UM Hall of Fame October 2017 Inductions

[H.P. Lovecraft]

I'm actually taken aback at how much of a UM staple this whole shebang has become, and I can't thank you all enough for keeping blood pulsing through its veins. I'm alternating between listening to Ozzy and Crosby/Nash right now so I keep going from headbanging to melodic humming. Interesting contrast, you should try it. As always, 15 acts, no more, check the museum for extant inductees, change your votes as you will during the open voting session, and we'll ruin the country festival across the street on November 3rd.

You're welcome. We do need to start gunning for Realm at some point.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Yeah I mean Endless War is a better album than almost anything from any band named in this thread but I'm still trying to go for quasi-objectivity. Don't understand how Slaughter and Order from Chaos aren't in, I thought they had in-crowd appeal as well.

 

[CiG]

Why would "in-crowd" appeal be a deciding factor when there's what, like 4 or 5 people who are considered "in-crowd"?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

There were enough of them to make The Chasm qualify for the second round of this game.

 

[CiG]

Many people seem to really like The Chasm.

How many "in-crowders" are there really?

[Phylactery]

There were enough of them to make The Chasm qualify for the second round of this game.

That’s because The Chasm is the best band ever.

But yeah as CIG said, nearly everyone on this forum seems to like The Chasm to some extent. You’re the only person that seems to actively dislike them. And even then you’ve given some of their songs 8-9/10.
