As we go into 2011, I decided to look back on the last decade, and try and put together a list of what I believe are the highest quality, and favorite releases of the previous decade.

I believe "best" is something of a misnomer, since people's opinions of quality are biased to their tastes. So a more proper title would be "Best Releases that I Enjoyed from 2001-2010".

1.Deströyer 666 - Cold Steel... For An Iron Age

2.Deathspell Omega - Fas - Ite, Maledicti, In Ignem Aeternum

3.Celtic Frost - Monotheist

4.Cobalt - Gin

5.Behemoth - Demigod

I think the title is self explanitory. Not in order of preference as it would change daily and I can't be arsed changing it around all the time!:) it's a bit of a mixture of all the stuff I like so I'm reasonably sure alot of the picks won't be everyones cup of piss.

1.Agalloch - Ashes Against The Grain

2.Alcest - Souvenirs D'un Autre Monde

3.Arsis - A Celebration Of Guilt

4.Be'lakor - Stone's Reach

5.Between The Buried And Me - Colors
