Best of 2010 thus far...

[VelociBrad]

Incendiary might be the only 2010 metal album that I've really listened to yet.

Check out the stuff Yoda mentioned up there, also I'd suggest Chronic Decay - Justify Your Existence, Burial Invocation - Rituals of the Grotesque, Wicca - Bloodrush, and Cardiac Arrest - Haven for the Insane.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

well you also got the new rituals of the oak, cardinal's folly, demontage, and the new hellish crossfire. but this year is definitely pretty weak so far

Theres a new Rituals of the Oak album?

 

[rms]

damn messed up that label its an 09 release mistakey mistakey

 

[WCannibal]

Winterfylleth - The Mercian Sphere is really fucking tight. I literally just found out about these guys, and for the album to rise up into my top 10 pretty much instantly easily earns the spot for the best album of '10 so far.

Check it out if you're into pagan BM. Make sure to listen in 480p.

Wow.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yeah this Winterfylleth sounds pretty good. Not amazing, but I'll check it out! Thanks for the tip-off.

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

I agree it sounds decent, but definitely worth all the praise that everyone is giving it here. It's typical.

It's also probably the best. Check out the new Hour of 13, Briton Rites, Kerasphorus, and Vasaeleth. Excellent fucking albums.

That Briton Rites album is fucking awesome. great stuff

 

[DrSkye]

Holy shit, this is awesome

Thanks to everyone who's been mentioning them for persuading me to pick this up. Damn. I wasn't expecting much, and this is phenomenal.

 

[The Emptier]

I have no idea why ares kingdom gets so much credit, i think it's shit. and the winterfylleth album was meh for me

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

I think it's pretty damn good, but overrated by some peoples.

 

[DrSkye]

At the least it certainly surpassed what I expected, by far.

 

[Dak]

I enjoyed the fuck out of the new Armored Saint, but I've only heard three albums that were released this year..

I thought it was pretty meh compared to earlier releases. Plus the title kind of pissed me off.
