♥♥♥ Second Life Syndrome / ♥♥ Volte-Face / ♥ I Turned You Down
We currently live in a society where we are more aware of others than ourselves, we just appreciate what we don't own. Are we really as we want? Or do we want to be who we are not? In this moment I would like to be Mariusz Duda. [First added to this chart: 01/03/2014]

Black Metal
♥♥♥ In The Shadow Of Our Pale Companion / ♥♥ The Hawthorne Passage / ♥ I Am The Wooden Doors
This is a long crossing throughout the cold, the ice, the survival. Nothing around but you must to arrive. The path is increasingly more and more tough but the reward deserves this effort. You're faced to the most epic but elegant black metal production so, why not try? A clear pick in the top 100. [First added to this chart: 11/26/2013]

Progressive Metal / Death Metal
♥♥♥ Blackwater Park / ♥♥ The Drapery Falls / ♥ Bleak
After some solid works, Mikael Akerfeldt's boys reach the perfection in this rollercoaster of rythms among wrecking growls and smooth melodies that makes of "Blackwater Park" an intense walk over the mud from start to finish -including "Still Day Beneath The Sun" and "Patterns In The Ivy II, the two fantastic bonus tracks-. Nothing of this would have been possible without the collaboration of Steven Wilson as producer. [First added to this chart: 11/26/2013]

♥♥♥ Anesthetize / ♥♥ My Ashes / ♥ Sentimental
After several collaborations with metal bands, Steven Wilson manages to permeate his usual melancholy with a touch of aggressiveness. "Fear of a Blank Planet" is a tour through the different states of temporary insanity experienced by humans when they feel in loneliness. The best band of this century reaches their peak in this album. [First added to this chart: 11/26/2013]

♥♥♥ Fix You / ♥♥ What If / ♥ The Hardest Part
Very personal choice because many lyrics into it reflect experiences of my life and the sound captures my usual mood, it makes me feel literally in the space. Anyway, the album gathers enough musical quality to rank so high as it does on my chart, it's not just an emotional matter. [First added to this chart: 11/26/2013]

Progressive Rock
♥♥♥ Micro Softdeathstar / ♥♥ Crumble / ♥ Than You For The Evil
One of the better BEA member recommendations I have received. This album is a non stop of music that gets you to centuries ago to the Sumerian Empire in a sort of progressive opera which catches you and doesn't let go. It contains lots of instrumental riches with a neat treatment of the sampler. [First added to this chart: 05/16/2014]

♥♥♥ Windowpane / ♥♥ In My Time Of Need / ♥ Death Whispered a Lullaby
Is impossible not to fall in love with this album since its first listen to even if you aren't an Opeth fan. The lack of growlings maybe lets that. And probably not so outstanding quality and depth as Blackwater Park but has a peace and a harmony which gets to relax all your senses. I'm still waiting for some similar stuff from these swedish guys. [First added to this chart: 11/30/2013]

♥♥♥ 10,000 Days (Wings, Pt. 2) / ♥♥ Right In Two / ♥ Vicarious
Tool is one of the most deep, complex and unique bands of the contemporary music history which makes hard the access to it and 10.000 days is no exception. Aggressive, hostil, suffocating, somber... The first listens to the album will not be simple but then... BOOOM!!! I consider this more consistent than Aenima and Lateralus. [First added to this chart: 03/03/2014]
