THE BEST DEATH METAL ALBUMS OF 2022
Another useless list here. I published my Black Metal top list for 2022 featuring 42 names, so this time I present you the best of 2022 death metal albums. For the sake of consistency, I did it with 42 names again. These are the DM releases that made me the best impression and/or I liked the most. Frankly speaking the death metal in 2022 wasn't that exciting at all. A lot of stuff out there but not memorable.
As usual, the below 42 are not in a particular order. Overall it is a solid list but not really sure how many I'm going to take into 2023 onwards with me. Because another pile of new stuff is coming and we'll be buried under the new schedule. And compared to the klassiks, almost zero of the new stuff has the power even to try to attempt what I really love from the past...You know what I mean.
Another remark - I tried to list down the death metal albums as per the understanding of the genre itself, not mixing with cross genres like death-black for example. Some ultra-solid names were left out because of this. Sisyphean, Berator or Vessel of Iniquity for instance.
From another hand, I just couldn't squeeze into the 42 the following bands: Rotten Tomb, Desolate Shrine, Suppression, Father Befouled, Scalpture, Cosmic Putrefaction, Demonical, Imprecation and Sol Ether here. They all deserve to be mentioned. And there you go, with them you got a top 51 list if you wish so.
Splits are not included in the list although there are five superb death metal splits that I enjoyed to the fullest - Gosudar/Malignant Altar, Perilaxe Occlusion/Fumes/Celestial Sanctuary/Thorn, Sewer Fiend/Plague Patrol, Ritual Necromancy/Fossilization, Anatomia/Undergang.
Here's the list according to the collage. Enjoy and let me know what I missed, or what are your favourites. Cheers!
