Thanks - great list there! I really liked the Tribulation actually. That could have made my list on another day.

Iotunn and Opeth were in my list. Also loved Alcest, Blood Incantation, Thy Catafalque..

@Hellenicheavymetal loved the Alcest too! Blood Incantation was great - I just thought it would be on a lot of other lists. Thanks for checking out the video 👍

I would have liked it if you had had nominated some of the best tracks from each album. It makes them easier to check out.
@thegreenman4925Күн бұрын
Thanks for the feedback. I do like to vary what I say about each album a little so as not to be too repetitive.
@garygillam8226Күн бұрын
@ I understand but I don’t think naming your favourite tracks on an album really qualifies as repetitive. Most album reviewers do it . Maybe if you leave a link to any album reviews so we can check them out ?

We share the same top 2. Didn't gel with them at first but they just grew on me so much. Thats a nice list you have. My top 5 also includes Judas Priest, Nemophila and Kanonfeiber. Other albums i really liked in no order... Flotsam and Jetsam Lutharo Infected Rain Kittie 200 Stab Wounds Hiraes Dark Tranquillity Poppy The Warning Billie Eilish Rotting Christ Necrowretch Fleshgod Apocalypse Fave EPs: Lovebites Hanabie

So many good picks here. I got to check out some of these, which I haven't listened to so far. I have been listening to Poppy for several years now, irregularly. Never thought I would see her on this channel, but this new album went into heavier direction. Wonder if she is going to do another big pivot with the next one.

Thanks dude! I kind of hope she stays metal/metalcore but I still appreciate her versatility

A very polished video. You seem to be speaking with a lot more confidence lately. Cannot say that I have heard of many of these albums but I am sure many will be appearing on other peoples best of 2024 lists. My real surprise ( apart from the 80s pop albums) was that David Gilmour made it. Whilst technically very good I did find the album not much better than good background music.
