Best Metal Albums of 2010

[Tranquillian]

I haven't heard it yet, less Mayhem/DMDS than earlier this time around or what?

Listen to it and make up your own mind.

 

[General Zod]

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Mael Mordha's latest. I thought they were huge around these parts.

I liked it more than previous releases, but I'm simply not feeling them.

 

[Ars Magna]

I liked it more than previous releases, but I'm simply not feeling them.

I'm right there with you. I didn't care for the last record at all. This one was more appealing, but I still don't care much.

Bought a few things recently; digging them all so far

Nevermore - TOC
Overkill - Ironbound
Fear Factory - Mechanize

Devin Townsend's Kai and Addicted

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Burzum - Belus
Altar of Plagues - Tides
A Forest of Stars - Opportunistic Thieves of Spring (Highly recommended. It's like a zanier Burzum with violin)
Mael Mordha - Manannannananananananana banana
Watain - Lawless Darkness
Immolation - Majesty And Decay
Misery Index - Heirs to Thievery

 

[lurch70]

Lawless Darkness is really fucking good.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

Lawless Darkness is really fucking good.

Yes, it definitely is.

Lawless Darkness and Maiestrit are the only two new metal albums I have heard this year, and both are fantastic. Maiestrit is phenomenal, I cannot stop listening to the album. Virstele on the other hand sounds pretty weak and uninspired, especially compared alongside the former.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Broken Social Scene - Forgiveness Rock Record
Areknames - In Case Of Loss
Ufomammut - Eve

In that order, are my favorite 3 albums of the year so far.

I just discovered a pretty nifty band right in my backyard; Resistor. Their latest release seems pretty damn awesome.

I'm pissed that I didnt know of this sooner. They had a CD Release Gig at some place in Cranston on 6/4. The day before my bday. That would have been sweet.

 

[Vittra]

lol @ this thread having "Metal" in the title

 

[Anom@nder Rake]

Ufomammut - Eve
Ares Kingdom - Incendiary
Burzum - Belus
Sorgeldom - Inner Receivings
Blasphemophagher - From Chaos, Obscurity and Desolation
Burial Invocation - Rituals of the Grotesque
Kerasphorus - Cloven Hoofs at the Holocaust Dawn

I still need to check out A Forest of Stars, Cemetery Urn, Watain, Immolation

 

[General Zod]

Some very interesting non-Metal recommendations here.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Broken Social Scene - Forgiveness Rock Record
Areknames - In Case Of Loss
Ufomammut - Eve

In that order, are my favorite 3 albums of the year so far.

Add Univers Zero - Clivages & Kayo Dot - Coyote to that list.

 

[Plastic Nathrakh]

Ufomammut - Eve

This is really good. Thanks!

I always disregarded Broken Social Scene because douchey people listened to them in high school.

[Krilons Resa]

FUCK YES

 

[Dick Sirloin]

TAME IMPALA - InnerSpeaker

Dreamy psychedelia. Doomcifer?
