So, without further ado, we give you Highlighting Second-Half 2016! -- Please keep in mind that any artists that placed in the First Half (like Skillet, Paper Route and winner House of Heroes) won't be re-listed here!

#9. Oh Sleeper
Bloodied//Unbowed

Release Date: Summer 2016
When it comes to spiritually impacting records very few have reached the excellence of Oh Sleeper's Children of Fire. After a disappointingly mediocre departure with the Titan EP, and a three-year hiatus, the anticipation for a new record has risen substantially, and with a title such as Bloodied//Unbowed, it's bound to be an intense offering.
        - Lucas Munachen

Dear Oh, Sleeper fans, I share your excitement and disbelief. After a less than inspired promotional campaign following 2013's crowd-funded The Titan EP, I, like many, thought we were witnessing the end of one of the most talented bands to cross the metalcore scene. Fortunately, that is not the case. With an admittedly vague release date of "Summer 2016," there may be no more enthusiastic party for Bloodied//Unbowed than the band themselves, and that is an encouraging sign.
        - Jeremy Barnes

One of the finest metalcore bands there is. If 2013's Titan EP is any indication, we're in for a wild ride with Bloodied//Unbowed. Can't wait for it to grace my ears!
        - Scott Fryberger
