Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. Well, this is certainly heftier than last week. Just like I said it would be. As is common for large debut lists, you’ve got band’s making comebacks, a few EP’s, younger bands trying to […]

Metal By Numbers is a weekly column in which we look at the top metal sellers and debuts of the week. So I’m going to use this as soapbox for a bit like I sometimes do. As you can see, the top debut this week is a female fronted hard rock band with said female, […]

As 2013 drew to a close, we highlighted several of our favorite albums of 2013 while doing something a bit unusual: we included metal radio’s favorite albums of the year, both in an official most-played capacity and in the form of consensus favorites.
