2020 has been quite a year, and with everything that's happened leaving us all turned upside down, Wikimetal is here with a tradition to keep you going strong this holiday season: our list of the best albums.
To embark on this journey, we ended up changing the way the list works a bit. This year, instead of presenting the releases in order of preference, we chose to present each one chronologically. This way we can revisit each event of this year in a more joyful and nostalgic way, rather than the opposite. Ready? Let's go:
