2017 was a weird year for me. While I did construct, update and maintain this list in 2017, I was very limited in what I was exploring and listening to. I have viewed 2017 as probably the weakest year of the 10s but I'm currently trekking back through the year's releases and finding some things I had overlooked. 2021 redux.

1.Pallbearer - Heartless

2.Almyrkvi - Umbra

3.Tyrannosorceress - Shattering Light's Creation

4.Dodecahedron - Kwintessens

5.Amenra - Mass VI
