The Albums Project

Drudkh isn't very old or influential but quality is also very important in a list like this. Some influential albums tbh aren't really even that good compared to some later ones

The Spectre Within/No More Color/Blood Fire Death

No sense in arguing... this thread is just eventually gonna stall out and die anyway.

Futile arguments are half the fun.
 
I don't think Autumn Aurora is that great anyway. It really falls off after the first two songs. Blood In Our Wells and Forgotten Legends are much better albums. Blood In Our Wells was held in really high regard the year it came out, and it probably was the best album that year.

The Voice of Steel is much more of a modern classic, but I'm just going to assume that no one here has heard it, and I may stop voting for it soon, because I don't like being a one-man campaign like some people do.

Tales/KEA/Aurora
 
I don't really enjoy Venom much myself and certainly love those albums, but I would like to see some semblance of quasi-objectivity in selecting albums. Right now there are only 36 albums officially entered and 20 more up for debate, yet we're already seeing a lot of double and triple entries. Of course, I voted for the second Metallica, Judas Priest, and Black Sabbath albums featured but I dunno. When Venom, Motorhead, Voivod, Rainbow, Watchtower, Meshuggah, Helloween, Queensryche, etc aren't featured and people are deciding between Killing is My Business and SFSGSW, it just seems silly.

If the double ups are worthy then they deserve to be on the list. Simple. In this case they do deserve to be on the list.

Also, you've voted one point for Coroner - No More Color, now don't get me wrong, i fucking love Coroner (i have all their albums), but to suggest that No More Color is better or more deserving of a position on this list than Killing is My Business or Kill em All is a little silly.
 
At some point, yes, but regarding Megadeth, Agalloch, and maybe others my point is entirely valid.
