Expanded MS 2016 Top 20

One of source of entertainment in the couple of months since I've joined MS has been watching albums careen up and down the 2015 top 20. I thought it might be interesting to compile a list of every album that shows up on the 2016 top 20 list at any point during the year (modulo how often I'm actually able to observe the list) along with some statistics. Ranking on this list is ordered by peak rank, then last date at that rank, then end of year rank.

1.Insomnium - Winter's Gate
2.Trees Of Eternity - Hour Of The Nightingale
3.Aenaon - Hypnosophy
4.Dark Tranquillity - Atoma
5.Anaal Nathrakh - The Whole Of The Law

Club: Technical/progressive Music That Ain't Over The Top Wankery

this list is related to this forum thread, please check
this list is a collaborative one and will surely grow ; it is a proof of concept for a club feature, see here.

Hi people. I'd like to create a list of albums with the purpose of being as complete as possible. I'm looking for music that is technical or progressive, although I really don't like when things get out of hand, with crazy vocals in 4 different registers building tension and brutally stoping to yield it to a shredding solo in mixolydian helped by drums in 11/12 which try to imitate the synth syncopation in counterpoint, for ten seconds before jumping into something else.

1.Angra - Angels Cry
2.Angra - Holy Land
3.Angra - Fireworks
4.Angra - Rebirth
5.Angra - Temple Of Shadows

2016: Accounting For The Top Releases

Last year I was a little late to the party...busy studying for a professional exam and all. This year I thought I would try and stay on top of a list and hopefully follow it through to the end. I'm going to limit the list to anything I would rate 7 and up. Overall on this site my ratings are fairly favourable, because I try to stick to genres and bands I know I will like.

1.Asphalt Graves - The New Primitive
2.Vektor - Terminal Redux
3.Grave Miasma - Endless Pilgrimage
4.Lycus - Chasms
5.Glorior Belli - Sundown (The Flock That Welcomes)
