GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums of 2018

[Slammed]

I obviously don't take these polls serious enough because I don't give a fuck and mine wont change no matter when it's done, in fact I'll just copy and paste it.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

@TechnicalBarbarity would you start a game to play in the meantime?

how did i know you were going to be the first to respond (relax, just poking at you ... dont need a serious response)

Yeah of course, i was thinking we can do a few other years and come back to it. But again, its something that the majority of the people here would have to agree on.

 

[CiG]

I don't see the problem if this thread just remains open for another month or two. Imagine how fucked it will be if RNG gives us another 2010 year though.

Wait me? Krow responded first mang.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

.... there's just no way. I'll roll it again if its anything 2010 and up. That's something i was never planning on doing but i just cant do another one of these modern years again.

 

[no country for old wainds]

all of this is fine with me. just leave the thread open, if people wanna post their lists they can feel free, then you can come back with a deadline later on?

 

[crimsonfloyd]

I’m 100% in favor of leaving it open longer. Between the year threads and the discography threads, I’ve barely listened to any 2018 stuff. I definitely need more time to create a legitimate list. And I would suggest that even those who listened to a lot of 2018 material probably haven’t had time to process the albums that came out later in the year.

Yeah, this. I will do a list if left open indefinitely.

 

[no country for old wainds]

it also means we could do a few rounds of the 2018 mixtape game to get some recs before finalising our lists.

 

[jimmy101]

Wouldn't mind seeing a ranking game based on a year between 1985 - 1994.

 

[no country for old wainds]

we've done all of those except for '89 and '90.

 

[Baroque]

I like the 2010 years

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

ok so is anyone against leaving this thread open for a few more months? If not im just gonna go ahead and get the other one started later tonight or tomorrow.

I like the 2010 years

i'll just let the RNG decide i guess. If we get a 2010 year then i guess that's what we'll do. But i really hope its 82, 89 or something from the 90's this time around.

I listened to that Wiegedood earlier today actually. I’ve seen the cover a few times and was convinced it was some sort of atmo-garbage. I was wrong! It’s rather violent and pummelling.

Yea, it screams bohemian bullshit. The opening riffs was one of the toughest moments in 2018.

 

[Phylactery]

Glad to see someone else mention that Apognosis. It made my honourable mentions. Solid little EP.

I'm trying to get into some newer metal so I looked up Dying to Exist and its fucking awesome so far. It sounds like some melodeath that leans heavily to the power metal side of things
