Best Album of 2010

[Abzu]

What do you think should be nominated for a meaningless poll?



I nominate Ihsahn - After and Enslaved - Axioma Ethica Odini







...but I would ultimately vote Ihsahn - After.

[shadowalk]

The new Fear Factory gets my vote.

[Mr. P]

So far I would give my vote to Blind Guardian - At The Edge Of Time.



Biggest disappointing was Iron Maiden.

Even without having heard the new Maiden I can assure you that Atheist's new one was a far greater disappointment.

Exodus -Exhibit B: The Human Condition

Unleashed - As Yggdrasil Trembles

[Verbal]

i think belus is the only 2010 album ive heard



and i cant remember what it

[Mr. P]

For me the first place is a split decision between the Blind Guardian and Helloween's 7 Sinners. Both album are absolutely stunnishing entities and. Other albums worth mentioning are Hail of Bullets On Divine Winds, Both Avantasia albums, Deathchain's Deathgods, The Crown's Doomsday King.



Hell, I can't remember what came out last year :ff:

[M.Bison]

[quote name="Zajebiste!"]Fear Factory for sure.[/quote]



My opinion of you all just went down.



It's really shit.

[droidspawn]

My favorite isn't on the list but my runner up is. I vote for Ihsahn - After

[Abzu]

There were like 40 something nominations, so I had to trim it. The least biased way I could think of was trimming it to only albums mentioned more than once in this thread. If I missed any, let me know.

[vO)))id]

My vote went to Deathspell, with Ihsahn close.

[Haunty]

Agalloch - Marrow of the Spirit

Alcest - Écailles de Lune

Borknagar - Universal

Deathspell Omega - Paracletus

Drudkh - Handful of Stars

Enslaved - Axioma Ethica Odini

Ihsahn - After

Insidious Disease - Shadowcast

MIke Patton - Mondo Cane

I've been listening to Sigh's Scenes from Hell a lot lately, and it's a contender.
