Top 10 Metal Albums of 2017 with the Best Vocals
Some of the albums on this list may not be among the top metal albums of 2017 but they have very good vocals.Ever since I bought High Priestess I have been a fan of this band they have moved to the top of my favorite bands Great range great songs
Amazing range and passion!
Probably the best metal album to come out in years. Kobra Paige is the female Dickinson.
Totally one of the best albums of 2017, backed up by an awesome tour
Stu Block - powerful clean vocals that sound close to Matt Barlow, especially the song Raven Wing (at times I could't believe it wasn't Matt).
Whatever was missing on War Eternal was fixed on this one and Alissa's vocals are stronger than ever. Never knew she could do clean vocals, so that was a pleasant surprise.
I like Alissa's growls. In this album she included more of her cleans - many people didn't know she can sing "normally" (song - Reason to Believe).
One of my favorite albums of 2017.
Dianne van Giersbergen is basically an opera singer (dramatic soprano) so no surprise here.
Very good clean operatic vox, high pitched.
There are like 10 metal bands with this name (Sanctuary) but this is the band from Seattle, US (heavy metal, power metal, prog metal).
We have a songbird here.
I'd consider this progressive metal, it's one of their most heaviest records in awhile. The drumming is very much progressive metal-esque, and some of the riffs are pretty heavy. Full Throttle Tribe, Reasons and On a Tuesday are probably the best examples to see for yourself.
Daniel is a great singer but I didn't put him higher because I am never sure whether they play prog metal or prog rock. For me they are more like prog rock but I decided to include Daniel.
