Its almost the end of year, all those bullshit NME journos will be writing their bullshit lists for 2010. I trust efesters opinions infinitely more (well mostly - amps excluded), so whats your three best albums of the year? Good chance to find something I might not have listened to either

I'm going with

Beach House - Teen Dream

Foals - Total Life Forever

Deftones - Diamond Eyes

Pretty Hate Machine's Remasterred release was bloody fantastic. More relevant than the vast majority of current dross and given a whole new level of immersion.

This is what I've enjoyed album-wise from this year.

Soundgarden - Telephantasm

Skunk Anansie - Wonderlustre

Soulfly - Omen (Rise Of The Fallen is a f**king belter of a tune - crank it up to 11)

Slash & Co - Various

Bullet For My Valentine - Fever

Noisia - Split The Atom

Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare

Bad Religion - The Dissent Of Men

Volbeat - Beyond Hell/Above Heaven

The Qemists - Spirit In The System

Daft Punk - Tron Legacy Soundtrack

Hans Zimmer - Inception Soundtrack

gorrilaz - plastic beach (perfection)

arcade fire - the suburbs (sonically brilliant, most bands could only dream of taking their music where arcade fire takes theirs)

the national - high violet (brilliant, beautiful and haunting)

two door cinema club - tourist history (perfect pop)
