Eldritch of Death’s Album of the Year
Its been an interesting year for metal in 2018. There certainly was a fair amount of great releases but there’s always some that just stand out more and rise above. Whether signed or unsigned, to be a demo, or a tape or a CD, etc, it’s all here and in no particular order or rating. For the most part, I have always been a death metal fiend with my main interests in metal even though I do like other various extreme genres as well. Here’s my list of the various releases this year that I felt made the difference and impacted greatly on me…
