Top 10 Metal Songs Released In 2010

The Top Ten

1 Sacred Worlds - Blind Guardian

I still can't say which song is better - Sacred Worlds or Wheel of Time, but this is symphonic metal at its best.
The perfectionists from Blind Guardian released one of their top 3 albums. All songs are amazing, including the mellow acoustic folk tunes "Curse my Name" and "War Of The Thrones".

2 Wheel of Time - Blind Guardian

3 Shades of Death - Accept

The best come back album ever - after 18 years of silence.
2010 was a year of German metal - Blind Guardian partly switched to symphonic metal and nailed it, Accept came back stronger than ever (with a new singer), Avantasia released one of my favorite songs from their discography - Death Is Just A Feeling.

4 Ironbound - Overkill

5 When the Wild Wind Blows - Iron Maiden

6 Undercurrent - Ihsahn

7 The Trend - Annihilator

8 Teutonic Terror - Accept

9 Bring Me the Night - Overkill

10 Screaming Eagles - Sabaton

The Contenders

11 Death is Just a Feeling - Avantasia

Jon Oliva (Savatage, TSO) is a guest singer and his gritty evil voice adds darkness to the Avantasia sound, and I like it. At times Jon Oliva sounds like Mephistopheles himself.

12 Farewell, Mona Lisa - The Dillinger Escape Plan
