2026 has had a lot of great albums come out. I’ve listened to quite a few, but I’m sure I’ve missed a lot of good ones. So, what have been some of your favorites?
Here are some of mine:
- Neurosis - An undying love for a burning world (post-metal)
- Cairiss - Wilderness (blackgaze)
- Mastodon - Marrow Deep (prog metal)
- Fen - Elemental Part 1 (post-black metal)


Haken released an EP recently with their now 2-less member lineup. It’s pretty good, still unmistakably Haken. I’m looking forward to seeing them on tour with whoever they get as their touring bassist.
Also, does an anniversary re-master count? Meshuggah released a 20th anniversary remaster of Catch Thirty Three.
