A little list series where I list my top 20 favorite metal albums every year starting from the year I was born in.

2011 was a solid year for metal, one of the best for black metal in years, a revival of 70s stone and doom metal sound, and a strong showing of power metal.

1.Aquilus - Griseus

2.Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats - Blood Lust

3.Thy Catafalque - Rengeteg

4.Insomnium - One For Sorrow

With my best of 2022 coming soon, I thought It would be a good idea to do one for last year. It won't be that accurate since I didn't pay that much attention to new releases in 2021. But I still found enough music to make a top 50 list for the year. Don't forget that this list is completely subjective so please feel free to show your favourites in the comments

1.Iotunn - Access All Worlds

2.Simulacrum - Genesis

3.Turbulence - Frontal

4.Obscura - A Valediction

5.Between The Buried And Me - Colors II
