March Madness Best of the 90's Tourney DOOOOOOoooom (and some stoner)

Is Burning Witch worth looking into, with their 2CD release of all of their recordings? Or is it just noise, as in a precursor to SunnO)))?


Its pretty sick shit. Get it. It's not noise like SunnO

I'm going to maintain the madness to just these 3 tourneys. I wished to have had 4 total, but coming up another 64 quality albums from the 90's was a pain in the arse, so I said the hell with it. Anywho, once each of these respective tournaments draw to a conclusion, the 10 most voted for albums from each will return to do battle in a 32 album tournament of torment. What are the other 2 albums you ask?!!?

Well none other than the returning champs.

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.

Greg, besides Nevermore & Primordial what bands do you listen to? :dopey:
At my own peril, I'll assume this is a genuine inquiry and attempt an answer. In terms of genres, Power, Prog, Black and Death constitute 95% of my listening. To be more specific, some of my favorites from 2007 (no particular order):

Ajattara - Itse
Circus Maximus - Isolate
Darkestrah - Epos
Down - III: Over the Under
Drudkh - Estrangement
Iced Earth - Framing Armageddon
Megadeth - United Abominations
MGLA - Further Down the Nest/Mdlosci
Novembers Doom - The Novella Reservoir
October Falls - The Streams Of The End
Pagan's Mind - God's Equation
Pink Cream 69 - In10sity
Primal Fear - New Religion
Primordial - To the Nameless Dead
Redemption - The Origins of Ruin
Riverside - Rapid Eye Movement
Symphony X - Paradise Lost
The Morningside - The Wind, The Trees And The Shadows Of The Past
Wolves in the Throne Room - Two Hunters
