Papa's Honorable Mentions of 2003 or Some That Just Didn't Quite Cut the Mustard 2003

[Papa Josh]

Before I post my Top 25 of 2003, I thought I'd post the cds that I spent long hours debating. These are great cds, some better than others, and perhaps had I not heard so many good cds this year, some of these would've actually made the 25.

Negura Bunget 'N Crugu Bradului
Nevermore Enemies of Reality
John Arch A Twist Of Fate
Katatonia Viva Emptiness
King's X Black Like Sunday
King Diamond The puppet Master
Lamb Of God As The Palaces Burn
Darkthrone Hate Them

Negura Bunget 'N Crugu Bradului
Nevermore Enemies of Reality
King Diamond The puppet Master

Not in the Top 25? and just because we promote variety amongst our writers, then ->

OK I only have a Top Ten list, and these are the ones that didn't quite cut the top 10, although they are all phenomenal. Of course, if I did a Top 16, then these would be the next 6:

11. Iron Maiden - Dance of Death
12. Windir - Likferd
13. Evergrey - Recreation Day
14. Elenium - For Giving For Getting
15. Bathory - Nordland II
16. Extol - Synergy

BY THE WAY, CAN WE ALL AVOID DICUSSING OUR ACTUAL YEAR END FINAL RESULTS UNTIL RC PUBLISHES OUR LISTS. WE DON'T NEED ANYMORE DISTRACTIONS THANKS!!!!

BOO!!! HISS!!!

 

[Papa Josh]

Oh, I'm sure I will get some shit for it, oh well, comes with the territory. :Smug:

Pfft, not on this forum mate. By the way, you're going to laugh at my paragraph write up of The Puppet Master.

EDIT: ooh, did I just give something away?

 

[Black Winter Day]

that's almost as bad as dreamlord giving up the NILBOG secret from Troll 2

 

[J.]

Dude, if they didn't figure out NILBOG within 30 seconds, something's wrong.

 

[Black Winter Day]

hahaha... or as long as it took you to detect my oozing sarcasm

 

[HarmonyDies....]

You should've put a smiley at the end of the Troll post to shwo you were pointing out sarcasm.

While we're on the subject of RC's ALbums of 2003, any idea when this will be posted? I dying to find out what the other team members have chosen.

So come on JayKeeley, pull your fucking finger out and get it sorted...

...please tell me that you are not still waiting for certain team members to send in their top ten? If this is true [/STERN VOICE ON] Shame on you boys [/STERN OFF]

 

[NAD]

Oy! Mine was sent in last week!

I'm anxious for other team member's lists too, and also the combined top 10, my guess for #1 spot is one of two albums... both are in my top 10.

 

[JayKeeley]

Yeah still waiting on one but I've been assured it's coming in tonight.

"combined top 10" eh? Never thought of that, but good idea matey. If you guys buy me a beer one day, I'll get the top ten lists published tonight. (Kinda busy these days with my sister visiting us from Hong Kong...but I shall try my bestest).

 

[NAD]

...RC had a combined top 10 last year...?

Or at least 'gugs had that thread about it, maybe it was unofficial.

There's no question about me buying you a beer someday, maybe even two...

 

[ChiefB]

Oy! Mine was sent in last week!

*COUGH!*

I sent my selection in on Satuday...oops I always have a bad habit of doing things closer to deadlines.

 

[JayKeeley]

...RC had a combined top 10 last year...?

Or at least 'gugs had that thread about it, maybe it was unofficial.

Yeah, that's right, it was a thread...

 

[Ayeka]

11. Iron Maiden - Dance of Death

You'd better have fucking good reason for that not to be in the top ten!

 

[JayKeeley]

OK the RC top 10 lists should be published by 11:30pm EST. Hold tight.

*goes back to formatting web pages*

 

[Nate The Great]

It's past your deadline. Where are they?

I just got 2 CD's today that could be contenders for my list, but I don't think I can give them a fair shake in only a little over a week.

 

[JayKeeley]

Getting there....this shit takes forever. Another 20 minutes. I need some info from NAD and he's nowhere to be found - that little squirt.

 

[Nate The Great]

NAD's still hiding uner his desk after that earthquake . . . and he was 200 miles away. That little pussy . . .
