Well yea, there's good albums on there, it's just that the order is fucked up on those even. Maranatha above NITND? Srsly?
 
The Funebrarum record is the only really good one on there and it's at the bottom of their list. Enough said.
 
Baroness, Mastodon, Funebrarum, and Isis would probably be in my top 20, and Mournful Congregation and Katatonia in my top 10, but the failure to mention things like Everything is Fire, Dialogue with the Stars, or Seven Chalices is indeed gay.
 
anddd once again Decibel proves itself to be worthless to the metal community

I didn't even know Slayer had a new record out
 
Nah, I'm not really that bad. I do love it, and I think people should start giving them the ch...no. EVERYONE LIKE IT RIGHT NAO. CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR KATAKEWL.
