Rolling Stone Says These are the 10 Best Metal Albums of 2019

Rolling Stone is the latest media outlet to leap into the 2019 year-end fray, and their list of The 10 Best Metal Albums of 2019 is… actually quite respectable! I mean, there’s no overlap with my year-end list, which is, of course, the only year-end list that actually matters. But there is some overlap with the MetalSucks readers’ poll list. Also, if the list helps garner even one new Moon Tooth fan, then Rolling Stone‘s entire existence is justified.

Go here to read the magazine’s explanations for their selections, and/or just check out the raw list below. You can read all of the MetalSucks staff’s individual lists here.
