Top 10 albums since the beginning of the new millennium

I'm going to cheat and do a top 10 from 2000-2009 (in no particular order)

1: Iron Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death
2: Iron Maiden - Brave New World
3: Opeth - Ghost Reveries
4: Dream Theater - Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence
5: Dream Theater - Train of Thought
6: Devin Townsend - Terria
7: Spock's Beard - V
8: Transatlantic - Bridge Across Forever
9: Moon Safari - Blomljud
10: Symphony X - The Odyssey

I'm sure I forgot a ton.
 
With "1 album per artist/band" rule and in chronological order it should look like this:

  • Iron Maiden - Brave New World (2000)
  • Tool - Lateralus (2001)
  • Electric Six - Fire (2003)
  • Muse - Black Holes And Revelations (2006)
  • Metallica - Death Magnetic (2008)
  • Rammstein - Liebe Ist Fur Alle Da (2009)
  • Dethklok - Dethalbum II (2009)
  • Mastodon - The Hunter (2011)
  • Van Halen - Different Kind of Truth (2012)
  • Megadeth - Dystopia (2016)

Honorable mentions: Halford - Resurrection (2000), Judas Priest - Angel of Retribution (2005), , Clutch - Psyhic Warfare (2015), Blind Guardian - Night At The Opera (2002), Machine Head - The Blackening (2007), Seasick Steve - I Started Out With Nothing And Still Got Most Of It Left (2008)

With honorable mentions it still looks pretty week list, I probably forgot some artist/band...
 
Wow this is such a tough one, some of my favorite albums ever have come out in the last 16 years.

1. Motörhead - Inferno (2004)
2. Motörhead - Bad Magic (2015)
3. Iron Maiden - Brave New World (2000)
4. Sodom - M-16 (2001)
5. Iron Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death (2006)
6. Motörhead - Aftershock (2013)
7. Iron Maiden - The Book of Souls (2015)
8. Manilla Road - Spiral Castle (2002)
9. Vader - Litany (2000)
10. Saxon - Lionheart (2004)
 
Oh, fun. Lists! Here we go.

1) The White Stripes - Elephant (2003)
2) Opeth - Ghost Reveries (2005)
3) Iron Maiden - Brave New World (2000)
4) Iron Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death (2006)

6) Baroness - Yellow & Green (2012)
7) The Gathering - if_then_else (2000)
8) Blind Guardian - At the Edge of Time (2010)
9) The Strokes - Is This It? (2000)
T-10) Green Day - American Idiot (2004)
T-10) Sky Ferreira - Night Time, My Time (2013)

(I cheated and gave 11 by claiming a lame "tie" at 10. I didn't want to leave Sky off. So sue me.)

I can't tell you how much it warms my heart to see zero mentions of Kanye in this thread. I love this forum.

King's X - XV
Sigur Rós - ( )
