Epic Melodic Metal Albums (8. 1. 2013)
This list represents my for sure subjective feeling of what to call "epic" in terms of metal. It is worth considering that I am not a big fan of power metal... So the list is rather based on melodic death/black variations.
I will for sure add more albums as soon as they appear on the scene (and I find them impressive enough). If you have suggestions, please share with me (and the others)! |
1.
Atoma - Skylight | |
2.
Wintersun - Time I | |
3.
Wintersun - Wintersun | |
4.
Brymir - Breathe Fire to the Sun | |
5.
Moonsorrow - Varjoina Kuljemme Kuolleiden Maassa |

Mechка's Everevolving List Of '12 Selections
Note; Anything I rate lower than 8 I deem underwhelming. Sure, I might even acknowledge some of them as being rather enjoyble, but considering the "bigger picture of things", I find them unsatisfactory (in varying degrees, depending on their rating).
Partially ordered (the ones with descriptions). The rest are arranged alphabetically. |
1.
Sybreed - God Is An Automaton | |
2.
Gorod - A Perfect Absolution | |
3.
The Faceless - Autotheism | |
4.
Ihsahn - Eremita | |
5.
Saturnus - Saturn In Ascension |

2012 Dreamy Albums Milena Considers A 7.5+ (update 26.12)
Other good lists with some melodic metal in them:
strade's - R'Vannith's - Unhealer's - Lkoturnindrin's
Will only add 7.5+ releases, so this won't be a gargantuan list... last year saw maybe forty or so releases I thought of as 7.5+'s, a lot of them rated only at the end of the year, and some not rated at all due to the extensiveness of pre-MSA listening sessions... if you want to stalk my "bad" ratings, they're all in my album votes. |
1.
Enochian Theory - Life... And All It Entails | |
2.
Dissona - Dissona | |
3.
Big Big Train - English Electric 1 | |
4.
Headspace - I Am Anonymous | |
5.
Beyond The Bridge - The Old Man And The Spirit |

I'm (sorta) back. *The Finishing Touches* OKAY, so obviously not as much stuff from the last half of the year as the first. Sorry guys, but that first six months nearly killed me.  Some stuff as a result will be missing, but major stuff not present is stuff I probably didn't care for. Alrighty then, enough with the "stuff"... |

Bound by Entrails - The Stars Bode You Farewell | |
