[xplosive59]

As 2009 is drawing to a close i thought it would be a good idea to see what your favorite album and song releases of the last 10 years were (1999 - 2009 not 2000 - 2009)...

mine are (albums)

the blackening Machine Head, brave new world Iron Maiden , fury of our makers hand Devildriver, Archetype Fear Factory, Wrath Lamb of God

 

[Jory]

Traced in Air - Cynic
Animals as Leaders - Animals as Leaders
The Hidden Words - Fell Silent
Fear of a Blank Planet - Porcupine Tree
The New Black - Strapping Young Lad

Those 5 stick out. I'm sure I'm missing some awesome titles though.

Wrath - Lamb of God
Shogun - Trivium
Chimaira - Chimaira

Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth
Fair To Midland - Fables From A Mayfly What I Tell You Three Times Is True

Animals as Leaders is awesome, and i need to get em Cynic albums.

Your kinda missing:

Meshuggah - Catch 33
Meshuggah - I
Opeth - Stille Life
Opeth - Blackwater Park.

Aw man I forgot Meshuggah and Opeth. Pretty much everything they've released since 99 has been kickass.

Right next to discovery by daft punk.

 

[Gildan Bladeborn]

I couldn't even begin to make a list of only 5 albums/songs and hope to label them as "the best" - almost all of the music I own was released in the last decade, and I make a point of not buying anything I don't absolutely love.

Within Temptation and Nightwish would probably be somewhere on the list though.
