Your top albums of 2010

Now that 2010 is officially behind us, go ahead and list the albums that you listened to over the year. This was a pretty slow year for me musically, so this was all I really had to listen to in 2010 by way of new releases.

Disturbed: Asylum
HIM: Screamworks
Kamelot: Poetry for the Poisoned
Ozzy: Scream
Tarja: What Lies Beneath

List the albums that were your soundtrack of this last year.

That's a pretty long list. I might have to check out some of those releases. :)

Honestly, 2011 seems as though it's shaping up to be a *really* good year musically. I mean, already we've got the new Strato out by the end of the month; and it's pretty certain that WT and Nightwish will both have something new out this year too. Not to mention a few other bands that might put out something as well!
 
Keeping in mind that I listen to lots of different stuff along with my metal, my list for 2010 was:

10. Ryan Bingham & The Dead Horses - Junky Star
09. Robert Plant - Band of Joy
08. Iron Maiden - The Final Frontier
07. Disturbed - Asylum
06. The Scorpions - Sting In The Tail
05. Heaven & Hell - Neon Nights: 30 Years of Heaven & Hell - Live In Europe
04. Dio - At Donington UK: Live 1983 & 1987
03. Brian Howe - Circus Bar
02. Black Country Communion - S/T
01. Accept - Blood of the Nations
