I bought so many albums of 2024. Here is a top 8 01: Neon Nightmare - Faded Dream 02 Iotunn - Kinship 03: Cistvaen - At lights demise 04: Blazing Eternity - A certain end of everything 05: Blaze of Perdition - Upharsin 06: Hountologist: Hollow 07: In Vain - Solemn 08: Austere - Beneth the Threshold. And so many others. I havent even heard Opeths latest yet😮
Nice picks. I wouldn't pick any of them into my Top 40, but I still count them as respectable. They nicely represent your taste in music with the only real surprises being Nile and Hulder. As there were simply too many too good records this year I am curious what comes at higher places. Your lists are always an inspiration, keep it up!
Never knew there was a band doing darksouls stuff, that album cover is the firelink shrine after the massive crow drops you off after leaving the undead asylum. Firelink shrine in game has a beautiful mournful little track as its theme i often watch the video of the firelink shrine bonfire (search TH-cam) to relax especially early on a winter morning before the sun has come up with a hot drink.
My AOTY 2024 (40-31) 40. Ghostheart Nebula - Blackshift 39. Oceans Of Slumber - Where Gods Fear To Speak 38. Octoploid - Beyond The Aeons 37. Witnesses - Joy 36. Sunburst - Manifesto 35. The Moor - Ombra 34. DGM - Endless 33. Myrath - Karma 32. Charlotte Wessels - The Obsession 31. Vanden Plas - The Empyrean Equation Of The Long Lost Things
Don't feel dumb! The sheer amount of metal being released on a weekly basis is insane and it's impossible to keep up with it all! I'm glad you found them now though!
@@theheavymetaljournal Hah very true, very true. It can be very difficult to know EVERY release of the year / listen to them all. I'm glad you helped me find them too! Looking forward to the rest of the list!
My top 10 (no particular order): Paula Teles - Desencanto Vola - Friend of a Phantom Imminence - The Black Poppy - Negative Spaces Galera - Coma Fleshgod Apocalypse - Opera Michael Schenker - My Years with UFO Moon Healer - Job for a Cowboy Exocrine - Legend Iotunn - Kinship
31. A Wake in Providence - i write to you, my darling decay 32. Lifesick - love by none hated by all 33. Botanist - palebotany 34. Noxis - violence inherent in the system 35. Five The Hierophant - apeiron 36. Cognitive - abhorrence 37. Vorga - Beyond the Palest Star 38. Midas Fall - cold waves divide us 39. Wormed - omegon 40. Alcest - les chants de l’aurore
I don't think Ophidian Memory's album is that good and I think In Vain could be a little higher but good start of the list, honestly. Waiting for the rest, keep it metal!
The best black metal album of the year probably won't get many listens because they are adjacent to the naughty list. Old Leshy - Na skraju przepaści And it's not even close. (th-cam.com/video/3mfd3qKXdtM/w-d-xo.html)

Thanks for turning me on to OPHIDIAN MEMORY. Missed that one. Love it.
Cool list Linds - some overlap with my list and some stuff I really need to check out!
A 15-minute video that takes me hours to get through as I have to listen to everything. How can I not? So much good stuff.
Fantastics bands hail from Portugal 🤟
Subbed - Great video and a lot of great choices 👍
Great surprise with Upon Stone - Dead Mother Moon, such lovely old Gothenburg sound!
Great start, Lindsay! 🤘

40? I can't even pick 5 albums that I've liked this year. That being said Wintersun is easily number 1 for me
😂 i have 60
It seems that you only heard 1 album this year😂😂😂😂
I've listened to over 400 and the majority were really good to great. Metal is absolutely fantastic the last few years
You must be incredibly hard to please
