Dear Banger, please never change. You guys are doing so great and it's awesome to see a nice produced metal channel that reviews actual metal from all genres and places. Love you guys!
I only found Revocation this year due to getting into Rivers of Nihil, and I’m loving the new album. Both bands go hard live too!! Now off to get some Portal and Horrendous in my life. I think I echo most people’s sentiments in hoping you guys can carry on doing this, and in this style. All great reviewers, you guys all know what you’re talking about and seem to really thrive on talking about new music. It makes it more enjoyable to watch when we know you’re enjoying yourselves!! Keep it up
Hey friends... A reminder that these are records chosen by YOU! In a poll of the albums from 2018 that we missed reviewing. [Usually because they came out the same week as another record we wanted or needed to cover.] So if you don't like the Top 5, get subscribed to the channel so you don't miss the "call for votes" videos.
Sometimes it's the harsh reality that the super underground bands just aren't gonna get the vote. This is a fair, quality list.... except one pick, but that's just my own taste. I would personally like to see this done twice a year, or even a "vote your album" quarterly edition.
@@theakkusor this is the second one of those, I think Brad and Sarah did the first one. But I agree. Generally everyone seems to want more content. Cause this channel is awesome. Hence the patrion campaign
@Chemical Javed Yeah like damn dude. They also missed JOHN LENNON - THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION. It's 6 cd's of the finest face melting riffs and brutality...... Come on bruh, they can't get everything! Relax!
Thanks for doing this, guys. In times when people are saying that the album is dying, you're going in depth into this challenging music and bringing it to us, much appreciated, I learned about a lot of good shit from here. Rock on!

Hadn't heard of Alkaloid prior to this video. Checked them out and loved them. I have found more good metal via your videos than any other method. Thanks a million!
That's why i love Banger. When i think "Metal" i think of thrash, doom, death metal and grindcore. The mainstream seems to think the only metal bands that exist are Slipknot and Avenged Sevenfold. Well i wouldn't call Avenged Sevenfold metal but that's how clueless most normies are.
Good set of albums! My 5 would have to be: **Beyond Creation for a great Death metal album with intermixed tech/prog/melodic elements. Epic without being cheesy. I keep wavering between this and Alkaloid for the style. **Somali Yacht Club: What a well written album. The melodies are soaring and picks up elements of Stoner, Prog, and Post metal/rock. **Drudkh: What a return to form after being mediocre on more recent releases. Retains their newer production style but goes back a little more towards their older style of Atmoblack. **Necrophobic for strong AF melodic black Dissection worship. Incredibly catchy with loads of energy. While Uada gets the hype this one is the clear winner for the style. **Urfaust for some amazing psychedelic droning Black/Doom. Simultaneuosly heavy and listenable. Simply trance invoking. My AOTY.

Best quality reviews I’ve ever seen put together. From the production to knowledge you guys present great insight to records from the entire genre. Please keep it up. Blake start a standup career or podcast immediately
For me, Portal Ion was easily the AOTY, listening to this album is more of an experience than a listen, emerging then disappearing into the fog of atmosphere the bookends it really helps your brain to process the alien compositions, and mind bending guitar work. And 'cleaning' up there sound was the equivalent to turning the lights on in the basement just to realise the monster is real, and far more terrifying than you could have conceived. 10/10
@@user-pq3hg7dk9h Just my opinion, I can completely understand why people wouldn't like/ get into them but you can at least appreciate their unique approach to music/ compositions.
Liked the dynamic between Dylan and Blayne. Good work. Some quite cool tips on this list for me . Will defenitly give Portal and Horrendous some listening. Cheers from Sweden!
Portal reminds me of the Evil Within games too. They're perfect to listen to while reading a Titus Crow story or any cosmic horror story. Totally worked with Robert W. Chamber's King in Yellow.
It's absolutely tragic that such a great record that is The Crown's "Cobra Speed Venom", which by the way dropped in FEBRUARY, will remain forgotten. Such a beast comeback album by a legendary thrash-melodeath band.
Good choice, they were like the first band to blend Swedish melodeath, classic death metal, and a Motorhead/NWOBHM vibe... very unique stuff, especially for the turn of the millenium!
elvisman2000 Didn’t even know they a new one out. Just got it. I find out about more bands in the comment section of angry metal guy and the comment section on Banger than the reviews themselves.
That 3 album run from Hell is Here to Crowned in Terror was insane! Death Race King being the best of course! Everything since then while ok to good is still disappointing to me, almost like they lost the fire.
Love all the Banger talent. Each reviewer has a unique strength that serves the channel well. I also really enjoy these team-ups. Blayne and Dylan really make for a good balancing of the scales. Thought for 2019: how about a full-squad Banger Voltron? Too unwieldy? Either way...glad to support the channel. Thanks for the great content. Cheers! \m/
Love this countdown. Glad to see High on Fire was one of the chosen. Another band I think should have been reviewed is " Jinjer " , their album " King of Everything " has done very well and their tours with Arch Enemy and Cradle of Filth have been epic , plus almost every reaction UA-cam channel has reviewed and went nuts over Tatianna's vocals . They should get a mention for sure.
I discovered Horrendous this year from BangerTV, I revisit the new album Idol so much that I even picked up a physical copy. It really is an enjoyable album.
Portal, Horrendous and Revocation were exactly what I wanted to see!! Such a fucking awesome and diverse year for Death Metal! Would've loved to see Skeletal Remains on here too, but I guess it would've been too Death heavy, so I'm still stoked over these reviews
I've never heard Portals until now, but just from that clip yall played, I dig it. Definitely going to give that album a full listen to so I can form a better opinion on them. I like weird so I'll see how I like it. Yall mentioned Revocation. They're one of those bands I love to see live, but have a hard time just sitting down and listening to an album front to back. Could just be me, but again I love seeing them live.
By the way, did you guys hear Ghastly and Chapel of Disease? Ghastly's on 20 Buck Spins and CoD has been on various labels, but their latest on Van Records is fucking stellar!
Love High on Fire, like Portal, don't quite get the other three. I hope Banger fans will like more Black/Doom metal works next time, great review as always guys
Loved it! I'd wished you guys reviewed the new album my MOL, "JØRD". But still, excellent choices! Would love Sylvaine's "Atoms Aligned, Coming Undone", as well.
They're on tour with Archspire and Rivers of Nihil in Europe. I saw their first show, it was really good. So check out the dates, fellow Europeans, this line up is awesome
Im in he same boat, AOTY for me too. It's been a longtime since I enjoyed EVERY song on an album. And the fact that some atmosphere/solo sound A LOT like Martyr to my ear (Dan Mongrain kick ass) that a huge plus in my heart
I was really surprised by The Agony Scene’s return this year....it’s good to hear some metalcore that has a lot of aggression and energy! Also the new Psycroptic is fucking incredible.
Speaking of Amorphis' song "The Bee". Amorphis has always been heavily influenced by Finnish mythology and a bee has a very important role in the Finnish national Epic, Kalevala.
Queen of Time is the AOTY hands down. Their sound keeps expanding and they keep defying the law of diminishing records. A masterpiece, pure and simple. Also, Horrendous has the best production in the Death Metal biz. And I really like Revocation as a band, but they seem to be running into place, this record wasn’t very memorable at all.
As well as Kriegsmaschine, Funeral Mist, Monstrosity, Mare, Lik, Outre, Drawn and Quartered, Clandestine Blaze, Ripped to Shreds... Of these I'd say the first 3 (along with UADA) are massive oversights.
Uada is great but I like Necrophobic so much more for the Dissection worship sound. To be fair Necrophobic has a slightly thicker, more death metal informed style, but worth a shot if you like Uada.
@@MrDraehlAgreed the new Necrophobic is amazing! Mark of the necrogram is one of the best albums of the year. Great year for metal. New Deathhammer, Immortal, and Cultes des Ghouls were solid too.

Liked the dynamic between Dylan and Blayne. Good work.
Some quite cool tips on this list for me . Will defenitly give Portal and Horrendous some listening. Cheers from Sweden!

It's kinda cool to see so many album covers from artists that were obviously inspired by the one and only Pushead!

Super Mario they did another “What We Missed” video earlier this year where they included Tribulation, don’t worry.
Two of my top three this year were in this list ( Amorphis, Horrendous). I'm pretty happy with this video.
The font analogy is so accurate lol
Really happy Alkaloid got a mention at the end, phenomenal album!
Warrel Dane - Shadow Work deserved to be mentioned, even if only for historical reasons.
Voices-frightened. Peter Benjamin and David Gray from Akercocke. A must listen.
These two work so well together
I was really surprised by The Agony Scene’s return this year....it’s good to hear some metalcore that has a lot of aggression and energy! Also the new Psycroptic is fucking incredible.
Speaking of Amorphis' song "The Bee". Amorphis has always been heavily influenced by Finnish mythology and a bee has a very important role in the Finnish national Epic, Kalevala.
Ghost Ship Octavius - Delirium is an incredible prog metal release of 2018. It's an absolute must have for any heavy music prog metal fan.
Your funny as hell, Blayne! Your delivery and timing is improving !
I feel like I’m always ready to throw five skulls at almost every new metal record just for existing. “THANK YOU FOR MAKING NEW METAL MUSIC!!!!”
Glad you guys talked about amorphis.
Queen of Time is the AOTY hands down. Their sound keeps expanding and they keep defying the law of diminishing records. A masterpiece, pure and simple.
Also, Horrendous has the best production in the Death Metal biz. And I really like Revocation as a band, but they seem to be running into place, this record wasn’t very memorable at all.
Our Raw Heart is definitely album of the year
I was expecting to see ingested. Gotta love Blayne.

Aaaand new Slidhr, Horna, Sargeist, I mean the list goes on, this year has been monumental.

Seen high on fire in my home town at a small club was incredible
Need to have Blayne and Dylan together more often.
I love how I'm watching this and playing guitar
The ocean’s new album is a masterpiece
Just got into ultra violence their up and coming and just fantastic
You guys! I want a cooking segment with you both because Blayne would be high and I think you'd both look good in chef's hats!
I love Portal, extreme avant-garde death metal
Hate Eternal was a definite AOTY contender. But Revocation is just better, glad one of the two got picked
You guys should review Cenotaph Obscure by Obliteration
Jepp, and the last Aura Noir.
Within a World Forgotten by Infernal Coil definitely deserves props for a great album - sick record!
Dylan and Blayne sitting side by side is like a Before\After photo but I'm not sure which is which.
