These are the albums that have been burning a hole in my iPod this past year. I have really only created this list so that I can keep track of the albums I have enjoyed in 2012, but if you have any suggestions feel free it send them my way.

The albums with stars (*) next to their ratings, are albums that I am still currently listening to.

1.Godspeed You!Black Emperor - 'Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!

2.BADBADNOTGOOD - BBNG2

3.Amenra - Mass V

4.Wildernessking - The Writing Of Gods In The Sand

5.Spiritualized - Sweet Heart Sweet Light

Simple ranking of all my favorite albums. Favorite song from the album in the notes. Sure to change/expand as I learn and explore more within metal.
2023: This was starting to get too long so I split it into separate lists for albums at each ranking 10 to 7. This list will no longer be updated.
