2004 was a another good year, especially for my favorite genres Symphonic metal and power metal, even if it wasn't the strongest overall year for metal the 2000's started pretty slowly for metal, but 2004 was a fantastic year for other music genres

1. Madvillainy
By Madvillain (Abstract Hip Hop, Jazz Rap, Experimental Hip Hop)



2. Franz Ferdinand
By Franz Ferdinand (Indie Rock, Post-Punk Revival)



3. American Idiot
By Green Day (Pop Punk, Pop Rock, Rock Opera)



4. Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge
By My Chemical Romance (Emo rock, Pop Punk)



5. MM..FOOD

Nice list.
You seem to really like power metal, so I'll leave some mandatory pm albums from 2004.

Jag Panzer - Casting the Stones
Hibria - Defying the Rules
Manticora - 8 Deadly Sins
Persuader - Evolution Purgatory
Iron Savior - Battering Ram
Domine - Emperor of the Black Runes

Nice list, yah power metal is my favorite genera maybe next to Symphonic metal, I think I cloud have done a top 20 power metal albums of 2004 if I wanted, for me the 00's ware the golden age of Power metal.
