucking thing in the entire fucking world that matters is whether or not the staff of MetalSucks agrees with you.

GLORY, GLORY HALLELUJAH!!! How we’ve longed for this day to return!

We hope you enjoy all the lists. And remember: if you favorite album isn’t listed here, that’s because your opinion is meaningless, and, clearly, the only logical thing to do is kill yourself.

-Axl, Vince, and Everyone at MetalSucks
