10 Most Anticipated Hard Rock & Heavy Metal Albums Of 2017

1. System Of A Down - TBA

So you think Tool are taking a long time to make an album? Babe, that's child's play when compared to the aeons that System of a Down took to conjure up their next record.

It was only this year that the Armenian-American quartet announced that they will record their sixth album in 2017, nearly 12 years after their twinned Mezmerize and Hypnotize albums hit shelves in 2005.

With such a big release gap, how could the next System... album not be number 1? They're probably one of the biggest bands of the nu metal era, a beloved childhood or adolescent icon to those who are now in their 20s and 30s.

With nostalgia on their side, System of a Down has the potential to rule 2017.
