1st Place: THE DEVIL'S BLOOD - THE THOUSANDFOLD EPICENTRE
Album of the year for me. This one keeps getting better and better. An epic 74 minutes of state of the art metal. Gorgeous hooks, melodies and outstanding musicianship. Features the single "Fire Burning". See my full review at:http://trisectorman.blogspot.com/2011/11/devils-blood-thousandfold-epicentre.html
2nd Place: VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR - A GROUNDING IN NUMBERS
A beautiful and engrossing album from Hammill, Banton and Evans. I still miss saxman Jackson, but this is a great album guaranteed to give many hours of listening pleasure. Features the single "Highly Strung". Full review at:http://trisectorman.blogspot.com/2011/05/van-der-graaf-generator-grounding-in.html
3rd Place: ESBEN AND THE WITCH - VIOLET CRIES
A real grower and a goth pleasure. For a debut album, it's astonishing. Features the singles "Chorea", "Warpath", "Hexagons IV" and "Marching Song". Read my full review at: http://trisectorman.blogspot.com/2011/04/esben-and-witch-violet-cries.html
