2010 Aoty Contestants
These are my current picks for 2010 that I will pull from for my top r10, or whatever. Please rec me anything from 2010 I may have rmissed that fits here. |
| 1 |  | An Autumn For Crippled Children
Lost
I need to give this a few more listens for sure. |
| 2 |  | Istapp
Blekinge
Even at the cost of our own lives, we must vanquish the light and welcome
eternal winter. Yeah, these guys aren't serious, but their music is great. |
| 3 |  | Agrypnie
16[485]
Same as 1... really need to listen to this more to make a decision on it. |
| 4 |  | Agalloch
Marrow Of The Spirit
One of the "heavyweights" as it were. |
| 5 |  | Alcest
Ecailles De Lune
This one will be hard to beat. |
| 6 | | Witnerhorde
Underwatermoon
Awesome concept album, not usually my preferred brand of metal but it'll
definitely make it into the top 10. |
| 7 |  | Eluveitie
Everything Remains As It Never Was
This album was sadly kinda forgettable, but it's definitely a good listen. |
| 8 |  | A Cosmic Trail
The Outer Planes
Added this one to the database, will easily be in the top 5. |
| 9 |  | Nimbatus
Cyclus One
Added this to the database as well. Actually, Cyclus One and Cyclus Two
are both 2010 releases, I'll probably consider them one album to rank them
though. |
| 10 |  | Soul Cycle
Soul Cycle
Djent! This one won't make it into the top ten honestly, but I do enjoy it. |
| 11 |  | Encoffination
Ritual Ascension Beyond Flesh
Per Terrifyer's rec, I replaced my crappiest with this, which will now be the music I listen to while playing
Minecraft. |
| 12 | | Anathema
We're Here Because We're Here
Don't know how this one will fare, I honestly preferred Anathema when
they were miserably depressed all the time, this sentimental album is very
well composed but, I just don't know about top 10 material. |
| 13 |  | Akelei
De Zwaarte van het Doorstane
Added this to the database (look at me go!) but don't think it'll make it to
top 10. I'll have to give it a couple more spins first. |
| 14 |  | Crippled Black Phoenix
I, Vigilante
Damn, didn't see that one coming did you? |
| 15 |  | Exilym
No More Freedom
Awesome EP, added it to the database last night. So many people here
would dig it. Post-rock with heavy leanings. |
| 16 |  | Mar De Grises
Streams Inwards
Top 10 material without a doubt. |
| 17 |  | A Forest Of Stars
Opportunistic Thieves of Spring
Need to listen more, but I'm digging it so far. No idea why they claim they're
"steampunk" though, they just sound like depressive black metal. |
| 18 |  | Ea
Au Ellai
Only funeral doom contender? Probably the best one anyway. |
| 19 |  | Averse
The Endesque Chants
Another new one for Sputnik, this one is freakin GOOD... GET IT. NOW. |
| 20 |  | DorDeDuh
Valea Omului
Okay, there's no way a 2 track EP should really even qualify but I'm really
excited to see what this band can do. |
| 21 |  | Imperium Dekadenz
Procella Vadens
As with many of the others, I really need to listen to it more before year
end to be sure. |
| 22 | | Mael Mordha
Manannan
I have tried repeatedly to add this album to the database but it always
gives the error "There was a problem submitting the review (albums).
Please contact the webmaster" |
| 23 |  | Nightbringer
Apocalypse Sun
Need to hear more. |
| 24 |  | Belenos
Yen Sonn Gardis
Same as above, just heard for the first time yesterday. |
| 25 |  | The American Dollar
Atlas
Or Ambient Two? Hmm. |
