Metal fans - what albums are you looking forward to most in 2011?

Just a simple question, what albums are you looking forward to that are expected to be released this year, even if there isn't a set date yet?

BQ - I know this has already been asked a ton, but what were your favorite metal albums of 2010?

Update:

Here are some I have heard about, most of which have already been mentioned.

Sirenia - Enigma of Life (Jan. 21st Eur.)

Odious - Skin Age (this was supposed to be released in Dec. 2010 but haven't been able to find it.)

Turisas - Stand Up and Fight

Amon Amarth - Surtur Rising

Lazarus A.D. - Black Rivers Flow

Ulver - Critical Geography

Testament - TBA

Draconian - TBA

Kauan - TBA

Opeth - TBA

Evile - TBA

Warbringer - TBA

The Agonist - TBA

Tantal - TBA

My Top 5 of 2010

Enslaved - Axioma Ethica Odini

Melechesh - The Epigenesis

Dark Tranquillity - We Are the Void

Death Angel - Relentless Retribution

Ihsahn - After

Update 2:

Wow I wasn't even aware there were going to be new releases from Megadeth, Dream Theater, Morbid Angel, Korpiklaani, Moon Sorrow, Kreator, Cynic, and even more. I'm really glad I asked this, looks like 2011 is shaping up to be a great year.

    are all slated to release albums in 2011, amongst others. I am sure not 100% of them will be new Studio LPs, but a good number will. Also, for fans of Death and Chuck Schuldiner, finally, 10 years after his death, the OFFICIAL, second Control Denied album, "When Man and Machine Collide" is supposed to finally be released. very exciting.

    BQ: My Top 10:

    1) Axioma Ethica Odini by Enslaved

    2) Relentless Retribution by Death Angel

    3) The Final Frontier by Iron Maiden

    4) After by Ihsahn

    5) The Wicked Symphony by Avantasia

    6) The Obsidian Conspiracy by Nevermore

    7) Ironbound by Overkill

    8) As Yggdrasil Trembles by Unleashed

    9) Annihilator by Annihilator

    10) Ylem by Dark Fortress

    @Dave K..nice call on the Melechesh album. I was not as impressed with it as some of the earlier stuff, but the tile track is pure Epic Win. I have not heard the Dark Tranquility album yet.

    I guess everyone needs to squeeze out one more album before the world ends in 2012, lol.

    It's not exactly a Metal album unless you qualify Gothic Metal. ASP's latest was originally suppose to be released the day I arrived in Berlin Germany in Sept (which would have been cool as a MoFo to get then) but has been held back till early this year.

    BQ: Top 5

    Avantasia - Angel Of Babylon

    Black Sun Aeon - Routa

    Equilibrium - Rekreatur

    Mago de Oz - Gaia III Atlantia

    The Vision Bleak - Set Sail To Misery

    Megadeth's allegedly releasing a new album, and so is Cynic. Those are the two I wanna hear. Well, that and the new Amon Amarth album.

    I don't follow what's going on these days to be honest. I'll look around occasionally, but I rarely find anything worth my time. I am looking forward to the next Deceased album though, whenever that comes out.
