There was an immense amount of good music this year, I do believe we have entered a new golden age of heavy metal. If you didn't find something you're into this year, well you must be really damn picky, or you just weren't interested in looking. Anyway, here are my top 100 albums of the year. Even this wasn't easy. I would have added Bandcamp links but this took all the energy for this I have left. Hope you check these out and let me know if you find your next favorite band! Also, I know this isn't a traditional list format, but it's how I could make sense of all this stuff.
