The Great Mackintosh/Andrew Cook’s Top 50 of 2017
We may disagree on a lot of this but at the end of the day Metal is the blood, and the blood is the life.
Auri – The Crown of Doubt
Growth from this early, lofty level will likely lead to exceptionalism.
American Space Monkey – Crash Landing
Players of obnoxious, abrasive music.
Redneck Spaceship – Grand Marshal Ape
A fantastic listen of well produced, bluesy, groovy metal.
Shambles – Primitive Death Trance
Be prepared to have your life left in Shambles!
Verikalpa – Taistelutahto
This would most definitely translate into a great party album for drinking ale and mead to.
Fight the Fight – Fight the Fight
ability to be brutal, melody driven, and obscene all in the same song
The Divided Line – Paramnesia
catchy chorus riffs and perfect vocal styles
Knife the Glitter – Knife the Glitter
melodies and the progressions interweave in a tapestry of perfect harmony
Hellish God – The Evil Emanations
It is really the classic sound from the late 90’s that they most call forth.
Summoning – With Doom We Come
Rarely has black metal felt so immense and stately.
Bleeding Gods – Dodekathlon
The production value and symphonic flourishes serve only to allow this monster room to roam and destroy
Nekrokraft – Witches Funeral
Prudent use of death and thrash elements serve to heighten the sense of impending doom.
Revenger – The New Mythology Vol. 1
chasing one another around the sonic waves
Death on Fire – Witch Hunter
Amongst the angst is a mix of melody for good measure.
Golgothan Remains – Perverse Offerings To The Void
This is no work of kind folk, this is evil in its purest form.

Hooded Menace – Ossuarium Silhouettes Unhallowed
The darkest of oceans lapping forever at your feet and suddenly you are in it and drowning with no help in sight.
Perfect Beings – Vier
Any attempt to welcome this album into a good home and to give it the attention it deserves will no doubt yield tremendous rewards.
Ataraxy – Where All Hope Fades
One of the best death doom albums you’ll hear this year and by far the best album of their career
Cryptae – Cryptae
.Cryptae sound like they just walked straight out of the primordial ooze and decided to show us what the fuck that sounded like.
