First of all, we must specify that this is not a top album list, the rank number don't have an importance, but rather nominations. Since we have already passed the eighth month, the end of the year is approaching quickly with the rapid pace of album releases. We are already thinking about the end-of-year top albums for 2024 and we want you to participate in December.
We are thrilled to announce the development of our idea that has been brewing over the past few weeks: Album of the Year chosen by the readers! Here’s how it will unfold:
Nomination Period:
- Duration: 18 weeks before December
- Frequency: One text every 3 weeks
- Nominations: Each text will present 10 nominated albums, with streaming links on Spotify, Bandcamp, and Deezer.
- Total: 60 nominated albums spread over 6 texts
Voting Period:
- Dates: From December 1st to January 15th
- Participation: You will be able to vote for your favorite albums during this period.
- Results: The results will be announced every 2 weeks, with a total of 3 summary texts.
We now invite you to discover the first 10 albums that have sparked strong reactions across the scene. These are records that undoubtedly have great potential to be voted into the top 10 by you. We know that you are a key player in the appreciation of theses albums Hardcore et Metalcore, and as you respond well to our growing community, it will be your voice that carries this result in the end. So, as mentioned earlier, the ten albums have a streaming link; just click on the logo of the listening platform of your choice.
