What I have listened to so far:
Darkthrone - The Underground Resistance
Helloween - Straight Out of Hell
Katalepsy - Autopsychosis
Manilla Road - Mysterium
Voivod - Target Earth

I liked 7 Sinners quite a deal more than Straight Out of Hell. That being said, it definitely has it's moments. So far I'd have to say my favourite of 2012 is Voivod's. I find myself going back to it and enjoying it just as much as the listen before. The new Darkthrone and Manilla Road are kickass too. Katalepsy released a pretty awesome album. I'm waiting to get the new Rotting Christ in the mail before I listen to it.

I find this year is pretty slow for me so far, considering I've only listened to 5 albums. There's a couple I need to get around to checking out (Suffocation's newest in particular).

I thought it was solid but patchy. Some songs stood as some of the best from the Deris era for me but others as some of the worst. I gave it a 4 star range rating in the end but for me its a definite step down from their last couple of releases.

All I've heard in full so far has been the new Tomahawk, Voivod, and Steven Wilson (which is not metal).  I've enjoyed them all though.

Here's my list over at RYM so far: http://rateyourmusic.com/list/J_Man/2013s_best_albums

I've heard a lot of other great releases that I haven't had the chance to review yet, but I'm hoping to get on those soon. The new Suffocation is something I've really been enjoying lately. Thumbs Up

I have enjoyed quite a few new releases already.

Enforcer - Death By Fire
Darkthrone - The Underground Resistance
Manilla Road - Mysterium
Rotting Christ -  Κατά τον δαίμονα του εαυτού
Voivod - Target Earth (worse cover art of the year)

Lots more to come including Ghost & Dream Theater.

Well...I haven�t really begun reviewing many of the 2013 promos I have lying around, so these are the only albums I�ve had time to review (not all reviews are posted yet):
 
1. Helloween - Straight Out of Hell
2. Andy Winter - Incomprehensible
3. Hatchet - Dawn of the End
4. Suffocation - Pinnacle of Bedlam
5. Void of Sleep - Tales Between Reality and Madness
 
I�m not too crazy about the Helloween album, although it�s certainly decent, but the other releases have been quite a pleasure to review...

This topic is obligatory is it not? And we had one for 2012 in 2012 before this date so it's overdue!

I believe I've been slower in 2013 than I was in 2012 for reviewing new releases, but I hit 20 today. Here is my equally obligatory Rate Your Music list of them: http://rateyourmusic.com/list/adg211288/2013_album_rankings

What albums from 2013 have you enjoyed so far? What are you looking forward to. Discuss here.
