Some of these bands/artists I was like what the hell? I voted for Testament but they are getting killed in the results.

Seems like everyone and their mother has some kind of award to give out.

 

[Sole Reaper]

Who picks these bands? And the whole thing about voting once an hour. Why even bother? The whole thing screams of bullshit. I wish Testament the best, but fuck these things, no offense to anyone on these boards either. Oh well, back to my Breaking Bad marathon.

 

[redfly]

yeah many of these things have made themselves worthless
Breaking Bad is awesome!

Alex has recently started to promote this voting on his twitter account, and his position in the best guitarist category has improved a bit (he has now over 9% of votes as compared to less than 6% a couple of days ago).

 

[redfly]

Well if Alex wants it I'll vote.But to make a poll that relies on people coming every hour for a vote is just kind of like "hey come give our website hit's" it's stupid

 

[Sole Reaper]

Fuck it. Just started season 4 of Breaking Bad. This show is addicting as crack (uh, well meth i guess).

I agree, redfly. The results of such polls are totally unreliable. Yet, most of us will try and support Testament anyway (in spite of the fact that there's no way to win with the young metalcore fans, Anthrax is within reach though ). Alex's appeal proves that such contests are of some importance for the bands.

Anyway, I think it's just one of many votings to follow. Hopefully the other ones will be more serious and indicative of the bands' actual class or at least popularity. After all DROE deserves to get more awards than TFOD did.

I'm still not sure how Anthrax is up for a grammy this year when it came out in 11.

LOL!

Didn't they re-release worship music with bonus tracks? I know they were talking about it, but I haven't followed it. If they did, that's probably why.

 

[redfly]

They are going to,but it's not been released yet.Still not excited to buy the whole thing all over again.

Just a reminder - it's the last day of voting. No big chances there, to be honest.

Here's another poll. Few votes have been cast thus far (no multiple voting allowed), so we could help. Just go to this site and scroll down - the poll is to the right.

[redfly]

Wow Testament is gettin killed on the metalpaths poll so far!

 

[Sole Reaper]

I just voted. They are in last place by three votes at this time.

 

[redfly]

That's crazy

 

[Sole Reaper]

Not many people have voted. It's a numbers thing. I had never heard of that site until High Priest had posted that link.

 

[redfly]

I've still never heard of it....

 

[one man]

Here's another one. You can support Testament (and 9 other bands) in the internet voting at BNR Metal Pages. Testament's studio albums have a great history there (all but Demonic made the top 10 in the respective years). Let's hope the new one will reach the #1 it deserves.
