GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums Of 1988

[no country for old wainds]

it only got 3 votes and didn't even make the top 30. neither did riot, pestilence, brocas helm, deathrow etc. that sounds like a travesty but when you see the albums above it it doesn't seem so bad tbh. so much classic shit. i'll post the full list tomorrow though, can't be fucked with that tonight. i will make the thread for the next year shortly.

Throw No Justice for Production out and put Fates Warning in.

if zabu hadn't made that last minute edit, it would've finished 8th. that's how close this was.

Didn't you say you had some crappy version of the album? The production is nowhere near as bad as you're making it out to be.

Anyways, strong list. I think it's a tragedy that Helloween didn't make the list, but I think 5 of my picks made the list, including the entire top 3, so I can't complain too much.

No there's only one version, I had said that perhaps I had a crappy version. Turned out the production is just a sterile lump of shit.

I'm just shitposting though, I don't hate the album or begrudge it the top spot. I don't care that much, I understand perfectly that not everything I want will make the lists.

Irae Melanox making it to the top 4 and beating some of the classics for this year is so fucking cringeworthy. And once again, very telling of this forum.

 

[CiG]

Get over it. Boo hoo people have different taste to my orthodoxy.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

get my balls out of your loose mouth, please.

 

[CiG]

Gay.

My contribution to this Adramelch controversy is inadvertent but amusing. If anyone suspects me of allegiance to the "in crowd", please consider that I'm probably the only one who even listed Ministry, never mind that I gave them the #1 spot.

I'm really not a big fan of this year in metal, so it didn't take much for Adramelch to get #4 from me.

"orthodoxy" lmao. That might actually mean something if it wasnt coming from the biggest try hard poser to ever grace this place. Lol, fucking lame.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Illusions doesn't maker it but Adramelech is in the top 5? Beats out Eternal Nightmare, South of Heaven and Punishment for Decadence?

 

[RadicalThrasher]

Stinks Razor missed the list, but at least they seemed to make a fair share of people's lists. Surprised about Incubus " Serpent Temptation" as well. I don't think anyone else even voted for them. Oh well, it was a great year

Says the guy trying to force a forum to prioritize the same albums they might find in any mainstream music magazine about metal.

I really don't understand why you think we should have favourite lists that follow the rules of your orthodoxy.
If you want to see all your classics represented, go to Mojo.com or something.

Yeah man, i love Violent Restitution. Bonafide thrash metal classic right there.

Haven't listened to that Incubus album in years though, maybe i should have given it another shot before voting but i dont even see it beating out some of the stuff in my HM list. Best year we've done so far imo.

Incubus made my HM, I meant to include Razor as well but had no room in the top 10 for them. In a different year they would have made it, like 2009.

And finally, Metallica's relevant albums are done and you fags can vote for something else.

 

[RedinTheSky]

South of Heaven beat Them ? Wow...

You seem to be forgetting about the upcoming GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums of 2003...



EDIT: That joke would have worked better if we hadn't actually done that year.
