Best albums of 2005

Postby MetalWolf » Sat Dec 10, 2005 11:23 am

I dont know I think it was a rather weak year for music (at least for what I was looking for). However there were a few good ones.

Touched By The Crimson King by Demons & Wizards
The Black Halo by Kamelot
Mafia by Black Label Society
Alien by Strapping Young Lad
Angel Of Retribution by Judas Priest (even though it wasn't as good as I had hoped)

What were you favorite albums that came out this year?

But I ain´t no pretty boy
I´m a backbone shiver
and I´m a bundle of joy - Motorhead

To be honest, I've not really listened to very much new music at all in the last year.

The one album that I did hear, however, was pretty darn profound; easily my favorite contemporary rock album:

DDT - Propavshij Bez Vesti

Opeth - Ghost Reveries
Arch Enemy - Doomsday Machine

Thats it for now ... it really wasn't a good year.

My top 20, which I have also posted elsewhere:

20. Old Man's Child - Vermin
19. The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute
18. Love As Laughter - Laughter's Fifth
17. Fiona Apple - Extraordinary Machine
16. Constantines - Tournament of Hearts
15. Coheed and Cambria - Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV Volume 1: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness
14. Sunn O))) - Black One
13. Silver Jews - Tanglewood Numbers
12. High on Fire - Blessed Black Wings
11. The New Pornographers - Twin Cinema
10. Jesu - Jesu
9. Milemarker - Ominosity
8. Corrupted - El Mundo Frio
7. Red Sparowes - At The Soundless Dawn
6. Lightning Bolt - Hypermagic Mountain
5. Broken Social Scene - Broken Social Scene
4. Beck - Guero
3. Spoon - Gimme Fiction

To be perfectly honest, after 14 it gets kinda weak, I had to reach to remember six more really good solid albums. I just had to represent the non-metal crowd.

This was the list I sent off to FullMetal Racket, the best by far Aussie metal radio show.

10)Bolt Thrower - Those Once Loyal
9) As I Lay Dying - Shadows are Security
8) Children of Bodom - Are You Dead Yet?
7) Meshuggah - Catch Thirty Three
6) Soilwork - Stabbing the Drama
5) Darkane - Layers and Lies
4) DevilDriver - The Fury of Our Maker's Hand
3) Opeth - Ghost Reveries
2) Arch Enemy - Doomsday Machine
1) Swallow the Sun - Fragile

And the RoadRunner AllStars compilation would go in there however its multiple bands thus isnt allowed to by my choice.. But its still a decent cd.

Bah, if you want a specific band I'd go with maybe the new System of a Down albums or Avenge Sevenfold's City of Evil. Shut up, I liked the new A7X album! :(
