[wankerness]

Because walls of text suck:

I prefer walls of text to having to reverse image search things cause the title isn't on the album cover! Only the Steven Wilson falls into this category here at least, but man, that Carcass cover was a new one to me too. Great cover.

A valid point. However, if you are not already familiar with the release/album art, are you more likely to be interested with the unfamiliar based on names or graphics?

Protest the Hero - Volition (probably my favourite release of the past three years)
Tesseract- Altered State
Bonobo - The North Borders

[ZachK]

In no particular order

Memorial - Russian Circles
Marshall Mathers LP 2 - Eminem

[chinnybob]

1. Lorde - Pure Heroine
2. High Highs - Open Season
3. Coheed and Cambria - The Afterman: Descension
4. The Joy Formidable - Wolf's Law
5. TesseracT - Altered State
6. CHVRCHES - The Bones Of What You Believe

Metal really didn't do it for me this year I suppose, maybe KsE, Dream Theater or Alter Bridge could have made my top five but none of those albums really grabbed me like these.

Nothing is even coming close to Lorde for the number one spot, such a good album!

 

[SamSam]

Maximum The Hormone - Yoshu Fukushu / 予襲復讐

Revocation - Revocation

Killswitch Engage - Disarm the Descent

Protest the Hero - Violition


Still need to hear a lot of this year's releases (Carcass ffs!)
