GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums of 1997

[Baroque]

i mentioned that and obv max said their official site lists it as ‘97, not sure if official sites should be taken more seriously than discogs though

Indeed SX’s official site lists theirs as ‘97 as well, if we are doing this

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

dont care what their official sites say, I want to know when the album was first released.

edit: Looking for photos right now

My CD says '97 as well, though wasn't there a discussion earlier in the thread about how that really doesn't mean it was actually released that year? Who knows.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

sounds good enough for me i guess. I wonder why discogs and MA has it listed as '98?

Its me, boi. Time for that sleeperhold

it might be right though. Did anyone here buy it when it was released?

My version is a repress but it doesn't have a copyright date anywhere. In my booklet it says "recorded and mixed in autumn of 97." FWIW this reissue on discogs has the original copyright date as 98 but it's a Russian label so i'm not sure if it's legit or not

i'll be kinda surprised if it makes the top ten anyways so w/e

it will, its at 27 points and that's without one of the 10's i still havent counted

EDIT: my mistake, looks like only three guys voted for it for a total of 27 points.

hmmm what should i do with spikes list? just pull it out and count a top 9?

Yeah, working on it now.

Okay. Could have included some HMs but kind of pointless and pressed for time. Was actually hard to leave Cryptic Writings off.

October Tide - Rain Without End
Windir - Sóknardalr
Dismember - Death Metal
Edge of Sanity - Infernal
Metallica - Reload
In Flames - Whoracle
Amrageddon - Crossing the Rubicon
Borknagar - The Olden Domain
Emperor - Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk
Absu - The Third Storm of Cythraul

is this in order? You'd take Load over Cryptic Writings?

Label's website says 1998: http://www.redstream.org/Skepticism-Lead---Aether_RD1122.php

The 2003 cassette version on Discogs says ℗&©1998 which is also rather compelling.

@Dak dude is your list in order or not?

[TechnicalBarbarity]

I met don of the dead(Nunslaughter) in melb one time when i was about 23 it was at an Incantation gig,he coame and gave me a flyer for an upcoming Nunslaughter gig.I reckon it was because I was off my face on amphetamines,sweating profusely and hada 'anthems to the welkin..) hoodie on and striding triumphantly in a pair of green jeans.
