Well, aye. But everyone's been asked to provide their top 10's based on preference.
Nobodies list is correct, nobodies is wrong. It's natural we'll have varying opinions and ratings of albums.

Yeah, I obviously haven't bothered with too many of this year's releases.

1. Gridlink - Longhena (aka the only grindcore album I actually really like)
2. Sun Kil Moon - Benji
3. Devin Townsend - Casualties of Cool (after Epicloud, which I personally thought was terrible, this was a pleasant surprise)
4. Bohren & der Club of Gore - Piano Nights

That's it.

and I'm skeptical of the new Swans and Lana Del Ray albums

8. Chicago Underground Duo - Locus

Honorable mentions: Jesus the Carpenter - Jesus the Carpenter, Eyvind Kang - Alastor: Book of Angels Vol. 21, OOIOO - Gamel, and the ones that got bumped off the list quoted above.
