Your top 20 Albums of 2010 (or what makes up your list so far)

drinkwine732

I was able to name about 40 really good albums last year, and I think I'd be able to name around 60 at this rate by the end of this year. I have a list of 30, all very good with exception of two. I have about 10 unranked that all are keeping the trend alive.

So you think Scurrilous is that bad? :-<

drinkwine732

No, Scurrilous is one of the 10 keeping the awesome year trend alive.

Prepare for some placing disappointment though.

MenAreTrash

Oh, I misunderstood that. Yeah, I'm expecting Scurrilous to be in between 25-35 on your list. It's a shame you haven't seen the light [-(

Fozzy's Chasing The Grail is my favorite album from last year, in my opinion the best straight up old school heavy metal album in years.

Not that much placing disappointment.

I wonder where Kvelertak and Anathema would place on my 2011 list, since they hit US shelves this year. I will keep them out, but it makes me wonder.

15-25?

Razor_Shark

I think Kvelertak was 5 on my list, behind Fozzy, Downspirit, Solefald, and Darkthrone

There are way more than that, and some I'm probably forgetting that are easily top 20 material. Last year was an incredible year for music.

EDIT: I just remembered Kvelertak, Fleshgod, Powerglove and Bleeding Through.

*patiently waits for ATDR remarks*

JLRedWing13

To be perfectly honest, I have never listened to that album. I like Homesick but I haven't listened to that one lol. That's not my gripe with that list.

OPP

Fair enough. What's the complaint then?

Like I said, I KNOW that I'm missing a fair amount

(just remembered Bison BC as I'm typing this)

JLRedWing13

Yeah, it's basically too short. :P haha

OPP

Ugh I know. I'm feeling lazy as hell to add to it... I listened to a good 30+ albums last year...

JLRedWing13

Did you ever listen to Cloudkicker?

OPP

That's another one, yes.

MenAreTrash

I only listened to 16 albums from 2010 last year. I've listened to a few more now, but I don't feel like adding them to that list, since it's no longer 2010.
