Your Top Ten Albums of the Year!

[JDC]

Judas Priest - British Steel Corus (remastered)

fixed :D

[Modular1]

For rock albums id pick the albums by Avi Buffalo, Flaming Lips and Band of Horses. All great albums in 2010 from them.

In metal id pick the Watain album, but ive not really picked up a lot of new metal this year. I've mainly gorged myself on old stuff.

Really? I think their production values are absolutely bang on for what they're trying to do - unashamedly 70's occult rock like Coven and Cauldron and stuff but a bit more shiney and modern sounding.

I dunno what it is, maybe the drums or something. Just sounds a bit "flat". I find their style quite intriguing though, gonna be listening to them a bit more.

Oh yes, I have the Scorpions CD in the car. That one isn't bad indeed!  :D

[Spitfire]

Slash's album

[horsehead]

Slash - Slash
Phillip Sayce - Interevolution
Saint Jude - Diary of a soul fiend
Grace Potter & The Nocturnals - Grace Potter & The Nocturnals
Buck Cherry - All night long
Black Robot - Black robot

I'd need to check the front of the CD which is currently in the car, but I have a feeling Cancer Bats - Mayors, Bears, Scr@ps and Bones (or whatever it's called...) is from 2010. That is a bloody BRILLIANT album :)

Bought 5 2010 albums, nothing astounding. I liked Gogol Bordello's "Transcontinental hustle" I suppose.

There were great tracks throughout the year, but never 10 by one artist on a disc.

And what about Time Waits for no Slave by Napalm Death.. wasn't that a 2010 disc too? That is a STUNNING album!

Year of the Black Rainbow - Coheed and Cambria
This Addiction - Alkaline Trio
We Are the Void - Dark Tranquillity
The Living Measure of Time - Jurojin
The Panic Broadcast - Soilwork

Only other 2010 album I have is Stone Sour's, but haven't heard it yet. The Panic Broadcast was alright, but not as good as their old stuff.

Vocals may put some people off but the detailed riffs, composition and all round 'melodic epic' feeling made it a winner for me  8)
