As we begin our eighth year of selecting each month's best new metal releases, 2013 is kicking off on a high note. Picking the best five out of the over 70 albums we reviewed this month was a tough task. There were some really good releases, and even though it's early in the year, I think you will probably be seeing a couple of these in many year-end lists. In a close-fought battle, Voivod just edged out Cult Of Luna. Check out our selections for January's best new metal CDs.

Have you checked out Bullet For My Valentine’s new video? I’m psyched for the new album!
