I stopped paying attention to Opeth after Still Life, but I'm hearing nothing but good things about their latest release. I think I might have to track down a copy.

I don't think I can even think of five things released this year, never mind ten.

It's hard to go wrong with any Opeth release, really. Ghost Reveries is great, it's a better offering than what Deliverance was and definitely one of my favourite Opeth albums (after Blackwater Park and My Arms, Your Hearse).

JUDAS PRIEST - ANGEL OF RETRIBUTION Dark Tranquillity - Character Opeth - Ghost Reveries Arch Enemy - Doomsday Machine Kamelot - The Black Halo
Angel of Retribution would make my all time favorite top 10 list, not just of 2005.

Bloc Party doesn't even count as a band. They are absolutely worthless masses of waste, throwing the same sound together with the same exact drum beat together to form 10-12 songs.
Not to mention their singer sounds like he's still waiting for his left ball to drop. I have never heard such a horrid vocalist.
