Don't do Spotify, I use Amazon Music, here's their metal top 10 for those who care; 1. Gojira, Marina Viotti, Victor Le Masne - Mea Culpa (Ah! Ça ira!) 2. Knocked Loose, Poppy - Suffocate 3. Architects - Seeing Red 4. Spiritbox - Soft Spine 5. Bring Me The Horizon, AURORA - liMOusIne 6. Falling In Reverse, Tech N9ne, Alex Terrible - Ronald 7. Bad Omens, HEALTH, SWARM - THE DRAIN 8. In Hearts Wake, Winston McCall - The Flood 9. From Ashes To New, Against The Current, Chrissy Costanza - Barely Breathing 10. Electric Callboy, BABYMETAL - RATATATA
Me impresiona que no viéramos a All That Remains, As i lay Dying u otras bandas que sí se consideran del género...porque en esa lista de spoty-caca habían muchos que sobraban y que sonaban como bandas de soft rock y de pop. Edit: me legra ver que Jinjer, Spiritbox y otras bandas más underground que ell@s tomen lugar en los tops.
Trash Boat's previous album was awesome! I saw them warming up for Enter Shikari two years ago and they were a huge surprise for me. Had so much fun seeing them live and I didn't even care for them that much until then. And also Poppy having 3 out of the top 11 songs is crazy. She had a great year!
Fixation is great, one of the best albums of 2024, but he should have chosen Random Acts of Violence for a "heavy list" even though Blue Skies is a better song. Also, Poppy's song should have been They're All Around Us with that Cowaaaard!!! intro.
Sleep Theory is the band that I thought Issues would have become, a metal band at heart but could easily transcend the genre with their boy band singer. The biggest difference is Sleep Theory succeeded this with their very first song they ever released while Issues couldn't do it after 3 full albums. I think Issues had a ton of issues within the band but they definitely laid the footprint for Sleep Theory to swoop in and become a heavy hitter in a very short time.
6:30 being at the top is pretty amazing, easily one of the best songs of the year aside with Necessary Evil and Chaotic for sure 🔥 Memphis May Fire did an amazing year with every single they release, I'm excited to hear the whole thing in March :"D
We need Poppy, polaris, Emma Jean, mother may I, dream catcher, ankor, future palaces, electric callboy, baby metal, savage hands, conquer divide, lauren babic, crazy 88, lisa, bad seed rising.....
While I'm Glad Chat Pile was on there, I don't think the song should've been masc. I would've gone with I am dog now, Funny man, Tape, New World or No way out. I mean I get masc was their biggest song off that album and it's decent, but there are WAY better choices. If they had chosen a more interesting song it might've been actually included in this video. Maybe. Probably not. I just want more eyes on Chat Pile, ok?
I feel your pain man, the picks are always just popular, not best. SeeYouSpaceCowboy released way better songs than chewing the scenery, as did imminence with the black and others I can’t think of rn
Alcest's Les chants de l'aurore is a newer shoegaze album you might like. Not exactly Nu Gaze though. Way on the other side, if you're open minded, listen to Xoth's Exogalactic. Came out last year but, I've not found a better album than it this year. They call themselves cosmic death metal. Very melodic, blackened, thrashy and kind of tech-death. Overall, just awesome.
@@Sweet-Tooth31 I listen to some Blackgaze as well like: Deafheaven, Agalloch, Lantlos, Alcest, Sadness and Harakiri For The Sky...but thanks for recommendations
Spotify was like "Ok, this guy Nik Nocturnal does this metal awards thing, let's just copy his picks and put them in our best metal playlist. Let's add some other songs tho, so no one notices"
I'm so glad you do this because I don't. I don't listen to any Spotify playlists EVER, I listen to full albums when I can but I do have my playlists for singles such as you, Stevie T., Anthony Vincent, Jared Dines, Oni, etc. If I'm being honest it seems actual albums are a thing of the past with the exception of Liliac, I've purchased all their vinyl. They have CD's too but they don't really do much for me, I prefer vinyl...I'm seriously old school leave me alone!!! lol If everyone made actual vinyl albums I'd be buying them SO DO IT!!!! Instead I'm buying t-shirts and other merchandise that I'm more than proud to wear don't get me wrong I'd still love to have more new vinyl in my collection as well. I don't have an actual stereo system to listen to them on but unless a major catastrophe happened (let's pray it doesn't) they have no chance of getting scratched or ruined. I just keep listening to them on Spotify BUT having a physical record to add to my collection would be awesome too. I don't drink either but if you were to see how much wine and other alcohol I have you'd think I'm an actual alcoholic!!! I can't say none of it's open, a couple of bottles but I didn't drink it my boys did and yes, they ARE of the drinking age just to clarify. I buy it for the bottle, the packaging or the label. Being I work at a liquor store I thought I'd be safe from spending on stuff I don't really need but nope, in some cases it's just more expensive!!!! lol Sorry, I got a bit off topic but you get my point.
I feel like wrapped only halfway pays attention because i really havent listened to much Avenged Sevenfold this past year and they had them as my number 5 artist and i know ive listened to whitechapel alot and only song that made it in my top 5 from them was a bloodsoaked symphony. I think they're ai may be broken. Lol
No Aborted, no Gatecreeper, no Opeth, no Borknagar? Alr, this list is dogshit, absolutely disgusting worse than ever. AT LEAST we had something from Blood incantation
Nik needs to take one of his followers' playlists and go through it like a personality assessment.
I second this 👍
This would be incredible.
I volunteer to get roasted
I volunteer as tribute!
Bruh I'd for SURE submit for this
Take a shot everytime Nik says "-core."
R.I.P.
dead
Deceased
So long liver
I was completely wasted after 1 minute...
Orbit Culture needs more attention
True, but they haven't droped new music this year tho.
Considering they are now with century media the next album is going to be huge
Orbit Culture should have at least 2 songs in that list. Disappointing
I don’t get the hype. They’re so generic.
Hell yeah they do.
So, Poppy is there 3 times in the top 15. Good year for her lol

Alright!!👍
Happy Holidays! awright!
EYY Geebz is here!? Hope you are having a good Holiday season.
Geeeeeebz!
Happy holidays Geebz! Hope all is well!

I love The Last Will and Testament, but I must say that §2 or §4 would be MUCH better picks for this list

10. Electric Callboy, BABYMETAL - RATATATA
Top 5 looks really good, except for Seeing Red. It's great song but it was released in 2023. But I love the song so I'm happy it's so high.
Limousine is crazy in top 5, I’d do DARKSIDE or statues
That's a much better top 10 for me, basically my TH-cam music rotation 👌
Solid list, but it's mainly a breakdown of biggest names/events, almost as if you sorted by the views and made a list.
@@GoranAbraxasI mean... they're big for a reason.
A lowkey slept on metal band that releases a kickass album this year was EVERGREY. A band that tank likes a lot
YESSSSS they drop banger after banger and get slept on so much.
Evergrey is so damn good.
After the 3rd Junt my child was terrified.
The Paula clap at the end is so wholesome! Damn goals bro 🤘
Happy to see Poppy succeed
How many songs did Poppy have in the list, 3?
@@iPivo yup and all in the top 11.
Three times poppy included and totally earned. awesome list actually
When are we getting a reaction to Bloodywood/BabyMetal Bekhauf?
SAME
Based on this video he said he had already seen/heard it. If he recorded a reaction, I don't know.
Yoo Bloodywood on the list!
2:40 Hanabie on the list? Colour me confused but happy
Lowkey banger list, but WHERE'S BOUNDARIES?? 💀
Onb
they are easily erased
Boundaries is the Black Myth Wukong of metalcore, for some reason mfs on TH-cam keep ignoring them
The Boundaries disrespect is INSANE
Only issue I have is no Shadow Of Intent, Flying the Black Flag was insane

Still missing Currents, Invent Animate, Silent Planet to be fair
Currents didn't release anything this year..
@@KennonRude I realize that now, I got mixed up with the release of the death we seek lmao
@@PsychosAsylumxyeah, that record was released in May 2023. It was my runner-up for AOTY that year behind Sleep Token.

Justice for boundaries, like moths to flames, and Allt.
That person calling limousine - bmth a moodring rip off had me dyinggg
As a Judas Priest fan, Panic Attack is a highlight for me
The twin guitarsolo in Gates of Hell is my metal highlight of the year
yeah it kinda annoyed me seeing his chat shit on JP, but what can you really expect from them
@@JLTS76 Yea Judas Priest doesnt really get any respect in deathcore/metalcore community. Even tho its an influence to half of their influences.

late at night, eating spaghetti and watching nik, best friday possible

1: the plot in you: don't look away
Isn't Trash Boat a thing from the Regular Show?
Ya I always figured it was a reference to that episode where rigby legally changes his name to trash boat

suffocate fucks but I highkey prefer blinding faith. one of the best metal songs of the decade that.
feliz natal nik
Let's try
YOM MA LOK from Whispers
🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭👹👹👹
YEET!!! this EP is dope
100% Bangkok EVILCORE
Let's put Thailand hardcore
On da map again
Spotify actually cooking for once 🔥
Nik you MUST check out "the anguished throne" by Worm Shepherd, you just HAVE TO
Damn thats a solid playlist i definitely have to check some of the bands in here
Same I can't listen to Suffocate without the Breee
Needs more kanonenfieber
Pop? ❌ No!! Poppy? ✅ Yessss! 🤭😁
Spotify was like "Ok, this guy Nik Nocturnal does this metal awards thing, let's just copy his picks and put them in our best metal playlist. Let's add some other songs tho, so no one notices"
I saw “Are You Ready Now” and thought it said “Are You Ready” and wanted to tip my joint to the man that put Creed on the list 😂. Oh well.
Actually a good list from Spotify. I wish Hatred from Paleface Swiss was higher on the list though such a good band! \m/
Actual good picks!!
Glad to see poppy. Thanks Nik this was fun to hear your take. Fun Metal things 🖤
Bruh, did Spotify secretly hire Nik for playlist? He was giving himself a lot of props and I don't trust Spotify to be that good 😂
Wow I added a lot of these to my playlist

Is Nik going to post his Spotify wrapped on YT?
the only thing i dont like about this playlist is the fact that dont look away is so criminally lowm imo it should be AT LEAST in top 10
Could've had some allt and boundaries in here, pretty decent list aside from that though
Being a hardcore fan I was slightly disappointed that he didn’t include speeds song but love the video anyway!!!!!
bro skipped out on chat pile too speed and chat pile are the only different bands in this list that are not linkin park core lol
Oooi Nik, I'm so early, another spoopoofoo vid yeyyy
Blood Incantation put out a monster release this year!
No Bury Tomorrow - Villain Arc on the list?!?!? It's top 10 for sure
lowkey bro skipped out chat pile and speed dude does not fw anything thats not octanecore-esque music
We listened to every song on the playlist. This is a 1 hr stream compiled into 8 minutes lol
@ bro its more free content, take advantage of it lowkey!!!!
Glad to see Blood Incantation up there in the top 3. It's my AOTY hands down.
1:08 nah not baddie core, NU METAL
I can't believe we are calling that nu metal. Korn is Nu metal

Plot twist, Spotify used Nik’s nominees for the whole playlist
Blood Incantations album was 40 minutes of mindfuck
Editor took notes from Nik’s awards
The best pick was L'Envol - Alcest
Not including Like Moths To Flames on the playlist is an actual crime
Nik secretly worked on this playlist and is playing us all. Lol
Tbh throught 2023 and 24 indie rock has cooked up better stuff then majority of anything metal
Lorna shore?
So what I’m hearing is… there was no reason to have the Nic Nocturnal Awards. Sad.
Over the garden wall by like moths to flames should be on there
Skips over my favorite song of the year to the flowers wws 😢😢
