Demilich sucks, I can't stand those vocals.
A few controversial opinions I have: Tool sucks, Atheist is boring, and Mastodon sucks (for the most part).
Discouraged Ones is Katatonia's best album.
Agalloch has been downhill ever since Pale Folklore (which is a great album), but I'm hoping their new album will be a return to form.
You all can go ahead and attack me now.

The Mantle is pretty clearly their best, but I have very high hopes because I loved the style they went to on Ashes.
I'd mainly love to see them explore more with sounds like that found on Bloodbirds II. That very well might be their best song overall.

Dude there's nothing wrong with knowing your own taste. Some people just need to polish their rhetorical skills.

I find Ashes Against The Grain just as good as The Mantle, I don't think they could do any wrong. The new album thats set to release might be my favourite of 2010.

it'd be more controversial to say that you enjoyed Bal Sagoth's works. they arent exactly loved by the majority of metal listeners familiar with them.

I have no idea whether this is controversial or not, as this band has rabid followers and haters, but Sadistik Exekution is pretty mediocre.

I think it just comes down to which style of theirs is liked most.
Ashes Against The Grain drew heavily from more rock based sounds (especially post-rock, which they actually managed to translate into a 'heavier' style very well - better than any so called post-metal bands) and I tend to prefer their neo-folk based sound most which obviously was what The Mantle focused on.
Weird vocals are weird, but anyway imo they give the album a whole different dimension.
Agreed. Although Tonight's Decision and Viva Emptines are awesome too.
I also think that Ashes Against The Grain is in the same level. Let's see what they bring with their new album this year.

I've always thought Ancient were a ton of fun. Most people seem to hate them. But how can you not like them with catchy Halloween tunes like this?

Horrible, indeed!
I like their first album and early EPs. Skip to 1:25.

Slumber Of Sullen Eyes by a mile for me. Every song is memorable, while Nespithe kind of just runs together.
