Thank you Lazland! We certainly make the music for the fun of it but still it's a huge task for us and all bands to get the technical and boring work that creates an album release. I can actually sit and listen to what we did now, while relaxing. That and this end of year chart makes us all feel like we did good in the end.
Beware... I have recorded the guitars first 64 mins of an album featuring Blake Carpenter.

Andy thank you so much. Love to see others favourites. Very interesting.

I was very impressed with the Seven Impale album(3) and I feel it does deserve a top ten slot;

However I hope more people get an exposure to the unique post/experimental prog Metal that Devin Townsend creates. His late 2013 album Z2 album (60)I felt was an absolute masterpiece. Epic music with a sense of humor.

And of course, Kayo dot and Silver Mt Zion were sick

Yeah, those are three great albums, Ryan. And all three were responsible for me really discovering the respective bands too.

My list has also changed a bit, I guess it's something like this...

Here's mine, also with a couple of changes:

1. Ut Gret - Ancestor's Tale

Carrion Skies is the only Fen album I've not heard.

It's a solid 4 star album IMO, more agressive than Dustwalker but probably their weakest offering so far.
