Top 10 Metal Albums of 2016

other than one concerning the in-crowd

And of course it's you who decides when something is or isn't concerning the in-crowd. That's the arbitrary nature I'm speaking to, that there seems to be no clear definition of what it is, so it's heavily reliant on what you think is or isn't in-crowd.

... i've already made it clear who/what is and isn't in-crowd. Dozens of times.

No shit it's arbitrary.

 

[CiG]

Exactly, whimsical nonsense.

 

[Omni]

This one's kind of boring me tbh

I'll forgive you since Malokarpatan is the better of the two bands.

I listened to ten minutes of that album, the drumming was terrible and the riffing a slog. Exactly opposite of Magikarp.

 

[Omni]

It's definitely a different band, but three of the musicians are shared between both bands. That includes the drummer. I found him adequate on both albums, personally.

 

[-CC-]

I love how even though TB has been chill these past few weeks, y'all still are arguing about in-crowds. It's like an itch you just can't seem to scratch.

No one has threatened to knock anyone's teeth out yet tho

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... and no one has went on unrealistic shit talking rants where their asshole has run off of them either.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

What defines the realism of a shit talking rant? High polycount?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Anyway, me threatening to knock your teeth out had nothing to do with arguing about in-crowd. Free dental work, you should take it.

 

[Omni]

Kiss and make up, guys. It's almost Christmas.

 

[CiG]

More like shitmas amirite.

[CiG]

Am I tripping or did we skip 2017? Not that we necessarily have to go in order or anything.

 

[Bloopy]

@CiG Maybe just a search glitch? Thread is here:
