I know metalreviews have their own top 5 in every metal genre and an overall top 5 in the reviews sections. All those threads are locked now.

So i'd like to see what everyone's top 10 or 15 or 20+ all metal albums for 2005 are. This includes all the metal genres: power/prog/true/gothic/black/death/nu/hard rock, etc ... everything that is metal.

If you can list 10 or 15 or even 20 or more, then do it. Feel free to give scores or give reasons why you have albums in certain spots. Also maybe list your disappointments and/or honorable mentions of 2005, if any.

As i am still contructing my own list, which has reached over 30 so far (i'll try to wittle it down to about 20-25), i am opening the floor for the rest of you to submit your lists.

There is no time limit for this thread and it is not just voting, you can have discussions as well. Let the countdowns begin, who's up first?.....

What's the big thing about Falkenbach? Far too cheesy and OTT for me.

As Aaron said, stop talking with little pictures, you're more intelligent than that.

No sarcasm... I wish I had that array of little pictures. I can only express myself using rolled eyes and winks...

But don't you have configure keyboard shortcuts to activate them as emoticons?

Anyway... who cares.

If there's one thing I refuse to do, it's learn keyboard shortcuts. Ctrl + Alt + Delete and Alt + Tab should be enough for anyone.
