Yep, outside of my own nominations, these are the best albums we had this game imo. Brutal finale, I almost don't want to vote :D Gotta be Annihilator.

In the news: "All the fish in the aquarium flew, a customer fainted on the spot" :lol: :lol: :lol: Sadly the actual event wasn't funny at all, but damn this head me in tears :D

Those are probably next in line for me too. Ever notice how much "hell" is in this album? -Hell is Thy Home -Condemned to Hell Both Spiritual Dictator and Majesty have "hell" in their choruses, and Blood Religion has that callback to Hell is Thy Home in the verse... That's half the album :D...

It's a pretty big gap for me between them and the others. Which are the 3 you like less?

Majestic is the worst of the good Gamma Ray albums, which is still good. I think How Long, Revelation, and Spiritual Dictator are some of their worst songs, but the rest mostly make up for it. Very happy to see Alien here, it's a crazy album. I almost picked it myself, but I didn't want to...

In the ancient year of 2017, school took the nerd classes to university, on a day all about reassuring us that we're much cooler than the non-nerds. One of the presentations was passed by some astrophysicist, who, for some reason I don't remember (his presentation must've had something to do...

Every once in a while I get a strong urge to hear this album...

Well this is clearly the church of lies if Dreamweaver didn't make it Very easy votes for Testament and Vektor (I think most matchups will be easy decisions for me actually).

Irrelevant, but, I wonder how well the second (actually metal) half of Universal Migrator would have done in the 2000 vote, just on the weight of it featuring Bruce (and Russell Allen). I can see it finishing above The Dark Ride, maybe even Resurrection.

Didn't know about this, I'll have a read!

I do that too, very rarely, but it feels like once the question mark is there, the damage is already done... :( And I would still need an additional solution for the Hebrew case because no capital letters. I know I share this sentiment and I'm sure we're not alone in this. I've seen people...

I like it too, but, if one of them has to go... It's biggest purpose is being a middle step between a comma and a colon, and you can get by just fine using those instead. It's useful, it's also pointless. At least, it should be... There's another issue I have, if a colon is two periods on top...

Enemies of Reality is in good company here with DoD, The Link and Tribe. Most fans probably have it in the bottom 3 of Nevermore albums. It was in mine too, but out of all of their albums, it's the one that grew on me most. I love its manic sound, with the weird vocal harmonies. Seed Awakening...

If English was a sane language, the ';' would have been called something like "period and comma", or, even better, "dot and comma". Why even better? Because now that can be shortened to "dot com" = ".com", and then instead of writing forum.maidenfans.com you could write forum.maidenfans;. If...

Come on people, don't kid yourselves. Train of Thought is miiiiiles better than DoD. Easily verifiable by comparing the sixth track on each album.

Don't let that stop you from pleasing your ears with it :P

I actually really like Gojira, but this album does sound kinda dry. I never knew how big the leap from this to From Mars to Sirius is.

I also find it funny how PoS have a dramatic sound you'd expect in a prog concept album, and then in some songs they just go full Faith No More, especially Gildenlow's aggressives are so similar to Mike Patton's. Go listen to the bridge of Beyond the Pale at 5:02 and then to The Real Thing at 2:47.

Right, I forgot to mention the production, it's really bad. It's been their Achilles Heel ever since. I think the songs are plenty memorable but I'll agree that it isn't as rifftastic as the 90's stuff (hell, now that I think about it, everything that came after is better about this). The rhythm...

And if I'm already here, March of the Fire Ants is the best Mastodon song and I will die on this anthill. And if I'm already Mastodoning: https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/why-the-star-spangled-banner-should-be-replaced-by-mastodons-crusher-destroyer-as-our-national-anthem
