Round 2 Results (RC March Metal Madness)

Well, when it comes to Terrorizer reviews, the one thing Warning have going for them is that they're British.

Destroyer 666 edging out Isis' "Panopticon"? Didn't realize there was that much D666 love.

They beat Sabbath in last year's tournament, so it doesn't surprise me, although I of course don't agree with the result. The Neurosis loss also surpises me, but the Novembers Doom one is a very good album (I still say they've improved with each one, though I haven't heard Novella yet), and they have that Heathen Crusade boost...not that it helped Vried any.

Is there any promotion of Miskatonic releases?

No. Unless him telling just three close-knit forums of friends about it is called promotion. Or the myspace page, lol.

Same for touring. I would believe them to be self-funded.

Any profit from anything goes directly to the next release.

You have any good reasons why this happens?

Me? No, Im not Rich. Its just very DIY.

I dunno, I prefer it actually. More intimate....in the gay way.

Word of mouth..old school nikkuh.

Immortal got my vote simply because I listen to it more than GC. And that's about all the logic I used in this case. Same applies to Symphony X. The truth is, Disillusion possibly is the better album where V is just waaay too long, but damn, that was the toughest vote.

While I truly enjoy that Disillusion disc, I don't think it holds a candle to V. From the songwriting, to the musicianship, to the lyrics, and of course Russell's amazing voice, V is superior (for me) in every way. That said, the one criticism of V I will accept, is the one you made. While I don't think there are any weak moments on this disc, had they cut the 5 - 7 of the least wonderful moments, the disc as a whole would be stronger.
