Top 100 Albums of the 2010s

I joined Metal Storm in late 2010 and throughout the years I have discovered so many incredible bands and albums thanks to this site.

My taste in music has changed considerably during this decade so putting together this list was not an easy task. This is the result but I will continuously update it as I revisit albums and discover new ones.

Let's see what the next decade brings! \m/

1.SubRosa - More Constant Than The Gods
2.Chelsea Wolfe - Abyss
3.Nhor - Within The Darkness Between The Starlight
4.Trees Of Eternity - Hour Of The Nightingale

You Know It's Technically 2011-2020, Right?

To explain the title, there is no year 0, regardless of what Ghost may tell you. Thus, the first decade was years 1-10, instead of 0-9. So then it would be 11-20, and so on. But I know that would imply that Paranoid is a 60s album, which we cannot have.

So now that all the cool kids are doing it, here is my top 100 albums of the "decade", most of it might be a bit too mainsteam, most of it you'll find on others' lists, and so on. Restricted to one album per artist/band (including collabs), ordered alphabetically.

1.Abyssal - Antikatastaseis
2.Agalloch - The Serpent & The Sphere
3.Akhlys - The Dreaming I
4.Alcest - Écailles De Lune
5.Altar Of Plagues - Teethed Glory & Injury

Best Of 2010-2020 By Mz

The best of 2010-2019. At the end it tuned out to be less diverse than what I thought it would be in terms of musical genres, with mostly black and death metal record filling the spots.
Recommendations more than welcomed.

1.Sutcliffe Jugend - Blue Rabbit
2.Emptiness - Nothing But The Whole
3.Ulcerate - The Destroyers Of All
4.Schammasch - Contradiction
5.Lorn - Subconscious Metamorphosis

The 2010s: Apothecary's Favorites

Self explanatory. Favorite metal albums from this current decade. It's probably going to be mostly black, doom, and drone related type albums, as that's mostly what I listen to, but not entirely. Full streams provided when available.

Hopefully this'll be something to return to nostalgically when I'm 40 and we can access the Internet neurologically while we sleep.

1.
2.Ihsahn - After
3.The Body - All The Waters Of The Earth Turn To Blood
4.Enslaved - Axioma Ethica Odini
5.Triptykon - Eparistera Daimones
