Metal Assault Top Ten #1: Week of October 12th 2010

October 10th 2010

By Aniruddh "Andrew" Bansal

So, today is 10/10/10 and on this occasion we have decided to launch our own Top Ten. From now on, every Sunday, we'll put together a list of the top 10 songs from among the albums that are to be released the following Tuesday. With as many as 33 albums releasing on the coming Tuesday i.e. October 12th 2010, the first ever Top Ten list turned out to be quite a task, hence I took it upon myself. Rest assured, I have listened to each and every album in its entirety, in order to come up with a fair and comprehensive list that spans across all sub-genres of metal. Here's my final list starting at #10 and counting down to #1.
