Bring Me The Horizon – amo

BMTH burst into a new era with amo, burning down every notion of genre and winking at those that disagree. The band expanded their sound to maximum potential, incorporating anything and everything that felt right, delivering some of the most affecting and aggressive moments of the year.

Cage The Elephant – Social Cues

Born out of personal pain, Cage The Elephant deliver a tight and thoughtful collection on Social Cues. Shifting from anxious to atmospheric, the band turns turbulence into triumph on their 5th studio album. Cage won Best Rock Album in 2017.

The Cranberries – In The End

Released after the death of lead singer Dolores O’Riordan, the final album from The Cranberries is bittersweet, able to swim in the sadness and deliver a proper goodbye to one of the most iconic voices in Rock.

I Prevail – Trauma

Evolution comes in many different forms. For I Prevail it meant allowing themselves to explore, letting the influence of Hip Hop and Pop into their already relentless sonic attack. The result is heavy and heartfelt, and one of the strongest Rock records of the year.

Rival Sons – Feral Roots

Rival Sons went into woods of Tennessee for Feral Roots, breaking the typical recording cycle and finding something new about their band. They came out on the other side with their own brand of blues rock, delivered as only they could.
