An interesting year considering many of my favourite bands with a relative big discography released strong albums (Tiamat, Judas Priest, Cradle of Filth, Opeth, Moonspell, Metallica). Overall, it's not the best of years. The first three on the list are the definitive highlights.

1.Tiamat - Amanethes

2.Equilibrium - Sagas

3.Lifelover - Konkurs

4.Judas Priest - Nostradamus

5.Seventh Wonder - Mercy Falls
