Lu! Lu! Lu!
Urkhas tanakhi!
And if you couldn't guess what my list would be about then you must not know me very well. Anyway, i decided to make a list of my Fave Albums Of 2010, and from now on i might start doing individual album reviews, because it think it would be a lot of fun! And the reviews are more for me than anyone else, but if you like them, then woo hoo for yooooou.
Also, i didnt realize that 2010 was such a poor year for metal albums X_X during the formation of this list, i must have picked about 40 albums (no exaggeration) that i thought were from 2010, but were actually from 2009. So this list is basically any album from 2010 that i thought was mediocre, to pretty fucking good. Rating based on a scale from 1-10, 1 being i shoot myself in the head, 10 being i broke my neck from head banging and had to be taken to the hospital while listening to this album.
(GOLD MEDAL) 1. Paradogma - Hour Of Penance 10/10 (Pure, no bull shit, anti-christian death metal from Italy...i still have a broken spinal cord from this album)

(SILVER MEDAL) 2. Axioma Ethica Odini - Enslaved 9.5/10 (B-E-A-U-tiful progressive viking metal from the Norwegian legends)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rcssy33l04Y
(BRONZE MEDAL) 3. Terroreign (Apocalyptic Armageddon Command) - Impiety 9/10 (fast as hell, slaughtering black/thrash from Singapore, i fucking love this band)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6d_mdtQwyuQ
4. Witnessing The Fall - Svart Crown 8.5/10 (very impressive riffs, inspired by behemoth, morbid angel, and Swedish death metal in general)
5. Lawless Darkness - Watain 8.5/10 (finally, they're getting the recognition they deserve, truly skilled orthodox black metal)
6. Ominous Doctrines Of The Perpetual Mystical Macrocosm - Inquisition 8/10 (Long winded satanic song names, "frog vocals", but these are minor annoyance in the presence of riffs which are unique, enchanting, atmospheric, and mind expanding)
7. Monumentomb - Nominon 8/10 (Dirty, rugged, filthy Swedish Death metal....just the way i like it)
8. Fallen - Summon 8/10 (loud as hell! fast as fuck! US black metal that doesn't suck!)....sick rhymes right?
9. Polarity - Decrepit Birth 8/10 (This new fangled tech-death is pretty damn catchy, not to mention these new age death metal/hippies are fucking awesome)
10. Erebos - Hate 8/10 (A solid polish death metal release, although there's nothing more to say than that. Its very good, but doesn't do anything to try and achieve more.)
11. Insidious Dominion - Malevolent Creation 7.5/10 (a solid come back after a 3 year absence, but theirs no greatness here, its like they never left.)
12. Fi'mbulvintr - King Of Asgard 7.5/10 (Catchy, if almost a bit "pop like" viking metal, still enjoyable though.
13. Death Gods - Deathchain 7/10 (not their best album, but it was a good intro to the band, Deathchain is fucking sick!)
14. Demonicon - Besatt 6.5/10 (Enjoyable black metal performance, but there's room for improvement)
15. Road To The Octagon - Impaled Nazarene 6/10 ( i just started getting into this band, and their latest effort felt short and left me wanting more. Sure there's a few good songs here and there, but this album is nothing compared to their previous work, Manifest)

Enslaved's two newest albums are incredible in my opinion!

Decrepit Birth is also one of my current fav tech death bands. Seen them twice, their singer is such a nice guy!

Oh i know right? He's so chill and easy to talk too! My friend and I got an autograph and a picture with him, and a copy of their newest album of course.

Yeah! Polarity is great, very similar to Diminishing as well.

OP
Indeed, i think both albums are better than their first, only because it sounds like a Suffocation tribute album.

Yeah lol it's pure brutal death. They seemed to drastically mature musically after that.
