Onwards and Upwards in 2019 !

As promised a little more data and stuff about the Stoner HiVe Top 20 Countdown of 2018. In the end 79 of the 82 lists that you lovely freaks sent in were counted. Two came in a few days too late and one was completely overlooked, unfortunately. The amount of albums voted for was no less than 388 albums. There were quite a few lists that came in that listed only one to three or five albums. Which causes the album count to be a bit lower this year. Below we feature the Number 21 to 100, with Domkraft and their amazing Flood album missing three points to make it to the Top 20. And Vortex by Toundra missing 84 points to do the same thing. To be fair, below are the album listed at Number 21 to 100 but a lot of those album gathered the same amount of votes. If we would really move to the 100th position down the list according to points we would end up with an extra list of  102 albums, which would give us Captain Caravan with their Shun The Sun album at the 100th spot. But we’re sticking with the list below. And marvel at the amount of amazing freaking heavy music release this year! Once again! It’s a good time to be alive for us heavy rock fiends!
