If it's about instrumental ability, why the fuck is Bill Steer on the list? Carcass and Napalm death are both bog simple. The same objection can be raised for Anderssen. It's obvious that criteria other than 'technical ability' are being applied to this list, in which case the Hoffman brothers are a no-brainer and there's absolutely no reason to the Behemoth, Nile and Necrophagist guitarists on the list.

You can't tell based on notes and sounds and playing who are better musicians and your judgements are terrible and using the simple vs technical thing to judge musicians is worthless.
I agree - thus the suggestion that brilliant musicians (the Hoffman brothers) be included and technicians with no ear for music (Sanders and the dune coon from Necrophagist) be left out.

sanders has a damn good ear for music. even if you don't like nile, listen to his solo project Saurian Meditation, it is excellent.

Anyone who says that Sanders has no ear has obviously never heard Nile.
And speaking of that, the new album is dropkicking my ass through and through, I'd highly recommend it.

I like the Ithyphallic production more.
the more doomy aspects make me like this disk more than AOTW

I'm inclined to agree with you, but I think after a few listens, Ithyphallic will take the forefront. I'm enjoying this much more on the first listen than I did with AotW.

Seriously, I think if I heard that played at a bar or something, I would go fucking insane and just start furiously doing air guitar in the middle of the room.

Hello there
The bar I always go to, The Alley Cat, has a jukebox full of metal and rock. I was playing 2 hours worth of Death, Judas Priest, Maiden, Pink Floyd, Morbid Angel, Black Sabbath and some other random shit my friend picked.
