Pretty self explanatory. Although I usually forget to keep these kinds of lists up all year so we'll see if I keep this one up all year or forget about this one too after a couple months...

*This list is not in order of preference, just the order in which I add the albums so as to make it easy to identify the most recently added albums.

1.Abyssal - Novit Enim Dominus Qui Sunt Eius

2.Amiensus - Restoration

3.Lascaille's Shroud - Interval 01: Parallel Infinities - The Inner Universe

4.Katalepsy - Autopsychosis

5.Octopus - Into The Void Of Fear

That's the 2013 gnirpz's essentials in order, following the releases along the year. Every ranking should be based on production quality, originality, musical technicality and specs like that.

Unfortunatelly, mine is based on headbanging, taste of beer, air guitar and air drum solos.

2013 feelings, form best to worst

Note: Tool intentionally ommitted because they don't consider themselves metal. Otherwise you'd see their first 4 albums in top 25.

3.Opeth - Blackwater Park

Here is my suggestion concerning Russian extreme metal bands that are worth listening to. It's mostly black and death metal stuff with some additions of post-black and blackened crust. The bands are listed in alphabetical order. I'm gonna add more nameworthy albums once I find any. Suggestions are welcome in comments, except NSBM and racist bands, and bands that play the sort of parody metal (Infornal Fuckъ, Uratsakidogi, and alike).

1.Accidental Death Benefit - Венец Творения Природы

2.Amber Tears - Revelations Of Renounced

3.Argishrot - Plague From Parallel Worlds

4.Bitter Loss - Oblivion In Ceremonial Void

5.Buicide - Escaping From Yourself

So it is have been 3 year without few days since my last update ( it took me a while ),
And this top 100 prove's that we like to look into new genres or move back to 70' and yearly 80' for something easier to listen to. For me it was ambient/nefolk, some heavy metal and hardrock but in the end mostly heavy shit, my favourite death metal also black, trash metal and grind.

1.Skuggsjá - A Piece For Mind & Mirror

2.Vader - Welcome To The Morbid Reich

3.Aborted - The Necrotic Manifesto

4.Aborted - Global Flatline
