1) Last year, I didn't quite finish with a strong list but I am hoping this year it will be. This time around I'm not sure if I want to do either a Top 50 or 100. It will depend on how much time I can dedicate to this. I came back listening to albums since February 29th and these are the fruits of my discoveries. Keep checking back throughout the year.

1.Towards - III

2.Kraken Duumvirate - The Stars Below, The Seas Above

3.Circle Of Ouroborus - Viimeinen Juoksu

4.Imha Tarikat - Sternenberster

5.Drown - Subaqueous
