Another good band with a sketchy past. Was much easier when those types just made shitey music.

Drudkh of course deny that the band is racist or nazi etc but that doesnt mean the members arent personally of course.

Good record anyway.

If a band says they arent racist or nazi etc then I guess you just have to take their word for it

but i dont think there is anything explicit in the lyrics.

like that record a lot

The 140-131 run is especially going to be FUN tonight folks so do hang around

Oh no! I had no idea that a band so reverent of nature could have any shady undertones! This album is completely beautiful. Every leaf in fullest relief! It is the forest as origin.

Drudkh are cool. Nokturnal Mortum bring more to the party but they do a great job evoking the woodland and the racial purity of Ukraine

You haven't listened to Drudkh!

I have! A bit. Siegbran, please resolve this argument

I believe the nazi accusations come from Roman's previous band Hate Forest.

Drudkh do not have any nazi themed lyrics as far as im aware. If they say they arent racist etc then you need to give them the benefit of the doubt.

I think Drudkh are better than Nokturnal Mortum personally.

and if Imago says he has heard them you need to give him the benefit of the doubt too!

Not heard this but I imagine it's something I may have enjoyed twenty years ago

Haha I tooootally voted for this

Everything imago says needs to be fully interrogated. This Blood Brothers is something I should like, but haven't been able to get into yet. Will try again soon

seandalai has just given me some SHOCKING NEWS btw

we might need to start over, lol

*gasp*

Wrong points totals for high placements?

If so, I'm going to be insufferably smug

I screwed up - set the ballot size wrong :(

Sorry everybody

More so than usual, I mean

he says he forgot to set the larger ballot size tho the winner is still the same. but I imagine it changes the order of a lot of things so I cant do anything until he sends me the full results which hes working on

dont be harsh though as he was movng house and you know how stressful that is and he still kindly got results to us to do the poll shich he didnt need to so i told him its no big deal and easy enough to start over.

I know you would all prefer the right results

I may only post the result and album covers tho to save time so could someone maybe volunteer to add the spotify links? that would be a great help

also lol louis I was gonna say...

I could post a Spotify link shortly after each one if you like

that would be a terrific help thank you

I reckon that when Sean has worked everything out, just post 300-141 as a list and then do the top 140 as before, even if things already seen crop up again

it does mean we wont finish on friday, I promised george id still do a large rollout so with us not likely to finish til next friday now we can go at a slower pace and start at 300 again.

I hope you all understand but its better to start over with the proper results

xp

well you and george can fight that over!

Top 200 then :p

250?

222

666

666 DIVIDED by the holy trinity - thrice the Satanic

Statistics are paramount. Metal is metal (i.e. No problem)

I hope everyone's listening to Cecelia and the Silhouette Saloon btw

Whatevers fine by me

I cant do anything until I see the results and then choose a cutoff myself. Poll runners perks equals starting somewhere a bunch of albums I like place lol.

But i think it might be better to take it into next week.

btw new thread or just start here?

If the orders not too different then I may be able to just post the rejigged list and continue from 140 or so. If its dramatically different we need to start from scratch, either here or on a new thread

You could start from scratch but not leave as much time for discussion of albums that have already appeared in this thread.

post both rollouts at once, 141 or the corrected list followed by 141 of the original list. That would really fuck us all up.

The true metal list and the false metal list.

yeah I cant do anything until I see the new results

but we can decide on a new thread or just restarting here (I know vast texts can interfere with search results) with this thread being deleted

Don't do that to my glorious post count
