It’s the time of the year when we look back at what’s been good, bad and just plain ugly over the past 12 months. Yep, it’s time for the utterly pointless, but strangely fun Loucifer Speaks Awards 2011. Have your say via the questionnaire below.
In addition to having the opportunity to have your say, you will also be entered into our prize draw to win a copy of Bloodshot Dawn‘s “Slaves to the Lie” on CD. Bloodshot Dawn’s self-titled album will be out on 26th January 2012, so make sure you keep an eye on their official Facebook page for more details. Also, you can download a track from the new album by clicking here.
Anyway, we’ll be giving away THREE Bloodshot Dawn “Slaves to the Lie” CDs as a celebration of the new album. To be in with a chance of winning, all you need to do is answer the questions below. Simples!
(Please note that we are giving away their “Slaves to the Lie” CD, NOT the new upcoming album!)
If you’ve already submitted your answers, don’t worry – you’ll be automatically entered into the poll so there is no need to vote again.
Create your free online surveys with SurveyMonkey, the world’s leading questionnaire tool.
The results will be posted on the site at some point during the new year. 
Feel free to leave further comments below…
It’s time to see what you voted as the best (and worst) of 2010!
Winner: Iron Maiden
Honorable mentions:
Godsized
Halcyon Way
Dimmu Borgir
Obituary
Lou’s Note: Iron Maiden probably wouldn’t have been my first choice for band of the year (you should all know by now who my vote went to! 
). but no-one can deny that they are deserving of this title. Plus, “The Final Frontier” is an awesome album.
Winner: Iron Maiden – “The Final Frontier”
Honorable mentions:
ZORORMR – “Kval”
Black Label Society – “Order of the Black”
Avenged Sevenfold – “Nightmare”
Halcyon Way – “Building The Towers”
Dimmu Borgir – “Abrahadabra”
God Dethroned – “Under The Sign of the Iron Cross”
Lou’s Note: You guys must really like Iron Maiden! 
But, as I said before, “The Final Frontier” is a great album. Also, I’m pleased to see ZORORMR and God Dethroned in that list too …oh, and Dimmu Borgir… and Halcyon Way… and BLS…
Winner: Live Evil Festival
Honorable mentions:
High Voltage
Lamb of God @ Brixton
Bloodstock
Wacken Open Air
Download
Lou’s Note: Well, I can’t argue with that. I managed to get along to the Saturday of Live Evil (thanks to Dave & Jo!) and it was awesome!
Winner: Black Label Society – “Overlord”
Honorable mentions:
Dimmu Borgir – “Gateways”
Iron Maiden – “Final Frontier”
Abgott – “Lustmord”
Lou’s Note: “Overlord” is a fantastic video and is definitely worthy of your votes 
Winner: Halcyon Way – “Building The Towers”
Iron Maiden – “The Final Frontier”
Dimmu Borgir – “Abrahadabra”
Lou’s Note: A brilliant cover for a brilliant album!
Winner (or should that be “Loser”?): Avenged Sevenfold – “Nightmare”
Lou’s Note: “Nightmare” seems to be 2010′s Marmite album – some of you love it, others hate it
Winner: Corey Taylor – “X-M@$”
Lou’s Note: A fine choice! Although I did also like this suggestion: “Lou singing “merry x-mas””
And there you have it! If you don’t like the results and you didn’t vote… well, that’s just tough!
Maybe next year, eh?
