I think Sepultura - Last Time from their new Quadra is one of the best metal tracks of the last 10 years if you want just one song to listen to. [Here is the music video. Love this song.](https://youtu.be/fJPuijhnXrA) Derrick Green’s best vocal performance is on this new album. ---

> [@Mahaloth](#): > > Does anyone listen to Behemoth? Their Satanist album topped many lists of the best metal album of the decade. I have listened to their last two albums and have honestly find them…good, but nothing super special. They actually sound like they have enough talent to make a good album, but I would have encouraged their singer to move away from death-grunts and move more towards a clearer and less stereotypical type of singing voice. > > Anyone a fan? I would not call myself a fan, but listened out of my continual search for new music. I liked The Satanist. I didn’t like the one that came after it nearly as much. I think the black metal death metal thing they do is pretty cool (not really blackened death, or at least not like other Blackened Death I have heard.) ---

2014 [Benighted - Carnivore Sublime](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-r7BkOoQGI&list=PLArAJlC1y5594FF3jOkYjt9vQ_vWrv0IN) (the audio on these videos is super-hot, eh; watch your levels) is super awesome brutal death metal/grindcore from France. Fantastic vocals. Excellent riffs. Mile-a-second pace. Overwhelming and relentless. Cool album art, too. [Expire - Pretty Low](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpU3_i0FGMw&list=PLeVGzKNSyZPfstCnwpEDiiQiyGmBiCJJ3) - Punk as fuck metallic hardcore perfection. “I’m at a crossroad / Where you choose / You either fight, or you lose / Refuse to let my life be reduced to rubble / When the shit keeps piling up, get a shovel” is one of the best lyrics I’ve heard in the last 30 years. [Ringworm - Hammer Of The Witch](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkAD5EKH6bI&list=PL4uR9M2CqqXgQQpJshsNWdv9YOfsoQ3pl) - The Human Furnace is matched by the band on this one. Furious metallic hardcore, all anger and determination and yelling and moshing plus some fucking kick-ass guitar work. [Vaginal Penetration Of An Amelus With A Carrot](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O31AGCXBGqA&list=PLiLqP1HJpC6gvrSBEa8NN0ANVIa854NVb) split with [Teen Pussy Fuckers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9p5UbOE8Pw0) - A Fairytale Full Of Apotemnophiliac Moments - Split album but each band totally delivers. BRUTAL fucking whacked out grindcore; not for the faint of heart. BONUS! I can’t recommend the whole album, nor have I been overly enthusiastic about most of the rest of their output since, but one song from 2014 stands out as one of my favorite songs of all time: from their album _Nothing For Us Here_, check out the simmering rage, confusion and horror that is [Cult Leader - Mongrel](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSu7nUln32E). This song is a brutal slow-burn to despair and terror; done to perfection! ---

> [@TruCelt](#): > > _The Gereg_ by The Hu. [Wolf Totem](https://youtu.be/jM8dCGIm6yc?t=31) is my favorite cut [I wonder if you have seen that they did a Covid-19 Relief Effort concert and put it up on Youtube free of charge.](https://youtu.be/ik5qhnqIZy8) @TruCelt [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-are-the-best-metal-albums-of-the-past-10-years-2010-2020/848372.md?page=1)
