Great list! Nice to see Venenum so high, although I ended up not putting it in my top 15.

I can tell you don't like doom so much
Jokes aside, I like most albums on this list and Venenum indeed released a fucking death metal masterpiece

I have had doom heavier lists in the past.
I'll check them out. I discovered some great albums via your recommendations and comments throughout this year so thank you for that

Venenum, Bell Witch and Sorcerer are awesome releases this year. I couldn't stand the Pallbearer album though - a little too wankery for me. I'm looking into the other releases you put there

I have a feeling wankery isn't the right word to describe how you feel about the album. I may be mistaken though.

Both Bell Witch and Loss were a couple of years too late for me as I rarely enjoy any (non-drone) doom album these days.
also you get some complain for almost not having any black metal here.

This was an amazing black metal year for me - most of my top metal albums would be black related.

I don't mean technical wankery... i just meant they are trying to hard for a sound that doesn't work for them, and the album reeks pretentiousness. I don't like it, or the direction they're headed.

I find 98% of drone to be boring.

Simple... drone is for people who can't write a normal simple decent song. It is for people who don't know how music works.

Well that's an incredibly closed minded way to view music. 99% of people say the same thing about death metal, but I'm sure you disagree with them. Just because you can't see the value in something doesn't mean you should dismiss it entirely, and to do so is honestly pretty sad. You can't just say everything you dislike is intrinsically bad. That's ludicrous.

The most metal image of the year is clearly Marcel's list cover image. \m/
when I do my Metal 12 Pack of 2017 we'll likely share a sixer.

I'm not sure if I've ever heard a drone song that I actually enjoyed

Even though I dislike drone I agree with this.

Only album on this list, I listened to this year is "The Crowning Of The Fire King". Which is at the moment in my top 5 of 2017. Very good album.
Seems like I'll have some other albums to check out. I really need to check out Mirror Reaper, I've only heard good things about it so far.

Well Done! That's the way you scream out loud "I need attention so badly, so I will just let you know how my taste of music is the only valid one."

first of all, other people say the exact same things about those who listen to metal, including the shitty european/ symphonic power metal that you seem to like.
In addition, no one really expects you to enjoy drone, given the bands that you have listed as your favorite bands. I'm not saying that you cannot have your opinion about drone. Just that your taste is a bit different?

As Karlabos said, there is a misunderstanding. I am exactly supporting your point, but in a sarcastic way.
Being serious, I totally agree with you.

Youre not a TRoB fan are you? If I remember correctly you didnt feature any TRoB in your last decade list either. And my guess is that it was you that added Vassafor to the database but didnt listen to Malediction?
Good list and nice to see so many great bands in the bands that missed out

I do enjoy TRoB, but it just wasn't end of year list material for me, or best of previous decade. I enjoyed Malediction a lot, but just not good enough to break into the top 15 of 2017, or even top 20 for that matter.
