The Biggest Letdown? Yet they give 5-star ratings to it in almost all reviews.

compared to the other albums it's a let down.. but to me it's a let down anyway

+1 ^

There was alot of bands on there that I think should have been picked but oh well. Personally I think Melodeath should have gone to Noumena and Black Metal to maybe Old Man's Child or something.

 

[Blake]

and Swallow the Sun's "Ghost of Loss" should have gotten album of the fucking year or something....anything at all.

EDIT:Wait n/m it got second in Doom metal....didn't know that. sweet!

Yeah, well critics dont necessarily have the same views as the fans. Im assuming the awards were voted by fans.

Yep, and CoB wasn't on a list to choose, people had to type in what they thought was the biggest letdown.
