Now I know the year isn't over yet, but just in the first 7 months there have been TONS of great new music. This is the thread to talk about new cds, records, or whatever has been released this year.
My top favorites are probably

Odd numbers, beginning with #1 in Jan. 2010, will be original hip-hop, remix, beat tape and jazz productions; even numbers will be mixtapes of funk, soul, Brazilian, psych, jazz and other undefined forms of music from the Beat Konducta's 4-ton* stack of vinyl.[/quote]

thread for this already

People are suggesting Pendulum are the best of the year there!!!
Bad choice :colbert:
Only album from any band I listen to that has released an album in 2010, Immersion by Pendulum.

You are missing out. I'm not saying that to look cool, I'm saying it because I truly believe you have :smug:
Most of the 2010 stuff I'm waiting to be released. But the few that I have gotten are pretty good. But they are more of a default favorite since I don't have many 2010 albums yet.
Furdidurke - Native
[img]http://www.metal-archives.com/images/2/6/6/3/266327.jpg[/img]
Burzum - Belus
[img]http://www.metal-archives.com/images/2/5/8/4/258422.jpg[/img]
That is all I can remember right now.
i think i'm between the archandroid and the suburbs
I can't think of anything except from Parkway Drive's Deep Blue
it's the only album I've actually looked forward to buying and listening to in a long time.
Also the ghost inside's new album Returners is pretty kickass too
I get to see both bands play this year too, on the same night

That LCD Soundsystem album was pretty good from what I heard. I might download it and listen again.

I like it a lot; some of their songs remind of Bowie, especially "All I Want", but god damn it, their amazing.

From the albums I liked this year, these would probably be my favourites:
Arcade Fire - "The Suburbs"
Finntroll - "Nifelvind"
Frightened Rabbit - "The Winter of Mixed Drinks"
Jónsi - "Go"
Kate Nash - "My Best Friend Is You"
Pendulum - "Immersion"
Sleep Party People - "Sleep Party People"
Vampire Weekend - "Contra"
I didn't buy a whole lot of new music this year, but this one I liked a lot.

Sleigh Bells - Treats

This was a pretty epic album. I was surprised to hear it was considered noise.
Sir Lucious Left Foot
The Suburbs
LCD Soundsystem

its some what beyond classification, but it is pretty noise
[img]http://www.howtodestroyangels.com/img/preorder-cover.jpg[/img]
How To Destroy Angels EP - HTDA
[img]http://hangout.altsounds.com/geek/gars/images/2/inception.jpg[/img]
Inception Score - Hans Zimmer. Don't know if this really counts :P
So far,
[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c5/Everything_Remains_As_It_Never_Was.jpg[/img]
Eluveitie - Everything Remains (As It Never Was)
Is probably my favourite, followed up by Sabaton's Coat of Arms. I am, however, eagerly awaiting my copy of the new Blind Guardian album.
Really, so far this year, I've only been excited about Final Frontier from Iron Maiden, which hasn't been released except the El Dorado single, and Nightmare from Avenged Sevenfold, which did not live up to my expectations. I have been caught in the past lately, mostly System of a Down. If they got back together and made a 2010 album, then that would be the best part of the year.
I am extremely stupid for not posting this :ohdear:
