I'll do the same as fotmbm and paste my lists from Audioscrobbler:

Last week's top artists:

Nokturnal Mortum
Death SS
Темнозорь
Overkill
Saint Vitus
Evoken
Kreator
Nokturnal Mortum
Runemagick
Coroner


Most played artists since August last year:

Iron Maiden
Dark Tranquillity
Nokturnal Mortum
Bathory
Katatonia
Anathema
Tiamat
Candlemass
At The Gates
Bruce Dickinson

All time... Fuck knows. Agalloch would be in there in addition to the above for sure.

 

[MFJ]

Jay, your passion for Verisaekeet makes me a happy man.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

I guess I'll do the Audioscrobbler thing as well:

This week:
Bathory
Nokturnal Mortum
Iron Maiden
Bruce Dickinson
Metallica
Drudkh
Dark Tranquillity
Summoning
Deströyer 666
Katatonia

Since February the seventh:
Katatonia
Deathspell Omega
Iron Maiden
Bathory
Dark Tranquillity
Judas Iscariot
Immortal
Summoning
Deströyer 666
Metallica
Burzum
Weltmacht
Nokturnal Mortum
Guns N' Roses

I really can't explain how the hell Judas Iscariot got in my top ten list, as I consider Akhenaten to have a rather generic black metal project going on (with the exception of the EP "Dethroned, Conquered and Forgotten" and the album "Heaven in Flames".

I suppose the list of bands in my profile does more justice towards my "fave of all time" list:
At the Gates
Bathory
Bruce Dickinson
Burzum
Dark Tranquillity
Darkthrone
Deathspell Omega
Deströyer 666
Gorgoroth
Immortal
Iron Maiden
Katatonia
Kreator
Metallica
Nokturnal Mortum
Summoning
Weltmacht

2015 will rule because we'll have hoverboards (according to back to the future pt. ii)

speaking of that ... John DeLorean just passed away today. The designer of the DeLorean ... he was a balls out guy, read a biography on him some years ago.

 

[NAD]

That sucks. Those cars kick so much ass, I've always loved them but just recently (like 3 weeks ago) read up on them about why they were so amazing. Perfectly livable and reliable supercar, pretty cool.

That's awesome, 'cause I was just looking at your list the other day thinking "holy frog, this guy sure has some excellent fucking music taste*, but eh what's Judas Iscariot doing up there? " I also reckon they're very generic indeed.



* Let's not get into Guns 'n' Roses

Well, thank you!

And consider Judas Iscariot removed from my playlist...

 

[MFJ]

Judas Iscariot has a couple songs that are above-average, excellent black metal, but as for the other heap of albums that were released, it's nothing special.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

using the audioscrobbler as of March 13th (although I turned it off in the last few days):

6 Primordial
7 Empyrium
8 Nokturnal Mortum

Wow, that is a great collection of bands there, Allure. I guess I should take note and do the following:

- Listen to more early Diabolical Masquerade because I really think it's overrated as hell
- Listen to more of The Chasm because their latest album rules, but the other one sucks
- Find out who the hell this 'Quo Vadis' is

 

[speed]

I forgot GBYE, A SIlver MT Zion, Dredg, Aerogramme, Radiohead, Sigur ROs, Coil, Ulver, and The Allman BRos. ALl these non metal bands I listen to as much or more than metal.

Did you mean underrated? 'cuz yeah, them albums have some damn good songs on em!

- Find out who the hell this 'Quo Vadis' is

Tech-death from Canada, supposedly very good. not really my kinda thing, but i'd recommend you start with "Day Into Night".

 

[NAD]

I think by "overrated" he meant "boring as fuck" because that's pretty much the correct description.
