Omega Wave
2.  Omega Wave by Forbidden
The list author says:
  "And yet another raging Thrash album by a bunch of ageing veterans- proof that age is no barrier to skull-cracking riffs and nosebleed solos- ranks right up there with Heathen."

Exhibit B: The Human Condition
3.  Exhibit B: The Human Condition by Exodus
The list author says:
  "Exodus continue their amazing run of late form with this slab of prime-riff-beef- slightly less aggressive than the last 3 'new' albums, maybe with more of a nod to their bouncy, late 80s cuts."
£12.04   Used & New from: £5.55

Relentless Retribution
4.  Relentless Retribution by Death Angel
The list author says:
  "And rounding up the Bay Area Thrash revivalists are these bruisers- slightly more rockin' in their approach than the other 3, they nevertheless add a healthy dose of heavy to crush any unbelievers!"
£10.97   Used & New from: £7.43

The Obsidian Conspiracy
5.  The Obsidian Conspiracy by Nevermore
The list author says:
  "This seems to have been less highly praised than their previous efforts but I reckon it kills- smooooothly bludgeoning."

Axioma Ethica Odini
6.  Axioma Ethica Odini by Enslaved
The list author says:
  "'Vertebrae' didn't do it for me- too brittle and spacey- this ramps up the grit and power and may even eclipse 'Isa' as my favourite, given time- truly epic."

£10.67

Red Light Fever
11.  Red Light Fever by Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders
The list author says:
  "Not metal but still rocking in a Queen/Foo Fighters way, this is my gentle, nodding, nostalgic discovery of the year- never going to shatter worlds but it will rock them sunnily."

Quantum Catastrophe
13.  Quantum Catastrophe by Brain Drill

Majesty And Decay
14.  Majesty And Decay by Immolation
The list author says:
  "Their 10th album and there is no one who creates Death Metal like this lot- they refine and refine until they are left with this writhing, agonised scream of doomed anguish- it is good for you."

Loss
15.  Loss by Wodensthrone
