Welcome to the 2018 Musicalypse Awards! Prior to 2018, we had done our yearly staff picks for the best of each year in metal. However, this year we decided to shake things up. All participating staff members submitted nominations for their choices in several categories and we voted, to provide you with the staff’s collective Best Of 2018! This was a rather varied year musically, with albums coming out left and right that spanned the full spectrum between total crap and masterpieces. So, without further ado, here are the winners of the new and improved Musicalypse 2018 Music Awards for hard rock and heavy metal!
