Topic: Best of 2010 so far... Posted: June 18 2010 at 18:23 |
Simple question, whats your favourite? For me the standouts this year have been Kayo Dot, Alcest, Ihsahn and Red Sparows, with my vote going to KD.

I've only listened to one album from this year so far-- The Black Rainbow by Coheed and Cambria, but I definitely intend to get Coyote.

I really enjoy Clivages, so it's my pick. The Kayo Dot album would be my second of the listed albums, I think, while Xing Sa's album Creation de l'Univers would probably be my first choice if it was present. It's a wonderful Zeuhl/fusion album.

I've only heard a few albums from this year, but my favourite remains the first 2010 album I heard, which is Univers Zero's Clivages. I think it's a very good album by a very good group. I like Coyote too.

| Creation de l'Univers is certainly an album for me to get .

I'm yet to hear Coyote, but so far my favorite is Ecailles De Lune. Beautiful album, I give it 4.5 stars.

I have 10 albums of this list, the rest I don't know (yet...). My top 3 of the ones I know is:
1. Anathema - We're here because we're here 2. Haken - Aquarius 3. Karnataka - The Gathering Light
Also the new Vanden Plas is very good! (not in the list)

I've voted for other: new Argos album Circles from 2010 is a killer record, one of my top 5 from 2010so far. Followed by Haken - Aquarius
Ephemeral Sun- Harvest Aorta
Disperse- Journey Through the Hidden Gardens
Penny's Twisted Flavour - Sketches
Mindgames- MMX
Mystery- One Among the Living
Myrath- Desert Call
very good year so far, great bands and exciting albums

I must say, some artists (or their labels) are trying very hard this year to make it almost impossible for me to get to listen to their music. Well, I guess arrogance begets ignorance.

This year started very good with my two favourite albums of 2010 being released in early 2010, but nothing as interesting came since then. I would rate One-Armed Bandit and Clivages with ***** (though I might rate them 9/10 on a decimal scale) and give **** to Coyote and Heavy Metal Fruit, which I enjoy. Nothing except for Alcest's album has attracted my attention so far, I'll try that.
