Agalloch - The Mantle
Dark Tranquillity - Damage Done
Dream Theater - Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence
Symphony X - Odyssey
Opeth - Deliverance
Slechtvalk - The War That Plagues the Lands
Nile - In Their Darkened Shrines
Bloodbath - Resurrection Through Carnage
Crimson Thorn -Purification
Black Label Society - 1919 Eternal
Rage - Unity
Mortification - Relentless
Mastodon - Remission
SOAD - Steal This Album!
Sympathy - Invocation
Killswitch Engage - Alive or Just Breathing?
Motorhead - Hammered
Napalm Death - Order of the Leech
Sanctifica - Negative B
Cathedral - the VII Coming
ZAO - Parade of Chaos
Angel Dust - Of Human Bondage
Arcturus - The Sham Mirrors
Winds - Reflections of the I
There were a few others by Dio, Halford, Amon Amarth, Annihilator, Iced earth, etc., that I listened to, but the list were probably the most.
Bonus Live:
Sepultura - Under a Pale Grey Sky
It was a good and memorable year. I know it's not technically a Top 10, but it would be hard to pick the top 10 from my list.
