The best Metal album America has produced in twenty years, and the best produced by the world in this decade. Lyrically it covers every part of identifiable human life and emotion, and can serve as a guide as powerful (or more) than The Bible. Cameron Heacock is this generations’ best pure vocalist, the intruments put distinct tastes into the mouths of the lsitener by song, their live performances even surpass their record sound. This is what should be the best band in the world, and this is the record that says so.

Wrath – Lamb Of God
Hate Crew Death Roll – Children Of Bodom

Death Magnetic is a terrible album! how could it possibly be one of the albums of the decade!
Carcass – Swansong – a huge influence for the melodic death metal scene, and metal scene in general. It had the energy, groove, riffs and solos that any good album of this kind should have.
At the Gates – Slaughter of the Soul – Any metalcore band that plays in this moment have been influenced by this pice of art. Why? If you don’t know, you have lived ’till now under a rock.
In Flames – A Sense of Purpose – One of the best albums to date by In Flames. An album that shows how a band can reinvent itself and kick ass!
Subscribe – Stuck Progress to Moon – Second studio album released by the hungarian act Subscribe. A band and a record that should be noted and listened by most of th american modern bands who think that the music that is played by them kicks ass. Take a listen to this record and you will understand how things should be made. Mathcore, progressive metal, jazz, heavy metal, funk and all the things you need to make a modern record that really rocks!
lololol brokeNYCDE and Bring Me The Horizon have teh besterest albums EVAR coz they combine the worst parts of metal with crap genres no-one else lieks and its so totally shit.
