RC March Madness '07: Album Nominee Needed

By the way, if it's not something I've heard of (meaning, it's not something that gets discussed a lot around here) having more than one person vote for it will help to ensure it gets included.

Actually Demon, I think if we include multiple requests for certain discs, I think the chances of that disc showing up in Zod's tournament increase dramatically, so if there are any that we've mentioned that you're extremely high on (Agalloch - The Mantle, for example), I'd throw it up. :)

Yeah, I actually did the opposite and purposely left stuff out already mentioned. :erk:

@Doomcifer -- quick question: do you own a real copy of "Mabool"? Much like "The Bastard", or any concept for that matter, the album really demands that you read along with the lyrics / theme, etc. It improves the listening experience from beginning to end.

Unfortunately, I can't escape my own perceptions. For instance... when fotmbm lists " Ondskapt - Draco Sit Mihi Dux", I have no clue what that is. I've never seen Ondskapt spoken about on RC. So, if I have 64 other discs. which I perceive as being more loved by RC, I'll leave it out. However, if two or three other people mention it, it will most likely be included.

Zod
 
Yeah, just go with your gut. I've never heard that Ondskapt either.

Make the final list and offer a preview for all the naysayers before making the draw.
 
Agalloch - The Mantle
Wolves in the Throne Room - Diadem of 12 Stars
Negura Bunget - 'n Crugu Bradului
Drudkh - Blood in OUr Wells
Isis - Panopticon
Deathspell Omega - Si Monumentum Requires, Circumspice
Katatonia - Viva Emptiness
Primordial - The Gathering Wilderness
