Here are the albums that I have heard so far in 2013. The list will grow as I listen to more albums that come out (which doesn't seem like much compared to 2012, but I'll take what I get regardless). This list is listed from what I hear first to last (Dustwalker by Fen is the first album I heard this year), not by rank. Album ranks will be placed in each description.

1.Fen - Dustwalker

2.Riverside - Shrine Of New Generation Slaves

3.Cult Of Luna - Vertikal

4.Steven Wilson - The Raven That Refused To Sing (And Other Stories)

5.Darkthrone - The Underground Resistance

3.Jeff Loomis - Plains Of Oblivion

4.Mors Principium Est - ...And Death Said Live

5.Epica - Requiem For The Indifferent

Here is my provisional favorite-metal-albums-of-all-time-list! Enjoy!
The first 10 albums are in pretty accurate order. However, after that, it becomes harder and harder to separate the albums clearly. Thus, you can say that I enjoy album x on the list as much as the others in the interval of (x-5) to (x+5). For example album 37 would be as much enjoyed as 32, 33, 34, ..., 42, or something like that.

1.Cult Of Luna - Somewhere Along The Highway

2.Disillusion - Back To Times Of Splendor

3.Grand Alchemist - Intervening Coma-Celebration

4.Opeth - Blackwater Park

5.Dream Theater - Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory
