Taken around 8:30 pm GMT
There was no write-in for djent so I voted for one.
Not totally clean (trolls in last categories are kept for fun),
Thanks to the person who curated most of the write-is since yesterday, it really reduced the work to do!

PS : I cleaned the list listening to The Testament by Seventh Wonder, so I was particularly unhappy to see it in the biggest letdowns at the end

1.

2.A.A. Williams - As The Moon Rests

3.Disturbed - Divisive

4.Dog Fashion Disco - Cult Classic

5.Fleshwater - We're Not Here To Be Loved

stingy year of albums for me. Not the best year too, but in unluck i'm still here alive.

and i'm deeply sad that Bandcamp has been acquired by Epic Games, only for the purpose to going against Google. Damn my eye if i hate so much when greedy and shitty big tech company not respectful of privacy (both of them) ruins healty tech company that gives the right to artists (expecially indipendent ones) and customers. Well, time to buy on Bandcamp only on bandcamp friday.

1.Deon Van Heerden - Shootas, Blood & Teef (Original Soundtrack)

2.Saor - Origins

3.An Abstract Illusion - Woe

4.Die Apokalyptischen Reiter - Wilde Kinder

5.Kreator - Hate Über Alles

2.Wilderun - Epigone
