    In my opinion, the PsychoSynner or Psychosexual or whatever tf albums are the worst albums of 2022. Probably the worst albums in general. They’re boring, irritating and overall pretty stupid but the worst part about one of these albums and the worst part about PsychoSexual in general is they ripped off Killing In The Name Of so blatantly that I’m waiting for RATM to sue them for plagiarism.

    I found "Requiem" to be just okay. "The Nothing" was just this huge black hole of explosive grief and despair, they couldn't possibly have followed up with more of the same. This was a healing album for them, and I respect that, even if it didn't leave me feeling anything special.
    As for MiW, I really enjoyed that album, and it's on my best list for one simple reason: Catharsis. Yes, it's cheesy. Yes, it's cringe. But damn does it not strike a chord with me. Then again, I love Power Metal, so I love albums that are cheesy and somewhat cringe. Every song on the album had staying power for me, and considering all the shit that litters the modern political landscape, it feels good to have an album that's a sincere expression of how it feels being surrounded by that.
    My worst album of the year is "Seventh Rum of a Seventh Rum" by Alestorm. I like Alestorm, and as I said, I like stuff that's cheesy and fun. I liked the song P.A.R.T.Y. But everything else on the album felt like filler. They literally did a remix of Tortuga which was *less* interesting and *less* catchy than the original. I hate that album because it's lazy, to the point where they've said "our audience doesn't give a shit, so why should we?"
    To quote Billy Maddison (the film, not the character): "Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul."
    Other than that, great video :).

    My worst of the year is expanded past metal, as while I listened to a LOT of music this year (663 albums according to Apple Music), there weren’t a whole lot of metal albums that were outright disappointing.
    Honorable mention: Ghost - Impera. It’s not that bad of a record, but it’s also not good. Quite literally the only song I wasn’t bored by was Little Sunshine, and I found Twenties to be borderline edgy.
    In no particular order:
    Kid Rock - Whatever it was called (admittedly this one made me laugh multiple times)
    MGK - Mainstream Sellout
    Psycho Sinner - both of them
    Motionless In White - Singing the Dark World or whatever it was
    And finally, Panic At the Disco - Viva Las Vengeance. This has to date my only DNF stamp. I somehow suffered to the 4th track, where Brendon and a children’s choir sang “We are the new Dead Kennedys” and I got so offended I backed out. Psycho Sinner left me mentally scarred for a bit, but I at least finished those albums. Brendon Urie sucks.

I wonder if he liked any of their other albums much or just doesn't like the band entirely. Sounds like he doesn't like their gimmick.

    No disagreement. Nice to see someone being honest about Amon Amarth. This is a band that has me confused. It's not their music that is confusing, as its simplistic, boring and sounds like Amon Amarth from all previous albums but how this band became as popular as they have. The most innovation and growth I have seen from this band isnt even from the band, it's their fans. Whoever started the Viking Ship Row Boat pit really thought outside the box and was quite clever interpreting via runes I'm sure, the interaction bands and fans share in the live setting to literally just sit down and start pretending to row up shit creek with invisible paddles.What would be more entertaining to see would be the rowers face the opposite direction to attempt a get away at sea(?)from the redundancy and boredom an Amon Amarth album or gig can bring.

They're the local classic thrash band that means the most to me. Although the last album they did in the 90s wasn't really awesome either, and the last two or three times I saw them live, they didn't quite kick my butt the way they once did -- so maybe the writing was on teh wall.

    For me the worst album of the year and my biggest dissapointment is Thornhill - Heroine. Like The Dark Pool was great, atmospheric, synths, riffs for days, drums that are creative and a singer that SOARS over the track... Heroine is so formulaic, squared, the mix is weird and the vocals are just BURIED IN MUD, and the drums are like meh... I saw a story before the release saying that "Its darker than the Dark Pool and heavier" and I was like "Ok, those are corporate buzz words but I am interested" and then the singles were from bad to worse and the album is just a mess...
    Like, literally hear a song like "Where do We go when We Die" or "Lily and the Moon" and then compare that to "Casanova" or "Hollywood" how is this the same band? What the fuck happened? We traded a great metalcore album for Muse, and not even good muse...

    I can give you a multiple albums that dose everything "scoring the end of the world", but better. Werewolf was okay. The synths where boring and uneventful and the guiter the chorus was supposed to be this dramatic thing but it it didn't live up. As synth head i was offeneded by the synths. Listed to "Undead" by D.notive or Night At the Grindhouse pt 1 and 2.
