LJ are you sure your other half didn't vote?

List feels very random. I'm fine with that.

I don't care what anyone says I love this fuckin album

this is a great run actually im quite happy posting these for a while as there's some real classics coming tonight

Oh man, too low.

The riffs on that thing are ridiculous. I put Sons of Northern Darkness ahead of it but not by much. (And Damned in Black doesn't get the attention it deserves: "Against the Tide" is one of my fav Immortal tunes.)

the all time metal poll had "too low" after most posts (except those by bill magill and JF)

there would be something wrong if it wasnt like that though

The Call of Cthulow

I'm sorry.

Also the best/only non ridiculous Immortal album cover. It looks just like the album sounds, a colossal mountain of riffs.

124. Sepultura - Arise (216 Points, 4 Votes)

Has Sepultura's stock fallen in the new millennium?

The Call of Cthulow

Thread needs new subtitle.

On a different note, that whole Cascadian sound never resonated with me. It was effective at what it was doing, I guess, but every listening experience was kind of the same, regardless of album or even band. When I want atmospheric black metal that takes its time, I go to Germany: Lunar Aurora and Nagelfar.

And I honestly have grown to like Sepultura more over time. Schizophrenia, Beneath the Remains, and Arise, anyway. I used to see them as "background metal," unfortunately. I will say that a lot of their songs are drawn out longer than they need to be.

123. Corrupted - Llenandose de gusanos (216 Points, 4 Votes)
http://i.imgur.com/AlfPMXx.jpg

Disc 1 https://youtu.be/kjNxqTBSFTU

Disc 2 https://youtu.be/QAkXzfkHMFI

far too low imo

i don't think i've ever listened to an entire Corrupted album.

You should. and the ep's

also a label needs to do a 2xCD of all their 7" releases

that is #122

An album with a #1 vote coming up

Ordo ad Chao will never stop blowing my mind. It's the only album in my top 10 released after the turn of the millennium.

aw yea my boy

is there going to be a spotify playlist for this? i assume not everything is on there but for the stuff that is

Just catching up... Quite a few things I voted for showing up today (not Jute Gyte though)! Cool to see Abyssal this high up.

I voted for that Wolves In the Throne room record, good stuff. I also voted for Abyssal but I kept it low in my rankings. My ballot now would be 100% different, aside from maybe my top 4.

maybe forks will compile one treeship?

i hope so! <3 forks.

i'm happy to see liturgy on here already. there other stuff will place even higher, i think.

are any of yall going to see liturgy and opn on march 17th?

May I be the first to say TO LOW.

*TOO

I believe you are supposed to say Cthulow

but yes

the next 3 albums will get that call too I think

Jute Gyte are cool, I find that sort of avant garde stuff can easily be really boring but he manages to write like, riffs and stuff. Also the guy used to comment on a metal blog I read a few years ago, I wonder if he's aware of his fanbase on here.

the only people who have heard of him post here

119. Immortal - Sons of Northern Darkness (223 Points, 4 Votes)

There was a Jute Gyte thread at metal-archives -- that's how I first learned of him -- but I think it was in a weird place like the musician's subforum or something. Pretty sure he posted there too (it may have been his own thread for all I remember).

edit: oh hi Abbath and friends. That's about how far apart Heart of Winter and Sons were on my ballot. Hard to choose.

i think sons of northern darkness was like the second or third metal album i heard when i was trying to get back into metal in college (after in the nightside eclipse and leviathan iirc)

anyway obviously i was immediately converted forever obviously, what an unbelievably powerful record

lol obviously obviously

Even though he was (and presumably is still) a loathsome shit, that guy who created the ANUS site made me never able to unsee how the horizontal beam in Death's logo cross slowly migrated upward over the years.

That album cover brings back the serious memories, though. That was around the time I began learning that my teenaged interest in cheap horror movies and novels could be carried over to the musical realm. What an awakening.

xpost I love the Incantation cover of "Scream Bloody Gore." Kyle Severn is one of those drummers that wail like mad on their snares.
