It’s that time of the year again, when you tell me there’s been no good new music and I tell you there’s been more than plenty. Let’s cut to the chase. Here are my picks for the 20 best full-length studio albums of the year 2016.<\/p>\n

20. Take Over And Destroy – Take Over And Destroy:<\/strong> This Tempe, Arizona group released their third full-length album this year, the self-titled effort also their first on Prosthetic Records. Through this set of ten powerful compositions, Take Over And Destroy present a fresh, compelling take on extreme music with their black metal-meets-death rock stylings, the music and the lyrics emanating a grief-filled vibe but doing so in a strangely uplifting manner from the listener’s perspective. One of the finest hidden gems of the metal underground to have surfaced this year.<\/p>\n
