Ultimate Metal Hall of Fame November 2016 Inductions

[Elric of Melniboné]

I nominated a bunch of bands that get nominated a lot but never make it in. Some of them aren't my favorites but they probably deserve it by now.

 

[Elric of Melniboné]

What bands on that list do you think that I don't listen to regularly?

 

[Elric of Melniboné]

I own albums by Obituary and Pestilence. They're cool but I probably don't listen to them enough. I nominated them because I know they're worthy of being in and people nominate them a lot.

Deströyer 666 is awesome and I won the mixtape game with one of their songs.

I remember liking the songs that I've heard by Coroner, Watchtower and Dark Angel but I don't own any of their albums. I also nominated these bands because they should probably be in too.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Fuck, no idea how I overlooked Deicide. Coroner deserves to be in, too.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Nah, they're two of my all time favourites. I edited my list and begrudgingly replaced Demilich and Sortilège.

 

[Elric of Melniboné]

Demilich deserve it far more than Rotting Christ, but hey what do I know.

Demilich is more likely to get in than a lot of other bands even without his vote.

 

[Slayed Necros]

They'll be on my list next time.

I rate Nespithe and Thy Mighty Contract fairly evenly, but Rotting Christ also has Satanas Tedeum, Passage to Arcturo, Αποκαθήλωσις, Non Serviam, and Triarchy of the Lost Lovers, all of which I love.

[HamburgerBoy]

Rotting Christ is garbage for closeted melodeath fans

 

[Slayed Necros]

 

[CiG]

Rotting Christ is garbage for closeted melodeath fans

Your brain really is dogshit, how the fuck are the two things related?

 

[no country for old wainds]

the greeks influenced that early melodeath sound quite a bit i reckon, but i like that sound so all's good.

 

[H.P. Lovecraft]
