Best Albums of 2010

I'd probably have to say:

B.O.B - The Adventures of Bobby Ray - a great contemporary Hip-Hop record.

Followed closely by...

Eminem - Recovery.

Jamiroquai - Rock Dust Light Star is good, but can't quite cut it.

Tucks
 
i would go with slash - self titled

best songs of it IMO :

Crucify the Dead (feat. Ozzy Osbourne)
and one of the songs of the year imo Back from Cali (feat. Myles Kennedy)
 
All though this is technically cheating i'd like to say:

Weezer - Pinkerton (Deluxe Edition)

Otherwise I would say:

The Virginmarys - Cast The First Stone
 
Albums I've enjoyed so far:

Gogol Bordello - Trans-Continental Hustle
Girl Talk - All Day
Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles (II)
Titus Andronicus - The Monitor
Arcade Fire - The Suburbs

Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles (II)
Titus Andronicus - The Monitor

are mine lovable
 
Flying Lotus - Cosmogramma

Just havnt been able to not listen to anything by Flying Lotus on a day by day basis.

Gold Panda - Shiner

Been through the album a couple of time and just found new stuff on it which i cant believed i missed.
 
For me

The ghost inside - Returners
Bring me the horizon - There Is A Hell Believe Me I've Seen It, There Is A Heaven Let's Keep It A Secret
Devil sold his soul - Blessed & Cursed
Parkway drive - Deep blue

Only ones i can think of ive really enjoyed and better than i was expecting.

Make Do and Mend - End Measured Mile

So is it "New records by artists I love" or "Great records I've heard this year"? As always, these threads tend to fall into both of these categories.

For example, I love the Manics but their new record isn't even close to being one of their best albums, never mind one of the best this year. Similarly, Slash is great but his solo record has a handful of good songs on it and even if it were choc full of awesome songs, that version of Paradise City with Fergie and Cypress Hill is enough to ensure that I never makes it onto anyones top records of 2010 list.
