The Best Metal Albums* From A To # (H)

This list is meant to be an extensive, but by no means exhaustive, collection of the greatest (modern) metal albums and eps. Running the gamut from avant-garde to trve norweigan black metal. *As someone who is young in age, my tastes tend to revolve around the period of the 80s to the present.* Although certain metal albums from before will certainly be featured, the period of the 60s-70s will be under-represented. I refer you to this excellent list to gain a better appreciation for some of the best metal from that period: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/freis/martin_popoffs_the_top_500_heavy_metal_albums_of_all_time/

1.Haar - The Wayward Ceremony
2.Hacride - Lazarus
3.Hades - The Dawn Of The Dying Sun
4.Hænesy - Garabontzia
5.Hæthen - Shaped By Aeolian Winds

2.Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters
