Top 100 Music Albums of 2010
by travelful

2010 snapshot.

Every album I listen to will be included on here, even if I hated it. You may also notice some higher rated albums in the comments, while some albums I hated are still featured in the chart. This is because I create my yearly charts as "snapshots" of the music scene from that year. From these I create my decade charts, where you will find no filler. Basically anything rated 60% or higher I recommend depending on your tastes.

other albums heard in 2010:

- Alex G's debut album 'Race' -5/10
- Autechre's 'Oversteps' - 5/10
-Bruno Mara's Doo Wops And Hooligans - 2/10
- Grimes ' Halfaxa' - 7.5/10
- Madlib's 'Madlib Medicine Show No 3 Beat Konducta In Africa' - 5/10
- Neil Young's 'Le Noise' - 4.5 -5/10
- Robert Plant's 'Band of Joy' - 5.5/10
- Samsara Blues Experiment - 'Long Distance Trip' - 6-6.5/10
- Sleigh Bells 'Treats' - 3/10
