Wow, some of these are hard.

Album:  Symphony X, Underworld.  Biggest surprise of the year for me.
 
Song:  Not sure, but Hellfire and Toxic Remedies off the new Queensryche album are definite contenders.

Book:  I haven't read anything that was released in 2015.  In fact, my pleasure reading (outside the Bible) has been really limited this past year.  The only thing I can recall for certain is the Hunger Games series (read to see whether appropriate for my 12 year old), and that was excellent.

Movie:  Hmm...probably The Force Awakens.  If I took my time, I might be able to come up with something I enjoyed more, but I enjoyed this one A LOT.  And given that it had so much build-up and still did not disappoint, I have no problem just picking it.

TV Show:  Would have to be Agents of SHIELD.  Best series on right now, although I feel like season 2 was stronger.

Video Game:  Dunno.  Haven't really played any, other than Greed for Glory on my phone.  Since I am a total addict, I guess I have to pick that.  ...which I guess I don't really have a problem with, but it just seems odd not picking something that you would play on a console or computer.  It isn't nearly as immersive as some of the stuff I used to play on console/computer back in the day, but I love it and on it constantly, so...

Steven Wilson: Hand. Cannot. Erase. (Though this is a close one)
Steven Wislon: Happy Returns (Not as close)
Book: I've read a lot this year but nothing really new. At the top would be David Mitchell's Bone Clocks, Black Swan Green and Ghostwritten, and Jonathan Lethem's Fortress of Solitude
Movie: Not seen a thing. I'll catch TFA next week though, so that'll be my answer by default
TV Show: The Leftovers

Not played any video games  :-[

Album: Arcane - Known/Learned. Haven't really gotten a chance just yet to listen to some other albums that were on my list though.

Song: Viet Cong - Death

Book: I need to read more

Movie: Mad Max and Ex Machina are tied for the top spot. The Force Awakens and Inside Out are note-worthy as well

TV Show: F is for Family, but it's really the only show that came out this year that I watched :lol Though it's still definitely worth a watch. Still need to watch all those Marvel/DC shows as well as Fargo when I get the chance

Video Game: Don't really play too many these days, but I'd say Fallout 4, which was one of the few I could actually get my hands on

Album: The Dear Hunter - Act IV Rebirth in Reprise

Song: The Dear Hunter - King of Swords, maaybe Native Construct - Chromatic Aberration.

Book: Haven't read anything from 2015.

Movie: Haven't seen the Star Wars movie yet, for now my favorite remains Ted 2. There really wasn't too much to pick from though, I think I've seen like 5 new movies this year.

TV Show: Not too big on TV shows, does the new South Park season count? If so I'd say that one.

Video Game: Not a big video game guy either.

people on this board are actual music fans who developed taste in music and not casual listeners who are following current fashion trends and listening to only current commercial hits.

Album: Voodoo Circle - Whisky Fingers

Song: Voodoo Circle - Heartbreaking Woman / Medicine Man, Nightwish - Weak Fantasy, Toto - Holy War

Movie: I don't watch a lot of new movies, but Ex Machina gets my pick. Fury Road and The Force Awakens were both also great.

TV Show: Best new show of 2015 for me was Humans. Doctor Who had an incredible season, and Continuum ended strongly. Farewell Continuum.  :'(

Video Game: Haven't played any new games from 2015. But the best game I've newly discovered this year is easily Rayman Legends.

Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

Album: The Book of Souls- Iron Maiden

Song: This is tough and there are too many to pick from. I'll go with Red and the Black off of Book of Souls.

Book: I only read the two new King books (Finders Keepers and The Bazaar of Bad Dreams). Both are very good. I'll say my favorite book I read in 2015 was Everville by Clive Barker.

Movie: Star Wars

TV Show: Game of Thrones

Video Game: Rise of the Tomb Raider
