Nope.
Looks like at this point titles are getting thrown out at random, so...
My #4 album is Cyhra - Trigger (Nuclear Blast Records). Excellent slice of modern melodic metal/rock.
Now... my #1 album of the year. This one broke my process entirely. It was released on December 28, so my guess is that it never was listened to by a LOT of people. Poor choice of release date.
I had to delay making a decision as I wanted to "let it simmer" and see if it held up upon replay over several weeks both on its own and mixed in with other material in heavy listening rotation... and it did.
The way I decided to start my writeup:
"What would happen if Robby Valentine, Kissin' Dynamite, and Powerwolf all came together to record The Rocky Horror Picture Show?"
You would end up with something very much like Dominum - Hey Living People (Napalm Records). It's a horror themed album with a sense of the theatrical throughout, but at its core melodic hard rock and solid across the board. The whole fucking album is infectious as hell IMO.
My candidate for "song of the year" is from this album, the lyrical genius of "We All Taste the Same" (remember the theme of the album):
The crunchy "Frankenstein" with great gang choruses:
And the wonderfully quirky Better Shoot Yourself:
Even the two (!) covers on the album are very well executed: Dead or Alive - You Spin Me Right Round and Midnight Oil - Beds Are Burning.
Here are the official videos they've done for the album thus far:
