The Official Best Albums of 2006 Thread..(Many merged threads)

[Geniva]

Anybody have any opinions? I just realized I haven't really heard any rap/hip-hop albums from this year, but I'm looking to get my hanRAB on some. I've heard conflicting opinions on Idlewild, and I'm wary about a lot of the other suggestions I've heard.

So, give me suggestions.

Best albums are:

1) Blind Guardian - A Twist in the Myth.
2) Iron Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death.
3) Edguy - Rocket Ride.

Average Releases:

Just one, Grave Digger - Liberty or Death.

Disappointing:

Rhapsody of Fire - Triumph or Agony.

I haven't yet heard Amon Amarth's 'With Oden on your Side', so I can't comment on it. That's about all.

Black Keys along with Aloha, The Preset, and Robin Thicke fell just short of my top 20. Perhaps I should just make it a top 25..

 

[putnis]

Did anyone else listen to new one from Rx Bandits? It's called And The Battle Begun, it is rather good.

 

[kNotCrazy]

The Sword - Age of Winters
Ultraphallus - Lungville.
Kalas - S/T

Three awesome albums of 2006.

 

[Umm Zekiya]

It leaked, and it's one of the best albums I've ever heard.

 

[arthur d]

Jon left after the album was recorded. They did choose Blake for a reason though, so I'm sure he's just as good.

 

[Dagger_SA]

The Sufferer and the Witness - Rise Against
State of Emergency - The Living End (Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd Blain sees them live in October)
