[HamburgerBoy]

It makes me sad how few people have mentioned Slauter Xstroyes.

I suspect that a lot of people are biased against their bizarre band name and haven't heard the album.

 

[CiG]

I just don't own it yet.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

That one's just not as good as Winter Kill.

 

[Vilden]

It's worse but still great. Made my HMs atleast.

How can you be biased against a band for having the second best band name of all time?

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

I just wonder which decision had more drugs involved: the naming of that band, or Riot's choice of mascot.

 

[CiG]

Or Gezolucifer's choice of stage dress.

That one's just not as good as Winter Kill.

It's less consistent considering it's a compilation of several years' worth of stuff, but the highlights are easily better than those of Winter Kill.

how do you pronounce "Xstroyes" anyways?

My body is ready for the 2017 round. So many epic records this year and I think a few of my choices will surprise people.

@no country for old wainds btw is 2016 included in the possible choices for a randomly generated next year or are we avoiding that year for these games?

I can't spend all night on this tonight. Here's a starting point:

1) Death - The Sound of Perseverance
2) Droÿs - And If...
3) Liquid Tension Experiment - s/t
4) Pathos - Uni Versus Universe
Symphony X - Twilight in Olympus
Witchery - Restless & Dead
Pariah - Unity
Extol - Burial
Dark Order - 5000 Years of Violence

Whiplash - Thrashback
Metallica - Garage Inc.

6 days until the deadline, I'd hate to see your list not included man. Also reminder that Pariah isn't a 1998 album.

we already did 2016, it was a somewhat primitive form of the game but i've included the results in the master thread so. maybe i'll do it again after all the other years are done.

 

[CiG]

Oh I think I remember that actually. Okay cool.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Can someone link me to the 2016 thread?

 

[CiG]

I think this is the one dude.

To my knowledge he will still include my list, with the other albums getting equal points, and he would disclude Pariah. I’m ok with all of that

 

[CiG]

Oh okay fair enough.
