There hasn't been a huge amount of albums I listened to this year, there is a lot I will evuantually get to. Like some on this list :
http://www.last.fm/user/ChrisCappello/journal/2010/12/15/43s9qg_top_50_albums_of_2010_with_lil'_reviews
But that will be a while. But from what I listened to, I'll do my top 5 Albums of 2010.
What is your AOTY 2010?
I narrowed it down to my top 5

5.
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
Kanye West
released November 22, 2010

This I will not go into much, I'm sure there was already discussions here.
I'll simply put it was not my favorite Kanye album, but still a good one.

4.
Recovery
Eminem
Released June 18, 2010

Okay I don't really have to say much hasn't this already been talked about enough.. all these talks about this year..sooooo much talk about eminem.
Well all I have to say is I really enjoyed this album also.

3.
That’s How We Burn
Jaill
Released June 2010

Ah Jaill signed under my favorite label sub-pop.
This band doesn't get too much attention..But I can see them blowing up, but from what I heard their shows get a very very low crowd which is a shame because they have good music, the album has since grown on me since first listening, now I enjoy it every time.
Jaill-The Stroller
Check em out if you haven't.

Stuck on Nothing
Free Energy
released May 4, 2010

Now this album I just started listening to fairly recently, but it is pretty amazing.
The albums first song is self titled giving a good representation of the band.
It has sounds that will easily remind you of some classic bands, thin lizzy being notable that all ties in well.

This album really surprised me, It got recommended to me and I didn't think I would like it, but I dl'd it and it was amzing at first listen.
First to last track I like this album, so then I dl'd their two ep's, but this stood out by far. If you haven't checked them out do so.

There's my current list from all of what 2010 releases I have listened to of course.

I don't listen to much new music, but I guess Imperfect Harmonies by Serj Tankian would be my pick.

2010 has been, simply put, an amazing year for music and I have bought loads of albums, though for me that's pretty normal. My top 15 albums of the year, in no particular order, are as follows:

New Albums:

The Black Keys - Brother
Interpol - Interpol
Arcade Fire - The Suburbs
The National - High Violet
Broken Social Scene - Forgiveness Rock Record
Band of Horses - Infinite Arms
Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest
Eels - End Times
Spoon - Transference
Foals - Total Life Forever
Local Natives - Gorilla Manor
Beach House - Teen Dream
Hot Chip - One Life Stand
Mumford & Sons - Sigh No More
LCD Soundsystem - This is Happening

Re-Issues:

Bruce Springsteen - Darkness on the Edge of Town (Deluxe Re-Issue)
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue, Sketches of Spain and Bitches Brew (Legacy Edition Re-Issues)
Bob Dylan - The Witmark Demos: 1962 - 1964

I could easily have a Top 50 list of albums I've purchased and enjoyed this year, but the above are by far my favorties. Here's to a great 2011 :)

@Browland Seriously man, I love 90% of the albums and bands you've put there. Mumford & sons and Foals are probably my favourite from the list.

Personally, I enjoyed listening to:
Gorillaz- Plastic Beach
Biffy Clyro- Only revolutions
The XX- XX
Kele- The Boxer

Hopefully 2011 will be just as good music-wise. Im looking forward to the new album by The strokes next year.
