‘Tis the season to be jolly, and also to vote on which albums were the best for the year! For the last couple of years we’ve had a Fourtheye Readers Best Album poll, and this year we’re doing it again!
This poll will let you vote for the albums you’ve enjoyed this year, and may also give you a few tips as to what other albums Tool fans are enjoying at the moment. Some would say that 2014 has been a quiet year for musical releases, but none the less, there are plenty of great albums out there. Here’s a few suggestions taken from the Best Albums of 2014 thread in the forum:
- The Killing God – Misery Index
- Clearing The Path To Ascend – Yob
- The Ape of God – Old Man Gloom
- Hold It In – The Melvins
- A World Lit Only By Fire – Godflesh
- Seeds – TV On The Radio
- Self Titled – Killer Be Killed
- The Joy of Motion – Animals As Leaders
- Sines – Jakob
And I’m sure there are many others. Please use the form below to register your entries. Voting closes sometime on New Years Eve!
In case you can’t see the poll embedded above, you can reach it at this link.

There’s no “best” to me and one can’t listen to every album but here is my list of the 10 albums (no order) I listened and appreciated the most in 2014 :
Sines – Jakob
Blues Pills – Blues Pills
Lesser Key – Lesser Key
Easy Pain – Young Widows
Stranded In Arcadia – Mars Red Sky
L’Epreuve Du Contraire – Lofofora
Refractory Obdurate – Wovenhand
The Ape Of God – Old Man Gloom
Glass Cathedrals – The Mire
Royal Blood – Royal Blood
I discovered most of these through Sputnikmusic, US and french webzines and FourthEye obviously…
Helium Head by Mutoid Man melted my fucking face off. It gets my number one spot. Young Widows, YOB, and Boris had great albums this year too. Emma Ruth Rundle almost made my top ten, and deserves an honorable mention.
Just listened to the Mutoid man EP you recommended and it is bad ass.
Glad you enjoyed it! It’s really a supergroup of sorts: Steven from Cave In, Ben from Converge, and the sound guy from Saint Vitus Bar in Brooklyn.
