This year's list is much smaller than my previous year best of's. I only bought 20 albums this year less than half of last year. It actually makes making the list harder because almost all of the albums are deserving of top spots. My top two spots are almost interchangeable it was hard to choose a number 1:

1) Remembering Never - God Save Us
2) Bleeding Through - The Truth
3) Terror - Always The Hard Way
4) Unearth - In The Eyes Of Fire
5) Killswitch Engage - As Daylight Dies
6) Sick Of It All - Death To Tyrants
7) Sworn Enemy - The Beginning Of The End
8) All That Remains - The Fall Of Ideals
9) Icepick - Violent Epiphany
10) Eighteen Visions - Eighteen Visions
11) Hatebreed - Supremacy
12) Subzero - The Suffering Of Man
13) xBishopx - Suicide Party
14) Full Blown Chaos - Within The Grasp Of Titans
15) Anterrabae - And Our Heart Beat In Our Fingertips, Without Reason
16) Alove For Enemies - Resistance
17) Atreyu - A Death-Grip On Yesterday
18) Bury Your Dead - Beauty And The Breakdown
19) First Blood - Killafornia
