Bonus tracks for those who complain about the lack of DT. :-P "Answering the Call" and "Liquid Evolution".
Oops, forgot a couple that Spotify doesn't have (probably even more). ISON/Sylvaine's "Meridian" and Autumn's Grey Solace's "The Lonely".
I was going to do a top 50, which turned into a top 75, which turned into a top 100, and well, it's taken 125 (ok, 129) for me to not really be annoyed with leaving things off (though the full list is 248), lol, so there it is. As strong as the year was for albums, I think it was even better for songs, a quite deep year. Lots of songs about ascension for some reason, and I guess Chelsea Wolfe wins the year. Adding in last year, Cammie Gilbert might be winning the decade so far though.
