I listen to a wide variety of music. Rock, Jazz, Classical, Metal, Electronic, and sub genres in between but my favorite would have to be Metal! I have called this list Metal and Rock because some Rock music is debateable to be Metal so to satisfy everyone I called it Metal and Rock! So I have 25 albums from 2000 to 2009 and I will be going 25 down to 1 (25-16 first). I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think in the commentz!
25. Slayer "World Painted Blood"
I don't know why but I come to this album almost as much as Reign in Blood or Seasons in the Abyss! This is the best thrash album of the decade in my opinion but I'm not a huge thrash guy.
24. Dream Theater "Train of Thought"
One of my favorite Dream Theater albums. The songs are really heavy! Another great Dream Theater album!
23. Necrophagist "Epitaph"
Wow can Muhammed play the guitar. Its not just random fast playing, uncomprehendable tech death like some other bands of this style. He plays all kinds of sweeps and solos and they even draw influence from some classical music!
22. The Faceless "Planetary Duality"
YES! This was at a time my most played album. I have'nt given this a listen in a little while but from what I remember this was a GREAT album! I really liked the dual title tracks and The Ancient Covenent
21. Opeth "Deliverance"
The heaviest Opeth album! Many great tracks. If you like Opeth for their heavy stuff or your new check this out first!
20. Ensiferum "Iron"
Great Melodic Folk Metal! Viking inspired lyrics. Easily my favorite Ensiferum album! Cover art is an epic battle with a snowy mountain behind it. That says it all.
19. Intronaut "Prehistoricisms"
Say these guys open for Cyinc a few months ago and they impressed me a lot! I quickly got this cd and I have loved it so much!
18. Isis "Oceanic"
Yeah only 18. I'm sure some you hate me now xD. But this album is FAN-TAS-TIC! You feel like your underwater and its just a great sounding record. I hugely reccomend this album!
17. Mastodon "Remisson"
1/4 Mastodon albums to get on my list (thats right all 4 are in the 16 to 1). This album features no singing vocals. Very fast and Brann's drumming is super dooper guud lolz k?
16. Baroness "Blue Record"
Amazing! One of the best of 2009! Great musicianship. Great artwork. Guitars sound raw. Must have.
