Thats all I can think of for the last several years. It has not been a good five years for metal.

I forgot about Disturbed, great band.

Whats the deal with Mudvayne? What albums should I start with?

You guys have a very loose definition of what qualifies as metal, methinks. Some of the bands listed here are "hard rock" at most.

I'm not into the "alternative metal" stuff that's been prevalent in the last 5 years. All the best stuff was 70s and 80s.

 

[MetalMat]

Iron Maiden "Brave New World"
Exodus "Tempo of the Damned"
Megadeth "The System has Failed"
Black Label Society "The Blessed Hellride"
Annihilator "Criteria for a Black Widow"

Did Testaments album "The Gathering" Come out within the last 5 years? If it did I would put that over the Annihilator album.

 

[nCred]

Evergrey - In search of truth is pretty good.

 

[upsciLLion]

Lateralus by Tool.

 

[BW86]

A few from my collection

Ildjarn - Nocturnal Visions
Morbid Angel - Gateways to Annihilation
Monstrosity - In Dark Purity
Suffocation - Despise the Sun
Vader - Litany
Averse Sefira - Battle's Clarion
Graveland - Raise Your Sword!
Sacramentum - Thy Black Destiny

I won't classify anything as metal, hard rock, whatever. People are too uptight about thinking something is not metal or something is nu-metal, etc.

In the last 5 years I've liked songs/albums from these bands:

Offspring
Pennywise

A whole bunch more...

These two are punk.

 

[imported_yetti]

children of bodom - follow the reaper
finntroll - jakten's tid
the haunted - made me do it
machine head - through the ashe of empires
exodus - tempo of the damned
dying fetus - destroy the opposition
misery index - retaliate
behemoth - demigod
dark tranquillity - damage done
myrkskog - superior massacre

i could list many more.

The Beginning of All Things to End

Tee End of All Things to Come

Dig is a great tune to this day.

Oh, and the Within Temptation album which was released last year was quite good too.
