Carcass v. Arghoslent in the first round?! Damn, that's not fair.

 

[einride]

wildhoney..?

 

[Reign in Acai]

It's the most popular Tiamat release of the nineties. Had to go with the album the majority is to most have likely heard. Though, probably not a wise choice in that this is where they began to evolve.


Oh well, can't change it now.

 

[einride]

i guess. it's very extremely not death metal though

Jerry, good work here. I'm voting for Cynic to win the entire thing. Unless it comes head to head with None So Vile, then I might reconsider.

I chose not to vote for a band, just because I liked them. Instead, I only voted when I actually owned at least one of the CDs in the match up.

Voted even if I didn't know shit about the matchup. But who the fuck cares, Edge of Sanity will come out on top unless you've all gone fucking insane. And, come to think of it, by the amount of votes I see for Demilich over Therion, I'm starting to think you all have already fucking lost your minds.
