      I was just listening to this last night and realizing that it had tons of hype but kind of fell out of the conversation a bit. Maybe it's to close (release-wise) and blends too well with Manor of Infinite Forms? I actually think it's superior to Manor. Glad I'm not the only one still thinking about Tomb Mold!

      @@unr3quited I know, and I respect Ben's decision for that. It was just the Halo theme that really made them stand out for me. That and the musicianship was amazing. I was disappointed to the lack of stand out choruses since they decided to utilize Chris voice even more on this one, and also by the lackluster orchestration. There were only a couple songs on Melancholy that really grabbed my attention in both of those aspects and everything else was just kind of meh. I had to listen to the album probably 15 times before I started to remember which songs I actually thought were worthwhile. However the production is fucking fantastic, probably one of the best mixed albums I have ever heard so that's a huge plus in my book. Still got respect for the boys.

    Evergrey- "The Atlantic". I dunno if yous covered this album during 2019 but this is a seriously good album from a seriously under-rated band. Brilliant melodic, dark, melancholic, powerful, emotive rock from Sweden. Full of deep, heavy grooves, soaring solos, memorable melodies and beautifully powered along by a huge lavish production. If this album- or this band passed ya by, I recommend you check them out as soon as you can!

    I'm just happy that metal has such diverse sounds, because my tastes are definitely not what most Banger contributors have. My top 3 were:
    1. Tool - Fear Innoculum
    2. Soen - Lotus
    3. Opeth - In Cauda Venenum (Swedish Version)

    Other than that, I'm not usually a big Death Metal guy but this year Blood Incantation, Tomb Mold (how did none of you canucks shout them out?), Cerebral Rot, Gatecreeper, Fetid, Witch Vomit, Superstition, Exhumed, and Cattle Decapitation all killed it this year. If you read that list you might notice a lot of 20 Buck Spin on there. They were on fire this year.

    2) Urn - Iron Will of Power. I love black / thrash crossover and this is by far the best I've heard since Arts of Destruction by Desaster.
    3) Schammasch - Hearts of No Light. Experimental black metal from Switzerland's finest.
    4) Rotting Christ - The Heretics. Just amazing as always with RC.

    Metal has so many release across so many subgenres it's super easy to miss great records, so lists like this (with contributors of varying tastes) are a great way to fill in the gaps - so cheers, guys! Some of my faves this year:
    The Antichrist Imperium: Vol. II Every Tongue Shall Praise Satan - Ripping blackened death, with a mournful, slightly gothy edge and serious amounts of shred.
    Curse of Denial - Coming for Your Soul - Old school, prog death metal that'll take you to the Edge of Sanity.
    Obsidian Tide: Pillars of Creation - The best Opeth album of 2019
    Idle Hands: Mana
    Bewitcher: Under the Witching Cross
    Gatecreeper - Deserted
    Inter Arma - Sulphur English
    Soen - Lotus
    Cattle Decapitation: Death Atlas
    Bonus record I had zero expectations for but which ending up blowing me away - Abigail Williams: Walk Beyond the Dark

    Thanks guys, fun video as always and there’s a few record I need to check out. I wouldn’t say there was no stand out though, it was fairly easy for me to pick favorites.
    To wit, my favorite record of 2019 was Soen - Lotus. Wonderfully crafted Prog, equal part heavy/groovy and delicate/emotionally powerful. And it blows that boring Tool record out of the water.
    Two runners up:
    Belzebubs - Pantheon of the Nightside Gods
    Aephanemer - Prokopton
    In a year where Black Metal was mostly stuck up its own “atmospheric” ass where bands forgot how to write proper songs and riffs, producing boring and pretentious records that are all texture without substance, and where Death Metal either became ever more br00tal or more technical but forgot to be catchy and focused, those two bands remind us how to write tight, fun and melodic records that are accessible and instantly lovable but still heavy and complex.

    Sarah's taste was the closest to mine, but I was sad to see no mention of Wilderun nor Disillusion by anyone. Those are both favorites of mine that have had rather long hiatuses, and they were fantastic releases. I really did dig the massive showing of traditional heavy metal and epic and trad doom this year. This trend could continue for a few more years and I would be ecstatic. This year was phenomenal, and I hope metal continues to see this resurgence in quality and quantity of worthwhile releases. What better time to get back into music discovery than these passed two years.

      The Disillusion record caught be by surprise. I didn't even know it existed until 2 months after it was out. And I've been a fan of both of the prior records for years. Its a masterpiece, and I'm listening to it almost every day.
      Long waits regardless, they're unique and masterful. It may very well be my favorite of the year. And thats saying something. Its been a great year for metal.
