2010 thus far...

It has been a really strong year for cds. A lot of good stuff will make choosing a top 25 hard this year...

It was a great year, but a financial disaster in terms of metal shopping.

That's why I'll do a top 50 (maybe even top 60). Recent albums have really impressed me:

Revamp-s/t (Floor Jensen's new band)
Hail Of Bullets-On Divine Winds (good mix of old school and new school death metal)
Daath-s/t (a new school death metal band that doesn't cease to amaze me)
Star One-Victims Of The Modern Age (anything with Russell Allen)
Eluveitie-Everything Remains A It Ever Was (very impressive folk death metal band)
Enslaved-Axioma Ethica Odini (better than the other albums I have from them)

Also, I am sure the new Allen/Lande will impress me and make it to the top 10.
