400+?!? Sounds like it may be impossible to familiarize oneself with his music while having a full-time job. Luckily one can always pick and choose! But you're still young, so I'm sure you can get them all listened. My life may not be long enough to all of them any more, as lovely as they must be.Well he has 300+ solo albums and over a hundred more collaborative efforts, so uh... yeah, that’s the positive!His discography is just very time consuming, but someday I’ll hear them all. I swear!

But not a positive thing on your bank account.

This is a handy tool for Buckethead’s Pike series, which makes up the bulk of his discography. If you’d like information on his earlier albums(there are about 50, including Crime Slunk Scene), @CriedWhenBrucieLeft and I reviewed them all a few years ago.

Amputated is a band I wouldn't actively listen to, but they're fine and I can understand why Diesel likes them. I prefer my thrash with more melody than Power Trip has.
Atlantean Kodex doesn't give me a headache, so they're an easy pick over Death.
Between the Buried and Me, if only because I don't want Megadeth's debut album to go any further.
The last pair is the only one I had any difficulty with. Both songs/albums are great and I wouldn't mind if either of them got promoted. Buckethead is his usual noodly self, while Primordial delivers thick shadowy riffs.
Buckethead gets my vote because his song was more emotionally involving.

I´m about to order Electric Tears.
It's a really good album.

Ack, got here too late to vote. Thankfully, Power Trip will advance. Coincidentally I was enjoying it on the drive home from work!
Seeing Primordial losing is really disheartening folks.

The real disheartening result is not even in this thread 
They won one already.
This isn't the first time.
I'm sure it's yet to come.The real disheartening result is not even in this thread
In a one-sided match not seen since Pig Destroyer, Amputated is cut off at the knees by Power Trip. That's all for Amputated, and Power Trip next faces Marilyn Manson.
Atlantean Kodex wins a fairly healthy victory over Death, ending the longest minnow run yet in the game. Although Death is a minnow, they had so much momentum. Big win for the lesser known Kodex. Death, of course, is still active in the Match 10 stream.
Megadeth continues as the now-longest winning minnow, trouncing Between the Buried and Me. That's it for the loser, and next Dave & co. face Dimmu Borgir.
Buckethead defeats Primordial, again, fairly healthily. But although Where Greater Men Have Fallen has fallen, perhaps a greater Primordial album is in the Match 31 stream. You will decide!

Clear anti-pig bias. I can’t believe Iron Maiden hasn’t released an official statement about this yet.

Easiest round yet!
- The first 5 seconds of that Skyclad song are more interesting than anything on Danzig's record. Vocals are a bit weak, but the music is incredibly interesting.
- Hahahahahahahahaha Opeth
- LOL Rammstein
- HAHAHAHA LOL ROTFLMAO fuckin' Symphony X
I’m always going to vote against Danzig and Rammstein. Orchid, Divine Wings of Tragedy, and In Utero stand as some of my all time favorite albums. In Utero is probably the most “metal” sounding Nirvana album, specifically Scentless Apprentice.
