Sweet 16 Results (RC March Metal Madness)

[General Zod]

an 80's tourney might not be too obvious...thrashers vs trads maybe

And the winner is... Maiden.

Zod

 

[Dark One]

What a batch of releases to end this thing. Every single one of those albums is a winner.

 

[skeptik]

Maybe we should restrict certain obvious contenders.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

Wtf? Overrated Weakling album? We're talking about Dead as Dreams right?

what, you haven't gotten used to J.'s completely irrational music opinions yet?

 

[skeptik]

TheGayReceiver has a lot to learn yet.

 

[Dark One]

Hmmm... this Drudkh band is pretty good, I might have to vote for them.

 

[J.]

And the winner is... Maiden.

Zod

metallica, seps, hell even slayer over Gayden

 

[Dark One]

Don't vote for Drudkh, I hear they're NSBM!!!1

Lollerz.

In all seriousness, I hear a softer Moonsorrow in their sound and it's catching me more and more all the time.

 

[skeptik]

Oh yeah, because they have "gay" vocals.

of course, what other overlong fairly boring dead as dreams would i be talking about

classic my anus

 

[Dark One]

The next round will be posted tomorrow morning...Zod

Since there are so few bands involved, why not just post it now?

[Demonspell]

Primordial vs. Agalloch...oh shit me. OK, so I'd vote for The Mantle over anything in this tournament, that one is still going to be an absolute bitch for a lot of people here.

 

[unknown]

I like the idea of thrashers against trads

I think JK want to let people have a chance to BS about the previous round, before jumping ahead immediately.

It's a solid last 8 and interestingly enough, the Drudkh, Enslaved, Primordial, and Agalloch releases might not even be those bands' best efforts.

If we're being honest, Wolves is probably a little lucky to have made it this far.

Negura's getting a lot of votes. I will admit myself, it's an enormous album, mostly off-the-cuff and avante garde, but quite honestly, I probably don't even fully get it yet. I'm still peeling off the layers.

Again though, it's a good last 8, and actually, the only album I don't own in the last 16 is that Color Haze.

Just out of curiosity... why?

[JayKeeley]

I don't think I've ever heard it!!

 

[Demilich]

Uhh..

You've most likely got yourself a PM containing a yousendit link coming at some point this evening.

 

[JayKeeley]
