so is Autumn Aurora the offical Overrated Album of Royal Carnage?

 

[JayKeeley]

Wow, Bathory and Mayhem were demolished. I thought it would be tougher than that, at least for Agalloch.

Otherwise, again, no real surprises (for this board).

Ask NAD. He had it at #1 of 2004 and even he's amazed.

Pretty much. There's no real reason it should have gone this far with stuff like "Stormcrowfleet", "Stream From the Heavens", "Goat Horns", "Jormundgand", "Vikingligr Veldi", etc etc out already. I take comfort in the fact that Burzum will pretty much utterly destroy it in the current round.

...and some other albums that are more than 10 minutes old.

Seriously. Even after discovering the greatness that Isis and Meshuggah unleashed upon my being last year, Drudkh is still #1.

But over Megadeth? BAH.
