Top 37 Music Albums of 2004
by mrmcrook

The lower 1/4 of studio albums on this list are all very equal and hard to place. Hence those at the bottom aren't necessarily bad albums at all.
All compilations are placed after studio albums as that's only fair in a year list. Many compilations this year it seems.

My top 10 favorite songs of 2004
1. Nightwish - Dark Chest of Wonders
2. Kasabian - Club Foot
3. Kasabian - Reason is Treason
4. Slipknot - Vermillion Pt 2
5. Monster Magnet - Monolithic
6. Nightwish - Ghost Love Score
7. Deja Voodoo - P
8. Slipknot - Duality
9. Arcade Fire - Wake Up
10. Monster Magnet - Master of Light

89.54 I was a late comer to symphonic metal. It's fantastic when done well and this album is the king of all symphonic metal I've heard..... so far. Smitten with this from the moment I first heard it. And just keeps getting better each time I listen too it. The metal riffs, rhythm & melodies. The outstanding gorgeous vocals. The orchestral arrangements. The accompanying choir. All put together to total perfection. This is the gold standard of symphonic metal 06/24 [First added to this chart: 04/14/2021]

89.00 Love this. Brilliant debut. There are many contenders who try to blend melody, rhythm and flow perfectly. Many fail. They has perfected it. Victory to Kasabian. Great music doesn't date and this is still as dynamic as the day it came out. 09/22 [First added to this chart: 11/25/2020]

88.21 Nothing different or special. Just an album loaded with top class stoner/metal tracks. No gimmicks. Less is more. A massively overlooked album. One of Monster Magnets better ones. Pretty much every track is killer with no slumps at all through the whole thing. Fucking brilliant and enjoyable. 06/24 [First added to this chart: 11/11/2021]

85.00 Way, way better than I was expecting based on previous albums I'd heard from them. This has a great feel and flow right throughout. Best album from them in my opinion. This is one of those albums that are knocking on my top 100's door. 03/22 [First added to this chart: 10/05/2021]

81.25 Up tempo garage rock. Short sharp feel good tracks. What you expect from a Hives album. Another one or two tracks like 'Diabolic Scheme' would be good, as the change of pace gives the album a break from just having one speed and makes the tracks that follow it more enjoyable. Great album. I like it. 07/23 [First added to this chart: 11/25/2020]

80.83 Yet another great album from Spiderbait. They really are one of the most under rated bands ever. Very up tempo heavy and breezy music. 12/24 [First added to this chart: 11/25/2020]

80.45 Definitely an album of two halves. First half absolutely outstanding with hooks that just reel you in. Some being quite dreamy that just mould into you, but with all being massively catchy. It's a shame the back half dips off otherwise this would be an album of legendary status. 01/25 [First added to this chart: 07/27/2024]

80.09* Similar sound to their debut. Which is great as they've an excellent sound and style. Minor Eastern influences without it being eastern at all if that makes sense. They should have been much bigger, as they fuck over all other bands in this genre of this era. 04/25 [First added to this chart: 11/25/2020]

80.00 For a period of time within life, once a week on a Friday night, I was a stay at home one man party. Drink copious amounts of bourbon, and play loud music. This album was on high rotation for a long time. Specially 'Duality' & ' Vermilion'. My neighbors must of hated me. I would of been the nightmare bogan cunt next door. Long haired filth. Oh happy day. [First added to this chart: 11/25/2020]

79.38* NZ band with a piss take on hard rock. Heavy party tunes. Very bogan. Lot of great bottom end rhythms. Up there with the better parody bands. The song 'P' is top notch earworm material. 04/25 [First added to this chart: 08/10/2024]
