Yes. Everyone has a top list of something it seems, and we're no different. Our approach to this cliche of journalism is highlighting landmark years in metal, with an emphasis on years that had an abundant of seminal releases. This also means that we're dealing in volume of records released in certain years, so we're missing some crucial LPs in our lists, but most of those we've covered or will cover in upcoming shows. So now it begins... number 10 in our list: 1985. (Disclaimer: we're trying to approach this from an extreme metal standpoint, not just metal in general. If that were the case, we'd be starting back in the 70s.)
