Okay, here's the deal. I still don't have a lot of records I wanted to check out this year. So you vote for which ones I should get, and I'll go out and purchase the top two or three. K?

List is in half-assed alphabetic order.

Everyone can vote for 4.

If you voted "other," keep in mind that this year I bought the new Iron Maiden, A7X, Periphery, Terrasect, Blind Guardian, Robert Plant, James LaBrie, Porcupine Tree, Haken, Star One, PoS, and other stuff I'm probably forgetting.

1 vote so far for Accept's Blood Of A Nation

1 vote so far for Valley of Smoke by Intronaut

Helloween (Great new album)
Opeth (BWP live!)
Spock's Beard (Barely listened to it, but it's SB)
Transatlantic (Epic beyond epic)

Perpetual Change · « **Reply #2 on:** November 22, 2010, 07:14:51 AM »

The reason I've held off on the Opeth and TA DVDs is because my current living situation doesn't really lend to their full enjoyment. However granted enough votes I'd concede to watching them on the laptop

TAC · « **Reply #3 on:** November 22, 2010, 07:18:31 AM »

Perp,
You gotta check out the new Blaze. Promise & Terror is my #1 2010 album! Also not listed is Accept's Blood Of A Nation. A great classic heavy metal album.

Sigz · « **Reply #4 on:** November 22, 2010, 07:44:33 AM »

Voted for Alcest, Coheed, Demians, and the other option, my recommendation being Valley of Smoke by Intronaut.

Alter Bridge - III
Opeth - Live at Royal Albert Hall

Zantera · « **Reply #6 on:** November 22, 2010, 09:33:48 AM »

Alcest
Anathema

Oceansize (wasn't in your poll)

The River Empires is the best album released this year, so check it.

New National album is better than anything you listed

Anathema
Coheed
Opeth
Demians

Honourable mention for Riverside.

sonatafanica · « **Reply #9 on:** November 22, 2010, 10:22:01 AM »

Anathema, Coheed, and Opeth.

Gorille85 · « **Reply #10 on:** November 22, 2010, 10:48:06 AM »

The best album of this list is Anathema.

Dr. DTVT · « **Reply #11 on:** November 22, 2010, 10:52:42 AM »

My write in is for Therion's new album, Sitra Ahra

LudwigVan · « **Reply #12 on:** November 22, 2010, 11:30:47 AM »

Riverside
Black Country Communion

skydivingninja · « **Reply #13 on:** November 22, 2010, 12:05:26 PM »

Coheed and Opeth. I also selected other, but its intended for the new Pure Reason Revolution that I still haven't heard. Regardless, I have faith enough in them that you should check them out anyway.

Algo Fonix · « **Reply #14 on:** November 22, 2010, 12:18:24 PM »

Spock's Beard- X
Transatlantic- Live in London Set
Opeth- Live at Royal Albert Hall

wolfking · « **Reply #15 on:** November 22, 2010, 01:41:50 PM »

Helloween
Firewind
Gamma Ray
Blaze Bayley

Also;

Opeth
Charred Walls of the Damned
Alter Bridge
Jon Oliva
Savatage
Joe Satriani

RuRoRul · « **Reply #16 on:** November 22, 2010, 01:56:57 PM »

Definitely Alter Bridge III. Don't really know about the live stuff. Firewind and Anathema might be worth having.

Also I said Other: Seventh Wonder - The Great Escape. That's just me though.

Empty Tremor - Iridum sounded pretty good from what I heard of it.

TheVoxyn · « **Reply #17 on:** November 22, 2010, 02:18:40 PM »

Anathema and Jonsi (Go) win this year.

antigoon · « **Reply #18 on:** November 22, 2010, 02:38:53 PM »

Satch

Darkes7 · « **Reply #19 on:** November 22, 2010, 02:40:13 PM »

Anathema is an absolute must.

Opeth RAH DVD is excellent and definitely worth checking out, imo especially for the older songs which sound incredible. Riverside is also very good, and well, it was finally released after two years.

Also, if you haven't heard it: The Pineapple Thief - Someone Here is Missing. Great album and definitely worth trying.

zxlkho · « **Reply #20 on:** November 22, 2010, 02:48:22 PM »

ABIII
Alcest
Opeth
Riverside

Don't bother with Coheed, imo. It's not even decent.

ariich · « **Reply #21 on:** November 22, 2010, 04:02:55 PM »

If you like Opeth and TA then the live albums (including DVDs) are must-haves.

For my other two, I voted Linkin Park and The River Empires. Both are amazing albums!

SoundscapeMN · « **Reply #22 on:** November 22, 2010, 04:25:08 PM »

there's some albums not on that list that I'd recommend (Agalloch, Emanuel & the Fear, Foals, Orphaned Land, Sufjan Stevens, Janelle Monáe, Oceansize). I didn't realize there was a new Riverside record tho (not that I love them, but their record from 2009 was the 1st album I actually liked by them).

The River Empires

yes.

MetalManiac666 · « **Reply #23 on:** November 22, 2010, 05:03:02 PM »

I've only heard three albums from 2010, none of which are on the list, and none of which I think you would particularly enjoy.

Perpetual Change · « **Reply #24 on:** November 22, 2010, 06:58:21 PM »

Looks like Royal Albert Hall is gonna be a definite. Cool guys. Keep it coming!

Tetrafusion - Altered State

Here's one of the songs from the album to see if you like it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFd7XiN-obQ&feature=&p=D29F75F8A1225FE5&index=0&playnext=1

If you do like it there's much better on the rest of the album.

same here. Even with Sufjan Stevens working with them, The National are one of the most overhyped bands of not just this year, but the last 5 years. HIPSTER.

I actually have a deep hatred of things I perceive to be of hipster origin. lol.

Linkin Park- A Thousand Suns
Joe Satriani- Black Swans...
Coheed and Cambria- Year of the Black Rainbow
Spock's Beard- X

Perpetual Change · « **Reply #30 on:** November 22, 2010, 11:12:38 PM »

Thanks for all the recs, guys. I'll probably wait 'til Friday to buy anything so keep 'em coming.

Also, this album has now peaked my interest:

Perpetual Change · « **Reply #31 on:** November 23, 2010, 07:07:52 AM »

Unfortunately, I likely won't be getting the Opeth DVD. While I wanted it originally, I've heard it's got that really quick "machine gun editing' that Dance of Death and Rock and Rio suffered from. I for one can not stand this kind of thing. Unless someone convinces me it's not that bad, I'm going to have to pass on what might be a stellar performance of stellar material regardless.

ZKX-2099 · « **Reply #32 on:** November 23, 2010, 07:35:13 AM »

Orbs - Asleep Next To Science
The Dillinger Escape Plan - Option Paralysis

Don't fucking pay for Black Rainbow.

Sigz · « **Reply #33 on:** November 23, 2010, 07:59:10 AM »

There is no possible manifestation of reality in which I could see PC enjoying Dillinger Escape Plan.

And Black Rainbow is awesome.
