GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums of 1994

[Phylactery]

I actually have no idea how I’m supposed to do this! One of the best years ever in terms of having so much worthy stuff to consider.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Added Sodom to the list. Forgot they put out a pretty solid album that year.

don't have that one and don't remember too much about it. Sounds like i need to change that.

Its pretty good man. Don't think its better than their stuff before it, but worth checking out.

Having a ton of fun with this year. So far I've noticed that:

-Edge of Sanity's Purgatory Afterglow is simultaneously better and worse than I remember. Not sure how.
-The last bonus track on Tales from the Thousand Lakes still cracks me up with its last part straight out of the fucking Peanuts theme song. Good album though.
-Machine Head's Burn My Eyes still holds up IMO. One of the few albums that have survived the gateway phase with flying colors.
-You fucks aren't putting Grave - Soulless in your lists ?!

1994
lm not completely happy with everything so l may edit
the first half of 94 was a mash. a mushroom mash. the second half l got the fuck out of oz, and went backpacking through the middle-east.
l returned to oz 6 years later...music wasn't high on my agenda and as ........... said - l can't find their name - after the previous few years, the brutal years l like to call them, it decided to start and die real quick.
l usually get flack for being too one dimensional but, l see only 2 real dm album's in my list, so fuck you

Pretty sure these are both 1995 releases.

well, the single for house by the cemetery is 94, the ep is 95 so my bad but, frammenti di vita is defo 94

as for regurgitate or agathocles, lm a fan of the latter but don't know the former. razor sharp daggers and their mincecore history discs are great
l used to own a bunch of their 7 inches but not no more

 

[CiG]

I looked up the Cripple Bastards EP and every source seems to say 1995.

 

[Omni]

RYM says 1994.

 

[no country for old wainds]

RYM is the least reliable of all sources and should be ignored

 

[Sirjack]

this is the 7 inch from which my pick came

RYM is dogshit.

That's not exactly definitive proof but I guess it doesn't really matter, nobody else is voting for it as far as I know.

 

[Sirjack]

it's their website and its them writing it, so if that's not proof then what is

 

[Talos of Atmora]

I decided to add Tsuki no Toge by Gargoyle to my list. Simply too good to leave out.
