3. Greg Puciato - Child Soldier: Creator of God

You never know what you're going to get from Greg Puciato, and his debut solo album honors that. Child Soldier: Creator of God is a thoughtful marriage of all his other projects — the head-walking intensity of the Dillinger Escape Plan, the gothy synthwave of the Black Queen, the snarling metal of Killer Be Killed — and then some. From the smoky post-punk of "Deep Set," the shimmering soul of "Temporary Object," the rollicking alt-rock of "Down When I'm Not," and the writhing sludge madness of "Roach Hiss," Puciato contorts his chameleonic play-style into an hour's worth of nonstop surprises. E.E.

9. Killer Be Killed - Reluctant Hero

On their surprise second album, supergroup Killer Be Killed outgun their 2014 debut with help from new member and Converge drummer Ben Koller. Recorded in secret over the last few years, Reluctant Hero sees former Dillinger Escape Plan vocalist Greg Puciato taking musical leadership and ripping tasteful guitar solos all over the place. Meanwhile, the triple vocal attack of Puciato, Mastodon's Troy Sanders and living metal legend Max Cavalera reaches a thrilling apex on the anthemic "Dream Gone Bad." J.B.

19. Puscifer - Existential Reckoning

Perhaps no other album this year began with as timely a line as "Here we are in the middle of our existential reckoning." You're also highly unlikely to find another album that explores the fear and loathing of our uncertain times in as chill a fashion as the latest from Maynard James Keenan's art-rock outfit Puscifer. From the opening synth dirge of "Bread and Circus," Keenan and Co. face it down with a soundscape melding everything from trip-hop beats to desert-rock guitars. It's a rich, layered experience full of dread, hope and caustic criticism — as suitable for a mescaline-fueled mind expansion in the Arizona wilds as it is for a cozy mid-afternoon space-out in your apartment. Roger Riddell
