Pretty simple. The best to worst of BaN.
I really don't like their melodic side and prefer their industrial/ dissonant sound, so I guess this list is very predictable.

1.Blut Aus Nord - MoRT

2.Blut Aus Nord - Thematic Emanation Of Archetypal Multiplicity

3.Blut Aus Nord - The Work Which Transforms God

4.Blut Aus Nord - Disharmonium - Undreamable Abysses

5.Blut Aus Nord - What Once Was... Liber II

even though 2021's list isn't final yet (are they ever?) - I'm compelled any-damn-way to rank the 2022's I've been bamboozled with the most... most of it happens to be metal in some way or another - but, like my previous ones... non-metal albums that kick my ass (softly?) will surely be included, as well - hope it helps or is at least interesting to even one MS'er! (even if that MS'er is me hehe)
